Chapter 2767
"What?" Jared squinted when he saw the look of unease on her face.
"This game seems to have been deliberately made for Nolan to discover," Nicole realized.
It was not something Nolan accidentally stumbled upon, but rather something that was sent to him, giving him a
false sense of coincidence.
"Who is behind this, and why would they do that?" Jared's expression darkened.
Nicole then shared her analysis with Jared, and the more he thought about it, the more furious he became. If her
assumptions were correct, it was evident that this game was deliberately designed for a nefarious reason.
"I need you to log into Nolan's computer tomorrow to investigate," Jared ordered.
"Okay," Nicole nodded.

on.
Jared then patted her on the shoulder to comfort her. "Don't worry. Everything will be fine."
If there was an ulterior motive on the part of the developers, it would most likely be a long-term plan. After all,
clearing through a game was not something the kids would be able to do overnight.
Nicole reached out and wrapped her arms around Jared's waist before she leaned against him, finding solace and
regaining strength in his warmth.
Sensing what she was worried about, he embraced her as he gently patted her on the back in an attempt to soothe
her.
The sun was bright and warm the very next day. By the time breakfast was over, everyone had already left, leaving
nobody but Nicole at home.
After entering Nolan's room, Nicole turned his computer on and carefully examined the game.
Upon closer inspection, she realized that it was exactly what she had expected, so she went online to search for this
particular game, just to find that there was nothing remotely similar to it on the web. This proved that the game
Nolan had been playing was custom-made for him. In other words, it was unique, and Nolan was the only one who
owned it.
To further her investigation, Nicole copied the game, left home, and headed to the Riddle Corporation.
"Why are you coming in late? Is there something wrong?" Lulu asked when she saw Nicole.
"Nothing." Nicole answered without much elaboration.
She did not want to make a big deal out of it to avoid alarming others.
"Oh, we'll have to attend June's team-building event after work today. Let's leave together after work," Lulu
suggested. Nicole nodded in agreement. "Okay."

She needed to finish her work quickly today.
"Sure," Nicole answered with a smile.
As Lulu turned around to leave the office, Patricia approached Nicole and whispered, "Ms. Riddle? I'll accompany
you tonight."
"Good, Jared doesn't like attending such events anyway. Besides, he's the one picking Nolan and Lana up after work,
so he'll feel at ease with you by my side," Nicole agreed.
While talking, the two headed toward Nicole's office without noticing Ellar, who had just emerged from the elevator.
"Is there an event tonight?" Ellar murmured.
The instant he saw the secretary, he immediately stopped her and asked, " Nicole said she's leaving after work just
now. What's going on?"
"There's a team-building event. I heard it from Ms. Barrera just now. It seems to be organized by June's company,"
the secretary replied.
"Oh, I see," Ellar mumbled as he walked upto Nicole's office.
He then placed a few knocks on the door and opened it after someone had responded.
