After briefly biting her lip, Nicole calmly responded, "It's alright, he probably
realized there was no hope and thus abandoned Everett." "So, you mean
Lawrence initially helped Everett but then gave up on him?" Preston surmised.
"Right," Nicole confirmed, giving a brief rundown of the events.
Preston remarked, impressed, "I thought Everett was incredibly skilled to escape
from such an encirclement. It's unbelievable." He had been shocked when he
heard Everett was captured, hardly believing it was real. It turned out Everett's
escape was facilitated by Lawrence's secret assistance.
"Does this mean all of Everett's associates have been rounded up? There
shouldn't be anyone else, right?" Lulu speculated with a slight frown.
She pondered, 'It must be so, especially if even Lawrence has abandoned
Everett. It's unlikely anyone else would assist him now." "Great, finally, everything
is settled," Preston looked around the group.” Should we head back to Grandpa's
place tomorrow?" "I think we should check in,” Spencer suggested.
The others agreed, "Indeed, we should go back."
Even though Benjamin had come to terms with Everett's actions, now that there
was a resolution, everyone felt it was essential to inform Benjamin, or perhaps
their return could also alleviate the weight on his heart.
Having agreed on their plan, everyone departed as it was getting late, and
gradually the house quieted down. It wasn't until everyone else had settled for
the night that Nicole and Jared retreated to their own room.
Observing Nicole's somber expression, Jared gently embraced her, suggesting,
"Maybe this is for the best."
Understanding the weight of Nicole's feelings upon learning about Lawrence's
past actions, Jared empathized with her complex emotions. Yet, he considered it
a positive revelation, as unmasking Lawrence's true nature meant they could
finally move on without any reservations.
"I thought I could overlook his past deeds, considering he once saved my life. But
I never imagined he would harm me to such an extent," Nicole said, her voice
tinged with pain, her lips quivering slightly.
For five years, she was compelled to stay hidden on Crescent Island, avoiding
any public exposure and concealing any trace of her true identity. She feared
recognition would endanger her and her children, Nolan and Lana. She believed
all her sacrifices were for her children's safety, not realizing these decisions
prevented her family from being together.
The irony that the person she believed to be her most helpful benefactor, her
savior, turned out to be the instigator of her sorrows, struck her as absurd.
Jared stroked her back soothingly, filled with compassion. If only he had found
her sooner, perhaps all this pain could have been avoided.

"How did they manage to find Sambawe and rescue him?" Lawrence's eyes
narrowed. He had considered this move but failed to uncover any leads or
determine Sambawe's whereabouts.
"It seems Mr. Johnston was on the case initially, and later Zane took over when
they found a lead. Zane handled everything from there," lan’s voice faded, a hint
of unease in his tone.
