My Wives Are Too Overpowered-Chapter 104 Suspicious Guys At The Venue

As Nix was nearing the party hall, she saw Linc waving and running at her, only to be hit by someone opening the hall's door from inside.

She would've gone to help her, but then was blocked by a few staff members rushing out from within the hall.

Her gaze fell on them and she noticed that none of them bothered to check up on Linc. They simply went by their ways to do their things.

It felt weird. In any case, Nix went to go check up on Linc.

Walking close to her and helping her get up, Linc immediately hugged Nix and began crying.

"M-M-Master… sniff… sniff…"

Nix didn't understand why she was crying, but she had to distance herself from Linc because he was a guy now. People might misunderstand something.

She took out a handkerchief, handed it to Linc, then broke the hug. "Why are you crying?"

Linc used the handkerchief to blow her nose on it and looking at Nix with her tear-filled eyes, said, "there… sniff… there—"

"Nixie!"

Linc was interrupted by a sweet voice.

Nix turned around when she heard her name and saw it to be her mom, walking towards the hall while holding her dad's hand.

Nix gestured to Linc to go inside the hall at this moment and then went to her parents. 𝚋𝚎𝚍𝚗𝚘𝚟ｅｌ．𝚌ｏ𝚖

"Ma, Pa, we are not on a picnic. Hurry up!" Nix held her mother's hands and rushed to the party hall.

"Slow down, my dear!" Isla said as she pulled David with her.

"No, we're already running late." Nix didn't give any room for negotiations and hurried to the hall.

As the three walked inside, they saw the hall to be full of guests and Nix said in a low tone, "look… we're the last to come."

"Smile, Nixie. People are watching. Pretend that we aren't late." Isla said in a low tone with a smile on her face.

David had a normal expression on his face unlike the mother-daughter duo. He wasn't very bothered even if he was late.

The arrival of Nix and her family caught the attention of Alex's family.

Josh and Janet walked towards these guys and Josh said, "damn David, your habit of being late still hasn't changed."

David sighed and shook his head. "Tell that to Isla there. We got late because of her."

David swiftly shifted all the blame on his wife.

Isla hit David with her elbow and still smiling, said to Janet, "you know how bad traffic is at this hour right, Janet?"

"Haha, I understand. Come, have some refreshments." Janet said and took these guys to a reserved table at the front.

A few minutes later, Alex joined these guys and they chatted for a while over some appetizers and refreshments.

He then politely took his exit and called Nicole and Lucielle to know whether they got their dresses delivered or not.

There was a luxury clothing shop nearby and Alex had sent the hotel staff to fetch some dresses. Although he didn't think they would've bought and delivered it so quickly, he still decided to ask.

To his surprise, Nicole and Lucielle both said they were ready and were on their way back to the party hall.

Alex told them to take their time, but those ladies didn't seem to understand it.

In any case, all was good now.

Alex went backstage and talked with the host to start the event in a few minutes, then went back to the table where his family was, waiting for the commencement of the event.

…..

Outside the party hall.

Nicole had finished dressing up and was on her way towards the hall.

She didn't give Alex a hard time and had asked an agent to bring a dress from her home right at the moment the drinks were spilled.

It was due to this that she got ready faster than Alex had thought.

Once she reached the hall, she took a seat at an empty table at the corner of the hall.

Feeling bored, she sipped on mocktails and looked at the people in the party.

They all seemed normal working folks and nothing out of the ordinary.

She then tried to have a look at Alex's table, but it was quite far from where she was and she couldn't take a peak.

'A pity,' she thought and averted her gaze, only to see someone staring at the front with an odd gaze.

'Hmm?' Nicole felt something off and looked in the direction of the person's gaze.

This guy was looking at the table Alex was in and apparently staring with quite the interest.

The table at which this person was, it was in a spot where people frequently moved around, making him unnoticeable due to their movements.

If Nicole wasn't a well trained officer, she wouldn't have noticed such a thing. Add to that, she was a Blessed too and sensitive to malice.

Nicole pretended she didn't see this guy and focused on her drink.

She brought the glass close to her and before attaching her lips onto it, said, "J, four o'clock, the man with the full white drink."

Nicole then sipped on her drink and put it down, continuing to do her business as if nothing happened.

Her bodyguards around her showed no movements after her command, but Nicole knew her agents had started keeping a watch on this guy.

This man appeared really normal and the only odd thing Nicole could point out while describing him was his drink which he hadn't touched yet. These were really small details, but nothing a fed couldn't see.

A few minutes later, Lucielle walked inside the hall with her daughter. She once again sat at the same table as Nicole, annoying her.

There were a few more empty tables in the hall, but this woman chose to sit with Nicole herself. Something was definitely suspicious about her, but not as much as that man still sneaking glances at Alex.

"You're staring at that man for a while, Miss Nicole." Lucielle pointed out.

Nicole looked at her and said with a kind smile, "that's none of your business, ma'am."

Lucielle chuckled softly at the passive aggressive comment. "A sassy one, aren't you, Director?"

Nicole sighed and said, "can you please focus on your drink and leave me alone?"

Lucielle smiled and didn't do as told. "The guy you're looking at, he's not gonna do anything."

"Hmm?"

"Well—"

"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen! I am your host…"

Nicole and Lucielle's conversation was interrupted by the host on the stage.

The event had begun and the hall became noisy really quick, rendering the two ladies unable to talk.

Like a normal event, the host greeted everyone, then talked about all the good stuff regarding today's event.

This event was the celebration of Alex's achievement. Him becoming the youngest neurosurgeon in history and receiving praises from around the world.

In a world containing super humans, such a thing was a minor accomplishment. But to this small community of normal mortals from the suburbs of Austin, it was quite the achievement.

They were all happy for Alex and cheering for him as the host continued to list down the stuff Alex had done.

Finally, the host called Alex's parents and Alex on stage to have them say a few words.

As Alex became the center of attention of everybody, Nicole became slightly worried and turned to see the man who was staring suspiciously.

She noticed that he was still doing the same thing, but then, Lucielle tapped on Nicole's hand and distracted her.

Nicole was about to be pissed at this woman for interfering with her job, but with Lucielle pointing at a few people from the audience, Nicole's anger subdued.

She noticed that not only that man, but there were a few more suspicious guys in the venue.

A frown formed on Nicole's beautiful face.

An interested look appeared on Lucielle's face as she watched this.

'She seems so worried for Alex. Hmm… is she perhaps…' Lucielle's thoughts drifted to a completely different direction than Nicole's.

Whatever these two ladies were doing in the back, it was not known by anyone in the hall, not even the two Goddesses sitting in the front.

Melissa and Nix were busy watching Alex give out his speech. They were really proud of him and taking pictures of him on stage.

He looked really hot in that formal outfit he was wearing and made them want to take a bite out of him.

The speech lasted for a few minutes and when Alex was done, everyone clapped for him and cheered for his prosperous future.

Then, dancers came out on stage, there was music, and finally, dinner was served at their tables.

It was a small event that was put together just this morning, so it was food first and then drinks.

Those who didn't want food could opt out by going straight to the bar counter at one end of the hall.

Majority of men did that to chat over drinks and the ladies banded together to eat and gossip.

These were all friends and family so there was no awkwardness.

Nicole and Lucielle both had a thought this time.

They had heard of Alex having wives and decided to go see how these women looked.

The two, they got up at the same time, getting wary of each other suddenly.

Nicole shot a look at Lucielle, but then felt not to indulge in a conversation and decided to walk in the direction of Alex's table.

Lucielle too walked in that direction and this made Nicole frown and say, "stop stalking me."
