Chapter 2140
"Dad, why don't you let Grandpa be the judge of it." Nicole nodded toward Daniel. She understood Daniel was doing
it for her. However, Nicole had long been aware of the situation, so she did not feel aggrieved.
Receiving Nicole's message, Daniel gritted his teeth and compromised with a sigh. After Nicole finished, the others
shifted their attention to Mr. Riddle Sr., waiting for his decision.
"Dillon, what do you want me to do?" Mr. Riddle Sr. had read all the documents. He still looked calm and composed,
so no one could tell his true thoughts on this matter.
"Dad, Damien has gone too far. Not only did he want to harm me, but he also even wanted to ruin Nicole. If I hadn't

this situation," Dillon said with a look of remorse and anger.
Nicole sneered with a hint of mockery. 'Dillon was quite skilled in shifting the blame to others, attempting to
whitewash himself and put all the blame on Damien. Did he really think everyone else was stupid? The question
was, if this wasn't the information he wanted, he would've never trusted it so easily. He was played by Everett, but
now he's claiming to be framed by him. It was impressive how he could turn the situation around.'
Shifting her gaze to Mr. Riddle Sr., Nicole's eyes had a spark
of amusement. 'It seemed like Grandpa does not fully trust Dillon's words.'
"Dillon, stop your nonsense. I did not harm anyone. Who knows where all your evidence came from? You accused
Nicole before, and now you're accusing me?" Damien looked righteously angry and aggrieved, not admitting to
anything Dillon had said.
"Evidence? No, this is the truth!" Dillon was hitting the ceiling. He did not expect even at this point. Damien could
turn the tables and accuse him instead. He felt that Damien was shameless.
Nicole too was impressed by how Damien could carry on saying all these without a change of expression. With her
eyebrow raised, Nicole looked at Damien in a different light.' No wonder he was able to manipulate things in the
dark. He must have the confidence to distance himself from it, even when the truth comes out.'
A tinge of darkness flickered in Nicole's eyes as she spoke softly, "Uncle Dillon. Since this is the truth, why did you
not report it to the police?"
"These are the skeletons in the closet. I didn't report it for the sake of the Riddle family," Dillon explained. He then
looked at Mr. Riddle Sr. expectantly. "Dad, I only wished for you to be fair."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Hmm," Mr. Riddle Sr. hummed softly, not showing his intent of whether he was going to intervene in this matter or
not.
"Dad. The culprit is already locked up in the police station, admitted everything, and said it had nothing to do with
others. You can’t trust Dillon after just listening to him," Damien said anxiously.
Damien was indeed the person who did it, and his escape route planned ahead. Even if Dillon made a ruckus, he
could not do anything to him. The only thing he did not anticipate was Dillon's decision to tattle to Mr. Riddle Sr.
instead of exposing him by reporting to the police.
If Mr. Riddle Sr. believed him, it would be a disadvantage for Damien and Everett. One word from Mr. Riddle Sr.
would be enough to make them suffer extreme losses in the future. And that was not what Damien wanted to
happen.
"I had no choice then. Do you know how much it cost me to let someone go off the hook?"
