Chapter 2049


    "Jared, is there really no way to help Nicole regain her memories?" Gloria asked as tears began to well


    up in her eyes.


    Daniel chimed in as well. "I remember a famous doctor called James Dade. Can we contact him?"


    "No one knows where he is." Jared shook his head.


    Indeed, the only person who knew James had lost her memory, so it was impossible for them to reach


    that man.


    "Doesn''t he have an apprentice? Someone by the name of Ghost Hand, I think," Daniel responded.


    ''If we can''t get a hold of that doctor, contacting his apprentice should be good enough. It''s not


    impossible to reach that apprentice of his, right?'' Daniel wondered.


    "How do you know so much?" Jared replied to Daniel with a question of his own instead.


    In truth, Nicole was Ghost Hand, but even she could not treat herself.


    "I heard my brothers talking about this before," Daniel answered candidly.


    If he had not overheard their conversation, he would not have known this much either.


    Jared realized that Damien had tried his best to give Chloe the best treatment, though he had not been


    able to reach James or Ghost Hand. ''How would they react if they knew that Nicole is Ghost Hand?''


    "Does that mean we have no other choice now?" Gloria''s face nched.


    Even Damien had not been able to find them after all these years, which meant that it would be utterly


    impossible for them to do so too.


    "We''re thinking of a way, so don''t worry about it for now. I believe Nicole will remember everything,"


    Jaredforted her.


    "Actually, we aren''t really concerned about that. But you see, she''s the president of the Riddle


    Corporation now, so the loss of her memories would present a ton of challenges for her," Daniel said


    sternly.


    As parents, they were happy to get their daughter back. In fact, they did not wish for more, even if they


    could. However, Nicole was shouldering a lot of responsibility now, and above all, there were many


    individuals of devious character who had their eyes on her, which was why her parents were so worried


    about her.


    "Don''t worry, I will protect her," Jared said in a serious tone as he had sworn to never allow anyone or


    anything to hurt Nicole again.


    "Mom? Dad?" Nicole came downstairs after she had put Nn to sleep.


    They exchanged looks as they collectively ended the conversation. They did not want to burden Nicole


    because they were worried that it was detrimental to her health.


    "Are you heading out again?" Gloria asked when she saw that Nicole was still in her work attire.


    Nicole nodded. "I still have to take care of something in the office, and I''ll pick Lana up from school


    when I''m done with work."


    "Let''s go." Jared said, ready to leave as well.


    "Mom, dad, please take care of Nn for me," Nicole reminded.

    In response, they said, "Don''t worry, we''ll take good care of him."


    Relieved, Jared and Nicole got into the car. Jared then drove her to the headquarters of Riddle


    Corporation.


    "Everett is investigating you. I don''t know what''s going on in his head, but I''ve made sure that he would


    not be able to get any information about you," Jared informed Nicole softly.


    "Did I expose myself?" Nicole asked, not understanding why Everett was investigating her.


    Jared shook his head as he did not see anything weird going on with Everett as well. ''Maybe he just


    finds Nicole''s sudden return weird,'' Jared thought.


    "Got it." Nicole''s gaze darkened after she had heard Jared.


    Now that they had fired Mr. Walker and his man, Damien had probably grown even antsier. They


    figured that Damien might start taking action now.


    Nicole killed her thoughts when the car came to a halt, realizing that they were already at the


    headquarters of the Riddle Corporation.


    "Thank you. I''ll head upstairs now," Nicole said, opening the car door, and ready to leave.


    Jared pulled her back and grabbed her hand as he softly said, "I''ll take care of Everett, so don''t engage


    him too aggressively."


    "Okay, just the usual businesspetition," Nicole said with a smirk.


    She would not take the initiative to make a move on him, but she would definitely not sit idly by either.


    Even if she took no action, Damien''s side would not be sitting quietly, so it was expected that Everett


    would be on guard.
