Lyana felt much better after she thought of that. Dillon saw that she had calmed down. Thus, he
cautiously leaned forward ad said, “My lady, don’t be mad. It’s not good for your body. It’s all Nicole’s
fault.”
‘Did he just mention Nicole?!’ Lyana wanted to rip his mouth out. ‘No matter how much he tries to flatter
me, he is still trash. And he has the cheek to talk to me like this?’
“How dare you say that?” she asked coldly. That angered Dillon. He was shocked at how quickly her
mood changed. However, he thought of how she will praise him in front of Mr. Rogers Sr. and hastily
said, “Please calm down, Miss Rogers. I’m trying my best to help you. Do you still mean what you said
earlier?” Lyana was thoroughly annoyed at him. Her eyes were full of ridicule and disdain.
“You want me to help you? You must first deserve it!” she said.
Following that, she strode out. Her footsteps slowed down as she walked past Jared’s car. She glanced
at the car with a hint of nostalgia in her eyes and continued her way out.
Jared’s words were harsh. She did not dare to make a scene further.
Claus was surprised when he saw Lyana walk away. He was sure that she would have caused some
trouble. He stood near the car and watched as her figure vanished. The Riddle family knew Jared, but
no one dared approach the black car.
Could it be that he and Nicole are actually getting married? Didn’t they say they’ll cancel the wedding
when Mr. Johnston Sr. gets better? After all, the Johnston family is not what it used to be, and the
Riddle family could no longer climb the social rankings. But Daniel and the Johnston family have not
mentioned anything about calling off the marriage. “Jared and Nicole are getting closer. Could it be…!
Damien and Dillon’s expressions changed when they thought about it. ‘If Nicole gets in with the
Johnston family, there is no chance for us to hold off the fourth household. Not even if Snow and
Harvey get together.’ They went back into the hall of the Riddle family home in embarrassment. They
felt dejected when they saw Nicole delivering water to Mr. Riddle Sr.
There was no need for him to lie in bed all the time anymore since his spirits were up.
The two sisters, Raine and Snow, were not far from Nicole. Their faces filled with glee when they
learned that Nicole had offended the great and well-known Lyana.
‘Even grandfather can’t save her now! She’ll be miserable!
Nicole noticed their gaze, but she did not care. She looked at Mr. Riddle Sr. as if nothing had
happened. She then turned to look at Daniel standing by his side. His face softened when he met her
eyes. “What’s the matter, Nicole?”.
Since they did not want to talk about it, Nicole did not push for more answers.
The way they did not join the others in seeing Lyana off explained everything.
