Chapter 1256


    Jared could not tell Martin that Nicole was angry with him but watching Martin anxious made him even


    more anxious.


    “Maybe you can contact her,” Jared said while looking at Martin.


    “Me?” Martin looked at Jared in surprise, not understanding what he meant.


    “Hurry up and try to call her,” Jared ordered a dazed Martin.


    “Okay.” Martin quickly took out his phone and dialed Nicole’s number. Both Jared and Martin listened


    intently to the call tone, and after a long while, the call was answered.

    “Martin, what are you calling me for?” Nicole’s voice came from the phone. At that moment, the hearts


    of Jared and Martin felt lighter when they heard her voice.


    “Nicole, are you okay?” Martin asked with concern in his voice.


    “I’m doing quite well. Did something happen at the factory?” Nicole asked. She felt a little weird hearing


    Martin’s tone.


    The factory is fine. I haven’t called you in such a long time, so I was just catching up,” Martin said


    quickly to cover it up.


    “It hasn’t been that long, has it? Wasn’t I in the country just a few days ago?”


    Jared typed on the phone and showed it to Martin. ’Yeah. Where are you now?” Martin asked


    ording to Jared’s words.


    “Where else can I be? I’m working overtime at the R&D center.” Nicole was upset and had not gotten


    any sleep due to the chip’s trouble.


    “Is everything normal at the R&D center recently?” Martin continued to ask ording to Jared’s


    questions.


    “Everything’s fine. What’s wrong with you today? Why are you asking strange questions?” Nicole


    sensed that something was wrong with Martin and asked.


    “I’m fine. It’s because of what happened in the factory recently, so I’m a little bit worried about you.”


    Martin finished speaking and looked at Jared.


    “Don’t worry about me. You better think of a way to rebuild the factory as soon as possible.’


    “Is Jared helping out at the factory?” Nicole asked when she was suddenly reminded what she had


    entrusted Jared to do before she left.


    “Yeah. Mr. Johnston has beening to the factory quite frequently recently. He also helped US find


    the person who started the fire.’ Martin praised Jared in front of Nicole.


    “I see he still has some conscience.” Nicole unconsciouslyined. Martin did not expect Nicole to


    say such words and looked at Jared suspiciously, where Jared dodged eye contact for a moment.


    “Does the person have any aplices?” Nicole asked Martin.


    “Not in the factory. I’ve already fired him and sent people to watch over him.” Martin reported the


    progress to Nicole.


    “Well, you did the right thing. It is impossible for a worker who has nothing against you to set fire and


    risk being imprisoned. There must be someone instructing him to do so.” Nicole’s analysis became


    more certain.


    “Mr. Johnston and I thought of the same thing too.”


    “Is there any news about the McCarthy family?” Nicole asked.


    “I haven’t heard of anything as of the moment,” Martin replied.


    “Why has it gotten so silent with no news…,” Nicole thought to herself.


    “Do you want to tell her about someone following her?” Martin asked Jared in a small voice.


    “Tell her so that she’s aware and alert about it.”
