Chapter 3108Chapter 3108
As the sun set, Nicole left the company and found Jared waiting for her. She smiled as she approached
and got into the car.
Noticing the faint signs of fatigue on her face, Jared asked, "Tired?"
"It's okay, just a bit frustrated because some things aren't making sense yet, " Nicole replied, leaning
back in her seat and sighing.
Because of the Eastern Falcon matter?” Jared seemed to understand Nicole's concerns.
Nicole raised her eyebrows in surprise and asked, "How did you know?”
"Take a look at this." Jared handed her a document.
Nicole flipped through the file, her brows furrowing. It contained the latest investigative information on
the Eastern Falcon, but the contents were unexpected, prompting Nicole to murmur, "They've been this
quiet lately?”
It didn't make sense to her. If the Eastern Falcon was indeed backing Everett, their low profile was
inexplicable. And if they had other plans, it was unlikely that no evidence would be found.
"Look at the back," Jared prompted Nicole.
Nicole turned the page. As she read further, her expression darkened. "You suspect... Everett has
taken control of their leader?"
The findings in the document seemed to support this theory.’There's that possibility," Jared replied softly. "Recently, I had Max arrange for some investigations.
According to the information gathered, it seems Everett might be controlling the Eastern Falcon, or at
least a faction within it."
Nicole's eyes narrowed slightly. "So, Everett might have the leader under his control?"
"We can't rule out that possibility,” Jared confirmed.
"Did you tell Zane?" Nicole asked.
"I faxed him," Jared said, taking the document from Nicole. "Just letting you know.’
"Got it." Nicole nodded, her expression showing she understood the importance of the information for
their investigation.
Jared looked at Nicole. "Zane will deal with the leader. Well handle Everett. ■
’Okay," Nicole said firmly, her gaze determined. It was time for a coordinated effort.
After a while, they got home.
In the living room, Daniel and Gloria were playing with Nolan and Lana.
novelbin"Hi, Mommy. Hi, Daddy," the two little ones greeted Nicole and Jared as they walked in.
"You're back!" Nicole greeted the kids with a smile, walking over to the couch to greet Gloria and
Daniel.
"Dinner's not ready yet; have a seat and wait," Gloria said, gesturing for Nicole and Jared to sit down.
As they sat, Daniel turned to Nicole. "I heard there was some trouble at BayCorp?""Who told you that?" Nicole asked, narrowing her eyes slightly, unsure if Daniel was referring to the
phosphate rock powder incident and thus cautious in her response.
’Dexter mentioned Ellar had to work late. I thought there might be some issues at the company," Daniel
explained.
Realizing Daniel hadn't heard about the phosphate rock powder incident, Nicole silently breathed a
sigh of relief. ’It's probably just work. Nothing to worry about."
"That's good," Daniel said, feeling relieved.
He added, "I was at your grandpa's with Dexter when he suddenly got a call from Emma.
"Seemed like she was complaining about Ellar working late.
’I didn't get the details, so I thought I'd ask you. As long as it's nothing serious."
"No need to worry," Nicole said, seeming to understand the situation, chuckling softly and shaking her
head.
She thought to herself, 'It must have been about Doretta, leading Ellar to find excuses not to come
home.' Nicole wasn't surprised by Ellar’s actions, considering how Ellar had rushed out early in the
morning to avoid Doretta and was now finding excuses to stay away.
’Dinner's ready," the butler announced.
