Chapter 3160

"They've succeeded," Nicole responded.

Lulu was somewhat surprised. "If they've succeeded, why do you look so troubled?"

"We've got control over the people, but they can't help with the situation at the affected companies," Nicole explained.

"Oh, right, they can't really interfere with the operations of other companies, "Lulu nodded, then asked, "So, what do we do now?"

"It looks like we'll have to ask them for help," Nicole said, her eyes darkening slightly.

"Them?" Lulu didn't understand who Nicole was referring to.

Watching Nicole began to fiddle with her watch, Lulu realized and couldn't help but exclaim in shock, "Are you really going to use their power?"

That was a force only crest holders could wield. She wondered, 'Is Nicole really going to use it to help those companies?'

"There's no better option at this point, and helping them is helping ourselves," Nicole sighed.

"Will Everett move against the families behind the force then?" Lulu asked, a bit worried.

Nicole smiled a little. "I don't think he can do that yet."

While Nicole wanted those families to assist, she preferred them to keep their actions hidden. Since they chose to live in secrecy, she wouldn't disrupt their peaceful lives without a good reason. "It looks like we don't have any other options," Nicole said.

She bit her lip slightly, then pressed a button on her watch. Soon, a projection screen popped up. After she entered some content and sent it, the projection quickly retracted.

"Your watch is really amazing," Lulu said in amazement.

"Its original functions were already powerful, and I've made some upgrades and modifications," Nicole said, tucking the watch back into her sleeve.

Yeah, I've heard you can even control your robots through it," Lulu praised again. This was actually her first time witnessing how it worked, and it was truly magical.

Nicole smiled a little, changing the subject. "Your workload is going to increase soon. Do you think you can handle it?"

"I can," Lulu replied, understanding Nicole's meaning.

If those companies' problems were fixed, their joint projects with the Riddle Corporation would go on, and her work would increase. But these were projects she knew well, so she felt sure she could manage them.

"If you run into any problems, just let me know," Nicole said.

"Don't worry, I will," Lulu promised. She liked handling certain things by herself, and these tasks were definitely doable for her.

Seeing Lulu's determination, Nicole didn't say anything else.

In the evening, the moment Nicole found Jared already waiting for her outside the company building, she smiled.

As she got into the car, Nicole leaned on Jared's shoulder, looking very pleased.

Jared affectionately squeezed her hand, saying, "You seem really happy."
