"Understood." Patricia replied, and hurried off to make a reservation.
After she had gotten Royal Creek Institute's address, she left the office with Nicole and headed there.
Arriving at Royal Creek Institute, Nicole entered Thomas's house while Patricia waited outside.
Looking at Nicole as she entered, Thomas Ellison smiled. "I knew it was you."
Seeing that their lunch had arrived, Nicole smiled, "I missed you, so I came over to pay you a visit."
Thomas made his way to the living room, looked at Nicole and said, "You don't have to lie to me.
Harvey made another mess for you to deal with again, didn't he?"
Nicole was quite shocked, "How did you know?”
Thomas had been resting and recovering as of late.
Although he did seem a tad more energetic, Nicole was sure that Thomas had not gone back to work
just yet. Therefore, it would be next to impossible for him to be privy to the happenings of the outside
world.
"The nurse has left." Thomas shook his head.
He was not bothered about the nurse's absence as he assumed that Harvey had found it pointless to
get someone to keep an eye on him. Afterall, Nicole rarely paid him visits these days.
But seeing Nicole appear again today, Thomas immediately understood the reason as to why Harvey
had fired the nurse.
He had created more issues for Nicole to deal with, so there was no need for anyone to spy on Thomas
any longer. His whistleblowers would also no longer serve any purposes.
"Let's eat." Thomas invited Nicole for lunch, knowing that he would not be able to explain the situation
in a short span of a few minutes.
"Alright." Nicole replied and sat down with Thomas, whereupon they began to dig into their lunch.
"What problems are Harvey giving you again?" Thomas casually enquired.
He was simply asking about it as he could not be of any help to her. Harvey would not listen to him, and
he had no means of assisting Nicole.
"It's nothing major. You've also said it yourself; it is a problem."
And so long as it remained a problem, it would be easy to solve. Nicole was genuinely there just to
check up on Thomas. At the same time, she had done so because of Harvey as well. Nicole would only
be able to be at ease when, and only when she knew that Thomas was safe.
Thomas then looked at Nicole and sighed. "It seems that Harvey will run into problems of his own too."
Thomas knew Nicole very well, and it was obvious that
Nicole was ready to take an eye for an eye.
Raising a brow, Nicole jokingly asked, "In that case, will you feel hurt or stop me from doing it?"
"I won't." Thomas replied, having neither the reason nor energy to stop her.
"Everything's fine as long as you won't feel hurt. I guess Harvey has not reached mental maturity. He'd
probably be more honest and considerate after learning a few lessons." Nicole smirked.
As Harvey had always been stirring crap for her, all of his doings had led her to feel this way about him.
While Harvey seemed mature and cool on the outside, a petulant, childish soul still resided within him.
He had always acted as if he could be in control of everything. Yet, he had failed to realize that
everything would not have been this smooth for him if Thomas had not stepped in to aid him since his
return to San Joto. In fact, Harvey's success had caused him to lose himself. He had willingly allowed
his vengeance to blind him.
While Nicole had no right to comment on anything that had happened in the past, Thomas was still
Harvey's grandfather. He was the one who had poured his heart and soul out for Harvey.
Looking up into Thomas's eyes, Nicole began to feel sad for Thomas.
When Thomas was informed of Nicole's plan, he remained silent for a moment.
Then, he let out a sigh and said, "You guys should make your own decisions in accordance with your
own needs."
It was not that Thomas did not care about them; everything that was transpiring beyond the walls of
Royal Creek was beyond his reach and authority. If anything, it seemed to him that he had little to no
control over anyone now.
Nicole raised her eyebrows and glanced at Thomas, whereupon she joked, "Mr. Ellison? Don't you
want that good grandson of yours from the past to return?" Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
Thomas's face froze for a moment, and he looked away. "It was all an act from the very beginning."
Harvey was never what one would call a good person. He had only ever appeared to be courteous and
obedient on the outside. After all, he had returned with a purpose, and a spiteful one at that.
"He's just blinded by anger."
It mattered little whether it was an act or not. If Harvey could act it out, he would be able to do it. It also
meant that he could choose to have this side of him.
