Jared could not tell Martin that Nicole was angry with him but watching Martin anxious made him even more anxious.
“Maybe you can contact her,” Jared said while looking at Martin.
“Me?” Martin looked at Jared in surprise, not understanding what he meant.
“Hurry up and try to call her,” Jared ordered a dazed Martin.
“Okay.” Martin quickly took out his phone and dialed Nicole’s number. Both Jared and Martin listened intently to the call tone, and after a long while, the call was answered.
“Martin, what are you calling me for?” Nicole’s voice came from the phone. At that moment, the hearts of Jared and Martin felt lighter when they heard her voice.
“Nicole, are you okay?” Martin asked with concern in his voice.
“I’m doing quite well. Did something happen at the factory?” Nicole asked. She felt a little weird hearing Martin’s tone.
The factory is fine. I haven’t called you in such a long time, so I was just catching up,” Martin said quickly to cover it up.
“It hasn’t been that long, has it? Wasn’t I in the country just a few days ago?”
Jared typed on the phone and showed it to Martin. ’Yeah. Where are you now?” Martin asked according to Jared’s words.
“Where else can I be? I’m working overtime at the R&D center.” Nicole was upset and had not gotten any sleep due to the chip’s trouble.
“Is everything normal at the R&D center recently?” Martin continued to ask according to Jared’s questions.
“Everything’s fine. What’s wrong with you today? Why are you asking strange questions?” Nicole sensed that something was wrong with Martin and asked.
“I’m fine. It’s because of what happened in the factory recently, so I’m a little bit worried about you.” Martin finished speaking and looked at Jared.
“Don’t worry about me. You better think of a way to rebuild the factory as soon as possible.’
“Is Jared helping out at the factory?” Nicole asked when she was suddenly reminded what she had entrusted Jared to do before she left.
“Yeah. Mr. Johnston has been coming to the factory quite frequently recently. He also helped US find the person who started the fire.’ Martin praised Jared in front of Nicole.
“I see he still has some conscience.” Nicole unconsciously complained. Martin did not expect Nicole to say such words and looked at Jared suspiciously, where Jared dodged eye contact for a moment.
“Does the person have any accomplices?” Nicole asked Martin.
“Not in the factory. I’ve already fired him and sent people to watch over him.” Martin reported the progress to Nicole.
“Well, you did the right thing. It is impossible for a worker who has nothing against you to set fire and risk being imprisoned. There must be someone instructing him to do so.” Nicole’s analysis became
more certain.
“Mr. Johnston and I thought of the same thing too.”
“Is there any news about the McCarthy family?” Nicole asked.
“I haven’t heard of anything as of the moment,” Martin replied.
“Why has it gotten so silent with no news…,” Nicole thought to herself.
“Do you want to tell her about someone following her?” Martin asked Jared in a small voice.
“Tell her so that she’s aware and alert about it.”
