Chapter 2483
Mr. Royce, should we let Hanwick leave?" Ian asked. After all, it was fake. Ian was afraid people might question if
Hanwick continued to stay.
"Not now. We might still need him." Lawrence's gaze darkened. Nicole had yet to suspect anything, so he felt like
keeping Hanwick around was still necessary.
"Yes, sir." Ian did not dare to interfere with Lawrence's decision.
"Tell Hanwick to lay low these days. I can't protect him if his identity is exposed." Determination flashed in
Lawrence's eyes. If Hanwick's identity raised suspicions, Lawrence could not guarantee his safety as he had to
protect himself.

Lawrence's sight focused outside the car window, his deep gaze revealing nothing about his thoughts as the car
slowly left DillCorp.
The scorching afternoon sunlight made everyone feel drowsy.
After lunch, Nicole leaned against the sofa resting. She was half asleep, unable to distinguish her dream and reality.
There was a string of letters that kept appearing in her mind. Nicole struggled to decipher them.
Snapping her eyes open, Nicole realized it was all a dream."
Whew..." she muttered. "So I was dreaming."
Nicole could not help but dwell on her dream. Those letters left her with a strange sense of familiarity. 'What could

Nicole struggled to figure it out and soon realized she was at a loss. However, that strange feeling from the letters
in her dream lingered.
Unable to work anything out, Nicole rubbed her temples and stood up. She walked over to the window, gazing

"Leave it there," Nicole answered and came over to the desk.

Pressing the intercom button, Nicole called the project manager to her office.
Soon, the project manager rushed in anxiously. "Ms. Riddle."
"What's going on with Project Horizon? Give me the specifics." Nicole's voice carried a hint of coldness.

"Yes, we've had people verify the information," the project manager continued. "Considering the difficulty of their
lawsuit and the negative impact, we prepared to abandon the partnership."
The project manager sighed, feeling it was a pity to abandon the project at this time.
"Let's put this project on hold for now and postpone it," Nicole said firmly. She had a feeling that something was off.
"Understood," the project manager replied and left the office.
