Chapter 2709
Jared gave her an affectionate look and shook his head after he had seen her smile. "Remember to tell me if you're
going to do anything like this in the future."
This way, he could assign a security detail to protect her and ensure that she would not be harmed.
To that, Nicole replied, "You've already assigned Patricia to me. Don't you know the capabilities of the people you've
chosen?"
Moreover, she herself was not totally defenseless. Indeed, she was not as dexterous and strong as she was before,
but she was still capable of holding her own against people who were not trained in martial arts.
"Yes, you're always right." Jared smiled softly and brought Nicole into the car.
After giving Patricia a glance, Max got into the car and drove away.
Patricia glanced back at the police station, understanding Max's gesture. They had to keep a close eye on the
situation, even though they had succeeded in capturing Chloe. They could not give Chloe the chance to escape
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtblame, and they could absolutely not allow Chloe to pin the blame on someone else.
After making a call, Patricia left the police station.
Instead of taking Nicole back to the company headquarters, Jared brought her right to the Riddle family manor.
"Dad, Mom, why are you here?" Nicole asked, surprised to see Daniel and Gloria there.
After shooting Nicole a glance, Daniel replied, "We came to see Grandpa. What brought you here at this hour of the
day?"
If nothing out of the ordinary had occurred, Nicole should still be in her office at this time, and the fact that Jared
was here with her was an indication that something had come up.
"Um..." Nicole hesitated and looked at Benjamin before saying, "Something happened."
She had intended to tell her grandfather about Chloe, but she was not expecting her parents to be there as well.
After thinking about it for a moment, Nicole decided to speak up. After all, everyone would come to know about the
situation when the police publicized Chloe's arrest eventually.
"Chloe has been arrested." Nicole looked at them and revealed.
And just like that, everyone in the room was astonished." What?!”
"What happened?" Benjamin narrowed his eyes.
Nicole sighed and briefly recounted what had happened earlier. After that, the living room instantly fell silent, and
the
tension became palpable.
Gloria was the first to speak as she looked at Nicole with sympathy. "She's gone too far."
She had never thought that Chloe, who was already in such a state, would still attempt to do something so sinister.
She had even resorted to kidnapping and disfigurement, something that no person of sound mind would even do.
"She has tried to bring you down. It's good that she has been caught in the act. She must face the consequences
for what she has done." Karen pursed her lips.
"It's so ridiculous. How can Chloe, who is already paralyzed, still manage to pull off so many tricks?" she wondered
out loud.
In fact, she was implying that Chloe could not have done these things alone, and she believed that no one present
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmwas stupid enough to believe that Chloe was a lone wolf either. In fact, they would probably understand her.
Naturally, everyone understood her. It was just that at this moment, no one could even be bothered to think about
it because it would not make a difference even if they did.
Chloe was already caught red-handed. Even if they suspected that someone had secretly aided her, their
speculations and assumptions would not be confirmed if Chloe admitted to nothing on record. Moreover, Damien
should have already known about Chloe's situation by now, and yet he had remained silent. As such, they could not
guess what he was planning.
"Since the evidence is conclusive, let the police handle the rest." Benjamin calmly said.
Although the turn of events was somewhat shocking, it did not seem that surprising at all. Chloe's actions during the
last incident were already outrageous enough, and what she had just done was simply an escalation of such
behavior.
"Yeah, that's our plan too." Nicole looked at Benjamin. "I just came here today to inform you about this."
Although Chloe's situation had not been publicized, it would eventually be made known to everyone in San Joto by
the police. Therefore, she thought it was better to announce it in advance to prevent it from being too shocking of a
news when it was officially revealed later down the line.
