"She? No way.She doesn’t have the guts."

Since Martin did not believe it, Nicole had to show him the surveince footage again.She took out her
laptop and yed the surveince footage.
"Come here and take a look."
Martin got up and stood beside Nicole.This was his first time so close to her, his heart fluttering.
Nicole showed him the footage of Joyce going in anding out and finally framed the moment when
Joyce re -emerged from theb.
Nicole paused the screen and zoomed in on Joyce’s backpack.
"Does she usually carry a bag this big?" Martin recalled and shook his head.
"She usually carried a shoulder bag.I have never seen this bag before."
"If I’m not mistaken, this backpack contains the results of the experiment, and finding Joyce will find the
results of the experiment."
Nicole pointed to the backpack in the footage.
Martin’s heart sank.
This was an oue he had not expected.His fluttering heart had calmed down, followed by a moment
of contemtion.He slowly returned to his seat with Joyce’s face reyed in his mind.
"What are you going to do?" Nicole asked softly.
She knew Joyce had always been Martin’s right-hand man and had followed him for a long time, so it
was normal for him to be unable to ept this.
"Let me think about it."
He was now eager to get the results of the experiment back immediately.But would she admit it and
return the result to him if he went looking for her directly? https://novelebook "The rtionship
between you and her hasplicated the matter.Take your time to think about it and contact me if you
need anything.I’m leaving now."
Nicole tucked herptop, got to her feet, and was ready to go.
"Thank you, Nicole," Martin said with an expressionless face.
Martin continued to sit alone in the restaurant, losing himself in thought.
After Nicole left the restaurant, she went back to the Riddle Mansion.
As she walked into the living room, Gloria and Daniel were already waiting for her on the couch.
"Nicole,e sit down."
Gloria was the first to speak.
"Mom, you’re back."
Nicole walked over and nced at Daniel.
"I might be too harsh to you at school this afternoon.Please don’t be angry with me." Gloria took
Nicole’s hand.
Nicole looked like she had never taken that to heart at all.
"Mom, if you don’t mention it, I don’t even remember it."
"I told you, Nicole is forgiving.She won’t even take these little things to heart."
Daniel gave Nicole a look to ease the awkward atmosphere.Gloria rolled her eyes at him.
"I know you are the only one who knows your daughter’s best.Happy?"
"Mom, Norah-"
"Don’t mention it again.I won’t transfer any more money to Norah from now on."
"Mom, you…"
Nicole nced at Daniel with surprise, wondering why her mother suddenly had a change of heart.
Daniel looked at Nicole and nodded as if saying that Gloria had been like this since she returned from
the hospital.
"I have visited Norah’s parents, and they’re going to be in the hospital for a long time.Norah can’t stay
unattended, so I have decided to let Norah move back in with us tomorrow."
Nicole and Daniel were stunned.So this was where it hit the hardest.
"Gloria, shouldn’t we all talk about this together about this?"
Daniel did not expect Gloria would suddenly make such a decision.
"Sean and Steve aren’t staying at home; Spencer and Samuel onlye back once a while, and only
Nicole is back from time to time.So there are only a few of us at home.What else is there to discuss?"
Gloria looked assertive.
"But Norah is not even a member of the Riddle family anymore, so it’s inappropriate for her toe
back and stay here again?"
Daniel still tactfully discouraged her.
"What’s inappropriate? She has lived here since she was a child, and even though she has reunited
with her biological parents, she still calls me mom."
