Is it because grandpa misses US since we haven't been visiting him for a long time?" Nicole asked the butler with a slight frown.
‘That's probably one of the reasons why," Alfred replied.
"Got it, thank you,” Nicole said, after which she drove off.
When she had returned to the lab, everyone was already busy with their own things. Nicole joined them and started working for two hours straight until her stomach began to ache.
‘Carry on, I'm heading out for a bit." Nicole walked out.
‘What's wrong, Miss Riddle?" Kelly noticed that there was something wrong with Nicole, so she ran after her.
“Nothing, I'm probably just too hungry,” Nicole explained.
"Didn't you have lunch?” Kelly asked as she helped Nicole to the lounge
"No, something came up, so I didn't have time to eat,” Nicole said.
‘Take a break. I'll buy something for you,” Kelly said, after which she went off to buy something for Nicole.
Nicole plonked herself on a chair and rested when a cup of coffee appeared in front of her.
She looked up and asked, ‘ Harvey? Why are you here?"
‘I was bored, so I came here to chill out for a bit. I saw you sitting here, so I just came over." Harvey looked at her.
‘Your coffee."
"Just leave it there."
"You don't look too good," Harvey said.
Nicole nodded and replied. "I didn't eat anything for lunch, so I'm having a stomach ache now.”
"You didn't eat? You're taking your work way too seriously! How could you not eat?” Harvey looked at Nicole with an expression of bafflement.
"No."
"No? Wait here, I'll be back.” Harvey left without bothering to listen to a word of her explanation.
Nicole wanted to stop him, but he was already too far away by then.
After some time, Kelly returned with some food in her hands. "Eat some, Miss Riddle."
"Thank you." Nicole grabbed a spoon and took a few mouthfuls of soup.
At that moment, Harvey returned with some food as well. When he saw that Nicole was already eating, he looked at Kelly and figured that Kelly had bought something for Nicole to eat.
So, he just placed the food he had bought in front of Nicole and took a seat next to her.
"I was calling out to you, but you walked away before you could hear me," Nicole explained.
"It's okay. Just eat up." Harvey looked at her unapologetically.
"Kelly, you can go back to work now. I'll keep her company," Harvey said to Kelly.
Kelly looked at Nicole and left after saying goodbye.
“Eat slowly. The soup isn't bad at all," Harvey said.
Nicole nodded in agreement.
"Nicole, doing this once or twice is fine, but you really can't starve yourself all the time, do you understand?" Harvey asked in concern.
"Don't worry, I didn't eat lunch today because something urgent came up. I'm not dumb,” Nicole said, starting to feel better and more energized after eating.
