Chapter 2341
"That's great." Nicole smiled. She did not want to reveal that she had inquired Jared about Mr. Ellison's taste
beforehand.
Nicole heard from Jared who was an old acquaintance of Mr. Ellison. But he stopped all collaboration with Mr. Ellison
because of Harvey. Jared did not want any further ties with Mr. Ellison for personal gain.
However, Jared's cafe at Royal Creek Institute remained open this whole time. Mr. Ellison continued to frequent it
since the coffee was special and unavailable elsewhere.
Nicole did her homework when she decided to visit Mr.
Ellison. She was quite close with him before; the slightest slip might give her away. That was the reason Nicole
brought Lulu along, to cover for her.

with distress. He never imagined Harvey to turn out the way he did.
Mr. Ellison had to cease all collaborations with Jared because of Harvey. With all the horrible things Harvey did to
Nicole, Mr. Ellison thought Nicole would never be willing to see him again.
"I just had tons of things to deal with after I returned. Don't think too much about it," Nicole reassured him. "What's
more, you're not even in charge of Ellison Group now, so there's no need to keep a distance."
"I won't. I'm just glad you're safe and sound!" Mr. Ellison exclaimed.
When Nicole disappeared, Jared announced that he was protecting her by keeping her out of public eyes. However,
Mr. Ellison was still worried about her since there were still rumors circulating about her disappearance.
Mr. Ellison was genuinely happy when Nicole returned safely.
"Alright, enough with the past. I'm here to visit you." Nicole did not want to talk about her five-year disappearance.
She had not recovered her memories, so even though she claimed to visit Mr. Ellison, there was no past to
reminisce. And with Harvey's involvement, Nicole did not want to expose too much about her situation to Mr. Ellison.
Mr. Ellison guessed that Nicole might have been through something difficult, so he did not press further.
Time passed quickly as they sipped coffee and casually discussed past and present school events.
Seeing it was about time to go, Nicole bid her farewell to Mr. Ellison. "We'll leave now and visit you when we have
the chance."
"Sure thing. Come over anytime when you're free," Mr.
Ellison readily agreed. He hoped Nicole could come over more often. After all, he was practically a loner now, and
he sometimes craved company.
"Goodbye, Mr. Ellison," said Lulu.
Nicole had a faint smile. "We're off."

Leaving the cafe, Nicole noticed Mr. Ellison's forlorn figure walking back toward the campus. She frowned and said,"
Mr. Ellison seems to have something on his mind."
"Really? I don't think so.” Lulu glanced over, not noticing anything.
Nicole averted her gaze. Maybe she gave it too much thought. The two then got into the car and headed toward
Riddle Corporation.
They met Mr. Ellison in the afternoon, so surely Harvey had already gotten the news by now. Hopefully, this would
have dispelled his suspicions about Nicole.
At Ellison Group, Harvey did receive the news of Nicole's visit. Slightly shocked, Harvey asked in a grave tone, "What
did they do?"
"They just sat at a cafe across from Royal Creek Institute. They were also accompanied by Ms. Riddle’s assistant,"
Harvey's assistant replied.
"Lulu," Harvey frowned.
