Claus was tough enough to expose to the rain the entire night without getting sick. But not Max, who was just a civilian. He might go to the gym occasionally, but he was not resistant enough when getting wet in chilly rain in the middle of the night. So, he caught a cold, unfortunately.

Max ignored Claus, got up, and said quickly into the phone. "Track it down and notify me as soon as you have the results. I'm going to the office now."

He put on his coat and was about to head out. Claus quickly followed, took out the car key, and said to Max, "You are sick and must not drive. I will drive you there." He then went to collect his car.

Max looked at Claus from behind. Instead of stopping Max, he called to alert Jared about the finding.

Jared, who looked bored on the other end of the phone, heard the news and was excited. He had never given up trying to catch Lucifer, who was the only person who caused him massive losses. "Keep an eye on it. Once things in Nottingbrook State are done,

    No one knew how the Dodge Tomahawk was made. Even the Tuman family had only built two, one of which was kept in Mecrounia for research, and no one knew where the other one was.Dino looked in a direction and could not even see the dust and smoke that was left behind by the Dodge. He could not believe that he would see this rare thing here. The best thing about the Dodge Tomahawk was not its speed, but unfortunately, few people in the world knew about it.He opened the door for Jared, and Jared got in the vehicle at once. The vehicle was a low-key, black off-roader with the emblem of a blooming flower. The vehicle's body exuded a sense of classiness.Chloe seemed to want to say something and followed him, but Dino had closed the car door, blocking her view of the inside. Chloe shot a glare at Dino, feeling upset because not even Jared had ever treated her like this, yet his staff was so rude to her.Dino did not give a damn and looked at Chloe with a straight face, his intention cle

    As if remembering what happened back then, a smile crept across Nicole's face. She helped Zeke get down from the bike and then led him forward.Zeke looked at the desert in front of him, not knowing why Nicole had brought him here. Nicole saw his doubts and explained, "We can only go on foot from here onward."She brought Zeke and walked for about five minutes, and a massive white architecture appeared in front of them. The style of the building was superficially similar to that of the castle, but it looked cooler overall, and the shape of it resembled the king of the chess pieces, looking quite imaginative.There were two guards at the gate. When the guards saw them, they held out their hands to stop them from going forward. Nicole took out the red piece of paper and handed it to them with a straight face, then shot Zeke a look, reminding him to do the same. Zeke came to his senses and took the red gilded paper out of his pocket.As soon as the guards saw the paper, they became mo

    Zeke quickly understood what she was going to do; she wanted to dispose of her data.So, he did not bother her, just curiously walked to the side of the electronic screen and carefully lifted a corner of the curtain. Outside, things were becoming lively as a hot blonde beauty stepped onto the stage, and the audience quietened down.As the auctioneer made his opening remark with a smile, Nicole's eyes intercepted the signal between the electronic screen of this box and the auction house. She replaced it with her own computer terminal and disguised it as that of the auction house."Thank you for coming to our Gold Session at the Moon House, where there are only things you can't think of and where there is nothing we can't auction. I wish everyone good luck and happy bidding."There was warm applause from the audience, and all eyes were on stage, waiting for the auction to begin.Zeke was also sitting on the soft couch in the box, looking at the stage. The box next door seemed to hav

    The diamond got so much attention for no other reason than its extreme beauty.The crystal-clear diamond, internally flawless, reflected a pale pink light. Anyone in the know would instantly recognize it at a glance.The blonde looked at the covetous faces of the audience with delight. She raised the auction hammer in the air and proclaimed loudly, "The Moon House has set this pink diamond reserved price at fifty-million dollars."There was an instant uproar. But those who came here are not ordinary people. Most of them were nonchalant at hearing the reserved price. After all, it was a ten-carat, flawless pink diamond, and it had not been named yet. The reserved price could be said to be very fair.Soon someone held up a sign and said, "Fifty-one million."Zeke looked at the beautiful diamond and struggled internally. He was contemplating bidding for it first and asked the old man for money later.Nicole read his expression and asked, "You want it?"Zeke looked at her and hesita

    Jared had delegated the task of selecting auction items to Dino entirely, not expecting Dino to come up with only such an unexciting collection.Dino was standing respectfully to the side. He bowed his head and moved a step backward toward the gold marble behind him as soon as Jared swept his gaze over.Dino had a straight face, but the tip of his nose was trickling with sweat.Jared looked at him with a half-smile, and Dino finally could not help but say,"I'm sorry, Mr. Johnston, the quality of this batch of goods is indeed not up to much. But with the diamond, at least the auction will generate at least one hundred million dollars in revenue. That's why I have positioned this auction as a Gold Session. If it doesn't reach one hundred million, I'm willing to be punished for it."There was a hollow, indifferent look in Jared's eyes when he heard that. His eyes upturned, and he did not look at Dino again but shifted his attention to Box Two. This private box was too close to his p

    The blonde saw the figure on the monitor and announced excitedly, "At ninety million. Ninety million from Box Two."Zeke looked at the figure on the screen and gently frowned. "Lucifer, I'm not going to bid if it goes beyond one hundred million."His highest valuation of this diamond was one hundred million dollars, which he could still get from the old man in his family. Paying anything more than that would not be worth it, and the old man would probably skin him alive.Nicole understood what Zeke meant and could not help but glance at him. She really wanted to look up who his ancestors were, as unlike what she thought, he seemed to be wealthy. Zeke seemed well protected and might be inexperienced in many things, but his keen eye was not something that can be trained in an ordinary family. This diamond was worth one hundred million dollars at most.Nicole nodded at seeing him looking at her nervously. She had wanted to bid for Zeke, and since he had also said so, she happily oblig

    He smiled gently and said to Max, "That won't be necessary. I will ask Karlo." Jared mentioned the name of the army chief of Hustuaburg so casually that Jared seemed to have not the slightest sense of reverence toward him.Max, on the other end of the phone, was silent for a moment and put down his phone as if he had also just thought of this. He then looked back at Claus, who had a helpless look on his vacant face.'Who is Lucifer? Even his partner isn't ordinary.' Max found it incredible. The more he dug, the more shocked he was.Jared had hung up. He looked at the auction floor, but his mind was elsewhere.Pink Diamond had been delivered into Box Three. The blonde's job was done, and she felt at ease. "Next is a bonus session. The auction house will randomly select items we can't evaluate for auction. Everyone can bid for it and may likely get it at a low price."Speaking of this, she motioned with her hand, and the crew behind her came up with a tray that looked different from

    Jared decided to go and meet the people in Box Two for a while.Dino, who was behind Jared, was stupefied. He rarely doubted his own eyes, but this time, he did. "Mr. Johnston?"Everyone in the auction hall rubbed their eyes and looked at the numbers displayed on the massive overhead screen with their mouth agape.'Is this person a fool?'The blonde had also calmed down. Performing an auctioneer's duty, she gently tapped the auction hammer in her hand. "The bidder of Box Two has placed a one-hundred-million-dollar bid for this difficult-to-evaluate item," said the blonde calmly."One hundred million once. One hundred million twice. One hundred million three times. Sold."At the moment when the blonde shouted out "sold," Nicole's bulky computer screen had also completed a scan for all databases, showing a line of Nicole's personal information.Nicole hit "Enter" calmly to delete her personal information before closing the laptop. She lowered her hat as she was prepared to pay and

    "Let's go, it's time to head down. The ceremony will start soon."The group laughed and talked as they left the bridal suite. Jared and his friends, Spencer and Preston, were also guided out by everyone.Now, only the family of four remained in the bridal suite, getting ready for their big entrance."Mommy, it's almost time. Let's get ready," Nolan said, pulling on Nicole's hand.Nicole gently patted Nolan and Lana's cheeks, whispering, "Okay."As she made to stand, Jared extended his hand toward her. Lifting her gaze, she caught Jared in a moment of elegance, his charm unmistakable. A smile bloomed on her face as she placed her hand in his.With a gentle tug, Jared drew her up, his touch tender against her palm.In a swift move, he pulled Nicole into his arms, his other hand circling her waist to pull her close.As Jared looked at Nicole, admiration shimmered in his eyes.

    Nicole laughed off the debate between Lulu and June, saying, "Both are lovely. I'm happy with either."Both sets of jewelry were beautiful, and she felt that either would do."Exactly. Nicole will shine in anything," Cindy said, picking a set. "Let's go with this one."Lulu gave June a victorious look. "Told you this was the one."Cindy then suggested, "Why not wear this for the ceremony and switch for the reception? That way, we use both.""Great idea," June agreed, smiling at Cindy's suggestion.Nicole smiled. "Sounds perfect."With everyone agreeing, the stylist went ahead with preparing Nicole.Lulu watched Nicole, amazed by how calm she seemed. "Aren't you a bit nervous?" she asked. Lulu remembered her own wedding jitters.Nicole bit her lip, a hint of nerves showing. "I'm more excited than anything," she admitted.She had been looking forward to this day, ready to face the future with Jared with hope and joy."Just finished," the stylist announced, stepping back to adm

    "Do you think I don't want to meet someone? I just haven't found the right person," Gary said somewhat resignedly. He had long regarded Nicole as just a friend."Why don't we just try the dates our families set up?" Ryder suggested, calm and collected. He figured since finding someone on his own wasn't working, maybe arranged dates could help. In their circles, it seemed like good matches were meant to be."Arranged dates don't sound great. You hardly know the person. Are we really okay with deciding to spend our lives together like that?" Preston wasn't too keen on the idea."Emery's doing pretty well with it, you know," Ryder said confidently. "I trust our families. They wouldn't set us up with someone terrible. They've probably made sure we'd be a good match."Gary thought it over. "You might be right. Our families aren't just trying to make deals; they want us to be happy."As Gary and Ryder seemed more into the idea, Preston was still unsure. "You guys are serious?""Why not

    Jared held Nicole close and looked at her. "After we get married, we'll move to the estate," he said.Their future home would be just theirs.He thought it was good for Nicole to spend more time with her family since she hadn't been with them for five years. But they knew they would move to the estate later."Okay," Nicole said, nodding. She was happy Jared made the estate close to her family, so she was okay with moving.Jared gently touched her hair and kissed her...****Time flew, and soon it was Nicole and Jared's wedding day.From the morning, San Joto was alive with excitement. Everyone was talking about Jared and Nicole's wedding.Politicians, business leaders, close friends, and business partners all came to wish the couple well.The Riddles were busy welcoming the guests, making everything look amazing."Patricia, hurry up, Charlie's here," Ellar called out as he spotted Charlie. He quickly got Patricia to come and greet him. Max, hearing the fuss, came over too.C

    "You really need to rest. You shouldn't work for the next few days. Stay home and rest. A bride has to look her best," Gloria said, looking at Nicole and making the decision for her."Bride!" Nicole was surprised because she hadn't talked about any wedding yet."Yes, now that everything is settled, it's time for your wedding with Jared," Gloria said, deciding firmly. She used to think it was best for the kids to decide for themselves, but after several delays, she felt waiting longer made no sense. The wedding should happen soon."I was thinking that too," Jared said. They had planned the wedding after solving the Everett problem, but then they found out Lawrence had hurt Nicole in the past, causing more delays. Now, with everything sorted out, they saw no reason to wait. The wedding was the next big step.Nicole looked at Jared and, with a smile, agreed, "Okay." Their wedding had been waiting for five years; it was time, with no need to wait any longer."That's so cool, I'm the f

    Patricia felt a mix of reluctance and happiness as she prepared to part ways with Charlie.Jared glanced at Charlie and said, "It's about time for us to board." He tenderly held Nicole's hand and led her toward the boarding gate."I need to go through the boarding procedures too," Patricia said, biting her lip. "You must find happiness as well.""I will," Charlie assured her with a gentle smile, giving her a reassuring pat on the shoulder. "You've grown up, too. You don't need to cling to me anymore. I believe Ellar will take great care of you."Patricia nodded, then, leaning closer to Charlie, she whispered, 'When Mr. Johnston and Ms. Riddle get married, make sure you bring my future sister-in-law back with you.' Caught off guard, Charlie playfully scolded her, "You little rascal."Doretta, standing not too far away, overheard Patricia's whispered words. Her cheeks turned even redder."Let's go," Patricia announced, then turned to Doretta, adding, "We'll meet again.""Goodbye,

    Lying in bed with Nicole cradled in his arms, Jared whispered gently, "Sleep for a bit.""Mhm." Finally feeling at peace, Nicole smiled slightly, and she quickly fell asleep.As Jared listened to her soft breathing, his eyes softened with affection, and he too closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep.The next morning, as the group got ready to head back to San Joto, Zane and Doretta came to say goodbye."I still have things to finish here, but I promise to be at your wedding," Zane said with a big smile."And I'll be there to wish you well, Nicole," Doretta added.Saying goodbye is always hard, but everyone knew they had their own journeys to continue."Great, we'll see you in San Joto," Nicole said with a bright smile."It's time to go," Zane said, knowing they couldn't wait any longer without risking missing their plane."I've got the paperwork," Patricia said, ready to help with the travel documents for Jared and Nicole. Then, looking at Charlie, she asked, "Need help with

    Nicole was quiet, thinking about everything. 'If I hadn't remembered everything, maybe Lawrence and I could have stayed friends. But after finding out about the airport, it's impossible...'Not only had she regained her memory, but she had also learned about the airport incident. Lawrence had gone to great lengths to prevent her from returning to San Joto."Thanks for saving me before, but you also hurt me. We're even now," Nicole said calmly, looking at Lawrence like he was someone she didn't know anymore.Jared squeezed Nicole's hand gently. "Let's go."They decided to leave the rest to Zane and head back."Wait." Lawrence's voice stopped Nicole. He sounded almost like he was begging. "Please, don't tell Nolan about this."Nicole paused, then said, "I won't tell him. Not for you, but because I don't want Nolan to see how bad people can be."With that, Nicole walked away with Jared.Lawrence sat down, watching her leave, with mixed feelings."Let's go too," Patricia said to C

    "Your robots don't work anymore," a voice said, sounding very pleased. Then, a person came out from behind the crowd, looking pretty proud of himself."Carl!" Nicole was shocked to see him. 'It's Carl!'"It's been a while." Carl smiled and waved at Nicole.Carl had come as soon as Zane told him about the problem. He couldn't just do nothing when Nicole needed help.He didn't expect them to act so soon, which is why he was a little late. But he was still in time to help. Carl was surprised by Lawrence's robots at first, but luckily, the weapons he brought, which he had been working on for years, stopped the robots. This was a big help to everyone."We really need to thank Carl; we would have been in big trouble without him," Zane said, feeling relieved.Zane had asked Carl for help, hoping it would make them more likely to win, but Carl ended up being very important."Thank you," Nicole said with a warm smile. It was nice to see an old friend again."No need to thank me. I'm jus
