Chapter 1223

Nicole thought it would be a ruin with nobody around. However, as soon as she got out of the car, she

saw Claus.

Claus immediately chuckled when he saw Nicole as he walked toward her. "Why are you here, Miss

Riddle?"

Jared had given him an arduous task early in the morning itself, making him think that he was going to

be utterly bored for the entire day, which was why he did not expect Nicole to come over.

"Did Jared send you here?" Nicole guessed.

Claus laughed. "M-hm. You're right, Mr. Johnston sent US here to claim everything that can be salvaged

before clearing the area for reconstruction.

Tve got to give him credit where credit is due. Jared really is efficient,’ Nicole thought.

"Alright, carry on," she said. "HI go and have a look."

Claus quickly stopped her. "Miss Riddle! This place is already in ruins, what’s there to see?! It's not safe to walk

here. Please don't get yourself hurt."

Nicole shook her head. "It's fine. I'm just going to look around."

Then, she asked Claus about the location where the fire had started, after which she went to the area where the

generator was and examined it.

As expected, she could not find the problem.

Claus looked at her and asked curiously, "Miss Riddle, is there a problem here?"

Nicole thought about it and said, "Bring me some tools. I want to crank it open and have a look inside."

Claus nodded and got someone to bring a toolbox over.

Nicole reached out for the toolbox and took one of the tools out as she stood in front of the charred generator and

pried the shell open. As expected, the wires were already in a mess, but Nicole was still looking for clues.

Claus was confused, but he knew that Nicole would never do something if she did not have a good reason to, so he

just waited for her at the side.

After some time spent inspecting the device, Nicole finally spotted an area that had melted in a manner different

from the rest of the generator. Nicole's eyes narrowed.

Claus watched as she picked a wire up and examined it, so, in his state of curiosity, he asked, "Miss

Riddle, is something wrong?"

Nicole's eyes darkened as she quickly a section of the wire off and passed it to Claus. "Put it in a bag

and find out how this wire was melted. Then, follow the clues and continue investigating."

Claus immediately nodded and took the wire. "Got it."

He gotten word from Max that this fire was uncanny, so Nicole might have actually found a clue. With

this in mind, Claus did not linger, and quickly brought it for inspection.

Nicole watched him from the back with a wicked smile. "I'll find you, no matter who you are!"

After two hours, Nicole returned home to her parents, and as she exited her car, she saw that Sean and

Steve were both getting off their vehicles too.

They were flabbergasted when they saw her. "Nicole?! You're back?!"
