Chapter 2138

Lulu complained in defiance, “He should still be sentenced for poor supervision. He’s the president of the company.”

“At most, he’d be fined.” Nicole shrugged. If Dillon was willing to go to jail, he would not have put the charge on someone else.

“Well, we let him off easy this time,” Lulu said depressingly. Though Dillon was obviously at fault, it was upsetting that he was able to avoid punishment.

Nicole remained indifferent. “It’s alright. The show has just begun.”

“What?” Lulu blinked her eyes in bewilderment. The case seemed to be closed, awaiting trial and judgment.

Seeing Lulu’s confusion, Nicole replied cryptically, “We should just sit back and watch the show unfold without getting involved.”

Lulu blinked her eyes and quickly reacted, “Oh, yeah, I almost forgot about this.”

Previously, Damien tried to trick Dillon and them. But since Dillon found out about it, how could he let this matter rest?

“It’s time to clock out. Let’s go.” Nicole got up calmly. “I have other things to do.”

‘Are you really going back to the Riddle family manor?” Lulu asked instinctively. She knew that Nicole had received a call from the manor. They wanted her to return after work, presumably for reasons related to this matter.

“Of course, I’m going back. They’ve put on such a good show, ” Nicole smirked. Things had come to an end. Mr. Riddle Sr. calling her back probably had something to do with Damien and Dillon’s matter.

Deep down, she knew this was the result she wanted for this situation. Even if Dillon was caught this time, he would not be locked up for long, and there must be a day when he came out. At that time, Dillon would not turn over a new leaf. Instead, he would turn more aggressive. If so, Nicole might as well save him, to get rid of everything once and for all.

Leaving the office, Nicole saw Sean and Steve downstairs in the lobby.

“Sean, Steve.”

The two looked at Nicole with concern. “Are you sure you don’t want us to follow you?”

“There’s no need for that. The reception tonight is also very important for us. You guys should just go attend it. I’ll head back to the manor on my own.” Nicole smirked as she answered.

“What if they…” Steve frowned. He was worried for Nicole and scared the people there would make things difficult for Nicole.

“This time, they won’t have the energy to deal with me.” Nicole’s gaze carried a hint of disdain. Dillon and Damien were not long from a quarrel.

Sean compromised. “Okay then. If something comes up, call us.”

“Will do.” Nicole watched Sean and Steve leave before getting into her own car. She informed Jared to pick up the kids as she decided to go back to the Riddle family residence on her own.

Soon, Nicole arrived at the Riddle family manor. Few people came. Only Damien, Dillon, Daniel, and Dexter were present. Seeing that she was the only junior present, Nicole awkwardly touched her nose.

‘Grandpa actually informed me to come back alone. Is this really a good idea?”

Seeing Nicole’s arrival, a smile rose on Mr. Riddle Sr.’s face.” Nicole is back.”

“Grandpa,” Nicole greeted softly as she slowly walked toward the old man.

“Sit down,” Mr. Riddle Sr. gestured for Nicole to sit beside him.

Nicole hesitated but sat down at Mr. Riddle Sr.’s insistence. She was not afraid of them. She just felt she should not be too flashy at the moment.
