Chapter 2275

DING!

A notification came from the computer. Jared and Nicole instantly became serious.

“That’s early. I didn’t know she was such an impatient person.” Nicole gave a look of disdain. Initially, she thought that she would have to wait past midnight for Iris to make a move.

“She must have thought that no one had noticed her movements yet.” Something flashed in Jared’s eyes. This was the reason why he did not show any reaction to the matter during the day. He was also trying to make Iris lower her guard by doing so.

Nicole nodded slightly as he understood Jared’s intentions. However, Nicole wanted Johnston Group to return back to normal after this particular night.

Standing in front of the computer, they could see that someone had entered the system. Since there were no warnings that popped up, they were sure that it was Iris who entered the system using the password.

Nicole quickly went to work on the computer and searched for Iris’s location.

Max roughly heard some noise, so he knocked on the door and waited for the next order.

Ten minutes later, Nicole smiled. “I guess she really has got the guts. She’s in the storage room at our basement car park here.”

Iris actually dared to hide in Johnston Group? Maybe she was not a smart cookie after all.

“Max, go and catch her,” Jared ordered.

Then, Max quickly left the office and dashed straight to the basement carpark.

Nicole quickly controlled the system as well, in order to prevent Iris from causing more damage.

Then, she got up and said solemnly, “Let’s go and meet her as well.”

Soon, Nicole and Jared arrived at the basement carpark.

Max was leading a few guys who were dragging Iris out of the storage room.

Iris was struggling to escape. “Let go of me!”

“Stop shouting. We’ve already called the police. They’re on their way here,” Max said in a cold voice.

They finally caught her after so long. How could they let her go?

“You better let go of me right now!” Knowing what could happen to her, Iris could not stay calm. She continued wriggling. However, her weak body failed her. She was tightly caught in the hands of the men and there was no way she could escape.

After that, Iris was brought to face Nicole and Jared.

“S-sir.” Seeing Nicole and Jared, Iris’s legs were numb. She could barely stand up straight.

The furious stance she had a second ago instantly disappeared into thin air. Her whole body was shivering now.

“Why did you do that?” Jared’s voice was emotionless, and it made people shudder.

Iris’s face turned pale. Her voice trembled uncontrollably. ” Sir, l-l…”

After mumbling for a while, Iris could not utter a thing. The hatred she had bottled up could not be released from her mouth when she faced Jared.

“You did it because of me.” Nicole squinted at Iris, her voice was cold.

Seeing how mighty Nicole seemed as she stood beside Jared, Iris casted a jealous yet ashamed look at her.

‘It’s all because of this wench! If it weren’t for her, I would not be in this situation!’ Iris quietly cursed at Nicole.

“That’s right! It’s because of you! How dare you remain by Jared’s side?” Iris screamed through her gritted teeth.

Nicole smirked. “That’s our business. Does our relationship have anything to do with you?”
