Chapter 842
Bradley tasted the strong liquor, and suddenly, a hint of blood spilled from his lips.
Blankly stared at the alcohol in the glass. He smashed it onto the floor, creating a loud “clang” as itshattered, mixing blood with the potent liquor.
Seemingly oblivious, Bradley entered the room, opened a medicine bottle, poured some pills out, andtook it with bottled water. He then threw himself onto the bed, closing his eyes shortly after.

At the motel.
Logan and Esther each opened a bottle of mineral water.
Esther asked, “Did they go to the bar just for a drink?”
Logan and Esther observed that the men at the bar didn’t interact with anyone.
Using binoculars to check the windows opposite, Logan said in a deep voice, “I don’t know.”
In theory, they shouldn’t be doing reconnaissance unless it was necessary.
Logan didn’t ask about Bradley and Esther’s relationship. He wasn’t concerned about his temporarypartner’s past. As long as Esther didn’t affect his work, he wouldn’t say anything, even if she had tenboyfriends in a day.
“Logan, can you tell me about the case we’re investigating?”
Logan glanced at Esther indifferently. “No.”
Esther didn’t press further but sat beside Logan, playing with her phone. Today was Jacob’s birthday,and she was supposed to sing “Happy Birthday” to him. She had to leave upon receiving a last-minutemessage.
She messaged Xara, but there was no reply. She glanced at the time on her phone and began playingwithout waiting for Xara’s response.
Logan looked at Esther leisurely and couldn’t help but feel a headache. He wondered if she was reallysuitable as his partner and if Gabriel was getting senile, just casually assigning such a person to him.
No! Logan suddenly shivered, thinking about how his family had been urging him to get married. Theywouldn’t arrange such a unique blind date, right?
Logan didn’t dislike marriage, but the nature of his work was too dangerous. If he got married, hissignificant other? He couldn’t bring any harm to an innocent person.
Esther was on her phone for a while and felt a bit sleepy. She looked at Logan and said, “I’ll switch withyou in two hours.”
Not trusting a newbie like Esther, Logan coolly refused, “No need. Just sleep.”
Esther looked at Logan and said frankly, “Logan, I know you look down on me, but… since we’repartners now, we should be more honest with each other.”
Logan checked the time on his watch and said, “You can sleep for another hour and 58 minutes.”
Esther was taken aback for a moment before getting into bed. As for having an unfamiliar man in theroom, she didn’t pay any attention to him.
The person who had taught her had said that there was no distinction between men and women duringtasks. Everything was for the mission.
Logan heard Esther’s light breathing after a while. Her sleeping posture was very proper, with foldedhands on her abdomen. However, there was a hint of indescribable sadness on her face.
For the first time in Logan’s life, he felt curious about a woman.novelbin
At that moment, he still didn’t know that when a man became curious about a woman, he wasn’t farfrom falling in love!
