Chapter 1590
"Yeah. Sometimes, I feel like our little sister is more mature than us..."
Even Spencer needed Nicole to take care of him, and that made him feel guilty.
"However, she's still our sister and we've got to protect and give her the very best the world has to offer," Spencer
passionately said.
"Of course." Samuel nodded, not regretting what he had done for Nicole at all.
Nicole, who had already left the infirmary by now, proceeded to dial Sean's number right away.
Concurrently, Sean was having a meeting with his subordinates when his phone suddenly rang.
Everyone there knew how meticulous Sean was in his work and that he would never pick his phone up during a
meeting. In addition, he had gotten even more serious in his work as of recent.
He looked at his phone after a few rings. To their surprise, he gestured for everyone to keep quiet and answered
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthe call by the window.
"Hello? Nicole?" His gentle voice made him look as though he was a completely different man to the one who would
reprimand his employees.
Everyone was confused...
'Who's that person on the phone?
'Could it be Mr. Riddle's girlfriend? I have no idea that he had one.'
However, nobody dared to speak a word as they perked their ears up to listen to their conversation.
Sean heard Nicole's solemn voice from the other side of the phone. "Sean, did you manage to dig up anything
about Norah's parents?"
Sean paused. He had a meeting in the morning, and so, he had left early. That was why he did not tell Nicole about
what he had found out.
"Yeah, but I haven't read the report yet. Do you want me to forward it to you first?" Sean asked in a caring tone of
voice, which left everyone shocked.
"Sure. Thank you so much." Nicole nodded.
She knew that Sean was very busy, so she added a soft," Sorry for disturbing you."
Sean smiled. "Don't talk to me like I’m some stranger."
Their stern-looking boss actually smiled. Everyone there looked at each other in utter disbelief.
'Who's the person on the phone? How did that person manage to make Mr. Riddle smile so gently?' one of the men
thought.
"Okay, thanks Sean. I'll hang up now. Bye." Nicole thanked him and hung up.
As soon as he placed his phone away, he realized that everyone in the conference room was staring at him.
Just like that, his gentle gaze turned into a frown again." What are you looking at? Carry on!"
"Yes, sir!" One of the managers that were reporting to him stood up and continued as if everything that had
happened moments before was nothing but a dream.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMr. Riddle would never be so gentle.'
Tm sure that it was just an illusion!’
Nicole received an email seconds after she had hung up.
Then, she started reading it.
Indeed, Sean had acted very quickly. 'He probably spent a lot of money and leveraged a number of his connections.
He actually found the bodies of Norah's parents too.'
The detailed report showed that Norah and her parents had traveled to an island for vacation some time ago, but
they were caught in a thunderstorm three days into their trip. As a result, their boat was stranded and unable to
return to the shore. For some reason, Norah's parents had insisted on going to the island, and they had even
bought an overpriced boat to sail out. That was how they got into that accident.
Nicole read the final result and that was when her eyes darkened. Her gut feeling was right. She was certain that
there was more to the death of Norah's parents. Otherwise, there was little reason as to why they would suddenly
buy a boat abroad just to go to that island with all that they could afford.
Nicole just could not figure out why they would risk their lives to do that under such terrible weather.
Then, an assumption came to mind.
