Chapter 1520
"What's going on? Your parents are also here for the Riddle family dinner?” Harvey asked, the strange feeling in his gut growing heavier by the second.
At that point, he began wondering what had happened to Nicole. What did she do to draw so many figures of influence here?
"Oh, Nicole got involved in a pretty significant matter. Of course, it makes sense that we should be here! It's not just the Bradford family. Look at the whole place. All ten of the families are here in full. Even the ones that did not bother to join us had sent their representatives over. I heard that there are still large families whose representatives are rushing over now. This time around, the Riddle family must be enjoying the prestige.” Edwin mused as he scanned the surroundings.

Ryder's face darkened, and he asked Gary, "Didn't you join the Math Olympiad with Nicole before this? How is your relationship with her?"
Gary shot his brother a glance. "Why are you asking me such questions too?”
"Someone else has also asked you this?” Ryder asked, feeling a little embarrassed,
Gary looked at his parents, who were already socializing with the people around them. "Mum and dad, they've been asking me about it since two days back. What happened? Why are there so many powerful families here visiting the Riddle family? What does this have to do with Nicole?"
