Not long after leaving his wife and Lucianna, Nikolai couldn't help but think about the messages from Ryan, Alexei and Vernan that came one by one in the morning. They buzzed with their discontent and grievance, forced to leave their loved ones at the crack of dawn.
"The lazy little bastards...!"
However, after a stern response, the three of them replied with messages that made him unable to do anything but smile.
[Brother, please, my wife is cold-blooded and needs my body heat in the morning!]
[Boss... my wife said no.... help....]
[On my way, bro!]
On his way to the central compound, his thoughts lingered on the possibility that they might fail, or that Alucard and Dr. Franz might do something that surprises them so much that he has no choice but to ask his father for help.
'Am I just being too nervous?'
Nikolai scratched the side of his head.
Probably.
