“Grandpa , are you getting that right?” Nicole could not believe her ears and asked again.
“It can‘t be wrong. I have this kind of diamond, which is several times better in purity than this one.”
Mr. Riddle Sr.‘s serious expression told her that this diamond was not the one Chloe was talking about.
Nicole looked at the diamond in the box and wondered how this could be.
“Nicole, I didn‘t expect you to do such a thing, stealing Grandpa‘s diamond. You are so daring.” Snow
glared at Nicole and rebuked her.
“Nicole, was it because you saw that the Dresden Green Diamond was so beautiful that you swapped
the diamond with a fake one?” Raine looked at Nicole viciously, seriously suspecting that Nicole had
taken the diamond.
“Exactly. How could Chloe let you deliver something so valuable with just a box? That looks like child‘s
play.” Snow also suspected that Nicole had tampered with it.
Seeing that Raine and Snow were fanning the flames, Nicole shot them a displeased look and turned
to Mr. Riddle Sr.
“Grandpa , I did nothing. I watched Chloe take this box out of her handbag, and I never opened it
midway, much less knew that it didn‘t contain the Dresden Green Diamond.” Nicole looked at Mr.
Riddle Sr. with a grave face.
“It is okay. It is just a diamond. No need to make a fuss about it.” Mr. Riddle Sr. stopped Snow and
Raine.
“Nicole, I believe in you.” He looked at her with an avuncular face.
Nicole was warm–hearted, knowing that her grandfather trusted her so much.
“Grandpa, I will find out what‘s going on and give you an explanation.” With that, Nicole left. Mr. Riddle
Sr. looked on, twirling his beard with a thoughtful face as Nicole went.
“Grandpa , why do you trust Nicole that much? What if she really took it and doesn‘t admit it?” Raine
grumbled angrily.
“She wouldn‘t; I know Nicole.”
“Don‘t mention this to anyone.” Mr. Riddle Sr. instructed them.
“Got it, Grandpa.” Snow and Raine grimaced helplessly. Deep down inside them, they were thinking of
making good use of this opportunity to smash down Nicole.
On the way back, Nicole recalled every word and action
Chloe had said and done, and there was no question that the box had been switched before it was
passed to her.
But Chloe would not admit it if she were to question her right now. After all, she left in a hurry after
taking the box and did not open it to check. Now things had gone wrong, and there was a possibility
that Henry would be implicated
Her car pulled up steadily in front of Jared‘s villa. Nicole got out of the car and walked in, her mind still
thinking about the diamond. Seeing the computer on the table, she remembered she had an
appointment with Zeke earlier.
She immediately turned on the computer, and several messages from Carl popped up on the screen.
Nicole immediately opened them. It was all messages from Carl waiting for her confirmation. She
smacked her thigh for almost screwing things up big time.
Carl had found someone who acted like White, and because he could not be sure, he kept his hands
off.
Nicole zoomed in on the pictures and videos Carl sent over, repeatedly examined them, and then
replied to Carl.
(What is the situation at your end now?]
She soon received a reply from Carl. (This person switches his place of stay every few days and is very
suspicious.]
[Find a chance to test him. If this person is White, get rid of him immediately.)
(Okay.) After communicating with Carl, Nicole quickly contacted Zeke. “Have you made any progress in
your research in the last few days?” 1
“I‘m ready to assist you in cracking it.” Zeke was still confident in himself.
“Okay, we will do it in sync now.” Nicole started attacking the target‘s intranet.
