Chapter 3219
"What does Lawrence want by helping Everett this time?" Max wondered, puzzled by Lawrence's continued support for Everett, especially when Everett seemed to lack significant power. It didn't fit with Lawrence's usual behavior.
"We're not sure, but Lawrence wouldn't act without expecting something in return," Nicole said, thinking about Lawrence's possible motives. He must have a reason for helping Everett.
Max asked, "So, what should we do now?" "Zane told Doretta to gather evidence secretly, and then we'll make arrests, " Nicole explained. "But for now, we need to wait and let Doretta do her job.
"Got it," Max agreed, understanding the importance of Doretta's mission.
"Daddy, Mommy, why aren't you getting out of the car?" Nolan and Lana approached, tapping on the car door.
Nicole opened the door, smiling. "We were just about to." "Oh, we thought you might have to go out again," Lana said, visibly relieved.
They had seen Jared’s car arrive but noticed that Jared and Nicole hadn't gotten out, so they were worried they might be leaving again.
Jared lifted Lana into his arms, saying gently, "We just had some things to sort out, but now we can go inside."
After Jared spoke, he carried Lana toward the mansion.
"Mommy, has something happened recently?" Nolan asked, holding Nicole's hand, his expression serious.
Seeing Nolan's perceptive demeanor, Nicole smiled slightly. "Nothing much, it will be resolved soon."
Nolan nodded, understanding that there was an issue. He thought to himself, 'No wonder Daddy and Mommy have been coming home late, or sometimes not at all recently.'
