Chapter 2970Chapter 2970
"Got it," Nicole said, her eyes lingering on the document.
It was indeed important, but it was something Ellar could handle. She wondered, ’Is there some issue
at BayCorp that Ellar hasn't mentioned to me?'
Recalling Ellar's absence at dinner the previous night, where he claimed to have social commitments,
Nicole speculated if he might be facing some problems.
After a moment, Nicole called Lulu over.
"Lulu, can you check on Ellar? See if he's run into any trouble. " Nicole briefed her on the document
and asked her to look into it.
’Alright, I'm on it," Lulu said, accepting the signed document and heading to BayCorp.
Nicole then dove back into her work. Time flew, and soon it was time to leave.
She checked the clock, tidied her desk, and left.
Lulu hadn't returned, which worried Nicole a bit. It seemed there might indeed be a problem. But
without any word from Lulu, Nicole guessed it wasn't too serious.
Deciding to pick up Nolan and Lana first, she thought of Jared. They had agreed to take turns
accompanying the kids, especially after recent events. Even if Nolan and Lana appeared okay, they
needed extra care.
Seeing Jared already waiting, Nicole quickly made her way to the car.
As the car headed toward the kindergarten, Jared noticed Nicole's preoccupied look."Tired?" he asked gently.
Shaking her head, Nicole replied, "Not really. It's just Ellar; he might be in trouble. I've asked Lulu to
check on him."
Jared understood and didn't probe further.
When they arrived at the kindergarten, came out beaming, rushing into Nicole's arms.
"Mommy."
The kids' homeroom teacher approached, reassuring her," Mrs. Johnston, the children are safe here.
The security Mr. Johnston arranged is all in place."
Nicole smiled. "Thank you, I appreciate it."
She knew the teacher must have been concerned about the recent incident but was still trying to
reassure them.
Once Nicole and the kids were in the car, Lana tugged at Jared's sleeve. "Daddy, can we have
hamburgers and ice cream?"
Jared glanced at Nolan, who eagerly nodded in agreement." Sure, let's go get some."
"Yay!” Lana cheered, and Nolan laughed along.
The family visited a burger restaurant, enjoying a simple meal together.
But Nicole occasionally scanned their surroundings as she sensed something amiss.
Jared, noticing her unease, whispered, "He's here."Nicole's frown deepened as she realized it wasn't just her imagination. She had caught glimpses of a
figure, indeed Lawrence.
Holding Nicole's hand, Jared reassured her, "Don't worry, he's unlikely to make a move."
Nicole raised an eyebrow, seeking confirmation.
Jared explained, "Lawrence is alone. If he had planned anything, he wouldn't be here by himself."
Jared had secretly arranged additional protection. If anything happened, Nicole and the kids would be
safe.
