Chapter 1870
Seeing Nicole’s mood improve, Jared could not help but stretch his hand out and hug her.
Nicole lay in his arms and was at ease. Yet, when she thought of Harvey, she felt inexplicably uneasy. "Harvey’s
acting really strange lately. You better be on alert on your company's side."
Jared took a deep breath. "He's indeed acting very strangely of late."
Nicole raised her eyebrow. "You've never broached the topic of your company with me before."
He knew everything about her, but he had rarely mentioned anything about his company recently.
Jared could see Nicole's concern and said, "The company's fine. There are many people who want to work with the
Riddle family, and the Johnston Group also profited by association."
Nicole knew that Jared only wanted to reassure her, and the whole matter of profiting by association was just a
reassurance.
In fact, the Johnston Group had no need to rely on others at all, but Jared was just being humble.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSeeing that Nicole was still worried, he then said, "Harvey did indeed try to cause some trouble in the past few
days,
but I found out in advance, so his schemes failed. Don't worry."
Nicole nodded "But he most likely won't give up just like that, n
"Yeah, but he had been inconspicuously quiet for the past few days and it's a little strange." Jared was suspicious
too.
Nicole raised an eyebrow. "I wonder what scheme he's concocting now. How about we get someone to keep an eye
on him?"
Jared curled his lips. "Mr. Ellison is still around, so I don't want to alarm him."
If Jared were to keep an eye on Harvey, Mr. Ellison would be the first to be alarmed.
"Also, if you want to catch the snake, you need to beat it whole. Harvey has yet to make any big moves, and even if
I tell Grandpa, he'll just warn him at most..." Jared's eyes were dark, yet brilliant. "And I... like to remove the root of
the problem when I do things..."
Even if he were to suffer losses, he would thoroughly eliminate his foe to feel at ease.
Seeing Jared's scheming look, Nicole knew he had plans ready.
"Fine, as long as he doesn't cause you trouble."
But for some reason, Nicole still felt a little uneasy.
'Harvey's also a very meticulous person. He wouldn't just cause some minor trouble after saying what he did. I'm
just afraid that this is but a smokescreen..."
At this moment, in a secret private room in the Empyrean Hotel...
Harvey was in the main seat, waiting for a guest.
A knock finally rang out on the door as a figure soon walked in.
When Harvey saw the person, he frowned a little. "I didn't expect the person who invited me to be you."
He had received a mysterious email claiming that the author knew about the Riddle family's internal matters. Here
he was wondering who it was, and unexpectedly... it was Everett.
'This young master of the Riddle family seems to be neglected, and he dares to call me out?'
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"I didn't expect to meet you one day too, Mr. Harvey. But now, both of us have a common enemy, so we will be
great partners." Everett got rid of his usual gentle facade as he sat down with a dark look in his eyes.
When Harvey saw Everett like this, he suddenly felt like he was looking at himself.
"So, it seems like you're the two-faced person hidden inside the Riddle family, Mr. Everett."
To hide oneself and put on a docile facade, lying dormant in the family just to get everything he wanted...
Only those of the same kind as him could understand such a feeling.
Everett then smiled. "Ah, so Mr. Harvey, you're the same kind of person as me..."
Harvey looked at Everett, and found the latter particularly charismatic.
"Speak. How do you plan to work with me, and what sort of value are you bringing to the table?" Harvey gave
Everett a chance.
Everett absolutely hated Harvey's haughtiness, but the latter was indeed far more capable than him now.
Moreover, he needed Harvey as a stepping stone to fight against Jared.
Thinking this, he let out a sinister smile. "You've been sparring in the shadows with Jared, but I think you've already
noticed, Mr. Harvey, that Jared Johnston is no pushover. Facing him head-on is definitely not the best idea."
