Chapter 3020

Returning to the Riddle residence, Jared and Nicole tucked Nolan and Lana into bed before retiring to

their own room.

"You must be tired," Jared said, noticing Nicole's slightly weary expression.

"It’s okay, just a bit sudden," Nicole sighed.

"Let's rest for now," Jared suggested, gently stroking Nicole's hair.

Nicole smiled faintly, took a bath, and then lay down.

Jared kissed her forehead softly, whispering, "Sleep now."

"Aren't you sleeping?" Nicole asked, puzzled.

"I still have some work to finish, but I'll join you soon," Jared replied, patting Nicole's shoulder before

sitting down at the desk.

Nicole looked at Jared, feeling a warm comfort, and closed her eyes to sleep.

The next day was bright and sunny.

After dropping Nicole off at the company, Jared instructed Max, "Drive."

"Mr. Johnston, Everett is currently staying in a hotel. It looks like he doesn't plan to buy property," Max

reported.

"Hmm, he won't stay in San Joto for long," Jared mused, his expression darkening slightly. Everett's

purpose in returning was clearly for the Crests.

"Previously, he collaborated with the Eastern Falcon, but after Scorpio's incident, it seems he couldn't

wait any longer and decided to return himself," Jared thought aloud.

"Of course, Lawrence's involvement is unmistakable. As expected, Lawrence is more cunning."

"Keep an eye on Lawrence's people, and tell them to be even more cautious," Jared ordered with a hint

of coldness in his voice.

Everett, being in the open, was one thing, but Lawrence's presence in the shadows was more

concerning.

"Understood," Max replied, fully grasping Jared's intentions.

In Nicole's office the next day, Lulu asked with concern," How was it going home yesterday? Everything

okay?"

"Everything's fine. Dad went to Grandpa's place early this morning," Nicole replied.

Lulu sighed in relief, "That's good. I was worried everyone might be affected."

"There's definitely an impact, but it seems everyone's handling it okay," Nicole said with a sigh.

Lulu nodded and then hesitantly added, "I don't know what Everett is planning, but we should all be

careful."

Nicole's expression darkened slightly, "He will come looking for us."

"Huh?" Lulu was momentarily taken aback before realizing," You mean Everett will come to us?"

"His appearance at the bidding was purposeful," Nicole said, her tone tinged with coldness.

It seemed that Everett's presence at the bidding was not really about the bidding itself but rather to

make his presence known to her.

Lulu nodded. "That makes sense. He's testing us."

"He wants to see our reaction, to make us lose our composure," Nicole thought.

Her gaze deepened. If Everett was back as a businessman, they would inevitably meet more often,

likely part of Everett's deliberate planning.

Lulu bit her lip in frustration, grinding her teeth, clearly angered by the situation.

"Let's not think about it for now. Go back to work," Nicole comforted Lulu.

Whatever was to come would come, and Nicole wasn't afraid.

"Okay," Lulu sighed, knowing that stewing over it here wouldn't help, and left.

After Lulu left, Nicole took a deep breath and picked up the documents on her desk, immersing herself

in work.

Meanwhile, elsewhere, Everett stood in front of a hotel window, gazing at the outside world, his eyes

deep and thoughtful.

Lawrence, that cunning fox, did he think ignoring him would leave him powerless?
