Though Jared was rejected by Nicole, he still felt really good about himself as he considered that Nicole's sullen look was strangely cute."Haha." Jared let out a sarcastic laugh before letting out a low laugh.Feeling a little hot, Nicole's cheeks became even redder, and her heartbeat quickened.As the cool night breeze blew through her hair, Nicole did not dare to make eye contact with Jared. Nicole was scared to meet his eyes, afraid that she would get lost in them."Tell me about your stay at Crescent Island," Jared requested as he gently combed Nicole's hair.Jared felt regretful he was unable to be by Nicole's side, but he wanted to know how they lived."It's nothing special. I occasionally do my missions, while the rest of my time is spent taking care of Nolan and Lana," Nicole said lightly.Though Nicole said it like it was nothing, Jared knew that it must have been very tough for her to live alone with two children."In the future, it won't be as hard anymore." Jared

"Ms. Riddle, you're finally back. Do you know how much all of us here have been waiting for you to come back?""Yeah! At first, we thought you and Mr. Johnston had almost died during the accident. We were all very worried about you."Nicole watched as people started to swarm around them, moving closer, pushing overwhelming questions of how Nicole was doing and expressing their concerns."Mr. Riddle Sr. has arrived!" one shouted from the crowd.Everyone in the room instantly fell silent. There were rumors going around claiming that Mr. Riddle Sr. was bedridden and had passed on. The news of Mr. Riddle Sr.'s presence had taken everyone aback. Though no one in the room spoke up, deep down they knew the truth.Everyone watched as Mr. Riddle Sr. slowly approached the doors of the banquet hall.'Didn't the rumors say the old man is preparing for his funeral? How can it be? He's here looking fine as ever!'Mr. Riddle Sr. had stopped all his medications, had Nicole do needle techniques

'If he had died earlier, we would've been able to get some of the inheritance. But now he's given everything to Nicole. If he dies now, we'd really be left with nothing. There's no way Nicole would give even a piece of inheritance to us. But as long as he's alive, we might be able to have some inheritance left.'Dillon and Damien looked at each other tacitly, as if they mentally understood everything, despite not mentioning the situation verbally.The banquet was attended by many influential individuals. The members of the Riddle family were busy accommodating it. On the other hand, Mr. Riddle Sr. was surrounded by his friends. Some were envious he had such a filial granddaughter which made Mr. Riddle Sr. even more proud.The Riddle family put their problems aside and focused on socializing.Jared and Nicole were much more relaxed compared to the others. Only the most important individuals were allowed to get close to them. Due to Jared's dominating presence, not many people dared

Apart from Nicole's brother, her past suitors and Lawrence were all depressed at the scene of Jared and her dancing.After the song ended, cheers and applause erupted in the venue. Spotlights focused on Jared and Nicole. Jared hugged Nicole's waist with a perfect ending pose. Under the spotlight, they were enveloped in a halo of light, making them shine.After finishing their dance, Jared and Nicole stood in position, nodded to the surrounding crowd, and left the dance floor."Nicole, I finally get to see you."Just as they stepped off the dance floor, a crowd surrounded Nicole. Nicole's expression stiffened slightly upon their approach. Besides Preston and Ellar, who she had seen before in the Riddle family manor, Nicole had never seen the others. However, judging by their eager expressions, Nicole could feel they were sincerely happy to see her with no bad intentions. It was just that she did not remember any of them and did not know how to react.Sensing Nicole's uneasiness, Ja

"I'm fine," Nicole muttered, shaking her head. "I just didn't think there'd be such a big crowd. I've only interacted with some of the collaboration partners. I didn't even have time to greet their plus-ones.""There's no need for that. You'll meet the people you need to meet at the end," Jared answered. It was unnecessary to meet unimportant people."Who knew that I had so many connections in San Joto? But how many of my enemies showed up today?" Nicole slightly narrowed her brows. No one held any hostility toward her today, not any that she could feel.His eyes darkening, Jared said solemnly, "Don't dwell in the past. From now onwards, you're the Chairman of Riddle Corporation. Just do things as you please. There are no permanent friends or enemies."That one enemy who wanted to take Nicole's life was currently not in San Joto.
