Chapter 1975

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... and 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.
