Chapter 1361 A Clue

Nicole frowned after reading the contents on her phone. The person was clearly siding with the Hofstead Family,

and they made the Gardners seem like they were just a greedy and merciless family. If my calculations are right,

Colton's father, Benjamin, should've been the CEO back then. Nicole had interacted with Benjamin in the past, and

he hadn't seemed like a heartless man to her. She was good at reading others, and she was certain that her

impression of him was correct.

There were a few comments that sided with the Gardner Family, but those were clearly outnumbered. Nicole's

instincts told her to tap on the profile of the person who spoke up for the Gardners the most. 'The Hofsteads were

clearly too aggressive. They kept provoking the Gardners, and they were trying to ruin the Gardners. If it weren't

for Benjamin's skills, the Gardners would've been utterly destroyed by the Hofsteads.'

Nicole was fully focused as she continued to read the comment. 'The Gardners might not be saints, but I bet they

didn't have a choice but to fight back. They only pushed back a little each time, and they didn't try to ruin the

Hofsteads in one go. Ultimately, the Hofsteads were simply too greedy. They ignored their own mess and focused

on destroying the Gardners instead. As a result, they faced some issues in their internal divisions, and a few of their

core people were sent to jail. The Hofsteads went bankrupt after that.'

Nicole felt a heavy sensation in her chest after reading the comment. She didn't know how to determine the truth

after reading the comments. However, she was certain that Benjamin wasn't an evil man. If the Hofsteads had

been the ones to trigger him, he would have shown some mercy in his counterattack. Colton, on the other hand,

wouldn't have had the same mindset if he had been the one in charge. Colton was much more unforgiving, and he

wouldn't have let the Hofsteads go so easily. His approach made him a legendary figure in the industry, and no one

had the guts to mess with him, as they didn't want to cause trouble for themselves.

Well, if this comment is true, then it looks like Old Mr. Gardner was too kind back then. Since Nicole had a clue, she

figured that she could expand her research from there. After a long while, she finally fell asleep in bed. For some

reason, she had a really nice, deep sleep. The next morning, Nicole was awakened by the sound of Chloe knocking

on her door. Nicole crawled out of bed half-asleep—she was still tired, as she had slept a little too late the night

before.

Nicole had a hand pressed against her back and another hand around her tummy as she got to the door. In recent

years, she could tell that her body wasn't as active and lively as before. "What is it, Nicole? Did you not sleep well

last night?" Chloe asked with a frown. She could tell from the look on Nicole's face that the woman hadn't gotten a

good sleep. "Why don't you take a day off today? You should get a holiday. Your stomach is starting to show, and I

don't think you can continue doing this," Chloe suggested.

Even though Nicole's pregnancy differed from the regular person's, it was still necessary for her to be cautious with

her health. She would suffer if she went on the way she did. "I can't take a day off today. We're in the most crucial

period now, so we can't get lazy at a time like this," Nicole uttered while shaking her head. She insisted on

proceeding with work, and she had a determined look on her face.

When Chloe saw the look of determination on Nicole's face, she simply let out an exasperated sigh. "Fine. But

you're not allowed to work the morning and night shifts at the base—you're only allowed to continue with your

inspection." This was the most that Chloe could offer, and she made her boundaries clear. Even though this was

their business, Chloe knew that one's health had to take precedence.

Nicole knew that she would have to go along with Chloe's words when she saw the look on Chloe's face. She knew

that Chloe was only doing this for her, and she knew that Chloe didn't want her to do anything that would be

harmful to herself. "Fine. I'll sleep for a while more, then. You should head off first," Nicole replied with a nod. She

beamed at the other woman when she saw the earnest look on the woman's face.

Chloe left after she was finally satisfied with Nicole's response. "You should take good care of yourself. I'll wait for

you at the base," she uttered in a rather worried tone before leaving. Nicole nodded and agreed once more before

sending Chloe off. After Chloe left, Nicole felt the drowsiness seeping into her again. She made her way to her bed

before sinking in and falling into a deep sleep.
