Nicole looked up at Lulu before flashing her a wicked smirk. She did not want Lulu to be concerned about the Water

Crest, let alone know that Lawrence was searching for it.

"It's nothing. Don't worry about it. By the way, there is something you should know. The more silent Harvey is, the

more things he has up his sleeve. You have to be alert at all times," Nicole reminded.

"Yes! I will keep my eyes glued onto him," Lulu said.

Lulu knew that Nicole had a million other things to deal with and among them, Harvey was nothing but a nuisance.

She did not want Nicole to waste her time dealing with him and putting up with his crap.

Nicole smiled as she stood up and walked to her desk, and that was when Lulu knew that it was her cue to leave

Nicole's office.

Meanwhile, Lawrence had just gotten into his car after walking out of the headquarters of Riddle Corporation.

"Mr. Royce, how are things with Nicole? Can she be of any help to you?" Ian asked.

Lawrence shook his head. "She won't be able to help me on this, so I didn't even manage to bring it up."

Lawrence knew that even if he were to bring this up to Nicole, she would not be able to help him out.

"What should we do now? If she can't help us, who will be able to?" Ian asked.

Other than Nicole herself, both Lawrence and Ian could not think of any other individual on this planet who could

help them unlock the Water Crest.

"Let's think of something." Lawrence sighed.

He had come this far, so he could not give up now, at least not yet.

"There is...,' Ian paused as he looked at Lawrence with anxiety brimming in his eyes.

"Mr. Royce, I must inform you that someone was there to stop me from kidnapping the twins," Ian stammered.

"What do you mean?" Lawrence asked as his eyes narrowed. 'Who would dare to get in my way?'

"I couldn't find any useful information about that person. Every time I tried, I would end up in a dead end. It was as

if someone had deliberately altered all the info about him," Ian explained.

Lawrence immediately had a hunch that it was all Nicole's doing. "Forget about it. Don't look further into this

anymore."

Then, it struck him that this was probably why Nicole had drawn the line today when he asked her about the twins.

At that moment, everything began to make sense to him.

'There's no use trying to look into this anymore. We're aware that Jared Johnston might be the one behind all of this.

It's all good as long as the twins are safe and sound. Looking too deep into this will not benefit me in any sort of

way,' Lawrence thought.

"Just drive," Lawrence ordered.

Then, Lawrence sighed as he leaned back against his seat. He looked out the car window, spaced out as he knew

that his friendship with Nicole was becoming strained.

'I have to do something about it...,' he thought.

Once the sun began setting on the horizon, Nicole got off work and gazed off at the crimson star in the distance

with a smile on her face.

Upon noticing that Jared had already arrived, she rushed up to him and brought herself into Jared's arms.

"Have you waited for a long time?"

"No," Jared replied as he led Nicole to the car.

"Let's go home after we have picked the twins up. Mom has informed us that Stanley has been discharged from the

hospital, and that everyone's going to be there," Nicole said after sitting down.

Nicole could already imagine how lively the house would be with everyone present at home for the family

gathering.

Jared nodded and ordered Max to drive. After they had picked the twins up from preschool, the family of four

headed to the Riddle residence together.
