“Well then, do you know that person’s name? The person whom the restaurant owner had introduced to you.” Nicole questioned.
“I don’t know, but I did hear them referring to her as Ms. Jo.” Hugh told Nicole.
“Ms. Jo…”
“So, the person who instructed you to attack me is this Ms. Jo?’ Nicole asked after giving it some thought.
Hugh nodded.
“Do you still remember the address of the restaurant?”
“Yes.”
“Tell me.” Nicole ordered, having decided to visit the place and meet the restaurant owner on her own.
Just as Nicole was about to leave after getting the address, Hugh called out and stopped her. “Could you not tell them that I’m the one who gave you this information?”
Nicole glanced at him, “Don’t worry. From now on, just take good care of your grandfather and stay away from things like these. Otherwise, I’ll be back to exact retribution on you.”
Hugh was frightened and took a few steps back. Then, Nicole left.
Now in the car, Nicole could not stop thinking about this matter. ‘The owner and the instigator must be on the same team. In that case, the owner must know her. If she can’t show her face, who would go to the ceremony on her behalf? That person must be someone she can trust too.’
Suddenly, a figure appeared in Nicole’s mind. With the idea in mind, she immediately made a U-turn and drove off to the way she came.
Once she had arrived at the restaurant, Nicole took a seat on a table and waited for the person to appear. At that moment, the television was displaying a live broadcast of the McCarthy family’s ceremony.
From the broadcast, she was able to see that the McCarthy family’s ceremony was exceedingly clamorous and grand. There was a long line of cars driving up the mountain.
Nicole stared at the television and wondered, ‘Joyce must be in there too…’
After a short while, a familiar figure approached Nicole and took a seat in front of her.
“You were in a hurry to meet me. What’s the matter?” Harvey looked at Nicole with a smile and asked.
He had immediately rushed over upon receiving Nicole’s call. ‘Nicole has been asking to see me multiple times now. Does she have feelings for me now? Whatever it is, I must seize this opportunity and express my feelings to her in more apparent ways.’
“Take a look at the menu. Everything’s on me.” Nicole passed the menu to him.
Harvey took the menu and glanced at Nicole. It seemed to him that she really wanted something from him. Therefore, Harvey did not hesitate and ordered his favorite dishes.
Then, he asked, “Could you tell me the purpose of our meeting now?”
“The McCarthy family’s ceremony is being broadcasted live on television. Do you see it?” Nicole reminded him.
Harvey squinted at the television and said, “What is there to see? I’ve seen grander ceremonies than this. They’re just acting like clowns on the street.”
Harvey did not even bother to watch it. To him, the McCarthy family was just putting on an act of tomfoolery that they themselves had staged. He was not interested in being an audience of the show.
“Let’s not talk about them. Tell me, why did you ask me to come here?” Harvey looked at Nicole impatiently.
“Why do I feel like you’re very interested in what I’m about to say?” Nicole observed the look in Harvey’s eyes and asked.
“Nah, how can that be? I’m just worried that you’re in a hurry.” Harvey said, quickly covering it up.
“Really?
“Fine. Actually, I asked you to come here today because I need you to help me find something out.” Nicole locked eyes with Harvey as she explained herself.
