Chapter 3253
"Alright, tell them to be cautious," Nicole advised.
Patricia assured, "Don't worry, they will be." "Nicole, who could those people be?" Lulu frowned slightly, puzzled
about who could be tracking them at this tand for what purpose.
Nicole's eyes narrowed, her voice low, "They are likely Lawrence's men." "Lawrence?" Lulu puzzled. She
wondered, 'What's going on? Why would Lawrence have people tailing Nicole, and what does he want?' "Lulu,
I've only recently cto know about spast incidents. This time..." Nicole paused, her tone turning serious,
"Lawrence helped Everett not just because he needed to use him. Everett had something over him.
That's why he had Everett killed." "He did all that!” Lulu's eyes widened in shock.

"Yes, but he was well-prepared, so in the end, he couldn't be charged," Patricia explained.
Lulu looked at Nicole with a slight frown. "So, what's the deal? Is Lawrence planning to do something to you now
that he knows you figured out he was the one behind Everett's death?" "Not exactly," Nicole sighed, "It's about
an incident that happened a few years ago..."
After Nicole clarified the situation to Lulu, Nicole's expression grew more somber. 'If it weren't for Everett's death,
I might still be unaware that Lawrence was behind it.' "So, when you went back to San Joto years ago, Lawrence
‘rescued’ you from a life-threatening situation that he actually set up himself? That's just beyond messed up!"
Lulu was livid, her face turning pale with rage.
She cursed inwardly, 'It's outrageous! To scare Nicole and keep her from coming back to San Joto, Lawrence
basically put her in danger, making her flee to Crescent Island and disappear for five whole years!"
Nicole nodded gently. "I didn't want to stress you all out with this, so | was planning to keep it to myself. But now
that Lawrence has people openly tailing me, | figured it's better to let you know so you can be extra careful too."
If it hadn't been for the discovery of Lawrence's men following her and Lulu today, she might not have disclosed
this information, knowing it would undoubtedly cause concern among her family and friends.
"Can't we catch him?" Lulu frowned in frustration. 'Now that we know Lawrence is behind this, how can we just
let him off the hook?' "These are information Doretta overheard; we don't have any solid evidence," Nicole said.
Her lips were then pressed together in concern as she thought, ‘That's why | can't do anything about Lawrence
right now; | have to wait.* "Alright, | get it," Lulu sighed. "I'll be cautious coming and going, and I'll give the
others a heads-up too."
Nicole offered a reassuring smile. "And you should try to limit going out withas much as you can." "How is
that even an option? If something happens, | can't just let you go out alone," Lulu insisted. With Lawrence
already going after Nicole, she couldn't stand the idea of Nicole being by herself.
"Don't worry, I'm here. I'll follow you," Patricia said with determination.

She felt it was crucial to be by Nicole's side at all times now, just in case.
"That works, Patricia can accompany me," Nicole agreed, then turned to Lulu, "You stay in the company."
Lulu bit her lip, hesitation mixed with concern in her eyes.
Nicole smiled reassuringly, "Don't worry, | don't need to go out often, and I'll try to stay at the company as much
as possible." "Alright then," Lulu finally conceded, understanding the reasoning behind it.
It was clear that Patricia was better equipped for this task, and bringing Lulu along would only add to the
complexity. In case of an emergency, Patricia would struggle to protect them both, so Lulu staying behind was
the most sensible choice.
"Alright, let's all get back to work," Nicole concluded with a smile, prompting everyone to restheir tasks.
