Chapter 2675
Nicole and Jared accompanied the kids to bed for a long time before the kids were soundly asleep.
Back in their room, Nicole sighed with concern. "The kids were terrified by today's event."
"They'll get better," Jared reassured, patting Nicole's back.
Looking at Jared, Nicole frowned and asked, "Who do you think could be behind this?"
The only culprit Nicole could think of was Harvey. At the same time, she felt Harvey would not be that reckless and stupid to do such a thing. However, other than Harvey, Nicole could not think of another candidate. She did not know anyone else in San Joto trying to mess with her. She could deduce that today's incident was ultimately targeted at her, but she could not figure out the mastermind.
'Lawrence?!' As this thought crossed her mind, Nicole instantly dismissed the idea. She refused to believe that Lawrence would hurt her kids. If it was not Lawrence either, Nicole could only think of the people who hunted her down when she first came back to San Joto. ’Could it be that group of people got impatient after not finding any clues?'
"Let's wait for Max's investigation results. There's no point guessing now with no leads." Jared comforted Nicole, holding her hand and bringing her to the bed. "Get some rest. Maybe we'll find out more tomorrow."
"Yeah, alright," Nicole replied. She lay down on the bed, but she just could not sleep.
Jared gently held Nicole in his arms, feeling her restlessness. Knowing she could not sleep, he landed a soft kiss on her forehead and reassured her, "We're capable of protecting them."
Jared could understand Nicole's anxiousness. When Nicole first got back to San Joto, she was chased away. Someone suddenly appeared to kidnap her children. Jared knew Nicole was worried for them.
"Yeah," Nicole agreed, her eyes filled with determination. She had to protect her kids, no matter what.
Meanwhile, Lawrence got a phone call from Ian in Mecrounia. His tone was angry when he barked, “What did you say?! Someone dared to lay their hands on Nolan and Lana?!"
