"Hehe. It can't be helped as Harvey is always so anxious," Lulu gloated. "He is impatient, so he’s prone to acting
blindly and falling into traps."
Lulu was able to gain some leverage over him precisely because of his impatience. As such, she could act boldly
without worrying that she would spook Harvey and put him on guard. At this moment, Harvey might even still think
that Nicole had taken his bait.
"You have to be careful. If at any point in time Harvey realizes he's been deceived, he won't let you go," Nicole
reminded.
"Don't worry. I'm not only engaging him in a game of 4D chess behind the scenes. I've also collected a bunch of
evidence against him. If things go south, we'll at least be able to defend ourselves with the evidence in hand. He
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtcan't do anything to us. Besides, well be returning everything to Thomas after we're done with him anyway," Lulu
said confidently.
Even if Harvey were to make a fuss, he would not stand to gain anything out of it.
Pleasantly surprised by her strategy, Nicole looked at Lulu with admiration. "You've really improved."
"Hehe!" Lulu chuckled. "You've got to fall over twice to stand up on the third."
If Harvey had not decided to screw with them countless times, they would not have treated him like this. They did
not need to pull any punches to teach Harvey a lesson, since everything they gained would ultimately be returned
to Thomas. With that said, they hoped Harvey would learn to stay in his lane and mind his own business in the
future.
"Alright then. We'll go with your plan. Keep it up," Nicole said.
All she needed to do now was to patiently wait for the results.
"Don't worry, it won’t take too long," Lulu grinned.
After a slight pause, she continued, "By the way, when is Thomas coming back?"
Harvey's assets would be transferred back to Thomas in the end. Thus, he had to be present to sign the necessary
documents during the procedure.
"I'll check with Thomas and have him prepare on his end. If everything goes well over here, we can ask him to
come back for a visit," Nicole said after contemplating for a moment.
"Okay," Lulu agreed.
She only had to focus on her responsibilities as the upcoming affairs were not within her job scope.
After Lulu had walked off, Nicole stopped to think for a moment, and called Thomas.
"How have you been recently?" Nicole asked, her voice filled with concern.
"Yep, I'm all good here," Thomas replied. "Do you need me back there?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNicole hesitated for a moment, after which she beamed and replied, "We can afford to wait a few more days."
"I say, there's no need for the wait. I'm packing already. Once everyone has been settled, I'm ready to go home,"
Thomas explained.
Regardless of what happened, Thomas had to come back. He felt that there was no need to delay any longer, and
that it was better for him to make his return sooner than later.
"That's fine. If you've decided, well respect your wishes," Nicole agreed.
"Well talk when I get back," Thomas said.
"Sure, I'll be there to pick you up from the airport," Nicole said.
While she was hanging up, Nicole bit her lips, knowing that Thomas was feeling conflicted about the situation.
Sure enough, Thomas ended the phone call with a sigh.
"If you're not ready, we can wait a few more days before going back," his caretaker comforted.
Waving his hand, Thomas said, "It's fine. I've decided to go home. We don't have to delay it any longer."
