Chapter 2318


    “We should go down too,” Sean said to Nicole calmly.


    Nicole shrugged, standing up. “Let’s go then.”


    It was best to leave discreetly after achieving their goals since the trap had already been set. Soon the


    two went downstairs and back to the dining table.


    “Nicole, is your arm alright?” Gloria asked in concern.


    Nicole smirked andforted her, “No big deal. I applied some ointment. It’ll be better after a few days


    of rest.”


    Gloria continued to worry about Nicole. She decided to wait until they got home to ask again. She


    understood Nicole could not simply use Karen with so many people present. It was best to settle


    down for now.


    “Since you’re fine,e join us,” Mr. Riddle Sr. said while his gazended on Nicole’s arm.


    “Don’t worry, Grandpa. I’m fine.” Nicole chuckled, deliberately moving her arms.


    “Be careful. Don’t move it around,” Mr. Riddle Sr. admonished with concern.


    Nicole then turned to the crowd, reassuring, “There’s no need to worry, guys. Let’s eat.”


    “Right,e on. Eat up.” Karen put on a polite smile. With a touch of servility, she added, “I’m just d


    you’re okay.


    Otherwise, I would’ve med myself to death.”


    “Sorry to have troubled you.” Nicole nced at Karen meaningfully.


    Karen’s smile faltered for a moment. She inexplicably felt as if Nicole had seen through her.


    Something shed in Nicole’s eyes. Then she ignored Karen, nning to get even with herter.


    “Mr. Riddle Sr.” The house butler came over. With a grim expression, he spoke softly into Mr. Riddle


    Sr.’s ears, “We have a break-in in the house. Something’s missing in the study.”


    “What happened?” Mr. Riddle Sr. was livid instantly, thinking,1 Who would’ve dared to target the Riddle


    family?’


    “I’ve checked. The study was clearly rummaged through by someone. But it’s still unclear what went


    missing,” The house butler said gravely. The house butler knew the study was filled with important


    items for Mr. Riddle Sr.


    “I’ll go to take a look.” Mr. Riddle Sr. went upstairs with big strides.


    “What’s going on?” Although the house butler’s voice was low, everyone could sense that something


    had happened. They were all quite puzzled at Mr. Riddle Sr.’s sudden rush to go upstairs.


    “We should take a look too,” Karen inexplicably felt this was something quite crucial for Mr. Riddle Sr.,


    so she wanted to go and check the situation out.

    “Karen, I think we should wait for Dad toe down,” Emma suggested softly. Emma felt like this was


    not the right time to intervene in the situation. If Mr. Riddle Sr. wanted them to know, they would


    naturally get hold of the information. On the contrary, Mr. Riddle Sr. would get displeased if they went


    over without his consent.


    “What if it’s important? We should help him out, you know,” Karen added, reluctant to give up. She then


    looked at Dillion, “What do you think?”


    “I’m with Damien,” Dillion’s gaze darkened. He had a feeling that they had to keep a low profile on this


    matter, and it would be better to follow the crowd. If the others were going, they would naturally follow.


    However, if the others were not going, they would be the subject of gossip if they went alone.


    Karen looked at him. “Damien, Dad looked off. Why don’t we go take a look?”


    Damien remained silent before saying, “It’s better to wait.”


    Since no one was going to disrupt Mr. Riddle Sr., Karen could only clench her teeth in anger.
