Chapter 141
Harvey paused as he looked at the leaving duo with a half-smile as he simply said, “Yes, she’s a junior in
school.”
Mr. Rogers Sr. continued to ask, “Ah, I forgot to task, Mr. Harvey, that young lady that came with you
earlier…”
When Harvey attended banquets like this, he would bring Snow with him from time to time, but now he
had no mood for banal exchanges, so he said softly, “Mr. Rogers Sr., that’s my own private matter.”
Guessing that Jared and Nicole were already long gone by this time and sensing the impatience
in Harvey, Mr. Rogers Sr. smiled. “You are right, Master Harvey.” At this moment, Mr. Wyance seemed to
have keenly noticed something. As he looked at the grinning Mr. Rogers Sr., he asked, “Mr. Rogers Sr.,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtdid you say the girl was named Riddle?”
Ever since Nicole arrived, Mr. Rogers Sr. felt that his chest was much relieved. He was no longer that
temperamental as he said slowly, “Yes. She’s a Riddle, a very beautiful young lady, and I could not
believe that she actually is…”
As he said that, Mr. Rogers Sr. seemed to realize something as he stopped talking. Yet, Mr. Wyance had
already managed to guess Nicole’s identity! ‘She is the one I was looking for!’ He said to himself. ‘She
was right here, right there before him, and he did not know!’ Realizing that he had missed the chance to
speak with Nicole, he lost all his appetite. He respectfully got up and wanted to see if he could catch up
to Nicole.
Mr. Rogers Sr. was startled for a second, and a deep thought appeared in his eyes.
‘Who was Nicole? She had only just stayed for a minute, and how did she take all these people away
with her?’ he wondered.
Mr. Rogers Sr. called out to Shawn. “Shawn, go and call your brothers here!”
Shawn acknowledged as he ran over to call Jallen and Christopher over. Jallen was entertaining guests
at that time and walked over with a confused look “Father, what’s the matter?”
Mr. Rogers Sr. was pissed off when he saw the latter’s foolish look. “What’s the matter? Hold this fort!”
Seeing the Rogerses in a mess, Damien and Miley originally wanted to chase after Nicole to question
her, but after struggling for a few seconds, the two of them decided to stay in the banquet.
After all, all the dignitaries of the imperial capital are gathered here. If they can get on with one or two,
they will already be worth the trip. As for Nicole, they will have plenty of time to question her once she
goes back to the Riddle family home
Nicole and Jared walked out of the manor, and Max had already driven the car out. Jared then looked at

Nicole recalled the last time he used such a tone to ask her to get into the car, and a strange look
appeared in her eyes, seemingly wondering where he was going to take her. Seeing her expression,
Jared could immediately tell what she was thinking as he sniggered,” I’ll take you back to school, don’t
worry.”
Nicole gave him a glance before getting into the car.
The car was very fast, and its bodyline was beautiful. Even Nicole, a motorcycle enthusiast, had to admit
that it was a good car.
Jared noticed that she was looking outside, leaving only half of her beautiful face for him to look at. He
then said plainly, “Don’t you think you owe me an explanation?”
Nicole turned to look at him and said seriously, “Someone asked me to go to Mr. Rogers Sr.’s banquet. I
didn’t know you’d be there.”
He looked at her bright eyes for a few seconds as if trying to gauge the credibility of her words.
