Chapter 138 The Wife Behaves Strangely Around Us

• mr. Riddle Sr. sighed and decided to give Nicole some more time when he thought of how hard Nicole had been trying to learn lately. He took a deep breath, his tiredness apparent. “Ask Nicole if she returns to the old house this weekend.” Damien nodded respectfully. As mr. Riddle Sr. wearily waved his hand, Damien left the room and gently closed the door. “What’s going on, Damien? What did Dad say to you?” Dillon asked. He was standing outside the door when Damien came out. His father used to talk to Damien alone, but it had never been this long. Dillon was incompetent and greedy, and Damien had always been looking down on him.” Nothing, but the Riddle Corporation seems in need of change.” Damien lamented and had to admit that he had misjudged. He, at first, thought Sean was the only capable child coming out of his father’s fourth wife, not expecting that Nicole, who had just returned, had also gotten a foothold in the family. When Dillon heard that, he was delighted, thinking that his father was finally going to get the company’s CEO replaced. Dillon looked at Damien from behind with contempt, but he did not dare to go in and disturb his father. So, he went back to his room and said to Karen, “Our daughter, Snow, has been doing well. Damien has just told me that there will be a change of CEO in Riddle Corporation. I guess Father will probably recommend me for the position.
• After all, if we got that piece of land, it would be because of Nicole’s relationship with Jared.” 1 “Have we gotten that land?” Karen was overjoyed. Dillon shook his head. “Not yet, but we will know in about a week. Ask Snow to work harder. I have got to get credit for this. After I become the company’s CEO, I will immediately buy you that sapphire necklace that you have been eyeing for a long time.” Karen was jumping for joy. She grabbed her mobile phone and called Snow, exhorting her not to slacken off but work harder on Jared. 1 Snow felt puzzled on the other end of the phone, wondering if Harvey had put in a good word for her family. But the last time she was in the principal’s office , Harvey clearly did not give a damn. Maybe Harvey felt sorry for her and had talked with mr. Ellison after he got the news. After all, mr. Ellison and mr. Wyance knew each other. After hanging up, Snow could not hold back her excitement. She wanted to see Harvey but was a little hesitant. At last, she gritted her teeth and called Yvana, using a pearl bracelet to buy Yvana’s favor to help sound out mr. Wyance. Yvana quickly replied that mr. Wyance was indeed more biased toward the Riddle Corporation.
• Snow could almost be certain that it was definitely Harvey who secretly helped them. After all, who else but he could have such a significant influence? Snow would never know that mr. Wyance was just angry with the McCarthy family because they caused the delay for him in seeing Nicole. She sat on her bed and started fantasizing that Harvey must have been too tired lately, and that was why he was cold to her. She figured she had to show him more concern. To show her thoughtfulness, she planned to cook something and bring it to Harvey for lunch tomorrow. Snow had not been so relaxed for a long time. She smiled and called Karen back to reassure her, saying confidently that mr. Wyance was fonder of the Riddle family. Karen was elated, turned around, and told Dillon, “It was really Harvey who helped us. I have also heard that mr. Wyance favors the Riddle family more. That piece of land will be ours.” Dillon was euphoric. “Is what you say true? Snow has really done it; she has won over Harvey to lielp us!” He knew it-Damien had been behaving so strangely because he was jealous. “Harvey isn’t an ordinary guy, but Mr. Ellison’s designated heir. If Snow can really win him over, we will find favor with Mr. Ellison.” Karen was excited.
