Chapter 1342
Harvey smiled. "I didn't say you were dumb.
Nicole rolled her eyes at him, and he quickly took his words back. "I didn't mean it that way."
"By the way, what happened this afternoon? What's so urgent that you couldn't find the time to eat?” Harvey asked as
he drank his coffee.
"Something about my grandpa, and that was why I had to hurry over,” Nicole told Harvey, as it was not something which
she had to hide.
"Oh, so that was why.” Harvey looked at her.
"Speaking of whom, I haven't seen your grandfather in ages. How is he doing?" Harvey asked Nicole as he looked at her

"He's doing pretty well," she replied.
'He rarely goes out now, so it's hard to see him," Harvey said faintly.
'Harvey, do you have something to do here?" Nicole looked at him.
'Oh, nothing much. Since I'm here, I'm just going to see if there's anything to work on. I haven't had a good look of
this place for a while now." Harvey said, not wanting Nicole to go another attack once more.
Thankfully, Nicole was fine today, or else he would not have been able to live with himself.
"Well, please do," she said. "I think there are lots of security concerns here.
I was lucky this morning because I noticed the move and managed to quickly dodge it. If someone else was in my
position, they'd be dealing with life threatening injuries by now!
"And that's why you must beef up the security on the outside," Nicole suggested.
'Yeah, I'm really sorry about everything that had happened this morning. I'll try my best to enforce security as soon
as possible, so that similar incidents won't ever happen again," Harvey guaranteed.
"It's okay. I'm not blaming you. Just giving you a suggestion."
'I know,” he said.
'That scum sure has the guts to come after someone in broad daylight! He even did it in a parking lot. That's
outrageous!" Harvey fumed.
"Nicole, did you piss anyone off?" Harvey asked Nicole, concerned.
"That's not possible! I'm always either here or at... grandma's place. I don't even have the time to talk to strangers."
Nicole explained without mentioning that she would often be at Jared’s place as well.

"That's weird. Why would someone attack you, then? He even resorted to such despicable tactics. If you think about it
logically, the attacker must be someone who hates you with a passion, otherwise, he wouldn't be that cruel to you,"
Harvey explained with utmost seriousness.
"Try recalling if we pissed anyone off in Lanningbourg. Didn't someone follow you up the plane? Perhaps he had an
accomplice." Harvey said, invoking a scary thought.
"Lanningbourg?" Nicole listened to Harvey and began to think about the incidents that had happened abroad.
In Lanningbourg, the only people whom she could have crossed were the people who were opposed to her ideas for the
chip. Still, it would be too far fetched for them to call a hit on her. It was completely unnecessary. They were just
employees, and as such, they had no justification to harbor such passionate hatred for her.
"Probably not. They don't hate me that much, yet. They don't have that much power either," Nicole calmly replied.
"You sure?" Harvey disagreed, as he felt that it was very likely that the incident was tied to someone abroad.
