Chapter 2929


    "We always tell the truth," Gary said earnestly.


    Nicole, smiling,plimented the group, "You''ve all improved a lot since five years ago." Their


    conversation flowed effortlessly, and before they knew it, lunch was over.


    As Nicole and Jared prepared to leave, Gary said, "Let''s catch up again soon.


    I''m looking forward to your good news." Nicole nodded, understanding he was referring to the Water


    Crest program.


    "Definitely," she replied.


    After Nicole and Jared drove off, Preston also left, leaving Gary reflecting on how nice it was to work


    with Nicole again and how much things had changed for the better over the past five years.


    Back in the car, Nicole touched herptop bag and said to Jared, “It looks like we''ll have results soon."


    Jared, holding her hand gently, agreed, "Yes, very soon." Nicole smiled at him, "After all this time, some


    things are finallying to an end." "Have you thought about how you''ll ept the oue?" Jared


    asked softly.


    Nicole nodded, "I''ve thought about it.


    We always have to face things, sooner orter." ‘Perhaps it''s better to uncover the truth early.


    It might simplify a lot of things,’ she thought to herself.


    Jared, sensing Nicole''s resolve,forted her with a gentle hug and a reassuring squeeze on her


    shoulder.


    “Whatever happens, I can face it now," Nicole said calmly, having considered all possible oues.


    Jared kissed her forehead, relieved she wasn''t affected by the uncertainty.


    When they arrived at Riddle Corporation, Nicole got out of the car and went inside thepany.


    Jared instructed Max to drive off, then received an update: Damien''swyers seemed to have given up


    on his case.


    "Given up?" Jared''s eyes narrowed slightly, sensing something unusual.


    "Yes, but something feels off,"" Max analyzed, suspecting that Scorpio wouldn''t abandon their efforts so


    easily.


    "Keep aclose eye on Damien," Jared instructed, suspecting Scorpio and Damien might have other


    ns.


    As Jared''s car moved away, his eyes reflected a glint of cold determination...


    Three days passed quickly, and Damien''s trial began.


    He was to face the consequences of his actions.


    Daniel asked Nicole and Jared at breakfast if they nned to attend the trial.


    "No need, we''ll just wait for the results," Nicole responded, not wanting to waste time on the hearing.
