"He’s put in so much effort, so he's obviously going to do his worst," Nicole snorted.
She knew that Harvey had put on such a grand display to make things difficult for her. A simple ribbon-cutting
ceremony was not all that he wanted.
"Are we just going to let things unfold like this?" Patricia asked in a low voice.
"Since he wants to publicize it, let him go ahead. Free advertising shouldn't be wasted." Nicole's eyes darkened."
Now that we're already working together, let's commence with the next stage of our plan."
"Of course," Patricia eagerly agreed.
She figured that Nicole had her own reasons for working together with Harvey. If anything, Nicole would never let
Harvey keep that smirk on his face. All the measures taken would be temporary.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSoon after, they returned to the headquarters of the Riddle Corporation, and during lunch break, Nicole leaned
back against her couch in her office, lost in thought.
The setting sun was already beginning to set when Nicole and Jared returned to the Riddle residence, which
seemed rather quiet and empty.
"Dad, Mom, why is it just the two of you?" Nicole was puzzled as she looked at Daniel and Gloria. 'Where's Stanley,
Nolan, and Tia?'
"Stanley said he had a last-minute meeting tonight and won't be coming back for dinner. As for Nolan and Lana,
they have returned to their room to play. Now that you're back, let's eat," Gloria explained.
"Oh, okay." Nicole replied, feeling relieved, and followed them into the dining room.
After they had all sat down, Nicole came upon the observation that Daniel and Gloria did not look too good, so she
asked, "What's wrong?"
"We went to pay your Grandpa a visit today," Daniel sighed." He doesn't look too well. He's probably affected by
Chloe's incident."
"Chloe?" Nicole raised her eyebrows slightly. "What's wrong with her now?"
"To be precise, it's Miley," Gloria explained. "Chloe's case is already clear as day, and the fake doctor even admitted
to being bribed. However, Miley suddenly confessed, saying she was the one who had secretly orchestrated
everything, and that Chloe knew nothing about it."
"Grandpa was furious when he found out. But now that Miley has confessed and the fake doctor has admitted that it
was indeed Miley who had bribed him, Chloe is now off the hook. " Daniel shook his head helplessly.
"On a side note, Chloe has been discharged from the hospital," he finished.
"Is that all?" Nicole asked, not the least bit surprised by this outcome.
She had already guessed that Chloe would be fine, but she did not expect Miley to take the blame. But now that she
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmhad heard about it, it seemed that this outcome was natural and expected. She could imagine that this must have
been Damien and Chloe's idea. If their family had to make a scapegoat of someone this time, it could only be Miley.
After all, Miley had lost the support of her own family, leaving her worthless. This was probably the least she could
do for Chloe and Damien.
Since Miley had taken the blame, Chloe would naturally be let off the hook. Still, it was clear that Chloe would not be
able to sit tight.
"Dad, you should go and spend more time with Grandpa these days if you have nothing else to do," Nicole
reminded Daniel.
Although she had guessed that this might be the most probable outcome, it was evident that the people who Chloe
had disappointed once more would likely feel that Chloe should be punished this time.
"I know," Daniel agreed and shot Nicole a glance. "Are you okay?"
Nicole smiled. "I'm fine. In fact, I would really be surprised if Chloe got arrested this time."
After all, she had long suspected that Chloe would find a way to clear her name.
