Chapter 2207
"I'm leaving too," said Daniel. He had something on his mind that he needed to clarify with Nicole.
Sensing his intentions, Nicole reassured him, "Dad, you should stay and accompany Grandpa. I can't say
everything's fine with the company, but I can assure you that my brothers and I can manage."
At this moment, even if she had said everything was fine with the company, her father would not believe it. It was
better to be honest and alleviate her father's worries.
"Make sure you take care of yourselves. If it becomes too much to handle, come back and let us know so we can
find a solution together," Gloria advised her daughter, concerned.
"Don't worry, Mom. It's nothing serious. We can handle it." Confidently, Nicole waved them goodbye and left.
Seeing Nicole’s confident attitude, Mr. Riddle Sr.'s eyes filled with admiration. "Not bad. That's how the descendants

"Yes, the kids have all grown up. They can handle things on their own now." Daniel and Gloria nodded, satisfied.
After Nicole left, she went directly to the Riddle Corporation.
Nicole called out to the secretary before entering her own office, "Lulu, come to my office."
After a while, Lulu slowly entered the room with her head down. "Nicole, is there something you need?" she asked.
Hearing the hoarseness in her friend's voice, Nicole looked at her with a frown. It was then she noticed that Lulu
had been keeping her head down.
"What happened to you?" Nicole asked, eyes full of confusion.
"I'm fine. Just give me something to work on," Lulu said, still refusing to lift her head.
Nicole asked, "What happened? Did you cry?"
Lulu's voice sounded strange, and she refused to make eye contact. Nicole instinctively felt that something was
wrong.
"I'm fine, really," Lulu insisted.
But Nicole was already standing before Lulu, which startled her. She looked up.
"Why are your eyes so red?"
It looked pretty swollen too. Now, Nicole was certain that something had happened, and she started to get worried.
"Nicole, you don't need to ask any further." Lulu lightly bit her lip and lowered her head again.
"Explain it clearly." Nicole rarely became serious, but how could she ignore the situation?
Lulu weakly said, "It's a personal matter, and I can handle it myself."
She did not want to bring personal matters into work, and she was currently feeling panicked and confused, which
was why she needed time to calm down.
"A personal matter?" Nicole quickly understood. She couldn't help but ask, "Is it related to Spencer?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe knew Lulu's personal matters, and there would not be anyone else except Spencer.
Under Nicole's persistent questioning, Lulu finally explained the situation.
"Pictures of Spencer hugging Icyln made it to the headlines!" She then wondered, 'How is that possible? Why would
Spencer hug Icyln?'
"I find it unbelievable too. Spencer went to my house yesterday and had dinner there. He said Icyln was in trouble,
and he went to help. After that, he came to my place and stayed for a while."
Lulu found it all incredibly unbelievable.
Spencer had come to see her yesterday and acted as if nothing had happened. But what was the truth behind him
and Icyln?
She did not want to believe it, but the photo was right there. If she were to believe it, she just could not imagine
Spencer doing such a thing.
So, she had been feeling conflicted and uncertain about what to do.
