Chapter 473
Nicole gave her a chilly glance, her voice impassive.
"Up to you to believe it or not."
When Chloe heard her seemingly provocative words, she was so pissed off that she immediately stood
up and pointed at Nicole.
"Don't be so full of yourself so soon! Even if the two of you have something on, it's impossible for
Mr.Johnston to be serious toward you.Just you wait for the day of you being dumped to come!"
Nicole could not be bothered to respond, but Mr.Riddle Sr.violently slammed his walking stick as he
yelled.
"Chloe, shut your mouth!"
It only then did Chloe reluctantly shut her mouth, but her gaze toward Nicole stil] had resentment in it.
After seeing Jared's unusual treatment of Nicole, Chloe's mental state was out of sorts.
Both Damien and Dexter looked at Nicole and did not expect her to really gain the favor of the
Johnston family.
By the looks of things, they are close enough that Jared would come to the Riddle family manor to
support Nicole.
‘How could we dare to displease her in the future?' Mr.Riddle Sr.pondered for a moment before finally
asking Nicole a rather strange question.
"Nicole, your Uncle Dillon seemed to have looked for Lyana to hold us back.How did it become Christo
in the end? Without the intervention of the Johnston family, we might not have walked out of that
place."
Nicole looked at Mr.Riddle Sr..Her eyes were calm as she answered.
"Christo Rogers wanted to get a special medicine from me.He probably got word of Lyana and Dillon's
plans, so he got Shawn to hijack the plan.On the one hand, he told Lyana that he would help her detain
you guys, but in reality, he wanted to use your safety as leverage against me."
‘So that's the reason"
Both Damien and Dexter wanted to say something, but thinking that Nicole had inexplicably cured
Mr.Riddle Sr.and had also allowed him to recover too easily, she might really have some special
medicine on her.
‘This Nicole has too many secrets on her"
Snow and Raine stood back to a corner, together with Karen, helped the whipped Dillon up.
After what Jared had said, their family had completely lost their place i n the Riddle family and could, at
the moment, only stand in the distance and not even sit.
Mr.Riddle Sr.looked at them as his voice was seething with an icy chill.
"Snow, get ready to go overseas once the exam is over!"
This was an exile in disguise.
Snow's expression immediately changed as she looked at Mr.Riddle Sr.and pleaded.
"Grandpa, I don't want to go overseas.Please allow m e to stay and tend to you!"
Mr.Riddle Sr"s expression did not change as he said, "I've already given you a chance, yet you dared
to lay your hands on your own family members.So, separation is probably for the best."
Snow could sense the faint loving intent in Mr.Riddle Sr"s words.
Thinking of Harvey, she gritted her teeth and said, "Grandpa, I still need to go to a banquet with
Harvey.You can't send me away just like that.I promise, there won't be the next time!"
Raine, too, chimed in, "Yes, Grandpa, Snow was just led astray.Mr.Johnston has already warned us, so
please give us one more chance!"
Mr.Riddle Sr.looked at Nicole.He was indeed hesitating, and Nicole could tell that he found it hard t o
find the words.
She gave Snow and Raine a casual glance and said nothing.
It only then did Mr.Riddle Sr.finally say, "This is your final chance, Snow.If there is a next time, I'll send
you away, no matter what."
Snow immediately nodded as she assisted Karen in helping Dillon up.
Raine followed behind the three of them as they returned to their floor.
When she got up to the second floor, Snow's expression immediately changed.
She pretended to be looking at Nicole, and when she saw the indignity her family had suffered, a
raging hatred roiled within her.
