Chapter 155

Max shook his head, then realized that Jared could not see him. So, he said, “Nicole said nothing else.

She just left in the rain.” It was sunny in Nottingbrook State, and it was early in the morning, but Jared’s

mind seemed to be gloomy, his voice cold. “You let her go just like that?” Max did not respond. He knew

how important Nicole was to Jared, but it probably was not Jared’s greatest concern.

But in the next moment, Jared’s stern voice came. “You two, go outside and stand until the rain stops.”

Max gave Claus a look. The two of them had no objections and immediately went outside to stand in the

rain. As cold rain slid down his expressionless face, only then did Max think of something-running so fast

in such a cold and heavy rain, Nicole was indeed like his boss, an invincible wonder. In the Riddle family

Damien was standing in front of Mr. Riddle Sr. with his head lowered as he was debriefed.

Mr. Riddle Sr. asked him about something from time to time, and Damien answered every question. After

finishing talking about business, their conversation shifted to the fight for a piece of land between Riddle

Corporation and the rapidly rising McCarthy Corporation in San Joto,

Damien looked a little worried at the mention of this land. “I saw the McCarthys and Mr. Wyance seeing

eye to eye at the birthday party of the Rogers family. I am worried -”

Mr. Riddle Sr. shot a glance at his eldest son, and Damien immediately shut up. Damien was excellent in

every way except that he was too much of an alarmist and indecisive. But it did not mean that they would

let down their guard. If Mr. Wyance really favored McCarthy Corporation, they might likely lose the bid for

the land. The Riddle Corporation was betting big and had spent a lot of money and effort on this piece of

land that would be earmarked for development.

“What else have you heard and seen at the birthday party of the Rogers family?” Mr. Riddle Sr. asked

inquisitively. It was an invitation he had literally begged for and gotten because of Miley’s relationship

with the Rogers family. Dillon could not be more envious of them. There was a trace of hesitation in

Damien’s eyes when he heard Mr. Riddle Sr.’s question. He wondered if the girl he saw yesterday was

Nicole. After all, she had no background, and her relationship with the Riddle family was not made

public. How could she get such a courteous reception from Mr. Rogers Sr.? But Damien still said, “Dad, I

saw Nicole at the Rogers family’s birthday party yesterday.”

Mr. Riddle Sr. was stunned. “Nicole? How could she have gone there?”

Damien was also confused. “Dad, she didn’t just go, but it was Mr. Rogers Sr. who invited her personally.

She sat with the top families, but she didn’t seize the opportunity. She just stayed for one minute and

left.”

There was a look of sour grapes in Damien’s eyes. He did not expect Nicole to be able to sit with those

big shots.

Mr. Riddle Sr. looked surprised upon hearing what Damien said. This granddaughter of his, whom he had

just reunited with, knew not only Thomas Ellison but also the Rogerses. This was really something

unexpected. But when Nicole’s score of zero points came to mind, his face became a little disappointed.

‘Instead of studying hard, Nicole’s been buttering up the bigwigs. But come to think of it, if even Mr.

Rogers Sr. has accorded Nicole such courteous treatment. Could it be that I had been thinking too badly

of Nicole?’
