    That probably meant that Riddle Corporation could lose the tender.

    “What will happen if we lose?” Gloria did not want to hide things from her daughter, so she said in a


    whisper, “If we lose, we will lose everything that we have invested in thatnd.” Of course, that was not


    all.


    Money spent on greasing the wheels, which were not small amounts, would also go down the drain.


    So losing the tender meant hollowing out the cash flow and increasing the debts of Riddle Corporation.


    Gloria was afraid of putting too much pressure on her daughter, so what she told her was an


    understatement.


    But Nicole could easily hear the worry and nervousness she implied in her words.


    After all, this was the biggest investment that Riddle Corporation had bet on in years.


    Nicole did not go on asking but looked knowingly at Gloria’s somewhat tired face.


    “You have a good rest, Mom.


    I will go first.” “You’re leaving so quick?” Gloria asked eagerly.


    “I have to study for my monthly exam, which ising soon.” Nicole said with a nod.


    Gloria could not argue with that and reluctantly saw Nicole out.


    As Nicole waved goodbye at her, Gloria suddenly said, “Why don’t you wait a second? I will ask your


    brother to send you home.” Nicole shook her head and looked at the ck car in front of her with a faint


    smile on her face.


    “It’s okay, Mom.


    Go back inside,” she said.


    Gloria watched in surprise as Nicole walked toward the ck car that she could not tell what model it


    was.


    Nicole opened the car door, turned to look at Gloria, who was still standing in the doorway, and frowned.


    She walked back again and brought Gloria into the house before she turned around and left. Nicole was


    worried that her mother would catch a cold as Gloria was wearing too little.


    When Nicole came back to the car again, Jared tapped the leather seat with the index finger of his right


    hand.


    She looked nonchnt, opened the rear passenger door, and got it when she saw it was now Max who


    was behind the wheel. As Nicole got in the car, Jared’s expression turned gentle.


    “How’s your grandfather’s condition?” he asked: “He is still strong, recovering fast,” she said faintly.


    Jared nodded gently, but he raised an eyebrow when he saw her expression.


    “What happened?” Nicole nced at him as if she did not expect that he could read her mind.


    “Nothing,” she just said faintly in reply.


    She was ustomed to solving all problems on her own and never


    depended on others.


    Jared looked at her with dejection in his eyes.


    He wondered if it was because they were not close enough that she did not want to tell him about her


    problems.


    But he did not show his emotion on his face, but just with a hint of a frosty look in his eyes.


    He casually curled the corner of his lips and looked at Nicole with a little sense of emptiness and


    coldness in his eyes.


    “If you need help, just let me know,” he said.


    The light dimmed, and Nicole had not noticed his change of expression.


    But she still felt his concern for her and nodded.


    “I will.””
