"Damn it, Nicole!" Chloe gritted her teeth in anger.
Although the butler had not said a thing, she knew for certain that Nicole was involved in this.
"Do you think she did this?" her assistant asked in concern." Do you think it's possible that she knows about the
kidnapping?"
"Hah, even if she knows, what can she do? Running to Grandpa and telling him about it is all she can do. Other than
that, she has no way to get to me." Chloe bragged.
She had been very careful, so much so that even if the truth was revealed, nobody would be able to trace it back to
her. After all, she could not afford to make the same mistake twice.
"But it seems that Mr. Riddle Sr. is furious now. What will you do in the future?" her assistant asked.
Even if Nicole could not do anything to them, their lives from here on out would no longer be smooth sailing,

"I'll think of another way," Chloe said with spite.
She was determined to not let Nicole off the hook, as the latter had severed the one financial pipeline she had.
"What do we do now?" the assistant asked with concern written all over her face.
Chloe shot the assistant a look of displeasure, and grumbled, "You were the one who came up with the idea that we
would succeed if we discovered Nicole's weakness. Look at us now."
"Well..." The assistant paused, feeling somewhat defeated." I didn't expect Stanley to show up."
"You can't even handle Stanley on your own?" Chloe was upset. "What a bunch of useless pricks.'
"Initially, Stanley managed to delay our progress, but the one who had ruined everything was the person who had
turned up unexpectedly," the assistant explained as a solemn expression crossed his face. "They were rather
capable."
"Someone who unexpectedly turned up...as in a passerby?" Chloe, who was a little puzzled, asked. 'Could someone
of such capability just be a casual passerby?'
"We can't be sure. They appeared when it happened, and vanished right after the incident was over," the assistant
explained.
Chloe furrowed her brows. 'A passing stranger with such remarkable skills who disappeared after helping?'
"Are you suspecting something?" the assistant asked upon noticing the weird look on Chloe's face.
"Find a way to figure it out. This issue can't remain unclear and unsolved." Chloe gritted her teeth, unable to help
but feel that something was not quite right.
The assistant agreed at once and nodded. "Okay, I'll
investigate this."
"Wait a minute." Chloe stopped the assistant, "I want you to check on what Nicole has been up to recently."
Since they were not able to seize the two troublemakers, they might as well target Nicole directly.
And although the assistant was taken aback for a moment, he gathered his bearings and left right away.

my money? I could still get it from Nicole.'
And if she succeeded this time, she would not have to be in anyone's shadow ever again.
Meanwhile, Nicole, June, and Lulu were enjoying their lively meal.
"The honeymoon is great in every way, save for the fact that I couldn't have any of my favorite fish and chips," June
sighed. "That's why it's always better to be back home where I belong."
"That's true. I've been craving it too," Lulu said with a smile.
After shooting both of them glances, Nicole responded," Understandable."
The two then exchanged looks and laughed. "But most importantly, we've missed you."
"Stop it. Just eat your fish!" Nicole cringed.
The gales of laughter continued as the group of friends, who had not seen each other in a long time, chatted and
enjoyed themselves.
"Hey, are you guys planning to eat until the restaurant closes?" Samuel's voice blared out as two figures stood next
to their table.
"Oh, you're here." Everyone immediately made room for Samuel and Spencer when they saw them. "Join us."
After sitting down, Samuel and Spencer looked at Nicole and said, "Why do you look like you've lost weight?"
