Chapter 2329


    “Yes, sir.”


    After the servants had left, Nicole handed the file to Mr. Riddle Sr. and said, “I’m here to deliver this, of


    course.”


    “What is this?” He opened the file, and upon reading its contents, his eyes widened in astonishment.


    “Nicole, this…”


    “Well, thanks to your wise nning, we’ve managed to retrieve the stolen items sessfully,” Nicole


    stated, believing that he would understand the intended meaning behind her words.


    Indeed, upon hearing Nicole’s words, Mr. Riddle Sr.’s face nched.


    He had tipped her off earlier, so Nicole’s implication was that he had warned her about Damien’s


    frequent visits to the house, prompting her to be vignt, and ultimately leading to the recovery of the


    property deed.


    As it turned out, Damien had a specific purpose for returning – to bribe the two gardeners, seize the


    opportunity when everyone had gathered around, and steal the deed to the property. If the deed had


    ended up in Damien’s hands, the consequences would have been dire.


    “Thank you for your hard work.’ Mr. Riddle Sr.’s tone grew heavy.


    “It’s okay, Grandpa. You can leave it to us to investigate


    Everett. It’s likely that he won’t discover anything in the end, and I doubt anyone would guess that the


    deed is back in your hands. You can focus on keeping it safe after that.


    Don’t worry,” Nicole said with a smile.


    Mr. Riddle Sr.’s sullen mood improved, and that was when he shed his granddaughter a wry smile


    and said, “Alright, I’ll follow your advice.”


    Damien frequently feigned concern for him, an act which he found suspicious. Now, his true intentions


    had been revealed, and they were truly nothing short of despicable. Fortunately, Mr. Riddle Sr. had a


    smart, sensible, and capable granddaughter. He knew that as long as he entrusted things to Nicole,


    every issue would be perfectly resolved.

    After giving her a nod of approval, Mr. Riddle Sr. advised,” Let’s put an end to this discussion for now.


    Try and refrain from mentioning it in the future. If the information leaks out, Damien and the others


    might give you grief again.”


    “Don’t worry, Grandpa,” Nicole replied with a smile, showing him that he need not worry without


    expressing her agreement or disagreement to the matter.


    She would naturally think things through and gain a clear understanding of the issue at hand either


    way. Besides, she would never back down on what she needed to fight for. Still, she did not want Mr.


    Riddle Sr. to concern himself with these problems anymore, so she was determined to give him the


    best resolution she could find.


    Seeing how confident Nicole was, Mr. Riddle Sr. shed her a contented smile, having understood


    what she was thinking. And after chatting with him for a while, Nicole left the family manor.


    Once she was outside, she issued a sigh of relief. Thankfully, the issue had been n. Anything that


    woulde her way next would be left to the discretion of Damien and Everett.


    She understood her grandfather’s concerns, but even if she were to quietly withdraw from the situation,


    Everett would eventually figure out that it was her, though he would not have the evidence needed


    against her.


    Furthermore, the conflict between Damien’s family and hers would only intensify over time. She was


    fully aware that this conflict would just continue to escte and that there would be no end to it until a


    final resolution had been reached.


    With a darkened gaze, Nicole pondered on, knowing that she needed to keep an eye on the candidates


    eligible to be the next heir to the fortunes of the Riddle family. To her, no one else was qualified, apart


    from Sean.


    This is especially true in the case of Everett. If the Riddle family ended up in his hands, the other


    families would not have it easy. This would only lead to critical concerns about the future developments


    of the Riddle family.


    As the sun set and the afterglow lingered, everyone gathered in June’s small apartment unit.


    “Lulu, you’re impressive! You’ve quietly slipped in ahead of me. When are you nning to get married?


    Have you set a date?” June teased with augh.


    It was evident that she was genuinely happy for her friend.


    Lulu yfully red at June and said, “You’re bombarding me with questions all at once. Which one


    should I answer first?”
