Jared''s lips curved slightly, and he gently kissed Nicole''s forehead, saying," Let''s rest early tonight; we


    might receive good news first thing tomorrow." "Hopefully." Nicole replied with a yful smile, pulling


    Jared toward the bed.


    The next day dawned bright and sunny.


    After breakfast, Nicole and Jared dropped off Nn and Lana and then headed to Riddle Corporation.


    Getting out of the car, Nicole gave Jared a smile and said, "I''m heading up." "Alright," Jared nodded


    slightly, "I''lle to pick you up after work."


    Watching Jared''s car drive away, Nicole turned and entered thepany building.


    Inside the car, Max spoke in a low voice, "Mr. Johnston, there''s still no news from Zane''s end. Could it


    have failed?" "Let''s wait a bit longer." Even if it was a failure, they should have received some sort of


    update from Zane.


    This text is ? N?velDrama/.Org.


    "I wonder if something happened," Max muttered quietly.


    As they were speaking, Jared’s phone rang.


    After seeing the caller ID, Jared answered, "How did it go?" "It''s a sess. Sambawe has agreed to


    cooperate with US, seeking redemption for his crimes," Zane''s voice came through.


    Jared understood; it seemed they had managed to rescue the person smoothly. Zane hadn''t contacted


    them earlier probably because he was yet to persuade Sambawe.


    I''ll proceed with the n as intended," Jared said, his gaze intensifying.


    "Alright, my people will coordinate with yours," Zane responded.


    After hanging up, Jared''s eyes narrowed slightly, and hemanded Max with a chilled tone, "We can


    move now." "Yes," Max responded respectfully.


    Meanwhile, at Riddle Corporation, in Nicole''s office.


    Nicole received Jared''s message and her lips curled into a slight, icy smile upon reading it.


    "Everett, you can''t escape this time," she said, her cold gaze filled with determination.


    "What?" Lulu, who came in to deliver some documents, caught the tail end of Nicole’sment.


    Waving her phone, Nicole replied, "Zane was sessful." "That means we can proceed!" Lulu''s voice


    was tinged with excitement.


    "Yes, the operation begins now." While she wasn''t fully aware of Jared''s n, she trusted that it was


    wless.


    "Has Doretta secured the evidence then?" Lulu pondered aloud.


    "I assume so; otherwise, we probably wouldn''t be moving forward just yet," Nicole said, her expression


    turning serious. She believed everything was proceeding smoothly.


    "But will Doretta be safe?" Lulu furrowed her brows in concern.


    Understanding Lulu''s worry, Nicole took a deep breath and reassured, "I think if there were any


    emergencies, Doretta would be able to protect herself."


    Lulu sped her hands together in a silent prayer, "Let''s hope everything goes smoothly. It has to."
