Chapter 2005
It was obvious that Nicole was avoiding him. But the second he thought of how embarrassing the situation was for
her, Jared decided to let it all slide. He wanted to give her some time and space. Otherwise, it would be a pity for
him if his impatience pushed her further away from him.
Soon after, each of the cars left the house one after another, and while Nicole was carpooling with Daniel, she went
on to discuss about Dexter.
It was only right for Nicole to keep the act going.
Furthermore, Dexter and the family were kind. They had a good relationship with Daniel as well.
"Dad, what is your opinion on Uncle Dexter's matter?" Nicole candidly asked.
Daniel shook his head. "Dexter's company has always relied on the head office's support to sustain itself. But
because the head office's position isn't as great as it was before, they'll have to suffer as well."
The both of them had tried their best, and had even considered a multitude of possibilities. In the end, they still
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtagreed that none of Dexter's immediate family members were skilled enough in business management.
"I've done my investigation and it is true that Uncle Dexter lacks awareness of business trends. He does not have
any capable assistants around too. Emery's interest does not lie
in the field of business management; and Ellar has just graduated as well. Even if Ellar is interested, he is
inexperienced and time is definitely needed for him to receive the training he needs," Nicole said as she analyzed
the situation carefully.
Daniel nodded in agreement as what Nicole had said was on point.
"Dad, although Uncle Dexter's company is relying on the head office, they should be able to survive. However, I still
think we should solve the chief issue and tackle it from the management itself," Nicole concluded.
"Yes. After all, it'll be better for them to succeed on their own. They can't operate under the shadow of the head
office forever," Daniel also agreed.
It was not that Daniel was unwilling to help Dexter. Daniel just felt that he should help Dexter and the rest grow and
stand out on their own. After all, it made no sense as to why they would want to be at the sidelines forever.
"Since you've agreed to it, I'll let you talk to Uncle Dexter about this matter. As for the proposal, I'll discuss it with
Sean," Nicole replied solemnly.
Seeing how Nicole could calmly talk about work casually even though she no longer had any of her past memories,
Daniel could not help but feel emotional, "You've worked really hard."
'She has just returned, and she does not know much about any of these things. Yet, she has to shoulder all of these
responsibilities. As your father, I owe you a lot,' he thought.
Nicole shook her head lightly and comforted Daniel, "No, it's just that I was late.'
Previously, when Nicole was assailed and close to losing her life, she did not dare to return because of her kids. If
she knew that there was a family which loved her so immensely here, and that they were suffering from their loss
of her, Nicole would have given herself the courage to return.
"Nicole, your safety is still at risk. You must always be careful." Daniel warned.
And indeed, the entire family could not bear the thought of Nicole getting hurt anymore.
"I will protect myself." Nicole firmed her gaze, swearing that she would protect everyone too.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSoon after, they arrived at the headquarters of the Riddle Corporation, and the car came to a halt.
After the two of them had gotten down from the car, they strode into the building, with Nicole heading straight to
Sean's office.
"What was the final decision?" Sean asked without mincing words.
"I have discussed this with dad and we'd like to hear your opinion on this." Nicole briefly explained.
"Alright, leave it to me." Sean nodded in agreement as he was fully supportive of their decision, no matter what it
would be.
"Okay, I'll return to my office now." Nicole turned around, about to leave.
However, it was then that Sean stopped her. "Hold on."
"Anything else?" Nicole asked in a soft voice.
"It's more of a personal matter." Sean looked at Nicole and his eyes narrowed in seriousness. "What happened to
you and Jared?"
Nicole was taken aback, and knowing that she could not hide it from Sean, she awkwardly replied, "Nothing much.
It's just that I have yet to regain my memories, so I'm still not used to certain things."
