Having understood what Jared was referring to, she glared at him. Still, she went on to wipe the corner
of his mouth anyway.
Jared happily grabbed the paper towel and placed it on the table. Then, he held Nicole’s hands and
brought her up to the first floor. By then, everyone in the house was already in bed, including Nolan and
Lana. Thus, Jared and Nicole went right back to their room.
Just as Nicole was about to step into the shower, her phone blared with a message.
She shot her phone a glance, and that was when her eyes narrowed. It was a message from
Lawrence.
Noticing that Nicole had a weird look on her face, Jared asked, “Who’s that?”
“It’s from Lawrence. He’s saying that Everett has nothing to do with this incident.
However, he’s asking me to be careful as Everett is in close contact with Chloe.”
Nicole explained.
She was dumbfounded by the fact that Lawrence was helping her keep an eye on Everett. ‘Aren’t
Everett and Lawrence working together?’ “Good to know,” Jared said, before taking Nicole’s phone
away and handing a set of pajamas to Nicole.
Jared’s reaction was clear. ‘There’s no need to bother with his message. Just take a shower and go to
sleep.’ Nicole looked at Jared with a smile. Then, she took her pajamas and entered the bathroom.
Jared looked at her phone for a moment and placed it on the table. Since then, she had paid the
message no mind.
In regard to Chloe and Everett’s issue, Nicole was sure that the both of them would not be able to
evade legal responsibility even if she could gather nothing from the investigations.
When Nicole emerged from the bathroom, she saw that Jared was sitting by the bed, deep in thought.
So, she sauntered over and asked, “What are you thinking about?”
“Nothing much,” Jared said upon noticing that she was done washing up. “You may go to bed first.”
“How about you?” Nicole was a little confused.
“I still have some issues to deal with.” Jared planted a kiss on Nicole’s forehead and patted her on her
shoulder.
As Nicole lied down, she saw Jared switching his computer on. Then, she bit her lips nervously and fell
asleep.
Jared watched as Nicole fell asleep beside him, a surge of warmth radiating from within his chest.
Then, he went up to the desk and sat down at the computer.
A man’s face immediately appeared on the computer screen. “Hello sir.”
“Charlie, any updates?” Jared asked calmly.
“Yes. Everett could not unlock the Water Crest, so he passed it to Lawrence.
They’ve decided to work together.” Charlie reported frankly.
“The Water Crest?” Jared raised his brow in confusion. “How did Everett even acquire it in the first
place?”
“It must have been his luck. Unfortunately for him, he’s not savvy enough to crack the system. After he
opened it, the Water Crest was unable to recognize its bearer and its failsafe kicked in, locking it again.
Lawrence has since been looking for people skilled enough to give it a shot, but none of them have
succeeded. I’m not sure if he’ll seek Mrs.
Johnston’s help soon,” Charlie said, his voice tinged with concern.
If Lawrence were to ask Nicole to crack the Water Crest and if she were to agree to it, they would just
give rise to a rival as formidable as they were.
“Understood. I’ll take care of this,” Jared said, his voice heavy with cold fury.
“So, has Everett been hiding in the base camp all this while?”
“Yes. Lawrence wouldn’t let him out. He probably doesn’t want Everett to disrupt his plan,” Charlie
answered.
And after a moment of hesitation, he asked, “Should I think of a way to lure Everett out from there?”
