Chapter 2321
"Don't worry. It'll be back.’ Mr. Riddle Sr. stood up.
Seeing Mr. Riddle Sr. preparing to go back to his room, the butler asked, "You haven't finished your dinner. Why
don't you eat some more?"
"I'll pass. I have no appetite." Mr. Riddle Sr. sighed.
The butler helped Mr. Riddle Sr. up the stairs and comforted him, "Don't worry, Nicole would never do such a thing.
It must be a coincidence."
"I know she didn't." A thought flashed through Mr. Riddle Sr.' s mind then. It seemed as if Nicole was giving that
person a chance to commit the crime. Perhaps Nicole had already figured something out.
Mr. Riddle Sr.'s decision to have the four families investigate was merely a compromise. The situation happened

the result, the outcome would be accepted collectively. However, Mr. Riddle Sr. still held hope in Nicole, thinking she
might know something.
Meanwhile, Damien and Dillion had already left. Daniel and Dexter were in the courtyard discussing the matter,"
Something doesn't feel right."
"Let the kids handle the matter. We'll talk when the result is out."
"Well, that's all we can do for now."
They both sighed in unison, their mood growing heavier.
"Nicole, you have to help me with this," Ellar begged.
"What?" Nicole blinked, feeling confused. 'What help does he want?'
"About the investigation, duh. It's not like I know anything about it," Ellar said, with depressing and lifeless look.
Sean glanced at Ellar and remarked, "Nicole and I need to avoid suspicion."
"What for? There's no way you two did it. Only fools would take that deed," Ellar quipped. "Whoever did it must
have lost their mind."
Nicole chuckled. "Some things are useless to you, but it doesn't mean it's useless to others."
Although their actions had been a little foolish, that was only if they were caught. It would have been a smart move
if this act went unnoticed.
"What do you mean?" Ellar blinked his eyes, looking puzzled.
"Nothing much. Focus on the investigation." Dexter patted Ellar's shoulder. "But Nicole really can't help you with this
one."
Mr. Riddle Sr. did not include them in the investigation. He even selected Steve, who had no suspicion to investigate
the matter. It showed that Mr. Riddle Sr. wanted to protect Nicole by avoiding any potential suspicion. Since that

the case, they should not involve Nicole, lest they fall into trouble.
"Oh." Ellar lowered his head with a gloomy expression.
"You don't have to do it. You can just copy the information Steve found," Preston's voice suddenly sounded, startling
them.
"Why aren't you gone yet?" Ellar asked as he thought the people from Damien's family had all left a while ago.
Preston rolled his eyes disdainfully at Ellar, saying, "It's none of your business. I didn't come to look for you."
Preston said to Steve, "Hey, I'm counting on you for this."
"What is it?" Steve frowned, an unsettling feeling rising within him.
"The investigation of course," Preston explained. "You know I know nothing about this. Whatever you find out would
be my result too. I just need a copy."
"Scram!" Steve barked. He had no idea how to investigate either.
