“Welcome back.” Harvey politely extended his right hand with a smile. “I couldn’t attend your welcome banquet last time because I wasn’t in San Joto.”
Nicole glanced coldly at Harvey and said, “You don’t have to explain yourself. Even if you were here, I wouldn’t have sent you an invitation.”
“You’re still the same after all these years.” Harvey withdrew his hand, somewhat disgruntled.
“I’ve always treated people I dislike this way,” Nicole replied as she glanced at Snow.
Harvey knew that she was insulting him. Since he had broken up with Snow, it meant that he did not like her. But now, they were back together again, and she despised his actions.
However, everything he did was for Nicole. He wanted to prove himself to her, so she would eventually see the actual powerful man that was worthy of her to entrust her life to.
For five years, he thought she had vanished and would never see her again, so his feelings for her died along with that thought.
That was until he heard that she had returned and was holding a grand welcome banquet to formally celebrate her return to the Riddle Corporation. He hurriedly finished his overseas project and rushed back as quickly as possible.
But even though he was back, he did not have a reasonable excuse to see her. At the end of the day, he decided to prove himself to her so she would see him eventually.
Nicole frowned as she could sense Harvey’s intense gaze on her, feeling extremely repulsed by his stare.
“Harvey, let’s go to our seats,” Snow said softly.
“You go ahead.” Harvey had no intention of leaving after seeing Nicole. He just wanted to look at her closely. After all, she had disappeared for five years, and he had even thought she was no longer alive.
Now, seeing her in person, Harvey felt like he had come back to life.
Snow’s face turned pale instantly, and she could not help but resent Nicole even more. ‘Why did it have to be Nicole? Harvey and I were doing fine, but everything changed once she appeared. Why?!’
Taking note of their expressions, Nicole’s eyes narrowed in displeasure. She really disliked feeling like she was prey.
With a cold gaze, Nicole said, “Do as you please, but please don’t block the way.”
After speaking, Nicole walked around Harvey and headed toward her and Jared’s seats.
Harvey suddenly raised his voice. “Grandpa misses you too!”
Nicole continued walking without stopping. Why would his grandfather miss me? Why would he even come and tell me
that? What’s wrong with him?’
Harvey squinted slightly when he saw Nicole unmoved.’ Even if she did not want to acknowledge me, why was she suddenly so cold to Grandpa? Something’s not right.’
“Mr. Ellison, it’s better not to disturb other people’s lives,” Lawrence reminded, not liking how Harvey looked at Nicole.
“Same to you,” Harvey replied calmly as if he knew Lawrence very well.
Though he did not fully understand Lawrence’s background, he was well aware of what Lawrence did after arriving in San Joto. As soon as Harvey returned, he thoroughly investigated Nicole’s situation before deciding to target NandoCorp.
Lawrence glanced at Harvey with a heavy gaze, and Harvey met his eyes without flinching before turning away.
“Harvey.” Snow quickly followed after him, even though she was feeling very unhappy inside. She knew she had to stick closely to Harvey at this moment to make their relationship clear.
Lawrence’s face darkened slightly as he watched Harvey walk away. He was well aware of Harvey’s intentions toward Nicole. But if he had feelings for Nicole, why was he with Snow now?
“Mr. Lawrence.” Ian came over and stood beside Lawrence.
Lawrence said coldly, “I want all the information about Harvey and Nicole from the past.”
