Okay." Nicole looked at him and nodded.
‘If what you said is true, which local do you think would be having such an intense beef with you?" Harvey looked at Nicole in puzzlement as he could not figure it out.
"Could it be Miley? What about Snow or Raine?" Harvey listed their names as he looked at Nicole.
Nicole looked into his eyes. She stirred her drink with a spoon as she started pondering.
"Miley is still abroad. She can't even look after herself now, so it's very unlikely that she'd have the thought of doing that to me. Besides, I don't think she has the resources to pull that off.
"I've neither seen nor met with Raine and Snow after I came back here. I don't think they did this either..."
"Who could it be other than them?" Harvey frowned, confused.
‘Norah is the only one left now. I'm sure that, out of all them, she hates me the most. Is it because I told somebody else about her parents’ admission to the hospital, and she couldn't get over it? And was that why she came up with a plot to get back at me after I returned?’ Nicole analyzed.
"Nicole, you should get back to eating now. I'll get someone to look into this and find out who the person who assaulted you was." Harvey said, his eyes filled with determination as he looked at Nicole.
Nicole thought about it and figured that it would be impossible for her to come to a definitive conclusion in such a short time.
Besides, she still had work to do in the evening, and so, she kept her thoughts in the back burner and resumed eating. She would just deal with her assailant later.
Harvey looked at Nicole as she was about to finish her meal, and asked, ’ Nicole, have you heard about this? The McCarthy family is going to publicly pay their respect to their ancestors tomorrow. How ridiculous?! The ritual is commonplace, and they can just do it quietly on their own. However, they just felt the need to broadcast it to everyone. They're just so extra!"
"I know they were going to do that tomorrow, but what do you mean by publicly?" Nicole asked as she looked at Harvey, confused.
"I heard that the McCarthys have contacted the media. They're going to broadcast the entire ritual, so that the people of Amhurst
District will know that their family has returned in its full glory." Harvey chuckled as he told Nicole about it.
"The McCarthys are really something else. They're just a regular family, and yet they're doing something like this. How unbelievable.” Nicole shook her head, as she could not understand the intention of them doing so.
"Yeah. I guess everybody in this town is probably thinking the same thing as you are. Nobody knows what they're trying to prove. There's nothing glorious about doing that. If anything, they're just using their ancestors as an excuse to show off."
"Huh? The McCarthys..." Nicole mumbled as a thought suddenly struck her.’ Oh, yeah. How could I forget about the McCarthys? Joyce hired someone to follow me when I was abroad. I guess she already wanted to screw with me, but thankfully, I managed to get him off my back.
Joyce still has a score to settle with me, so she had probably sent another person to hurt me again...’
Nicole could finally see a clearer picture of what was happening the more she thought about it. Otherwise, it would have bugged her for the rest of the evening. She had already discovered two suspects so far, and she believed that the truth would come to light very soon.
After noticing that Nicole had space out and stopped talking, Harvey asked, Nicole, what are you thinking about?"
‘I suddenly thought about someone who might've done this.” Nicole's eyes sparkled as she stared at Harvey.
