Chapter 2467
'So, Snow's in a vegetative state and James is in jail. Raine has vanished, and no one knows where she is. Meanwhile, Dillion and Karen seem to be doing alright. But now, they're planning to sell their house and move to a hotel?' Nicole wondered.
Lulu's expression then shifted to one of seriousness. "I've gotten some folks to watch them. We are trying to figure out their plans."
"Alright," Nicole responded. "We'll just have to watch and see what Dillion and Karen are planning."
Then, she paused, picking up the phone to call Preston.
"Nicole, what's up?" Preston's voice blared out once he answered.
"Did you know your parents are selling the family house?" Nicole asked directly.
Preston paused, clearly taken aback, before replying, "No. What happened?"
"No major reason." Nicole said, filling him in on what Lulu had discovered.
"I see," Preston sighed. "Guess we should let them decide."
Nicole hesitated. "You know, if you want to keep the family mansion, I can buy it back for you. It's part of the reason why
I called. I'd like to help."
In return, Preston thanked her. "I appreciate the offer, but I think I'll pass. If I need a house in the future, I can buy another."
In truth, he was done; he did not wish to bother with the family drama any longer.
"Alright then," Nicole replied, noting Preston's feelings.
"Thanks for having my back," Preston said with gratitude, aware of Nicole's genuine concern.
