“Leave it for now. As long as the Water Crest remains locked, Lawrence will do his damndest to ensure
that Everett stays locked up. After all, he could not afford to not be cautious about Everett.”
Even though they were partners, the mistrust between both parties was highly apparent. Because of
this, they had to keep their eyes on each other.
“So, we’ll just wait for them to come out on their own? If that’s the case…”
If that was the case, it could very well mean that they had been granted access to the system and
attained the Water Crest.
Naturally, Jared understood Charlie’s concern.
Then, he glanced over his shoulder. ‘Perhaps, I should let Nicole try.’ “I’ll take care of this. You just
have to make sure that someone is keeping an eye on them,” Jared said, and paused for a moment.
“Oh, I also need you to keep an eye on the person Lawrence has left behind in San Joto,” he
continued.
From the looks of it, Lawrence was still very much concerned about the events going on in San Joto.
He really had too much time on his hands.
“Understood,” Charlie replied.
With Charlie signing off, Jared switched his computer off and gazed off into the night sky outside of the
window.
Meanwhile, at Mecrounia, Lawrence was left feeling restless and jittery.
He and Everett had not made any progress with the Water Crest, and at this rate, he was starting to
run out of patience. Earlier, he had sent a message to Nicole, tipping her off on what Chloe and Everett
were doing. Yet, he was met with complete silence in return, and that made him very nervous.
As Lawrence was out of San Joto for a couple of weeks, most of the news he had gotten was old and
obsolete.
Therefore, he was worried that he might have missed out on any important updates that might have
unfolded.
“Should we think of something else?” Everett suddenly entered the room and barked.
Everett was also beginning to run out of patience because of how slow the progress was. In fact,
Everett regretted working together with Lawrence. There were already several instances in which he
wondered if the outcome would have been different if he had sought the help of someone else instead.
Understandably, Everett’s act of barging into Lawrence’s office had angered the latter, and when
compounded with that question thrown at him, he became furious. “You’re in no place to tell me what to
do.”
“It’s just a friendly reminder.” Everett froze and mellowed his tone.
“If you could do it yourself, why did you seek my help in the first place?”
Lawrence glared at Everett. “Whatever is happening in San Joto, you better tell them to stop, or I won’t
be pulling any punches!
If they hurt any of Lawrence’s loved ones, he would not hesitate to destroy them.
Everett gritted his teeth and matched Lawrence’s glare with one of his own. “You did a background
check on me?”
“Do you think I have to do that?!” Lawrence roared.
If Lawrence wanted to find an answer, he would be able to get it without lifting a finger.
Everett balled his knuckles into a fist as he suppressed the fury within him. But before he could act, his
rationality kicked in, reminding him that Lawrence was an unpredictable person.
Initially, Everett had thought of Lawrence simply as a powerful figure who could go toe-to-toe with
Jared. However, he seemed to have underestimated Lawrence; anyone who could match Jared was no
pushover.
At that point, Lawrence might have already known Everett’s true motive. He might have also known of
Everett’s plan in San Joto. As for all that had happened in the past, it was either that Lawrence had
been able to accept the reality of things with ease, or he had been sitting back, waiting to reap the fruits
of his labor.
However, Chloe had crossed the boundaries of that which was considered acceptable for Lawrence:
she had attempted to hurt Nolan and Lana this time around. Even if Lawrence was doing something
that would be to the detriment of Nicole, he would never allow anyone else to harm her. Perhaps, one
could say that Lawrence wished for Nicole’s downfall but would not allow Nicole and the kids to get
hurt.
“Do you think Nicole would ever forgive you for all that you’re doing?” Everett prodded, having regained
some confidence after understanding the situation.
This prompted Lawrence to shoot a dagger of a stare at Everett, an act which sent shivers down the
latter’s spine. The look in Lawrence’s eyes instantly made Everett realize that he should not have
challenged Lawrence at that moment.
It was nothing short of terrifying. With just one look, one could already tell how cruel Lawrence was and
what he was capable of.
