Chapter 2413
On the surface, Lawrence appeared supportive and willing to accompany Nicole for her examination. However, now
that Nicole reflected on it, she realized that each time she had gone for her check-ups and treatments, Lawrence's
anxiety seemed to be greater than hers. At the time, she had thought that Lawrence was just being concerned for
her, but now she could not help but feel differently.
Especially this time when Lawrence had proactively suggested finding a doctor for her, which made her even more
suspicious.
"What's wrong?" Lawrence asked softly when he noticed Nicole hesitating.
"Nothing," Nicole replied, masking her thoughts with a faint smile. "Though I don't have high hopes, it's worth
trying."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLawrence reassured her, "Even though there hasn't been any progress for all these years, you're now back in San
Joto. You're in a familiar environment, so things might turn out differently."
Nicole nodded with a slight smile, saying, "Thanks, Lawrence."
There was a brief, strange moment as Lawrence's expression stiffened slightly. Although Nicole was thanking him,
he felt an inexplicable sense of oddness.
"Coffee is here." At this moment, Lulu entered the room,

breaking the unusual atmosphere.
"Thank you," said Lawrence.
Lulu smiled. "You're welcome, Mr. Lawrence."
After saying that, Lulu did not leave and remained standing to the side, seemingly unaware that her presence was
disrupting the atmosphere.
Lawrence's gaze darkened slightly. He continued chatting with Nicole for a bit before leaving.
Once he was gone, Lulu asked in a hushed voice, "Nicole, why was he here?"
"Nothing much. He just mentioned that there's an international expert in town who might be able to help with my
condition," Nicole explained.
Lulu seemed somewhat skeptical as she furrowed her brows. "Is the doctor he found reliable?"
"Why?" Nicole could not help but laugh. 'Why is Lulu so resistant towards Lawrence?'
"It's been so many years. If there really was a doctor who could treat you, you would've been better ages ago, isn't
it?" Lulu was confused.
"He means well, and there's no harm in giving it a try," Nicole replied calmly.
"Do you need me to accompany you?" Lulu asked.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNicole tilted her head slightly, looking puzzled. "What's going on with you? You seem to have some sort of
resistance towards Lawrence."
Lulu had indeed been acting a bit strangely today, and her attitude towards Lawrence had not gone unnoticed.
"Just a little bit," Lulu admitted. "I overheard a conversation between Mr. Sean and Mr. Steve the other day, and..."
"What did they say?" Nicole's intuition told her that it must be related to Lawrence.
"They mentioned they had been investigating Lawrence for a long time, but they still hadn't found anything wrong
with him. It made them suspicious, wondering if Lawrence was being cautious," Lulu explained.
Nicole squinted slightly, and her voice unconsciously grew lower. "What do you mean?"
Lulu shook her head. "I only overheard that part, and then I left. I couldn't just stand there and eavesdrop, right?
But since they suspect Lawrence, I can't help but think that it must be his problem."
Nicole smiled as she realized that Lulu was fiercely protective.
"Nicole, even though he saved you, please be cautious," Lulu advised. She had not heard the specifics of the
conversation, but she believed that Nicole should keep her distance from Lawrence.
"Alright, I understand. You can go about your business now," Nicole agreed, dismissing Lulu.
