"Really?" Nicole touched her cheeks. "Do you think so?’ "Not only have you lost weight, but your complexion also
doesn't look healthy either," June added. "We noticed that a long time ago."
However, they figured that Nicole might have been under a ton of pressure as of the recent weeks, and that was
why they decided not to ask her about it any further.
"Don't overwork yourself. Now that I'm back, I can share some of the workload at the company," Lulu advised.
After giving everyone a good look, Nicole smiled and said," Don't worry, I'm fine."
"Don't go around shouldering everything by yourself. If you ever need us, just tell us. Even though we're not
interested in managing the company, we won't ignore you if you need help," Spencer looked at Nicole, his eyes
brimming with sympathy.

have your own stuff to take care of."
"What the heck does Chloe really want?" Lulu asked Nicole.
"She probably wants all the assets of the Riddle family and the entirety of Riddle Corporation." Nicole shrugged.
Having grand ambitions was not a problem. The question was if Chloe was capable enough to pull it off.
"Can she even handle it?" Lulu frowned with doubt written all over her face. "Do you think she's acting on Everett's
instructions? This seems more like his style."
"We're investigating it, but the details are still unclear." Nicole frowned.
"Be careful. I think they are all this together," Lulu said angrily.
"Is there still no news of Everett?" June murmured. "It seems that he's really good at hiding."
"He's definitely with Lawrence now. And guess what? Lawrence has also returned. I think they must be planning
something." Nicole's eyes darkened.
"We don't really know much as of now. Everything is still speculation at this point," she continued.
"In any case, he won't sit still," Lulu grimaced. "But how did he get involved with Lawrence?"
"It's just a matter of mutual interests. People like Everett are not known to do anything that doesn't benefit them
directly. Wasn't it the same when he made a deal with Harvey?" June said, her tone heavy with disdain.
"Anyway, keep your wits about you." Spencer frowned. "And be sure to keep your guard up, especially when dealing
with Lawrence. He was the one who had taken Everett in, so you can't consider him a friend anymore."
Even though he had rescued her before, there were still specific boundaries that were inviolable. Since Lawrence
had crossed that line in the sand, it was clear that they were now on opposing sides.
Nicole bit her lip and nodded. One could say that her relationship with Lawrence had become antagonistic ever
since she reclaimed the Fire Crest.

who seemed tired.
"That's right. We have to get up for work tomorrow," Lulu agreed.
She was planning to get back to work tomorrow.
"Have you had your dinner yet?" Nicole asked Samuel and Spencer.
"Oh, we had it at the hospital together with Stanley already," Spencer replied.
"Okay, you should all go home now. You've all traveled a long way, and it must have been tiring."
They had all been busy for the entire day, and it was time for them to get some proper rest.
As the group left the restaurant, they noticed that Jared's car was parked by the curbside.
Surprised, Nicole strode up to the car. "Why are you here? Have you been waiting for a long time? Why didn't you
come in?"
With a smile on his face, Jared extended his hand. "You're asking too many questions at once. Get in the car, and I'll
explain."
Nicole placed her hand on Jared's palm, and with a gentle pull from him, she got into the car.
The couple drove off, with Spencer and Samuel following suit with their wives.
