Chapter 2650
"It's almost noon. Let’s have lunch together before you go," Harvey stopped Nicole as she was about to leave.
Indifferent to his advances, Nicole shot Harvey a glance and said, "I'm good. Please help yourself."
"You need to eat too,” Harvey said, not disappointed by the rejection as he continued to persuade Nicole.
However, Nicole remained unmoved. She did not want to eat with him, fearing that the very sight of his face might
cause her to experience indigestion.
"I have already made an appointment with your grandfather.
If you’re interested, you can join us," Nicole said before brushing past Harvey and hurrying off.
Harvey grimaced as Nicole disappeared from sight. Only Nicole would come up with such an excuse to avoid having
lunch with him. It seemed that she had made her mind up on giving him a glaring "no."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtStill, Nicole had made her way to Thomas Ellison’s place after leaving.
"Are you here to show off to me?" Thomas looked at Nicole, amused.
"Just here for a meal with you." Nicole shrugged innocently.
In response, Thomas shot Nicole a skeptical look. "Do you believe that yourself?"
"Of course," Nicole retorted.
"Let's be honest. You're using me as an excuse to get rid of Harvey, aren't you?" Thomas replied, having known
Nicole very well.
Nicole smiled. "Sorry, but it's much more convenient that way. I know there are many other ways to get rid of him."
Although Thomas was right, this was definitely not the only solution.
"Hahaha, okay. At least I'm still useful now, and that makes me happy," Thomas laughed.
'These two truly are bitter enemies. I once hoped that the two of them could be together, but now it seems that it's
almost impossible,' he thought.
"You don't have to do this. You don't owe Harvey anything." Nicole furrowed her eyebrows.
It was evident that Thomas was still somewhat cautious about anything related to Harvey. Perhaps he felt that he
was indebted to Harvey because of the past, but Nicole was in no place to comment on their family matters. Still, it
was Thomas who had raised Harvey and gave him everything he could after the latter's parents were killed in the
car crash.
"I'm fine," Thomas smiled.
At this point, it was all water under the bridge, and he did not want to dwell on it. He felt that it would not be too
much of an inconvenience for him to live the rest of his life out this way.
Nicole furrowed her brows a little and looked at Thomas. Ultimately, she chose to remain silent.
If that was how Thomas truly felt, there would be no point in trying to dissuade him any further. However, she could
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmnot help but feel sorry for Thomas.
Not wanting to discuss these unpleasant matters, Nicole changed the subject and chatted with Thomas about other
things, and just like that, the atmosphere became much more light-hearted.
After having lunch with Thomas, Nicole said her goodbyes and left the school.
Watching as Nicole's figure receded from view, Thomas let out a sigh, his gaze darkened.
He understood Nicole's good intentions, but he also knew that there were certain things that were best left
undisturbed. He now felt that things were okay as they were. If he were to step into the equation and tip the scales,
he did not know what the outcome would be.
'Oh well, this is it for me. But I also have no intention of getting involved in Nicole and Harvey’s issues. I'll just let the
two of them handle them on their own,' he concluded.
After all, it was Harvey who had started the fight with Nicole first. Besides, there would be no stopping him once he
had made his mind up on something. It was better for him to learn his lesson from Nicole. Perhaps then, there
would still be hope for him to change his ways.
After Nicole had gotten into the car, Patricia placed her phone away and calmly said, "Ms. Riddle, as expected, the
internet is abuzz with news about the ribbon-cutting ceremony."
