Lulu kept her eyes on Harvey until he had stepped out of the restaurant.
Then, she issued a sigh of relief, "Finally, he's gone."
"Let's eat. We need to head back after we're done eating." Nicole remained calm, as if Harvey's
appearance had not affected her at all.
Lulu looked outside again, and in a soft voice, she asked," What do you think happened between Mr.
Ellison and Harvey? They seem to be behaving oddly."
The two of them had never thought of looking for Mr. Ellison when they decided to go to the restaurant.
All they had in mind was to have lunch and return to the office.
Unexpectedly, they bumped into Harvey, who proceeded to harass them. So, they had come up with a
last minute decision to find Mr. Ellison, just so they could get him to chase Harvey away. Little did they
know that they would happen upon an unexpected discovery.
Such was probably why Mr. Ellison had been staying in the institute recently. He had even moved his
belongings into the institute now. Therefore, it would not be a stretch to say that the two of them had
issues with one another.
"You've been living in San Joto all this time. Have you heard anything?" Nicole queried.
Nicole did not remember anything. After all, she had not been living in San Joto for five years already,
and thus, she would not know much even if she still remembered everything. At this point, it was a
question of whether was up to date with whatever had happened between the Ellisons or not.
Lulu shook her head. "I really don't know anything."
Whatever Lulu knew about was pretty much public information, and that was Harvey had taken over
everything from the Ellison family in a short span of time while Mr.
Ellison had retired and was enjoying his life free of most responsibilities. He was satisfied with watching
over the institute.
Nicole pursed her lips and said, "There is definitely something wrong. I'll ask Jared about it when I get
back."
She thought that Jared would know something about it.
After all, Jared had collaborated with Mr. Ellison when it came to a myriad of projects, all of which were
discontinued because of Harvey.
"Jared might know something about it." Lulu nodded.
"Let's eat." Nicole smiled.
"Alright." Lulu nodded and continued eating in peace.
When they came out of the restaurant after lunch, Nicole turned her gaze to the Royal Creek Institute,
her eyes darkening.
Although she did not remember much about the past, she had an inexplicable feeling about the place
from the two encounters she had with Mr. Ellison. These meetings had given her a better
understanding about who she was and everything that had occurred here.
With Mr. Ellison's prominent status, and Harvey's outstanding performances, they should be prancing
around in high spirits. Yet, Mr. Ellison appeared to be deeply hurt within. This had led Nicole to believe
that something heartbreaking must have happened between Mr. Ellison and Harvey.
"Nicole, let's go," Lulu called out upon noticing that Nicole was not getting into the car.
Nicole regained her composure and got into the car, whereupon they drove off and headed back to the
headquarters of the Riddle Corporation.
"Why do you think Harvey spotted you and followed you there today? I don't think he was here just to
watch you eat. Is it possible he was here because of DillCorp and NandoCorp?" Lulu asked.
After all, Harvey had only left them alone after they had asked Mr. Ellison to come over. Otherwise,
Harvey would not have allowed them to eat in peace that easily: he must have looked for them with
some sort of ulterior motive in mind.
"At the very least, he's here to get a scoop on what's going on," Nicole replied calmly as if she had read
Harvey's mind.
"Is he worried that we'll side with DillCorp?" Lulu frowned. With Harvey proactively aiding Everett, it was
obvious that DillCorp had gained the upper hand. But now that Harvey had probably discovered that
Nicole had been providing assistance to Dillion's family in secret, they were worried if things would
become even more difficult for them in the future.
"I guess he must have noticed it previously, but he did not have any evidence to back it up," Nicole
analyzed.
If this was not the case, Harvey would not have summoned the courage to meet her face to face. And
while he likely still did not possess any evidence needed to support his case, him showing up
personally was probably a way to pressure Nicole to step back.
"Oh, so he has begun to suspect us." Lulu widened her eyes as she came to a realization.
"Yeah, that's possible." Nicole nodded.
However, she was not too nervous about it. Even if Harvey were to get any evidence, there was
nothing he could do. Nicole did not break any laws, so him losing would be nothing but a testament of
his incompetence.
Feeling a little worried, Lulu asked, "In that case, should we be more careful from now onwards?"
Nicole's eyes darkened as she replied, "There's no need for that. We will be seeing the results soon."
When the time came, they would win, and everything would be rendered a fair game. With that said,
nothing else was worth their time and effort at the moment.
"Oh." Lulu nodded, thinking that what Nicole said made sense.
In fact, Lulu began to wonder, 'It'll be great if Harvey knows about it. One can imagine how funny his This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
expression would be right now.'
Nicole glanced at Lulu, and almost instantly, she understood what she was thinking. This got Nicole to
burst out laughing.
