Chapter 2343
"I'm thinking about two companies at Mecrounia and three companies here at San Joto. I’ve already contacted
SmithCore Enterprise, but all the other companies were far from satisfactory. After some consideration, Riddle
Corporation seemed to fit the criteria, so I came to ask you. As for the joint trade..." Lawrence explained his
conception and ideas seriously.
Nicole nodded. "The plan's not bad. I'm sure things would go smoothly at Mecrounia since it's your own place."
After all, Genesis Group's recent projects were not doing well. Lawrence's current choice was suitable for Genesis
Group's development.
"So you're in?" Lawrence was filled with anticipation.
"I'll have to sleep on it. I'll tell you tomorrow." Nicole did not want to accept it immediately. The project proposal was

discuss it with Sean and Steve before promising Lawrence.
For some inexplicable reason, Nicole found herself unable to be as open with Lawrence as she used to be after the
electronic badge incident. A fleeting thought crossed her mind and Nicole's expression stiffened slightly.
The investigation into the electronic badge seemed to have stalled, with no progress at all. The badge system

helped Lawrence decrypt also seemed to hit a dead end.
"What's on your mind?" Lawrence softly questioned, noticing that Nicole was deep in thought.
Nicole snapped out of her thoughts and looked at Lawrence. "Oh, it's nothing. I’ll have Lulu inform Ian about my
decision."
Lawrence was slightly confused as he felt that Nicole's mood was strange. He could not understand the sudden
sense of distance from Nicole. She had always kept her distance from him, but never as distant as today.
'Did something happen without me knowing? I had indeed rarely visited Nicole nowadays after my company was
suppressed by Jared. I had to lead my team and avoid Jared's attention to stay afloat. Only then did I have the time
to meet up with Nicole.'
Recently, Lawrence had carefully analyzed the reasons for his failure. He believed it was because his foundation in
San Joto was not solid. So he wanted to contact his forces in Mecrounia to support Genesis Group. With Nicole
involved, Lawrence was convinced it would be difficult for Jared to control him.
The waiter interrupted to serve their meals. "Excuse me, your dinner is served."
Then, neither of them brought up the previous topic. It was like an unspoken agreement, and Lawrence would wait
for Nicole's decision.
"Let's eat." Nicole's emotions had calmed. She gestured to

Lawrence with a faint smile.
Lawrence chuckled. "You too, I've ordered all your favorites. You should try them."
Nicole nodded.
"How are Nolan and Lana doing lately?" Lawrence asked with concern.
"They're fine." Nicole's demeanor turned soft at the mention of her twins. "Spencer and Samuel are going to get
married, and Lana is clamoring to be the flower girl."
Lawrence raised his eyebrows. "Well, isn't that double the joy? Please congratulate them on my behalf."
"Sure thing," Nicole said.
"Don't forget to send me an invitation when the time comes. I'll come and toast to their happiness." Lawrence
smiled.
"I will."
"Lana could finally get what she wanted." Lawrence's eyes held a hint of fondness. "You should tell Lana that I'll
have someone send the outfits for the flower girl and ring bearer."
"That's not necessary. We'll prepare those," Nicole refused.
