"Perhaps," lan muttered, his head drooping. He genuinely didn't know how he'd
been detected, but it seemed a plausible explanation now.
Lawrence sighed and said, "It seems we need to be more cautious in our future
endeavors.”
He was well aware that Jared was not an easy adversary, especially with Zane's
support. Even though Nicole wasn't as physically formidable as before, her other
capabilities remained intact, not to mention her possession of the Fire Crest and
Water Crest.
"Sir, about the matter Everett mentioned..." lan began hesitantly, his unease
palpable, "if he were to reveal it..."
The threat Everett held over Lawrence could severely compromise him if made
public.
"Eliminate the threat. The dead don't talk," Lawrence stated coldly, his eyes
harboring a ruthless glint.
Even though Everett had blackmailed him, Lawrence never intended to spare
him. Those who knew more than they should weren't worth keeping alive.
"Understood," lan responded quietly.
With a final nod to Lawrence, lan turned and exited the room.
Leaning back against the couch, Lawrence's eyes were shadowed with dark
thoughts.
He couldn't fathom how Everett had learned about the past incident, but dwelling
on that wasn't the priority. The secrecy of that matter was paramount; its
exposure would make his future precarious.
Though his past actions had already hurt Nicole, she still regarded him as her
savior, not holding him in complete contempt. However, if the truth were to come
out, the only relationship left between them would be that of irreconcilable
enemies.
The next day dawned bright and sunny.
After breakfast, Nicole and Jared dropped Nolan and Lana off at the kindergarten
and then headed to Riddle Corporation.
As Nicole stepped out of the car, Lulu approached her eagerly, "Nicole, what
brings you here? Didn't Sean suggest you take a few days off?" "I don't find work
tiring, and being here feels like rest during the quiet moments," Nicole replied
with a smile.
"Oh, then let's go up," Lulu responded.
After bidding Jared goodbye, Nicole entered the company building with Lulu.
Once the car was moving again, Jared spoke in a low voice, "After wrapping up
Everett's case, coordinate with Zane to investigate Lawrence." "Understood,"
Max replied respectfully.
