"Right," Nicole confirmed, giving a brief rundown of the events.
Preston remarked, impressed, "I thought Everett was incredibly skilled to escape from such an encirclement. It's unbelievable." He had been shocked when he heard Everett was captured, hardly believing it was real. It turned out Everett's escape was facilitated by Lawrence's secret assistance.

She pondered, 'lt must be so, especially if even Lawrence has abandoned Everett. It's unlikely anyone else would assist him now.' "Great, finally, everything is settled," Preston looked around the group." Should we head back to Grandpa's place tomorrow?" "I think we should check in," Spencer suggested.
The others agreed, "Indeed, we should go back." Even though Benjamin had cto terms with Everett's actions, now that there was a resolution, everyone felt it was essential to inform Benjamin, or perhaps their return could also alleviate the weight on his heart.
Having agreed on their plan, everyone departed as it was getting late, and gradually the house quieted down. It wasn't until everyone else had settled for the night that Nicole and Jared retreated to their own room.
Observing Nicole's somber expression, Jared gently embraced her, suggesting, "Maybe this is for the best." Understanding the weight of Nicole's feelings upon learning about Lawrence's past actions, Jared empathized with her complex emotions. Yet, he considered it a positive revelation, as unmasking Lawrence's true nature meant they could finally move on without any reservaEJ "I thought I could overlook his past deeds, considering he once saved my life. But | never imagined he would harmto such an extent," Nicole said, her voice tinged with pain, her lips quivering slightly.
For five years, she was compelled to stay hidden on Crescent Island, avoiding any public exposure and concealing any trace of her true identity. She feared recognition would endanger her and her children, Nolan and Lana. She believed all her sacrifices were for her children's safety, not realizing these decisions prevented her family from being together.
The irony that the person she believed to be her most helpful benefactor, her savior, turned out to be the instigator of her sorrows, struck her as absurd.
Jared stroked her back soothingly, filled with compassion. If only he had found her sooner, perhaps all this pain could have been avoided.

"Sir, it looks bleak for Everett now," lan remarked with a sigh, indicating that his investigation suggested Everett's network had been entirely dismantled.
"Did you find out what happened?" Lawrence asked coldly.
"Yes, sir. The woman named Doretta is with Zane, and she's safely back with them. Moreover, Sambawe was rescued by Zane's people and has agreed to cooperate with them. Everett has lost everything this time," lan reported quietly.
"How did they manage to find Sambawe and rescue him?" Lawrence's eyes narrowed. He had considered this move but failed to uncover any leads or determine Sambawe's whereabouts.
"It seems Mr. Johnston was on the case initially, and later Zane took over when they found a lead. Zane handled everything from there," lan's voice faded, a hint of unease in his tone.
Lawrence glared at lan, "Did your investigation of Jared tip him off?" He suspected that Jared, not wanting to alert his quarry, might have passed the baton to Zane, causing Lawrence to miss his opportunity.
