Nicole gave her a chilly glance, her voice impassive.
"Up to you to believe it or not."
When Chloe heard her seemingly provocative words, she was so pissed off that she immediately stood up and pointed at Nicole.
"Don't be so full of yourself so soon! Even if the two of you have something on, it's impossible for Mr.Johnston to be serious toward you.Just you wait for the day of you being dumped to come!"
Nicole could not be bothered to respond, but Mr.Riddle Sr.violently slammed his walking stick as he yelled.
"Chloe, shut your mouth!"
It only then did Chloe reluctantly shut her mouth, but her gaze toward Nicole stil] had resentment in it.
After seeing Jared's unusual treatment of Nicole, Chloe's mental state was out of sorts.
Both Damien and Dexter looked at Nicole and did not expect her to really gain the favor of the Johnston family.
By the looks of things, they are close enough that Jared would come to the Riddle family manor to support Nicole.
‘How could we dare to displease her in the future?' Mr.Riddle Sr.pondered for a moment before finally asking Nicole a rather strange question.
"Nicole, your Uncle Dillon seemed to have looked for Lyana to hold us back.How did it become Christo in the end? Without the intervention of the Johnston family, we might not have walked out of that place."
Nicole looked at Mr.Riddle Sr..Her eyes were calm as she answered.
"Christo Rogers wanted to get a special medicine from me.He probably got word of Lyana and Dillon's plans, so he got Shawn to hijack the plan.On the one hand, he told Lyana that he would help her detain you guys, but in reality, he wanted to use your safety as leverage against me."
‘So that's the reason"
Both Damien and Dexter wanted to say something, but thinking that Nicole had inexplicably cured Mr.Riddle Sr.and had also allowed him to recover too easily, she might really have some special medicine on her.
‘This Nicole has too many secrets on her"
