Chapter 2626
After chatting for a while, Ellar left.
Nicole went on to gulp the cold drink that Ellar had brought for her before leaning back against the couch, her eyes darkening as she drifted off into a reverie.
Time flew by, and three days passed in the blink of an eye.
Chloe's so-called 'Ghost Hand' had finally arrived in San Joto, and so, she naturally turned to Mr. Riddle Sr., whom she proceeded to urge to pay for the treatment.
"Grandpa, let me handle this matter," Nicole said after receiving a call from Mr. Riddle Sr.
"Okay. But if something really happens, she might be on guard, so be careful," Mr. Riddle Sr. reminded her.
"Don't worry, Grandpa," Nicole comforted.
After hanging up, Nicole turned to look at Patricia and asked, "How's the investigation going?"
"They've indeed made preparations. We can't find any abnormalities. If we didn't already know that this Ghost Hand was fake, it would be hard to suspect her," Patricia said in a solemn tone of voice.
The people who were investigating Chloe had not made any progress and thus, were not able to produce any substantial evidence.
Nicole's eyes narrowed as she thought, 'Ah, I see now why Chloe got her imposter to make an appearance in San Joto so quickly. It seems that she has prepared in advance.'
"What should we do?" Patricia asked, feeling a little troubled.
She was wondering if the people involved should allow Nicole to admit that she was the actual Ghost Hand in person. On second thought, however, it might not be a good idea for Nicole to confess to that right now.
"Just let them arrange the surgery." Nicole stated, her gaze frigid and blank.
"Surgery?!" Patricia was shocked. 'Are we really going to let Chloe undergo surgery?'
"Yeah. Have people keep an eye on them and monitor their every move," Nicole ordered.
As for the rest, everything would be made clear in due time.
