Chapter 3026
As Everett made his exit from Lawrence's office, Ian stepped in, his curiosity piqued.
"Mr. Royce, what's going on?" Ian asked, his eyes following Everett's retreating figure.
Lawrence, displaying a flicker of irritation, explained, "It appears I've thrown a wrench in his schemes,
much to his displeasure."
Ian, taken aback, questioned, "So, he's operating on his own agenda?"
Lawrence snorted derisively, "Did you ever think he's straightforward? A man who doesn't hesitate to
plot against his own kin is anything but simple. If
Frowning slightly, Lawrence added, "Check what he's been up to."
He had a feeling that Everett's visit was more about showing off than anything else.
"I'll get on it right away," Ian responded, quickly setting off to investigate.
After a while, Ian returned and briefed Lawrence on the situation at Riddle Corporation.
"Keep an eye on him," Lawrence ordered, his expression growing darker. Everett's return was not
going to be low-key, and Lawrence wasn't certain about the success rate of his plan.
"Understood, Mr. Royce." With that, Ian departed, leaving Lawrence alone with his contemplations.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLawrence reclined in his chair, his deep eyes flashing with a hint of coldness. 'Everett is shrewd, no
doubt, but he lacks the cooperative spirit I value.'
Prepared for any eventuality, Lawrence was ready to cut ties with Everett if necessary.
Meanwhile, outside, the afternoon sun blazed in the sky.
Post-lunch, Nicole and Lulu made their way back to their office.
"We've dispatched the proposals, yet there's been no feedback. Why is that?
" Lulu expressed her concern, a hint of anxiety in her voice.
Nicole, maintaining her composure, reassured with a calm smile," Patience. We'll get a response when
the time is right." "I know, but it's hard not to worry," Lulu admitted with a sigh.
The unexpected re-emergence of Everett and his covert machinations had undeniably thrown their
routine into disarray. And this disruption was merely the tip of the iceberg; there was no telling what
other schemes Everett might have up his sleeve.
"Don't fret, well figure something out," Nicole said, offering assurance to Lulu.
Lulu, slightly in admiration of Nicole's unflappable demeanor, commented," You always seem so
composed. I really need to take a leaf out of your book." "You’re already doing well," Nicole
encouraged, giving Lulu's shoulder a supportive pat. "Stay resilient. We've got more challenges ahead
than just this one."
Nodding in agreement, Lulu realized the importance of not allowing Everett's actions to derail their
other responsibilities.
Exiting the elevator, Nicole immediately spotted Sean and Steve waiting near her office door.
"Good to see you back," they greeted her.
Approaching them, Nicole gestured towards her office. "Let's discuss this inside."
Seated comfortably in her office, the conversation began promptly.
"We're up to speed about the project mishap. Is there anything we can do to assist?" Steve asked
directly, getting to the heart of the matter.
"There's no immediate need forthat. We’re awaiting further developments," Nicole responded, her smile
conveying ease.
Sean, adopting a more solemn tone, interjected, "This situation with Everett could be entangled with
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLawrence. It's best to proceed with caution."
Nicole acknowledged their concerns with a nod. "Yes, I'm aware of Lawrence's motives. He's looking to
capitalize on Everett's return."
Sean appeared somewhat reassured by her understanding. "It's good to know you're on top of things."
Steve chimed in, "There's talk that Everett has already met with Lawrence. He's certainly not playing it
safe."
Nicole let out a dismissive chuckle. "That's not surprising. Their mutual distrust could actually play to
our advantage. It keeps them both off- balance."
Observing Nicole's well-informed and composed demeanor, Sean concluded, "Seems like you've got
everything under control. We probably don't need to worry about you."
Nicole's response was accompanied by a light-hearted smile. "This is just a small bump in the road."
Steve replied with a hint of humor, "Well, we're here for the ride, especially during the good times."
