'There were many people before her who wanted the inheritance too. It would be almost impossible for her to wait

until it was her turn. Who was next in life after me?'

"She can't but there could be someone who is willing to let her have it.1 An icy glint flashed in Nicole's eyes. "James

is not an easy person to deal with."

Nicole was unfamiliar with James, but after the fiasco that had occurred earlier today, Nicole was certain that

James was brilliant in scheming.

'People from the less influential families are not favored by our family as they have no status nor power, but it's a

certainty that James harbors lofty ambitions. It's just that he is much better at hiding it,' Nicole thought.

"I really underestimated that fella." Steve scoffed, having been swayed by Nicole's words.

'Now, with Raine's brilliant mind and abilities, how could she possibly join the working team in the company and

expect to inherit the Riddle Corporation? She's known to be reluctant and powerless. However, with James'

involvement, this has become a serious problem,' Steve pondered.

"For the time being, we can't make any glaring moves, or we'll have to deal with them a little more often than we

want to."

'No matter how thoughtful and scheming they are, they have nothing to do with us as long as they don't step into

the headquarters.'

"Okay. I'll assign some of my folks to get some intel."

'The idea is that everything will be fine as long as Raine and James stay in the other branch office without stepping

foot into HQ,' Steve thought.

Nicole nodded in agreement.

"Okay then, I'll get going." Steve turned around and walked off.

Nicole leaned back against her seat as contempt flashed across her eyes. 'Dillon's company is already filled with so

many problems. They're barely surviving and now, even with Raine in the team, I don't think that she'll have the

skills to improve the situation of their branch,’ Nicole thought, before getting back to work.

Soon it was lunch time, Nicole was still deciding on what to have for lunch before her phone rang, derailing her train

of thought.

It was a call from Lawrence.

"Leo."

"You promised to buy me a meal sometime. Can you fulfill that promise now?" Lawrence said with a smile.

"Are you downstairs?" Nicole asked hesitantly.

She knew that Lawrence would not casually ask her to go out for lunch without an ulterior motive.

Smiling, she replied, "Okay, I'll head down now."

After hanging up, Nicole left her office and headed downstairs.

She had promised Lawrence a while ago that she would treat him to a meal. 'I guess that it's better to fulfill what

I've promised him rather than to stay indebted.'

Soon Nicole arrived downstairs where she saw Lawrence, who was waiting for her.

"What do you want to have?" Nicole asked right off the bat, since she was just doing this to thank him.

"It's up to you, you can decide," Lawrence replied, hoping that Nicole could decide on something that would suit her

taste buds more.

Then, Nicole glanced at the restaurant across the street and said, "Why not go there?"

"Yeah, sure." Lawrence instinctively agreed.

Soon enough, the two of them arrived at the restaurant across the street and picked a spot that was quiet.

After they had ordered their food, Lawrence casually started, "Has it been busy for you recently?"

"It's fine.' Nicole responded politely.

"Nolan accepted some missions again yesterday,” Lawrence said, changing the topic upon noticing that Nicole was

reluctant to talk about work.

Nicole nodded. "Nolan was a little bored so he accepted a small mission to pass time.”

Nicole knew that anything related to Nolan would not get past him. If her code name had any progress, Lawrence

would know. From there, he would be able to monitor them and tell whether Nolan or Nicole had accepted the

mission or not.
