Martin displayed a slight frown. For a moment, he could not understand Nicole's intentions.
The, once he noticed that her eyes were closed, he thought, ‘It's best not to bother her with any more questions. She must have her own reasons for doing so.’
"Well, get your rest, then. If there’s anything else you need, you can call me anytime,” Martin finished, and turned around to leave the room.
“Alright.”
Nicole then slept peacefully throughout the entire night.
Meanwhile, Jared had returned to his company, with Max already waiting for him in his office.
“Tell me everything,” Jared ordered as he walked in and took a seat on his chair.
"From what we've gathered in our investigations, the Adam family are now linked to the McCarthy family through marriage. They've been expanding their sphere of influence wherever possible, and have been urging the McCarthys to do the same. The McCarthys have remained silent on this matter, however, and this has left members of the Adam family unhappy with them.” Max looked at Jared and reported.
"But wait, weren't they desperately clinging to the Adam family before this? " Jared asked as he could not help but think about the situation.
"Without the support of the Adam family, is it possible that the McCarthys have arrived at an impasse," Max asked in confusion.
Jared turned to look at Max. 'What he said made sense. The McCarthys would not have been able to return if it wasn't for the Adam family. If that was not the case, they would not have dared step foot on the country to hold that ceremony for their forefathers. It is definitely possible that Joyce McCarthy was reluctant to help with the expansion of the Adam family business.
Either that, or she couldn't find it in herself to let go of her past grudges.’
"Max, go ahead and expose Joyce McCarthy to the press for aiding the Adam family. Make sure that the Adam family are aware of the kind of person whom Joyce McCarthy is." Jared looked at Max and ordered.
"Yes, sir." Max uttered, and he left to attend to his work immediately after.
‘So long as the Adam family do not ditch the McCarthys, it'll be fairly easy for us to clean up after them,’ Jared thought as he gazed out of the window with a sneer on his lips.
However, his train of thought was soon broken, as an assistant of his proceeded to barge in.
"Mr. Johnston, the Fisher Group is going to hold a meeting on the Green Energy Project this afternoon. Should I arrange to have you be present, or should I get someone attend on your behalf?" the assistant asked, looking at Jared with his brows furrowed.
“Arrange for Mr. Allen to attend on my behalf. I have other matters to attend to this afternoon,” Jared replied.
Jared recalled the so-called good deed that Fiorella had done for him, and because of that, he wanted nothing to do with her anymore, at least not for a while.
“Alright. Here are two documents that will require your signature." The assistant placed the documents in front of Jared, who picked them up and perused them, before signing them and handing them back
to the assistant.
"Place the less significant itineraries that I have on my schedule in the back burner, and have the important ones sent directly to my phone." Jared looked at the assistant and ordered.
"Yes, sir. Do you have any other instructions?" The assistant stared at Jared, waiting for his orders.
"Oh yeah, here's another thing. If Fiorella ever comes to see me, you must notify me in advance.”
"Yes, sir."
“Off you go." Jared looked at the time. ‘Looks like I still have some time left before I have to head out to pick Nicole up.’
He then flipped through the files next to him and began to work.
Abroad, Carl was still monitoring the situation at the Beacon factory closely. Even though they had gotten into skirmishes with
The Raven for the past week, most of his crew members were able to make speedy recoveries thanks to the supply of Beacons provided by Nicole.
“Continue guarding the entrances and exits. Report any oddities to me at once. Do you understand?” Carl looked at his subordinates and asked.
