Chapter 1710
At this moment, Nicole had already gotten down from the car. Under Max's watchful eye, they entered the garage in which the car was kept.
This entire time when Nicole had returned home, she had not been investigating. But she did not forget the basics. Once she had entered the garage, she began to look for traces of evidence.
The damaged car had been towed back there. Although it was in a terrible condition, there were still some clues to be found.
Max had never seen this side of Nicole. After they had entered the garage, they had examined the footprints on the floor and the car's body. While she was at it, she really looked as though she was professional policewoman in the midst of an investigation in a crime scene.
"Miss Riddle, you're amazing." Max always felt that he was very meticulous when he conducted his investigation, but most of it was done through CCTV.
Nicole's methods, however, were similar to that of a police officer's.
"Usually, I won't use such methods. But I'm in quite a rush this time," she said.
If someone else were to hurt her, she would usually have the patience to wait and lure them out. But since the person had
gotten Jared injured instead, she could not bear to wait.
Soon after, Nicole passed the fingerprints she had managed to collect to Max. "Go and find the identities of all who had touched this car. There must be someone suspicious."
Even if the driver wore gloves, the one who had tampered with the tire would leave some prints.
"Alright!"
After doing all these, Nicole looked at the time, and realized that it was already ten. After much consideration, she asked Max to send her to Jared's place.
At that time, Jared had already fallen asleep, so Nicole went on to sleep in the adjacent room.
The next morning, when Jared headed downstairs, Max told him that Nicole had stayed the night.
Jared was caught by surprise, for the woman had insisted that would not spend the night there. Yet, she was still worried about him, and came back anyway.
With a gentle smile, Jared made a cup of coffee for Nicole. Then, he asked the kitchen staff to make Nicole's favorite breakfast.
