Chapter 2056

In a helpless tone, Lawrence said, "Interstellar is an international company, and its main market isn't here. Besides,

I'm new here, so they want a strong local company from the capital to be involved. It's something like a guarantee."

Nicole nodded upon hearing this. "They have a point."

She bit her lip and pondered for a moment. "Ask Ian to send me the details. I'll talk with my brothers and give you

an answer after we review it."

"Okay." Lawrence smiled and continued, "I thought you would agree right away."

After all, Interstellar International was really good. Besides, Lawrence found that it really suited the development of

the Riddle Company.

"I really don't know much about business, so I'm actually relying on my instincts for everything. That's why I still

prefer to discuss things with my brothers when it comes to important decisions." Nicole did not hide anything from

Lawrence.

Lawrence shook his head and sighed. "Nicole, even though you haven't been back for long, you've changed."

"Changed? Really?" Nicole furrowed her eyebrows as she did not notice it herself.

"You were always alone when you were on the island, not interacting with people or making friends. You just

focused on taking care of Nolan and Lana. Even when it comes to making decisions, you relied entirely on your

instincts and rarely consulted with others," said Lawrence. No one could decide anything for her, including him.

"I had to be cautious on the island. My enemies could come after me, so I obviously had my guard up against

everyone," Nicole replied calmly. She lived like a recluse during that time, but it was just a form of self-protection.

"What about now? You’re even closer to your enemies here. You could bump into them any time, not knowing that

they're your enemies." It was shocking that Nicole would trust the people around her in such a dangerous

environment.

"I have a family now, after all. I have my parents and my brothers. I guess I feel a bit more secure, so I can relax a

little." Nicole shrugged, thinking that it was probably the case.

"If I knew that you'd become like this after reuniting with your family, I would've taken you back here back then."

Lawrence smiled.

Nicole tilted her head ever so slightly. "Why do you say that? You knew my family?"

Lawrence's gaze turned dark for a second. It was a slip of the tongue.

He looked carefully at Nicole before saying calmly, "I didn't know, but I would've helped you find them."

He could not admit the fact that he did not bring her back even though he knew who her family was, even if it was

for her and her children's safety.

She despised deceit, especially sensitive to the matter because of her amnesia. If she found out that Lawrence had

lied to her, she might not ever forgive him.

Noticing Lawrence's hesitation, Nicole squinted. It seemed slightly unnatural. She tried studying him, but she did not

discover anything. Besides, he was right. If she needed help finding her family, he would definitely have helped her.

She was the one who decided not to come back for the sake of her children's safety. She was worried that her

enemies might have their eyes on her children.

"I still feel pretty lucky to have found my family." Nicole's gaze turned gentle.

Lawrence had a conflicted look on his face. When Nicole was willing to share her thoughts with him, it made him

feel like they were back on the island. But he was fully aware that nothing was the same anymore, ever since they

came back here.

"Let's not talk about this anymore. I'll contact you once I've made a decision about Interstellar International." Nicole

chuckled as she realized that she had shared too much personal information when they were initially talking about

work.

Lawrence responded, "Sure, I'll wait for your response then."

"It's a good project. If the collaboration is successful, I'll treat you to a meal as a token of appreciation." Nicole

smiled as she knew that Lawrence was helping her.

After all, Interstellar International had never specifically requested to work with the Riddle Corporation. There were

many capable local companies in San Joto as well.
