Chapter 2117

Author: Summer
Mr. Riddle Sr. trusted Nicole. Even if Dillon and Damien said they had evidence, they would not have anything against Nicole.

"Grandpa, we're the ones suffering a loss here. Why can't you put yourself in our shoes?" Raine was so angry that her face turned pale as she spoke.

'I thought that by gathering everyone, Grandpa would be fair. And yet, he's still siding with Nicole. All the evidence is pointing towards Nicole. Why is he still siding with her?'

"Raine, I remember that when the branch office was in trouble, you asked Preston to return and help out. Why isn't he here today? What did he say at that time? Could you repeat it for everyone here?" Sean glanced at Raine coldly. His calm tone gave a kind of pressure through them.

Raine's face turned even paler. It was because Preston said that there was no other problem except that a loophole existed in the company's system. Therefore, they did not inform Preston about the gathering. They knew that his words would be a disadvantage t

    "Alex." Dexter felt a little annoyed. He could only pretend to be strict and alert Alex. "Don't you see that grandpa isn't in a good mood? And yet, you're requesting to stay?""It was Uncle Dillon and Uncle Damien who angered grandpa, not us." Alex shrugged as if he had not done anything wrong. He seemed to be questioning why he should leave.Dexter's face darkened drastically, and he added with an even more stern voice, "Don't speak nonsense.""Enough. Let's eat," Mr. Riddle Sr. said.Alex immediately turned happy again. He looked at Nicole blankly. "Nicole, I need your help on a few things.""What are they?" Nicole was curious. What would Alex want her to teach him?Alex scratched his head awkwardly. "I've just joined the company, right? But I just graduated not long ago, and I don't have any experience in management. So—"He has always admired Nicole's abilities, and he respected her a lot. Therefore, he had set Nicole as his target. He wanted to work towards becoming at the

    After they were done with dinner, they left the Riddle residence accordingly.In the car, Nicole turned and looked at Jared. "Why didn't you say anything?"Jared was as quiet as a shadow that day. He was just sitting next to her without uttering a single word, but he still somehow gave her a sense of security.Jared looked down at her and said, "You did an amazing job."In fact, even if he was not present that day, Nicole would have also done a tremendous job by herself.Nicole shrugged. "These people only have one goal anyway."In short, they only had their eyes on the benefits, which was not unusual."Yeah, you're right." Jared nodded. 'Nicole has already seen through those people.'"But where do you think they got their so-called evidence?" Nicole frowned slightly. She recalled that Dillion looked confident in himself as well."Everett gave it to them," Jared answered steadily with a cold look in his eyes."Everett? How?!" She was shocked and wondered, 'On top that, how do

    If it were someone else, that person would already be freaking out by now. But Nicole being so calm just did not sit right with Karen."It's obviously because she has Grandpa on her side. That's why she isn't worried at all. I'm just going to sit back and watch how Grandpa will favor her after the police are done with the investigation," Raine said through her teeth bitterly."Yeah, I'm not going to let her off the hook so easily this time." Dillon's gaze turned dark. 'I finally got this chance, and I'm not going to blow it.'"Dad, are you going to send someone to keep an eye on them?" Raine asked softly, slightly concerned.Dillon squinted as he nodded. "You're right, I'll send someone to do that.""Okay, we didn't get to eat anything even though we went to the Riddle residence. Let's eat now," Karen said gloomily."Let's eat," Dillon agreed.They then went to a restaurant without Snow. The determined look she had on her face was nowhere to be seen. Her smile turned to a schemi

    "Okay," Jared responded lightly. His expression remained cold as if he was not excited about this outcome. Perhaps, this had always been the outcome he expected."As for Lawrence, I've already sent people over to Happiness Trading. It's probably a lose-lose situation over there." Max sounded pleased.'You've taken away our partnership, so we'll show you now that some things shouldn't be meddled with.'"Let's renew the contract with Radiance Commerce," Jared ordered. He leaned back in his seat with a cold gaze, pondering something.Max responded to him and continued driving without disturbing Jared anymore.On the other hand.Ian hurriedly returned to the company. "Boss, Happiness Trading is very upset with us. They're disappointed and expressed that they no longer want to work with us," Ian reported in a muffled voice, his face turning pale."Hmph, do they think Jared would want to work with them still?" Lawrence scoffed. 'How could Jared tolerate the betrayal? When Happiness Tr

    Lawrence glanced at Ian with an annoyed expression which ultimately shut him up.After some time, they arrived at the Riddle Corporation. They greeted the receptionist and walked into the elevator to get to Nicole's office.The receptionist had already notified Nicole, so she knew that Lawrence was coming. When Nicole heard someone knocking on her door, she immediately said, "Come in."Lawrence opened the door, and Nicole smiled. "What brings you here? Work?"Since Lawrence had always brought collaboration projects whenever he visited her, Nicole assumed that Lawrence must be here for work this time.But unexpectedly, Lawrence calmly sat down on the couch and said, "I'm not busy today, so I thought I'd come and see you."Nicole was both amused and defeated. "You're not busy?"The Genesis Group had just entered San Joto and was currently in a vigorous development stage, so she thought Lawrence should be busy."Of course, I'm not made of iron." Lawrence pushed the blame onto his

    Nicole squinted slightly and asked, "Why do you ask?""I'm planning to return to the island soon, and I figured that you probably don't have time to come with me. That's why I'm here to ask if you want anything from the island," Lawrence explained with a smile."You're going back to Crescent Island?!" Nicole was shocked. 'Why is he going back all of a sudden?'She had decided to settle in San Joto and had already taken care of everything on Crescent Island. Lawrence had also made all the necessary arrangements before coming to San Joto and even expanded his business here. For that reason, she did not expect Lawrence to suddenly want to go back."I have some urgent matters to attend to back there, but I'll be back soon," Lawrence said."Oh." Nicole didn't inquire further and just told Lawrence, "I don't have anything I want from there.""Alright, I'll be back as soon as possible." Lawrence got up and prepared to leave.Nicole raised an eyebrow and asked, "Are you leaving now?""

    "Benefactor?" Nicole was confused.Lulu nodded earnestly. "If he hadn't saved you, I wouldn't have been able to see you again."Slightly taken aback, Nicole smiled at Lulu as a sense of warmth filled in her heart.They were friends, and Lulu genuinely cared about her."Nicole, how did you get by in the last five years? Why did you only come back to us now?" Lulu rested her chin on her palm as she leaned on Nicole's desk with a puzzled expression."Well, I was injured and couldn't come back," Nicole explained lightly, avoiding the terrifying details. She did not want Lulu to know about those horrifying experiences."Oh, no wonder Mr. Johnston and the Riddle family kept you protected." Lulu's face turned pale as she found it hard to imagine what kind of danger Nicole had encountered.Knowing that Lulu genuinely cared about her, Nicole stared at Lulu. Suddenly, she remembered that Sean and Steve would bring their wives home in a few days. It would be nice to invite Lulu and June as

    Nicole shook her head and chuckled. She kind of understood why Lulu had endured extensive mistreatment at her previous company without resigning and changing jobs. Given the power of her previous company, Lulu would indeed achieve a sense of accomplishment if she had achieved results."Since this is your decision, I won't insist anymore. But you should still come to the family banquet. After all, only our family members will be there. Just don't announce your relationship with Spencer." Nicole made the decision for Lulu, but she was slightly worried that Lulu was still not going to attend, so she added, "June will also be there.""She agreed ?!" Lulu's eyes widened in surprise.Nicole instantly understood that Samuel and June must also have their reasons for not making their relationship public."Okay." Lulu nodded in agreement.Nicole did not tell Lulu that she had not informed June yet, but she will make sure June showed up.Lulu did not think much of it and assumed that June h

    "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. "You look truly beautiful today," he remarked."Daddy, Mommy is beautiful every day," Lana chimed in, til

    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
