Chapter 2654
"It is exactly because of this very concern that he needs to use Nolan to achieve what he wants." Jared held Nicole's
hands gently. "At the end of the day, none of us have seen the Water Crest before. No one knows what it looks like
either. The only way he could crack it and not catch your attention is by enlisting Nolan's help."
If Lawrence approached Nicole directly, the outcome would be predictable; Nicole would be able to tell that the
object in question was the Water Crest. In addition to that, Lawrence would have to forego his right to own the
Water Crest, hence he would not risk it.
After hearing Jared's explanation, Nicole nodded. "You're right."
"I'll get Max to verify it." Jared's eyes became frosty.
If that was indeed the truth, Jared would never allow Lawrence within an inch of the Water Crest. For someone as
evil as Lawrence to own the Water Crest would spell unimaginable disaster for everyone else.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAs Jared and Nicole were discussing the issue, they did not realize that Nolan was keeping an eye on them. Although
he appeared to be playing with Lana, Nolan had been eavesdropping, and had heard every single detail of their
conversation.
Nolan nervously bit his lips and balled his knuckle into a fist.
He seemed to be hurt by that exchange.
Meanwhile, at the secret base camp in Mecrounia, Lawrence was glaring at the computer screen after he had
logged off.
"How was it? Did you not make it?" Everett asked impatiently.
"We can't rush it. This needs to be done step by step.” Lawrence rolled his eyes at Everett as he responded.
"Are you sure you have more time? Things have come to this." Everett replied with dissatisfaction.
Hearing that, Lawrence glared at him coldly and said," You're in no position to instruct me on what to do. Besides,
you'd be an idiot to underestimate that little kid. He's not an ordinary five-year-old kid. You'll regret it in the future
for underestimating him now."
"Pfft, how good can he be?" Everett continued doubting his words, though he kept mum thereafter.
After a moment of silence, Lawrence said, "I have my own ways around this issue. You better not ruin it."
"I know, but you should also know that we really do not have much time left," Everett said, whirled around, and left.
Lawrence became furious as he glared at Everett's back. If it was not for the Water Crest, Lawrence would never
have tolerated such behavior. In fact, Lawrence was sure that Nicole was well aware of Everett's whereabouts.
Therefore, Nicole must also be suspicious of Lawrence now.
At this point, it was all or nothing; Lawrence would suffer defeat if he failed to obtain the Water Crest.
After Everett had left the room, all of the humility he had feigned disappeared right off the bat.
"Hmm! If I was eligible to be the bearer of the Water Crest, what makes you think you would ever have the chance
to own it? Just you wait! I'm not someone you can push around. It
Then, Everett headed to his room after he had gathered his thoughts.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSitting there in wait was all he had been doing for the past week. He could not go anywhere else, and if that was
not torturous enough, he still had to put up with Lawrence's antiques on a daily basis.
When is this going to end?' Everett wondered.
Everett was annoyed as all of these thoughts raced across his mind. However, he knew that it would be in his best
interest to tolerate whatever Lawrence threw at him. Once Lawrence, Jared and Nicole had been weakened in their
war with each other, Everett would seize the opportunity to snatch the crest.
The next morning, the sun shone bright and warm.
After breakfast, Nolan and Lana prepared for school. However, Tia did not show up, and as things stood, the kids
would be running late for school.
"Tia will be okay, right? She's never late." Lana mumbled in concern.
"Mom, should we check on Tia?" Nolan began to worry.
Just as Nicole was about to walk over to them, she saw Stanley approaching them.
Seeing this, Nicole could not help but frown. "Stanley, the kids are going to be late. We’ll send them to school now,
but you should know that Tia is not around. I'm not sure if something has happened to her. Can you please check
on her?"
