Chapter 2934

“Alright, let’s eat,” Benjamin announced, standing up first. Everyone followed suit, heading to the dining room.

Once seated, a joyful dinner unfolded, with the whole family enjoying the meal together.

Amidst the laughter and lively chatter, what should have been a somber moment felt lighter, thanks to everyone’s presence. Benjamin’s mood was surprisingly upbeat.

After dinner, when the house quieted down, Alfred helped Benjamin upstairs.

“Sir, take it easy,” he cautioned.

“It’s okay,” Benjamin sighed contentedly. “How wonderful it is to see the children all grown up.”

“Sir, from now on, just enjoy your time with your family,” Alfred said with a smile.

“Yes, I don’t need to worry about anything anymore.

Everything has reached its inevitable conclusion,” Benjamin reflected.

Meanwhile, on the way home, Jared and Nicole leaned back in their seats, gently holding hands.

“You arranged all of this, didn’t you?” Nicole’s voice was soft but certain.

“It was just a guess, so I had Max take care of it,” Jared replied calmly.

“I knew it,” Nicole looked at him reproachfully. “Why didn’t you tell me earlier?”

Jared smiled, gently squeezing her hand. “I wasn’t completely sure before.”

He had suspected Scorpio would have no other choice but to act rashly, so he hadn’t informed Nicole to avoid involving her in any unexpected situations.

“So, what’s your plan now?” Nicole asked, not really pressing for an answer but curious about his thoughts.

“Scorpio might become desperate, which gives us an opportunity,” Jared said, his eyes darkening slightly.

Nicole’s eyes narrowed. “You mean, he might go directly to Water Crest?”

“If Damien had information related to Water Crest, Scorpio would assume we could get it too. So, he might take a gamble,” Jared analyzed calmly.

Nicole agreed, “He probably wants to strike first.”

If Scorpio suspected they could get clues to Water Crest, he wouldn’t sit still.

Likely, Scorpio was thinking of reaching out to Lawrence for a collaboration.

Meanwhile, in Lawrence’s mansion, a sudden visitor appeared.

Lawrence said flatly, “You’ve got some nerve showing up here.”

“What choice do I have?” Scorpio replied casually, settling himself on the couch as if he were in his own home.

Lawrence glanced at Scorpio and got straight to the point,” What do you want?”

“You already know what’s going on,” Scorpio said, cutting to the chase. “I couldn’t get the information Damien had, so I had to come to you.”

“And why would you think I’d help you?” Lawrence raised an eyebrow.

Scorpio smirked, “Because you can’t access it, but I can.”

“If she can’t open it, then no one in this world can,” Lawrence said confidently, his eyes fixed on Scorpio. He was certain only Nicole could unlock it, not just anyone.

“She’s smart, sure, but how can you be so sure she hasn’t figured something out? Maybe she’s keeping Water Crest for herself,” Scorpio said, clearly annoyed.

Trust in Nicole was one thing, but Scorpio knew Nicole was not easily deceived.

“Everyone wants it, but who has the capability? Even if I gave it to you, it would be just a useless piece of metal,” Lawrence stood firm, leaving no room for negotiation.

He had thought through every possible solution, but in the end, the only way was to use Nicole’s skills to unlock Water Crest.
