Chapter 2410
After having breakfast, the pair left the Riddle residence.
Jared took Nicole to her office. He watched her go in before instructing Max to drive away.
"Any updates on Preston?" Jared asked in a serious tone, reclining in his seat.
"Not yet. He just sent a message saying he’s already contacted Ryder and Gary. Both of the brothers agreed to
help," Max replied.
"Okay." Jared was satisfied. After a brief thought, he added," The Finley's are working on a network intelligence
company. Arrange for someone to negotiate investment."
Max paused for a moment before nodding in agreement." Sure."
In actuality, the Finley family's project did not quite fit with the investment criteria of the Johnston Group. Jared's
decision was made more for the sake of his wife. He did not want to owe people too many favors. This way, it was a

With the arrangements settled, Jared picked up the documents next to him and began reading them with a solemn
expression.
Meanwhile in the Finley family.
"Preston, this task you got yourself into is quite challenging.
Where did you find this masochistic job?" Gary furrowed his eyebrows with a sour expression. He regretted
agreeing so easily when Preston had approached him.
Even the former Lucifer would find it difficult to complete this task, let alone now when Nicole had lost her memory.
They could not even seek her help even if they wanted to.
Preston glanced at Gary indifferently and said, "Don't even think about it. The truth is, this involves Nicole."
He could not reveal the specifics to them. After all, he did not know much himself.
"Even Nicole can't handle it?" Ryder's expression turned serious. 'If Nicole could not do it, could we?'
"Oh come on, pull yourselves together. I'm not asking you to compete with Nicole in hacking skills. What we need
now is to search for clues about the Five Crests, especially the Fire Crest. I trust you both, that's why I came to you,"
Preston encouraged them.
Gary gave Preston a disdainful look and asked, "You're saying this because you can't do it yourself, isn't it?"
"I might be able to. It's just that time is running short, and besides, three heads are better than one," Preston
replied with a hint of pride.
"Are you even here to ask for our help? What's with your attitude?" Gary protested irritably. 'Didn't asking for help
require a certain attitude?*
"Well, someone requested my help too, so why don't you go
tell Nicole that you won't help her?" Preston shrugged with a look of amusement on his face. He knew Gary would
not actually do that.
Gary glared at Preston indignantly. "You're ruthless."

instead," Ryder intervened, maintaining a much calmer demeanor.
"Do you have any ideas?" Preston and Gary both looked at Ryder with anticipation.
"Well, I was thinking-' Ryder's words were cut off by a knock on the door.
Annoyed, Gary furrowed his eyebrows and said, "Come in."
'Didn't we say that this is an urgent matter? Why are we being disturbed?'
The assistant walked in, visibly excited. "Mr. Ryder and Mr. Gary, the Johnston Group - the Johnston Group wants to
invest in us!"
"Look at you, barging in like this. I told you I have an urgent matter..." Gary was about to get angry, but he stopped
abruptly when he processed what he just heard. "What did you just say?"
"The Johnston Group contacted us. They want to invest in our artificial intelligence company," the assistant
repeated.
"What's going on?" Gary looked at Ryder with disbelief in his eyes.
