Chapter 2197
"This kid," Nicole shook her head helplessly. "Don't bother with him. I'll take him and Lana out when I have the time,"
"Hey, it's fine. I like bringing them out," Lawrence said with a beam.
Nicole changed the topic, not wanting to trouble Lawrence too much. Times were different from when they were on Crescent Island. In addition, Lawrence had just come to San Joto too, and thus, he must be busy with other issues.
"Seeing that you've come all the way to meet me personally, is there something else?" Nicole asked softly.
Lawrence sighed without another mention about bringing the kids out on the weekend. "Nothing important. I just wanted to know if there is any progress with the electronic badge you've once helped me decipher?" i
Nicole shook her head, feeling somewhat shameful. "I'm sorry. Not yet."
"No, it's alright. I was just asking anyways," Lawrence comforted Nicole as he noticed her downcast eyes.
"I'm still trying. I will let you know when there is progress," Nicole said, her gaze glinting with a touch of determination.
Nicole knew the value of the electronic badge to Lawrence. Lawrence had aided her so much in the past, so she had always reminded herself that she had to help Lawrence decipher this electronic badge. However, up until now, there had been zero progress. This made her determined to work harder.
"It really doesn’t matter. Don't put too much pressure on yourself," Lawrence comforted.
Although he wanted results, he did not mean to rush her. If she could not crack it now, all he could do was wait.
"Alright," Nicole nodded gently, deciding to decipher and obtain the badge for him as soon as possible.
"Nicole, you..." Lulu entered Nicole's office and paused midsentence when she saw Lawrence.
Lawrence shot a glance at Lulu, stood up, and said, "It seems that you have work to do. Well, I'll get going first."
