"Yeah, I understand how sad you must be feeling," Harvey said, attempting to console her. "I get it.""Oh, really?" Nicole laughed. "I'm just trying to figure out Mr. Johnson Sr.'s condition? Why are you comforting me?""You're just trying to figure out Mr. Johnson Sr.'s condition?" Harvey repeated after her."It seems to me that you've watched one too many TV shows." Nicole stared at him with a brow raised and shook her head. "What do you think I was doing?"Harvey buried his face in his hands, knowing that he had misunderstood; he had embarrassed himself. Darting his eyes at his watch to catch a glimpse of the time, he changed the subject in an attempt to mitigate the resulting awkwardness."It's already noon. Why don't we head out for lunch together?"Nicole checked the time as well, and was surprised to realize that she had been in the ward for so long. "What's on the menu today?""You can order whatever you fancy!" Harvey said, finally able to recover what was left of his d

"Mr. Johnston, it is Mr. Henry who had ordered us to protect Mr. Johnston Sr."Jared nodded gently. "Have you noticed anything unusual lately?""No. Only Miss Riddle and Mr. Ellison of the Ellison Group came over as of recent.""Mr. Ellison?" Jared frowned. "You mean, Harvey Ellison?""Yes."Jared gasped and sighed, annoyed with Harvey, who he thought was adept at exploiting the tiniest of opportunities to make his advances on Nicole while he was away. Then, he strode over and sat down at the bedside, looking at Mr. Johnston Sr.'s face as he slumbered. "Grandpa, why haven't you woken up yet?"All of a sudden, something miraculous transpired. Perhaps it was the medication or perhaps, Mr. Johnston Sr. had heard Jared's voice. Whatever the cause was, the old man's fingers began twitching.Claus saw that and exclaimed, "He is moving!"With his eyes widened, Jared whirled around and stared at Claus. "What did you say?""Mr. Johnston!" Claus pointed at the hand of the elderly Johnst

"You saw your grandpa's fingers move?" Nicole repeated in shock."Yes, and it wasn't just me." Jared glanced at Claus. "He saw it too.""Did you?" Nicole looked at Claus with her eyes widened.She could not help but beat herself up deep within for missing such a significant moment, even though she had been tending to the elderly Johnston every day since he was hospitalized, while Jared and Claus, who had just arrived, had already witnessed it. However, she also knew that her medicine had worked. As Mr. Johnston Sr. had shown signs of consciousness today, he would most probably wake up tomorrow or the day after, should there be no incidents. Still, she knew that these were just her own speculations, and she could tell no one about it just yet."Your grandpa must be happy to know you've returned to see him," Nicole said as she sat next to Jared.He smiled at her. "No one else knows, but I do. You haven't gotten much rest while you were taking care of Grandpa, have you?"With a mix

Harvey looked over to Nicole with a sigh of exasperation. "Jared was a gentleman and a top executive at one point. When did he become so rude? I guess you're the one to blame for that, right?""I don't think I have that sort of power over him." Nicole smirked. "But if you ask me, I think he's the way he is because of you.""Because of me?" Harvey asked, before he began pondering on his role in all of this. "Well, alright, I think I know what you mean."Nicole burst into a fresh gale of laughter, and seeing this, Harvey stopped her. "Is it really that funny? Come on, keep it down. Mr. Johnston Sr. needs his rest."Realizing her gaffe, Nicole stopped herself and allowed her laughter to taper off.Outside the ward, a bodyguard had reported to Henry everything that had just transpired in the ward. When Henry, who was in a good mood, heard the news that Mr. Johnston Sr. could awake from his comatose, the smile on his face vanished. He hung up in disbelief, his eyes blank and his face e

"I'll be sure to watch him closely."Jared was having lunch in a restaurant with Claus, to whom he said, "Before leaving the country, I asked you to investigate the accident that my grandpa was involved in. Have you managed to gather anything?""I found a video." Claus handed his phone to Jared."Wait, why is there only one video? Shouldn't there be a few other surveillance cameras on that stretch of road?" Jared said with his brows raised."All of the cameras along that street were damaged," Claus reported. "I have every reason to suspect that someone had sabotaged them in advance. The only one that was left untouched was the one which got us this footage, and it was located right outside a mall about a few hundred yards away. The truth of the matter is, we aren't able to identify the car by its brand or its license plate because of the distance and the angle."Jared watched as he listened to Claus. The instant he saw his grandfather's car being slammed into, his heart sank. He c

Jared studied Chloe's demeanor and surmised that she did not seem to be lying, but he also knew that Nicole wasn't known for her veracity, and thus, he decided it would be better to investigate so as not to misunderstand Nicole."The steak here is wonderful." Jared rose up to his feet. "Enjoy your meal."Chloe looked on with a smirk as Jared left the premises. She knew that her words had taken hold in Jared's heart. "Harvey, you have me to thank for helping you."In the car, Jared began pondering if there was truth in her words. To avoid jumping to baseless conclusions, he decided it would be better to let Claus look into it. "Claus, I want you to look into what Chloe has just said.""Mr. Johnston, is it possible that Chloe is trying to sow discord among you and Miss Riddle?""Don't worry about her," Jared replied. "I wish to know everything that had happened in my absence.""Okay."Claus drove Jared back to the villa and began his investigation as the latter had ordered.The v

"So that is the reason why you did what you did to Harvey yesterday, isn't it?""It seems to me that you've been dishing out a number of rhetorical questions. Are you having a guilty conscience?" Jared asked, staring into her eyes."No, I'm not. I just didn't expect you to do that to Harvey. He was a little shocked." Nicole looked at him."Did he say that to you?" Jared raised an eyebrow at her."Sort of.""He even told you what was on his mind." Jared looked at Nicole suspiciously. "Wasn't he afraid that you would tell me?""Maybe he hasn't even thought about it. Anyway, I heard what Henry said just now. Was the international project difficult?" Nicole digressed, not wanting to discuss about Harvey with him.Jared could sense that Nicole did not wish to talk about Harvey. "It was a piece of cake. If he didn't say that, he would have no reason to send me away."Nicole nodded, seeming to understand what Jared was saying. "If that is what you mean, then what was his intention of

The dazzling Lamborghini sped down the highway, and it did not take long for it to arrive at the residence of the Riddles."Mom, Dad, I'm home!" Nicole walked in."Nicole, come on over," Samuel called out to her from the living room.Nicole followed his voice to the living room, where Samuel was watching a sci-fi show. "I thought you've got something interesting going on. Apparently, you guys are just watching a movie.""Come take a seat and watch it with us. It is one of the most popular movies as of late," Samuel said."Really?" Nicole went over and sat down with Samuel and Spencer. "Alright, I'm sold.""Nicole, how is Mr. Johnston Sr. doing?" Daniel approached Nicole and asked."There are signs of improvement.""That is good.""Nicole, I've been meaning to ask. How did Mr. Johnston Sr. get himself into that accident? Does his family know?" Daniel looked at Nicole curiously."Not yet. As far as I'm aware, the case is still under investigation," Nicole said.She did not tel

"Jared stayed back because someone had to look after Mr. Johnston Sr.""Indeed," Daniel replied. "He just returned to the country. He should definitely be spending more time with his grandfather.""Dad, why haven't I seen Norah even after I've been back for so long?" Nicole said, thinking that Norah had moved away after she had exposed her."Norah?" Daniel said. "She is out on a trip with your classmates and has been gone for a few days."Without Norah at home, Daniel was much more relaxed.Nicole looked at Daniel with a frown. "So, she didn't move out?""Nope.""Wait, haven't her parents been discharged?" Nicole said, perplexed at Norah's ungrateful behavior. Did she not go home to look after them? Why is she still allowed to freeload in our house?""Who told you that Norah's parents were discharged from the hospital? How am I not aware of that?" Daniel looked at Nicole with surprise, as Gloria had visited them at the hospital yesterday."So, they have not been discharged?" N

"Thank you, Mom." Nicole said politely."What's with the formality? Are you still mad at me?" Gloria knew she had been unfair to Nicole by being protective of Norah at her expense."No.""Nicole, you can't blame me for defending Norah. I know she is pretty timid, even as a kid. She has always been cautious about everything and have always catered to the whims of others." Gloria explained."I understand your position."Nicole accompanied Gloria as she worked in the kitchen, and after a while, Nicole returned to the living room. "Are you guys done? Dinner's ready."At the table, Gloria looked at Nicole and asked, "Has Mr. Johnston Sr. woken up yet?""Nope, not yet," she replied, having to answer the same question once again."He hasn't? Well, that doesn't bode well for him." Gloria sighed and continued eating."Quit blabbering in front of the children. Mr. Johnston Sr. is showing signs of recovery," Daniel quickly added.Nicole went on to explain. "Mom, it's not as grim as you
