Chapter 2654
“It is exactly because of this very concern that he needs to use Nn to achieve what he wants.” Jared
held Nicole’s hands gently.
“At the end of the day, none of us have seen the Water Crest before.
No one knows what it looks like either.

The only way he could crack it and not catch your attention is by enlisting Nn’s help.” If Lawrence
approached Nicole directly, the oue would be predictable; Nicole would be able to tell that the
object in question was the Water Crest.
In addition to that, Lawrence would have to forego his right to own the Water Crest, hence he would not
risk it.fter hearing Jared’s exnation, Nicole nodded.
“You’re right.” “I’ll get Max to verify it.” Jared’s eyes became frosty.
If that was indeed the truth, Jared would never allow Lawrence within an inch of the Water Crest.
For someone as evil as Lawrence to own the Water Crest would spell unimaginable disaster for
everyone else.
As Jared and Nicole were discussing the issue, they did not realize that Nn was keeping an eye on
them.
Although he appeared to be ying with Lana, Nn had been eavesdropping, and had heard every
single detail of their conversation.
Nn nervously bit his lips and balled his knuckle into a fist.
He seemed to be hurt by that exchange.
Meanwhile, at the secret base camp in Mecrounia, Lawrence was ring at theputer screen after
he had logged off.
“How was it? Did you not make it?” Everett asked impatiently.
“We can’t rush it.
This needs to be done step by step.” Lawrence rolled his eyes at Everett as he responded.
“Are you sure you have more time? Things havee to this.” Everett replied with dissatisfaction.
Hearing that, Lawrence red at him coldly and said,” You’re in no position to instruct me on what to
do.
Besides, you’d be an idiot to underestimate that little kid.
He’s not an ordinary five-year-old kid.
You’ll regret it in the future for underestimating him now.” kept mum thereafter.
After a moment of silence, Lawrence said, “I have my own ways around this issue.
You better not ruin it.” “I know, but you should also know that we really do not have much time left,”
Everett said, whirled around, and left.
Lawrence became furious as he red at Everett’s back.
If it was not for the Water Crest, Lawrence would never have tolerated such behavior.
In fact, Lawrence was sure that Nicole was well aware of Everett’s whereabouts.
Therefore, Nicole must also be suspicious of Lawrence now.
At this point, it was all or nothing; Lawrence would suffer defeat if he failed to obtain the Water Crest.
After Everett had left the room, all of the humility he had feigned disappeared right off the bat.
“Hmm! If I was eligible to be the bearer of the Water Crest, what makes you think you would ever have
the chance to own it? Just you wait! I’m not someone you can push around.
It Then, Everett headed to his room after he had gathered his thoughts.
Sitting there in wait was all he had been doing for the past week.
He could not go anywhere else, and if that was not torturous enough, he still had to put up with
Lawrence’s antiques on a daily basis.
When is this going to end?’ Everett wondered.
Everett was annoyed as all of these thoughts raced across his mind.
However, he knew that it would be in his best interest to tolerate whatever Lawrence threw at him.
Once Lawrence, Jared and Nicole had been weakened in their war with each other, Everett would
seize the opportunity to snatch the crest.
The next morning, the sun shone bright and warm.
After breakfast, Nn and Lana prepared for school.
However, Tia did not show up, and as things stood, the kids would be runningte for school.
“Tia will be okay, right? She’s neverte.” Lana mumbled in concern.
“Mom, should we check on Tia?” Nn began to worry.
Just as Nicole was about to walk over to them, she saw Stanley approaching them.
Seeing this, Nicole could not help but frown.
“Stanley, the kids are going to bete.
We’ll send them to school now, but you should know that Tia is not around.
I’m not sure if something has happened to her.
Can you please check on her?”
