Chapter 2950
Nolan remembered what Nicole had said: "If Lawrence needs help, he should just ask us."
He wished Lawrence had asked because he would've been glad to help. But Lawrence
chose not to, maybe because whatever he was doing wasn't good for them, and that's
why he didn't tell them.
Thinking about it made Nolan feel weak. He wished he was stronger so Lawrence wouldn't
have manipulated him.
'I need to work hard to reach my goal,’ Nolan decided.
Nicole smiled a bit and nodded at Jared.
"Let's leave him alone," Jared said quietly.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThey agreed to support Nolan, feeling both sad and proud of his determination.
The house was quiet, everyone else was asleep.
Nicole and Jared went back to their room. Nicole rubbed her temples, feeling a headache
coming on. Jared then gently started massaging her head.
"You seem tired," Jared said, worried.
"I'm okay, just had a busy day," Nicole replied, shaking her head slightly.
After a bit, Nicole patted his hand. "I feel better now."
Stopping the massage, Jared suggested softly, "If you're tired, we should rest."
"Yeah," Nicole agreed quietly, following Jared to bed.
"Don't worry too much. I have someone watching Scorpio," Jared reassured Nicole.
Nicole looked surprised. "You sent someone?"
"It's Pisces," Jared revealed.
Nicole was shocked. "How did Pisces contact Scorpio? And why would Scorpio trust him?"
After what had happened, she thought Scorpio wouldn't trust Pisces anymore.
"Pisces rescued Scorpio after he ran away," Jared explained.
Also, Pisces hadn't been deeply involved in Scorpio's main plans before, so Scorpio
probably didn't suspect him.
And there weren't many trustworthy people around, Scorpio had no choice but to rely on
Pisces.
Nicole nodded, her expression turning serious. "Tell Pisces to be cautious."
Even though Scorpio trusted him for now, it might only be because he had no other
options. Pisces shouldn't rush things, or he might get caught too soon.

sleep."
She lay down, gave him a small smile, then nestled into his arms and closed her eyes,
feeling content.
Watching her, Jared felt affectionate. He kissed her forehead before drifting off to sleep.
Outside, the night was dark, the moon hiding behind clouds.
In an apartment, one unit still had its lights on.
"Scorpio, here are the people you wanted," Pisces announced as he walked into the room,
followed by a few others.
Scorpio glanced around, looking dissatisfied. "Is this everyone?"
