Peril

On the other side, Nicholas was sipping red wine in front of a floor-to-ceiling window while Richard stood behind him.

“Boss, Padma is on their way.”

“Good. I hope everything goes well. Do you think Sophie knows about this? Nothing goes under her nose unnoticed.”

“I’m not sure, I have a bad feeling about this, actually. We should get someone to impersonate Padma to get away from Sophie.” Given Sophie’s wit and hacking ability, the assistant believed she would not just sit idly by if she found out about their plot.

She must have cooked up a counteractive plan.

“You’re right,” Nicholas agreed.

Although this was a feud between Sophie and him, the former had Tristan on her side, which decreased Nicholas’ chances of winning.

Yet, Nicholas thought he should at least give it a shot since Padma was his only solution to the situation.

Despite the clandestine nature of his plan, Sophie might well have figured out what he was up to, but luckily, no one had seen Padma before, so there was no guarantee as to whether Sophie and her friends would get the right person.

In the meantime, Felix and Sean flew to Frosa after Sophie informed them about Padma’s flight and bought them tickets for the same plane,

Once boarded, Sean began observing all the passengers, only to find more than ten bodyguards he suspected to be in Padma’s service.

However, because the bodyguards were dispersed across the plane and did not seem to pay particular attention to anyone, Sean and Felix could not deduce from their actions who Padma was.

“This is going to be a tough one. We don’t even have a photo of this Padma.” Sean remarked, feeling like he had hit a dead end.

Likewise, Felix was also keeping a close eye on everyone. Most of the passengers were people from Frosa and were of similar age.

“You’re right. This is far from easy, but we must find this person. Mr. Tristan and Sophie are at risk here.”
