"Benefactor?" Nicole was confused.
Lulu nodded earnestly. "If he hadn't saved you, I wouldn't have been able to see you again."
Slightly taken aback, Nicole smiled at Lulu as a sense of warmth filled in her heart.
They were friends, and Lulu genuinely cared about her.
"Nicole, how did you get by in the last five years? Why did you only come back to us now?" Lulu rested her chin on
her palm as she leaned on Nicole's desk with a puzzled expression.
"Well, I was injured and couldn't come back," Nicole explained lightly, avoiding the terrifying details. She did not
want Lulu to know about those horrifying experiences.

to imagine what kind of danger Nicole had encountered.
Knowing that Lulu genuinely cared about her, Nicole stared at Lulu. Suddenly, she remembered that Sean and
Steve would bring their wives home in a few days. It would be nice to invite Lulu and June as well.
With the thought in mind, Nicole smiled and arched an eyebrow. '"Lulu, we're having a family banquet in a few
days. You should come too."
"Ah?" Lulu was instantly dumbfounded. 'A f-family banquet? Can I even attend that?'
"What's wrong? Don't you want to come?" Nicole raised an eyebrow and teased her. "Even an ugly daughter-in-law
has to meet her parents-in-law, and what's more, you're a gorgeous daughter-in-law."
Lulu blushed instantly, feeling embarrassed. "No, don't say that. It's not like that."
"Not like that?" Nicole was slightly surprised, widening her eyes. "Are you and Spencer still not in a relationship?!"
If that was the case, it would truly be shocking. Nicole thought the two of them should have already progressed
further. How could they still be in the flirting stage?!
Lulu blushed and nodded before shaking her head, leaving Nicole even more confused.
"What's going on?" She thought Lulu was already her future sister-in-law. Did she misunderstand something?
Under Nicole's persistent questioning, Lulu blushed and said shyly, "We're considered a couple, but I don't want it to
go public yet."
"Why?” Nicole was completely surprised. 'So Spencer didn't tell us because of Lulu.'
Lulu bit her lip and looked somewhat ashamed. "I want to work harder and be worthy of him."
Upon hearing this, Nicole was momentarily speechless, feeling a mix of shock and heartache.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLulu genuinely loved Spencer, which was why she had such thoughts.
"You don't need to do this. You're already good enough. Spencer choosing and approving you, is already the
greatest approval you could get. You don't need to feel inferior or put too much pressure on yourself." Nicole
wanted to console Lulu as Lulu should not have such thoughts.
Lulu nodded. "I understand, but I still want to stand by his side with confidence."
She might be more successful if she worked a little harder. Then, she would be more deserving of standing by his
side.
"Why? You're already the Chief Secretary of the Riddle Corporation's chairman. Why would you still feel unworthy to
stand next to a shareholder who doesn't participate in the company's management?" Nicole could not help but
tease her.
"No, it's not because of that. Spencer is already a famous violinist, but his girlfriend is just an unknown person.
That's why I'll always feel some degree of pressure." Lulu smiled innocently. She did not feel wronged. In fact, it
motivated her to move forward.
