Chapter 2697

It was then that Nicole and Lawrence knew that this might be the last time the two of them could sit together and

converse with one another.

Deciding to mention the days when they were on Crescent Island together before returning to San Joto, Lawrence

looked up at Nicole and said, "Regarding the Fire Crest, I owe you a sincere apology."

Lawrence had always wondered what would have happened if he had told her the truth of the object he wanted her

to acquire. 'Would things have turned out differently than they are now?'

Lawrence had deep regrets in his heart, filled with 'what if s' as he knew that the Fire Crest was the chief reason as

to why they had fallen out of favor with one another.

"It doesn't matter really. To be fair, I don't think you are in the wrong." Nicole smiled.

Nicole, on the other hand, thought it was normal.

Lawrence's reason for keeping the truth of the Fire Crest from her was not entirely unexpected, given the fact that

he knew she was its bearer.

Lawrence then stared at Nicole with a deep sense of longing in his eyes. "It seems that you really have truly

recovered all of your memories. You're back to who you were once again."

"Yeah, I'm quite surprised myself too," Nicole replied before giving him a weak smile.

She herself had not foreseen that she would be able to regain her memories after she had restored her status as

the rightful owner of the Fire Crest.

On top of that, not many knew that she had lost her memory or the fact that she was actively trying to recover

from it.

'Lawrence might've figured out what had happened based on our conversation earlier. He was just trying to test

me,' she thought.

"Regardless of how it happened, I must still congratulate you for regaining your memories." Lawrence smiled as if

he was genuinely happy for her.

"I'm still the same as I was," she calmly replied.

Nicole was genuinely indifferent to the idea that she had recovered from her memory loss, something which

Lawrence knew too.

Lawrence mustered a weak smirk as he attempted to overcome the resentment in his heart. "Have you sorted

things out for the twins?"

"Yeah, all sorted," Nicole replied.

She did not have any intention of explaining the details to Lawrence, to which he understood and nodded along.

"That's good to hear." Lawrence nodded.

He sensed that Nicole was trying to draw a clear line

between the both of them. Therefore, he did not press on any further, knowing it would get him nowhere.

After a while, Lawrence bid his goodbyes and left, with Lulu entering the office right after he had made his exit.

"Why did he come here? Why's he back? Did things not go well in Crescent Island?" Lulu asked with a look of

confusion on her face.

'If things went well back in Crescent Island, he wouldn’t have been back here so soon,' Lulu surmised.

Nicole raised an eyebrow as she stared at Lulu before nodding along. "Point taken.”

Nicole agreed with Lulu. 'It's quite strange now that Lulu has brought it up. If his pursuit of the Water Crest really

went well, everyone would've received some kind of news about it. It's impossible that he'd give up so easily

unless...he has found another way to crack it?'

Nicole lowered her eyes as a flurry of thoughts raced across her mind, and as she stared at her watch, her eyes

narrowed. 'He left for the Water Crest, and he probably might've returned because of it. But what exactly is his next

move? What is it that brings him back here?'

"Christ! Don't get too worried about it. Since things aren't going his way, him coming back here doesn't mean it will

either," Lulu comforted as she eyed the somber look on Nicole's face.
