Chapter 1388 Invite Me?


    Moreover, the casino conveniently received a deposit of thirty million into their ount within three


    minutes of the surveince glitches without appearing to face any repercussions or losses. Given this


    situation, the casino had even less motivation to rectify the surveince footage. Furthermore, there


    were several blind spots surrounding the private room they upied.

    "Did you follow Elisa''s suggestion during the investigation?" Gareth''s brows furrowed, and a cold


    expression settled as he listened to Thomas'' report.


    While it was confirmed that Eden had a secretive and elusive identity, making it challenging to trace


    him, Nicole''s whereabouts shouldn''t have been untraceable.


    Thomas observed Gareth''s reaction and hesitated, "Mr. Wickam, I followed Ms. Bt''s instructions,


    but once Nicole and the man apanying her left the casino, there was no evidence of her presence.


    However, Ms. Bt''s suspicion is not without merit. I was thinking... perhaps you could consider a


    more strategic approach?"


    Thomas'' suggestion was met with an intense gaze from Gareth, his eyes narrowed with scrutiny, "Is


    that what you consider a good n?"


    "No, no... Mr. Wickam, it''s just a suggestion. I mean, considering that Ms. Tabor... has feelings for you.


    You don''t have to go to extremes. Just ask her out, have a conversation with her, like Ms. Bt did..."


    Thomas uttered while carefully observing Gareth''s reaction.


    "It''s not about using your charm and good looks to manipte the situation. It''s simply about having a


    casual meeting and conversation. You wouldn''t be risking anything."


    Thomas believed that Elisa handled it well and it was worth taking a cue from her approach.


    However, the gleam in Gareth''s profound eyes intensified at Thomas'' words.


    In an instant, Thomas knew better than to utter another word. Without hesitation, Gareth responded


    sternly, "You have three days to find out if that woman is Nicole. If you fail, you can pack your stuff and


    leave."


    With that, Gareth left Thomas standing alone in the living room.


    Thomas sighed as he observed Gareth''s imposing figure and detached demeanor.


    While Gareth had reservations about employing a charming ploy or meeting Nicole in person, that


    didn''t mean Thomas couldn''t leverage Gareth''s name to extend an invitation.


    Although it meant going against Gareth''s principles, it offered a viable solution. Considering the risks


    involved in both options, why not pursue this feasible course of action?


    Thomas'' mind raced with an idea, and he wasted no time putting it into motion.


    Without dy, he located the hotel where Nicole was staying in Moranta and personally visited her.


    "Mr. May?" Thomas'' abrupt show-up caught Nicole off guard, but thetterposed herself to avoid


    giving anything away.


    Thomas smiled politely, "There''s a barbecue party at Moonlight Coast tonight at 10 o''clock. Mr. Wickam


    personally asked me to extend an invitation to you. I was wondering if you would be avable?"


    Nicole was startled, "Invite me?"


    Deep down, she felt a surge of delight.


    However, doubts began to creep into her mind. Why would Gareth suddenly invite her to a party?


    While Nicole wanted to believe that Gareth''s invitation was sincere, she wasn''t gullible or oblivious.


    Furthermore, recent events had left her feeling somewhat uneasy.


    After a momentary pause, Nicole nced at Thomas. She instinctively inquired, "Is Mr. Wickam looking


    to discuss a business proposition with me?"


    Having dedicated herself to emting Gareth''s sess and being by his side, Nicole was more than


    willing to ept his invitation, hoping it would further her aspirations.
