Chapter 2116
"Grandpa," Nicole said softly. Then, she walked to the sofa with Jared.
"You're here." As expected, Mr. Riddle Sr.'s gloomy face instantly brightened up at the sight of Nicole.
Nicole seemed to have heard Steve's low laugh. She could not help but roll her eyes at Steve.
Then, Nicole sat down beside her grandfather and went straight to the point. "Grandpa, you don't have to worry about this matter. The police will give us the justice we deserve."
"Yes, I believe in all of you." Mr. Riddle Sr. had faith that Nicole would never do such a thing. After all, that trick was done clumsily. If it were Nicole, she would never let anyone catch her.
After Mr. Riddle Sr. had finished speaking, he glanced at Damien and Dillon unhappily.
The two sons' faces immediately turned sour, especially Dillon's. He gritted his teeth and said woefully, "Dad, you can't side with her indiscriminately. We're the real victims here."
"That's right, Dad. Both of our companies had suffered quite a huge loss as well," Damien added pitifully.
"That's because you lack the skills." Mr. Riddle Sr. did not seem to show any empathy towards them.
Some of those seated were happy, and some were distressed.
Finally, Karen could not hold it in anymore, so she spoke up while looking crossed. "Dad, if you say this, does that mean we could bully others as we please if we're skilled enough?"
"You're threatening me!" Mr. Riddle Sr.'s anger grew.
Karen flinched. However, she stubbornly said, "I wouldn't dare. We just want things to be fair."
"Fair?" Mr. Riddle Sr. snorted coldly. "Then, you should try according to your skills and ability."
Nicole had not even used her strengths. If they really were to lay their hands on Nicole, they would be at a loss.
"Samuel." Daniel frowned and stopped Samuel from speaking nonsense.
"I didn't say anything wrong," Samuel mumbled and closed his mouth bitterly.
Seeing that Samuel had stopped talking, Daniel turned to the other direction and suggested, "Dad, the issue has reached this point. I think it's best to let the police handle it. Well let go of it and stop discussing it." He was actually trying to comfort his father.
He knew that with the current situation, Mr. Riddle Sr. would
be the most upset. Therefore, he suggested everyone to not discuss it and wait for the result quietly.
"Daniel, what's wrong with you? The reason we came back is for dad to make a decision. And yet, you're stopping us from discussing the matter." Damien, who had just been insulted, released all his anger on Damien.
"Uncle Damien, are you saying that you don't trust the police's abilities? Or are you not willing to follow grandpa's instructions?" Nicole's face darkened a little. Her tone had also turned cold. 'How dare he yell at dad! That was too much.' 1
"Nicole's right. Since we've lodged a police report, we shall wait for the result. In that case, you don't have to bring this matter up to me anymore." Mr. Riddle Sr. had decided.
