At this time, Lawrence acted unfamiliar to Jared. He walked over and stretched out his hand. "Mr.
Johnston, it's been a while."
Jared's face hardened. He did not extend his hand.
Nicole was surprised when she noticed the tension. "You guys know each other?"
'For the past five years, Leo had been taking care of me, but did they know each other?'
Jared's expression was stone cold. He smiled cruelly. "We're not just acquainted. He once helped me
transport some things back to San Joto before... novelebook.comand now that my wife had gone
missing, it was him who found her back for me."
'Jared's wife?' Nicole looked at Lawrence suspiciously, thinking that he would be taken aback but
Lawrence looked calm.
"I'm afraid that there's been some misunderstanding between us two. Why don't we have a talk about
it?"
Everyone in the room was stunned to see Lawrence and hearing what Jared had said, everyone left
their food untouched. The butler cleared up the table and everyone moved to the living room and sat
down.
Jared sat across from Lawrence. With an unpleasant expression, he asked, "Now can we talk about
it?"
'Nicole had been missing for five long years, it's so obvious that he had kept her hidden for this long. I
want to see what kind of excuse he could make up this time...'
At this moment, Nicole, Daniel, and the others were listening to the conversation, waiting for Lawrence
to tell them the truth.
Lawrence calmly took a sip of his coffee before speaking. "When Ms. Riddle disappeared back then, I
had sent out people to help you find her. But under the circumstances of the plane crash and that she
was missing for so many days, I was beginning to think that she had died. It wasn't until much later that
I found someone on an island with a child. I thought that she looked just like Nicole, but I didn't dare
think much further as she might be a wife to someone else. So, that's why I hadn't been giving any
unnecessary feedback to you, Mr. Johnston, to save you from further false hope."
Lawrence had made it sound like he was concerned about Jared's wellbeing, but to Jared's ears it was
all rubbish.
Lawrence peered at Jared's gloomy face, not giving one thought about him before looking at Nicole.
"To me, when I saw Nicole back then, it was love at first sight. I fell in love with her, thought she looked
like her, and she was carrying a child. I didn't mind, and I just wanted to protect and take care of her."
Nicole was in shock at Lawrence's words. 'What's going on? Was this the reason he was good to me?
He fell in love with me at first sight. Everything makes sense now, how he treated me so well, wanting
nothing in return.'
"Even if she was carrying a child, shouldn't the first thing you do be reporting to me?"
When Jared left Ramania, he had assigned Lawrence to the matter. It was unexpected that Lawrence
had stabbed him in the back like this.
'He's the reason why Nicole and I were separated for five years!'
Lawrence was silent for a moment before speaking up. "Mr. Johnston, do you know how powerful Ms.
Riddle was back then? But now, Niki is just a normal single mother. Of course, by right, I wouldn't want
her to be with someone who is unable to protect her. I have to admit I am a tad bit selfish."
As soon as these words came out, all of Jared's flaws were brought to light. Jared reminisced on his
past regrets of not protecting Nicole well enough. The pain and regret went deep into his bones, like a
wound that would not heal, and to have it picked on by Lawrence, the pain was unbearable.
