Chapter 1953
For the past five years, Jared had instructed Zeke, Preston, and others to erase all traces of Nicole. In Hustuaburg,
nobody could find any information about Nicole. Even if investigations were conducted overseas, those involved
would only discover scattered remnants. So, even if Nicole attempted to investigate on her own, she wouldn't
uncover much.
Niki let out a sigh and said, "I didn't lose the information from that day. My son accidentally dropped it out of the
window." She didn't want to provide further explanation, so she could only attribute it to an accident.
However, Jared still sensed her unease. 'Accidentally?' he thought, 'That brat must have done it on purpose!' Just
the mere thought of Nolan, who had been trying to set Nicole up with his so-called "godpa," made Jared feel the
urge to give him a good beating!
"Well... if you don't mind, could you give me another copy?" Niki pondered that this time, she would thoroughly

Jared looked at Nicole intently and suddenly changed his mind. "I don't have another copy."
Feeling impatient at his refusal, Niki grew frustrated. "How is it possible that you don't have a copy?" she cursed in
her mind. "Don't be so childish. Just give me another copy quickly. Otherwise, how am I supposed to find out about
my own past..."
She genuinely felt curious about her own history. Despite having offended many people in the past, she couldn't
afford to care about that now. After all, her child's father stood right in front of her, and she needed to address this
matter!nvëlx.o
"Want to know about your past?" Jared replied, his tone slightly challenging. "Then stick with me, and I'll personally
fill you in."
Niki blinked in surprise. "What do you mean?"
Jared's eyes narrowed slightly. "I mean, if you leave me, no one will ever be able to tell you about your past
because... I've already had someone erase everything related to you from the internet."
"You had someone erase it?" She had suspected something fishy all along. As someone as prominent as Jared, his
wife should have been well-known, but Niki couldn't find any connection between the name Nicole and him, no
matter how extensively she searched.
"For the sake of your safety, it was necessary," he said, his gaze suddenly deepening.
Niki fell into silence, a strange sense of belief in his words washing over her. However, she couldn't fully accept it
and reluctantly voiced her concerns, "So, you're saying that whatever you tell me is the truth, and I have no way to
argue if you're lying."
Jared saw Nicole pouting and let out a cold laugh. "Whether you believe it or not is up to you. My responsibility is to
fill you in."
Resigned, Niki sighed but could only agree, "Understood..." After a brief silence, she had a sudden thought and
asked," Who lives in the neighboring estate? Do I... know them?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSince Jared had promised to reveal the past to her, Niki decided to seize the opportunity and inquire about anything
she vaguely remembered. However, she didn't expect Jared's gaze to darken suddenly.
"To find out about that, you'll have to hear it directly from them," he replied.
Jared couldn't reveal every single detail about the Riddle family to her, so it would be better to let her hear from
them in person.
"They will tell me?" Niki was taken aback, instinctively feeling a strong connection with that family. Perhaps she was
even intimately acquainted with them!
"If you want to know that badly, then come with me," Jared replied. With those words, he simply took hold of her
hand and pulled her out of the study.
"Hey! Where are you taking me?" Niki struggled in the hallway.
Jared remained indifferent and didn't respond.
Hearing the commotion, Nolan peeked out and immediately grew concerned when he saw his mother being
forcefully taken away. Ignoring everything else, he hurriedly followed, trying to catch up.
