Chapter 2038

Author: Summer
"Mr. Walker, you may leave now. I'll get my secretary to give you an office. Do get some rest." Everett came inside and said in a seemingly kind manner.

However, his eyes were completely void of emotions.

"Sure," Mr. Walker said and exited the room.

"What's wrong?" Damien curiously asked, as he could tell that Everett was deliberately driving him away.

"Dad, it's not necessary for him to know our next course of action. After all, he has been kicked out, and might have been turned into a bait to lure us," Everett replied.

His identity had been exposed, yet he still came crawling back to them. It was hard to believe that Nicole would not send someone over to track them, so Everett figured that Mr. Walker had become someone they had to be careful of. They could not trust him anymore.

Upon hearing that, Damien realized what was happening and nodded in agreement. "You're right. We can't let him know about anything important."

    Thus, Jared was led to believe that those people were not from San Joto, but rather they were folks based in other countries, who would also like to see Nicole dead. Other than the organization that they had dismantled, he could not think of anybody else.He had not managed to discover anything about them yet, so the only thing he could do was to keep her safe while quietly searching for clues.Nicole shot Jared a glance, as she felt as though he was not taking it seriously, making her feel conflicted. 'Is he not concerned at all?'The car came to a halt when they were still in the midst of the conversation, snapping Nicole out of her thoughts.She looked outside the window and there, she saw an elegant courtyard located just outside.This confused her. "What is this place?""You'll know once we're inside." Jared grabbed Nicole's hand and led her out of the car.They ambled through a stone path into the courtyard while enjoying the fragrant scent along the way. Nicole observed t

    After a while, Martin looked at Nicole and said, "You tried to treat yourself.""I've seen some doctors and I've tried to do it myself too."Even though she had no idea how she knew about medicine, she was very well aware that she had some capabilities in that field."Even Ghost Hand could not cure this. It is indeed difficult to deal with. I've recorded your condition and I'll start studying it later," Martin replied, not sounding very surprised by his inability to cure Nicole.He had already expected this when Jared informed him about Nicole's condition, but he agreed to help her out anyway. Perhaps he believed that he would eventually find a solution by working together with Nicole.After all, he had high hopes in Nicole's capabilities as Ghost Hand, along with the knowledge he had gathered from working in the field for so many years."Sure," Nicole said without hesitating.Even though she could not remember who Martin was, she still trusted Jared. The Riddle family had hidde

    'What Jared said makes sense,' Nicole thought to herself as she accepted the reality of the situation and followed Jared into the restaurant.The restaurant's ambience instantly relaxed Nicole as she allowed herself to sink into the atmosphere.As soon as Jared sat down, he heard someone calling out to him in a tone of surprise."Mr. Johnston!"Soon, an attractive looking woman stood before them. Jared shot her a glance before taking a look at the menu and handing it to Nicole."Order whatever you feel like eating. The dishes here should fit your palate," Jared said.Nicole flipped through the menu, though she could not keep her mind from wandering off to the thought of the woman she had just met. 'Who is the girl? It seems that they are pretty close to each other, but she isn't in his list of contacts. There's no reason as to why that is, unless she's not important.'"Mr. Johnston, who is this?" the woman asked, noticing that Jared seemed to be really concerned about the woman

    "That's just your opinion."Nicole's cheeks flushed a deep shade of red, unable to muster an appropriate response to Jared's words. She was afraid that he would continue to tease her.Nicole had noticed the stare of the woman when her eyes were on Jared, inferring that they did not share an ordinary superior and subordinate relationship. Nicole was uncomfortable about it, and that was why she had brought it up to question. However, Nicole did not anticipate that Jared would laugh at her and accuse her of being jealous, a charge which had left her feeling embarrassed.'Perhaps I'll be able to validate the truth of our relationship the day I recover my memories, but then again, I don't really care about these things. Until then, I can help him lessen his number of admirers,' Nicole thought.Jared, on the other hand, was in a good mood even after dinner was over.'Though Nicole did not directly admit that she was jealous, I can see that she still has feelings for me. So far so good.

    Nicole watched as Jared brought Lana upstairs in his arms. She bit her lip before following them up from behind.After everyone had left, Gloria sighed and worriedly asked, "Will Nolan be alright?""No," Daniel comforted. "But he'll eventually realize that it is best to have both of his parents together."Gloria nodded a little, not expecting Nolan to have such strong feelings of rejection toward Jared."Let's not think about it anymore. Let's go to bed," Daniel suggested."Okay, let's go."Daniel and Gloria then went upstairs to get their rest. The once lively atmosphere had suddenly become gloomy. Daniel had noticed that Gloria was upset, and that was why he had changed the subject in an attempt to calm her down.The next day, the sun shone bright and high in the sky. The members of the Riddle family were awake and had gathered in the dining room for breakfast. Nolan seemed to be feeling much better too, which was a relief for Gloria.After breakfast was over, both Nicole and

    Jared had not paid any attention to the incident outside of the building and had walked in the meeting room fully prepared.At the Riddle Corporation however, Nicole was leaning against her office chair, staring at the door where the secretary once stood. She bit her lip as she recalled the incident involving the secretary from the night before.Nicole was certain that her instincts were on point, as all it had taken her was one look to discover that the secretary's intentions toward Jared were devious. 'Or…perhaps Jared already knew about it…'Nicole was feeling disturbed as she attempted to piece all that was running through her head.But it was then that her phone rang, interrupting her train of thought. It was Lawrence.Seeing this, Nicole answered the call. "Leo.""Mom, it's me," Nolan greeted over the phone."Nolan!" Nicole was bewildered. 'How can Nolan call me on Lawrence's phone?'"Mom, my tummy hurts so I've asked godfather to get me. You can come pick me up at the re

    Lawrence was also unwilling to see Nolan go, but when he remembered that they had made a promise with one another. Lawrence spoke up. "Why not let him play for a while to his heart's content, I mean, since we're already here, we can go for lunch too; I've already made reservations. If he can't go, it'll just be the two of us."Lawrence's sudden statement caused Nicole to hesitate. 'In situations like these, especially if he and I were to go out for a meal, it would be best for Nolan to be there.'"Alright then." Nicole agreed in defeat."Yay!" Nolan cheered, instantly looking happier.Nicole shook her head and issued a soft sigh before walking alongside Lawrence to bring Nolan back to the amusement park again."He hasn't looked this happy in such a long time." Lawrence sighed as he saw the look of joy on Nolan's face."Before this, all I ever wanted to do was to protect them. I didn't want to put them in danger. However, what I didn't consider was that Nolan would go behind my ba

    "Mommy, godfather. Let's dig in." Nolan said before he began scarfing down his food.Nicole watched as Nolan devoured his food. She couldn't help but to tell him to slow down.Nolan, who was too busy indulging his food, nodded in agreement, mumbling a few unintelligible words before continuing to eat his food.Nicole placed vegetables into his bowl and a glass of fruit juice in front of him, to which he took a sip with his eyes closed, as he had a tough time swallowing the food he was scarfing down."Nicole, you can have a bite." Lawrence went on to place Nicole's favorite dishes in front of her for her convenience."Yeah, let's dig in." Nicole nodded before signaling Lawrence to eat too."Mommy, godfather? Can we bring Lana together with us next time? The four of us haven't been out together in a long time," Nolan asked after swallowing the food in his mouth as he looked at Lawrence eagerly.Nolan did not look at his mother as he knew she would chew him out, which made him anxi

    "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
