Chapter 2289
Nicole smiled and shook her head. Then, her gaze fell back on the computer screen. Almost involuntarily, she found
herself opening the Hunters website to check the tasks she had posted.
The people who had accepted the tasks before had not provided any updates, and no one else seemed interested
in taking them on.
Nicole squinted as she looked at the words, "Five Crests".
'What do the Five Great Crests look like?" she wondered.
Meanwhile, after leaving the Riddle Corporation, Lawrence returned to Genesis Group with a sour grimace on his
face.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Mr. Royce. There's no progress. What should we do next?” Ian asked in a low voice.
With Iris’ capture and her imprisonment, she had undoubtedly lost all the value she could possibly provide.
Lawrence had not expected that what could have been a deadly blow to Jared had instead led to heavy losses and a
crushing defeat.
"Jared should not be underestimated!" Lawrence's eyes darkened at once.
Still, he was determined not to give up easily.
Now, all his hopes laid on the electronic crest. Once he obtained it, he would have a powerful ally. By then, even
Jared would not be able to stop him.
"Let go of all the ongoing negotiations," Lawrence said with a calm look.
Hearing this, Ian was shocked, "You want to abandon all of them? Won't that cause even greater losses?"
Lawrence gave Ian a frosty glance in return. "What difference does it make if we don't give up? Jared is intercepting
every company that intends to cooperate with us. Any project that interests him will inevitably be claimed by the
Johnston Group. If we continue like this, we'll be the ones at a disadvantage."
He knew that this was Jared's warning, but he refused to accept it, nonetheless. Though he had lost this time, there
would always be other opportunities.
With that, Ian could only oblige. "Yes, sir."
At this juncture, there really was no other choice but to give up. They could only acknowledge their loss, cut them,
and move on.
Ian turned and left after confirming that Lawrence had nothing for him to do.
As Ian walked off, Lawrence leaned against his seat, his eyes as dark as an abyssal pit. If he could obtain the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmelectronic crest soon, everything would be resolved with great ease. Unfortunately...
Nicole still had not cracked that system. And if she could not do it, would there be anyone else in the world who
could? Would the system be locked forever, thus causing such a tremendous fortune to go to waste?
Time passed quickly, and soon, lunch hour came.
"Are you going out for lunch, or should I bring some back for you?" Lulu peeked in through the door.
"Let's go,” Nicole stood up.
After all, she was feeling a little tired after all the work in the morning and wanted to get some fresh air.
Soon, the two of them left the Riddle Corporation.
"I heard there's a new restaurant with great ambiance. Shall we go there?" Lulu proposed, sounding quite
enthusiastic.
"Sure," Nicole accepted without much concern about what she wanted to eat.
