Chapter 2860

Noticing that Jared had also gotten up, she asked, "Are you going out?"

"No, I'm not," he replied.

Max should have left the country by now, with the people in San Joto and abroad believing that Jared was no longer

in the country. Thus, he could not make an appearance in public for the time being.

"Why aren't you sleeping then?" Nicole asked, thinking he should get more sleep.

"It's okay now. There are a few things I need to take care of for now," he replied.

Jared then made a beeline for the bathroom but was stopped midway by Nicole, who hugged him around the waist.

Nicole smiled as she looked up at him. "I'm going to work. You will eat well and rest well, okay? I'll be back early

after work."

After giving her a tender smile, he lowered his head to kiss Nicole on the lips.

"Sure." Jared nodded following the lingering morning kiss.

Nicole then rolled her eyes and walked out of the house, her cheeks as red as roses. As for Jared, his eyes were

brimming with tenderness as he watched her recede from view.

The moment Nicole stepped out onto the lawn, the chauffeur immediately pulled up and took Nicole to her office,

into which she entered upon arrival.

"I thought you weren't coming in today." Lulu waltzed in with a cup of coffee and handed it to Nicole.

"Thank you." Nicole took a sip from the cup.

"Have you had your breakfast?" Lulu asked.

"Nope." Nicole shook her head.

She had woken up late, and since she wanted to arrive as soon as possible, she did not eat at home.

"I knew you didn’t, so I've asked the secretary to get you some," Lulu said, frowning.

As expected, Lulu's little thoughtful gesture placed a smile on Nicole's face. "It's good to have you around, you know

that?"

"I'm glad you know that," Lulu said smugly, before sitting down and looking Nicole in the eye. "Did Mr. Johnston

actually travel abroad?"

After looking around her, Nicole lowered her voice and whispered, "No. It's all a ruse."

Surprised, Lulu lowered her voice to a whisper mirroring Nicole's. "I see."

She knew that something was going on, but since the issue pertained to Johnston Group and not Riddle Corporation,

she stopped probing. There was not much she could ask in regard to a problem which did not concern her.

Nicole nodded, opting not to further the discussion. As everything had already been set in motion, all they had to do

now was wait for the outcome to unfold.

"Ah, Damien has been behaving rather strangely too. Usually, he would be at the rendezvous point, but I've seen no

signs of him today. I am not sure if he has discovered something or if his role in the mission has already been

fulfilled," Lulu said to Nicole.

With a frown etched on her face, Nicole asked, "Damien didn't show up today, huh?"

"Yeah, I think there is a problem," Lulu added, though she did not know what had happened exactly.

"Got it. I'll get Patricia to investigate it." Nicole nodded, and proceeded to call Patricia.

And after filling Patricia in on her concerns, she hung up.

She had expected Damien to notice the men she had assigned to surveil him. While he might not know who was

tracking him, he was probably aware that someone had been tailing him at this point.

'Even if that's the case, why would Damien suddenly change his habits?' she wondered. 'Is it because he truly

doesn't care, or is it because he is left with no other choice?'

"Nicole!" Lulu's eyes widened. "Could Damien be trying to escape?"

"Escape?" Nicole mumbled, pondering the possibilities.

As Lulu thought about it, she explained, "You see, Emery's wedding is taking place tomorrow, and everyone in the

Riddle family will be too focused on the ceremony to pay attention to him. This is the perfect opportunity for him to

flee, don't you think?"
