Chapter 2610
Jared saw Nicole searching through The Hunters and asked, "What are you doing?"
"Lawrence left San Joto and went back to Mecrounia, saying there was something he needed to attend to. But I
have this strange feeling, so I wanted to find out more," Nicole explained.
When Lawrence left, everything seemed peaceful and fine. However, Nicole found his departure too sudden. If he
had no specific reason, he should not have left at this time.
"It's very peaceful over there," Jared said blandly.
Shocked, Nicole looked at him. "You already checked?"
"I've sent some people there, but there hasn't been any news recently," Jared explained. That was why he knew it
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwas peaceful over there, and nothing major happened.
Otherwise, he would have gotten the news.
'I see,' Nicole thought, a hint of understanding crossing her eyes. She chuckled, "Well, that confirms my suspicion
since nothing happened there."
Lawrence did not have anything to attend to, so he left San Joto for other reasons.
"Could it be Everett?" Nicole guessed.
"He probably isn't worth Lawrence's effort," Jared responded.
Nicole thought for a moment and agreed. "You're right."
As the two were chatting, Nicole's account received a message. It was through her secondary account. [There's
something going on with the Water Crest, but the authenticity of this information still needs to be determined.]
Nicole was shocked to read the message. She looked at Jared, confused. She seemed to want his input on the
matter.
"You could check on it," Jared replied solemnly. At this moment, no matter the authenticity of the information, it had
to be confirmed.
Nicole had just retrieved the Fire Crest, and now the Water Crest had emerged. There was a slight possibility that
Lawrence's sudden departure had something to do with this.
"I think it should be confirmed too. But who's the right person for it?" Nicole frowned. Ian staying here was
obviously to monitor their every move. Therefore, Lawrence would know if someone in San Joto made a move.
"It wouldn't be just Lawrence and us who have knowledge of this information. So, if it's true, many others may start
taking action," Jared said seriously.

Nicole raised her eyebrows. 'If our people can't take action, we can secretly arrange for those who aren’t in San
Joto to investigate discreetly. Maybe they could just keep an eye on those individuals who know about the situation.'
"I have an idea." Nicole smiled. In this way, they could
investigate all they wanted without Lawrence getting suspicious of them.
Jared ruffled Nicole's hair affectionately. "So, can we go to bed now then?"
Nicole switched off her laptop and wrapped her arms around Jared's neck. She pouted. "Take me there."
Eyes filled with tenderness, Jared gently carried Nicole to the bed. He set Nicole down and then leaned over her. His
hands supported him on either side of Nicole's body as he gazed down at her.
Nicole looked at him with a coy smile. Her hands wrapped around Jared's neck; she pulled him toward her.
With their lips locked, the temperature in the room started to rise.
The next day, the sun shone brightly. Nicole arrived at the company as usual.
Her assistant appeared somewhat hesitant as she informed, "Mr. Ellison is waiting for you."
Raising an eyebrow, Nicole smirked. "Where is he?"
