GoodReadChapter 3165 'But besides those two, who else in San Joto could it be? Could it be Lawrence?’ Everett wondered.
"Did you check on Lawrence?" Everett's eyes were filled with darkness. 'Is this person intending to help me, or oppose me?’ "No, but... it shouldn't be him," Jerry's tone was uncertain, yet he felt that since Lawrence had helped them covertly before, it was unlikely he'd act against them now.
"Check!" Everett suppressed his rage, his words through clenched teeth.

The office was so quiet you could hear a pin drop, with Everett's gaze as cold as if it could swallow the world whole.
An hour later, Jerry returned.
Seeing Everett's nearly out of patience demeanor, Jerry took a deep breath and braced himself. "Sir, it wasn't Lawrence. And there's more..." "What else?" Everett snapped impatiently. "Spit it out!" "While we don't know who did it, it might be related to Nicole.” Jerry lowered his head even further, his voice involuntarily softening.
"What do you mean?" Everett, who had been leaning back in his chair, sat up abruptly at Jerry's words.
"The companies received help from Nicole and have resolved their crisis. So, | suspect that our people were dealt with by Nicole as well." Of course, he hadn't found how Nicole had intervened, but he was certain it was related to her. a "How did she manage it?" Everett's eyes narrowed slightly. The Riddle Corporation, despite its power, couldn't possibly resolve the difficulties of several companies at once, especially since, to his knowledge, Jared hadn't made a move.
It was precisely because Jared hadn't intervened that he doubted Nicole's capability. "What is happening now?" "The crest families," Jerry slowly uttered these four words.
"She..." Everett drew in a sharp breath. He couldn't believe that Nicole had actually mobilized the power of the Crests for the sake of a few companies.

'So, behind Nicole, there was an unknown force that I'm unaware of..." Suddenly, Everett realized something and instructed Jerry, "Check if Nicole still has connections with Zane Spears." "Sir means she used Zane's force?" Jerry's face turned pale, realizing he had overlooked this possibility.
"Can't think of anything else," Everett scoffed coldly.
Nicole was formerly associated with Zane's organization, aiding in solving numerous significant cases. Even if Nicole hadn't returned, Zane likely wouldn't stand by idly regarding her matters.
"I understand." Jerry nodded and then said, "Hexton sent a message saying Doretta was successful." Everett was taken aback, a smirk on his lips as he said, "It seems like fortune favors me." He thought to himself, 'Now that | have Ellar's seal, what does it matter if Nicole saves a few partnering companies? Will she be able to save Ellar in time?* As the sun set, Jared picked up Nicole, ready to head home.
"Did everything go smoothly?" Jared asked quietly.
"Yeah, it's all good," Nicole replied with a slight smile, looking up at Jared.
Gently holding her hand, Jared's smile was tinged with relief.
