My Wife Act Differently Behind Me
Chapter 3087

Chapter 3087

"If Lawrence decides to break our agreement and see Nolan and Lana behind my back, I won't hesitate to cut off all contact with him," Nicole stated firmly.

"What is he even thinking? I can't wrap my head around it," Lulu fumed. " How can he hurt you and then act like nothing's wrong?"

Lulu found Lawrence's actions incomprehensible. 'Is he heartless, or is he just not thinking straight?'

"There's a lot you don't know," Nicole said, her eyes narrowing with meaning.

Lawrence wasn't just a company's CEO; he held significant influence in Mecrounia. When Nicole and Jared sought his help five years ago, his status was already high.

Now, his position in Mecrounia was even more prominent, not to mention his hidden, darker identity.

Nicole was aware of all this, as Lawrence hadn't kept it from her before she regained her memory.

As Lulu observed Nicole's thoughtful expression, her own demeanor grew more serious.

While Lulu didn't know all the details, she could tell from Nicole's tone that Lawrence was more complex than he seemed. She was aware of his influence abroad, but Nicole's attitude hinted that his power went beyond what she had imagined.

If Lawrence wasn't simply irrational, then his actions suggested a belief that he could manipulate everything, that everything should bend to his will.

A shiver ran down Lulu's spine as she voiced her concern, "So, his arrival in San Joto was planned with ulterior motives from the beginning."

"It began with the Fire Crest, and now...' Nicole trailed off, knowing that after the Water Crest incident, Lawrence would likely attempt to obtain both Crests. However, she sensed his motives might extend beyond that.

"That means you're still at risk," Lulu said anxiously, clenching her teeth." It's absolutely disgraceful."

"It's all about personal gain," Nicole replied calmly. "The world is filled with people chasing fame and profit; what matters is how far they're willing to go and the methods they'll employ." Lulu sighed, her expression clouded with worry.

Nicole offered a reassuring smile. "Don't worry, he may be formidable, but I'm not exactly a pushover."

"But you're not as ruthless as he is," Lulu replied, clearly upset.

"It's just a matter of different goals or conflicting interests; that's understandable," Nicole shrugged. She comprehended Lawrence's actions but wouldn't give him the chance to succeed. That would mean sacrificing her interests, which weren't just personal but also encompassed the entire Riddle Corporation and the Riddle family. Therefore, she wouldn't back down. "You should discuss this with Jared and devise a strategy. Even if we can't avoid him in business, we can't let him hurt Nolan and Lana again," Lulu said, determination shining in her eyes. If avoidance wasn't an option, she wouldn't back down, but Nolan and Lana must be kept safe.

"Alright, don't worry," Nicole replied, a determined glint in her eyes. This was her concern too.

After Lawrence left the Riddle Corporation and settled into his car, lan spoke softly, "Mr. Royce, did Nicole agree?"

"No," Lawrence replied, his tone heavy.

lan sighed, resigned. "I didn't expect Nicole to be so cold-hearted now."

"It's not her fault," Lawrence understood. Nolan and Lana were Nicole's top priority, and he had definitely crossed a line with her.

"So... what will you do? Are you really going to miss spending their birthdays?" lan inquired.

"Just drive," Lawrence's mood sank further, still lacking a solid plan.

Starting the car, lan pondered for a moment before suggesting, "Why don't we go to their school? We're bound to see Nolan and Lana there."
