“Thank you,” Nicole expressed her gratitude.

“Let’s dig in,” Maximillian said with affection.

During dinner, Maximillian turned his attention to Jared, concern etching his features. “I heard you’ve been quite busy recently. I was thinking of sending someone to help you out.” “We don’t need it for now,” Jared responded calmly, his voice steady and reassuring. “We can still manage.”

Maximillian’s expression shifted to a slight frown. Despite not venturing out much, he remained well-informed about the happenings beyond his immediate surroundings. The situation, as he understood it, was somewhat complicated, and his concern for them was palpable.

“We already have someone helping US. Don’t worry,” Nicole reassured Maximillian with a gentle smile.

Seeing both of them insisting, Maximillian could only agree, “Alright then.”

Then, looking at Jared, Maximillian hesitated before mentioning Everett, seemingly cautious because of Nicole.

“He has already shown his ambitions. We’ll be on our guard against him,” Nicole said, her expression turning slightly serious.

She understood the reason behind Maximillian’s hesitation, but these concerns were not something new to her.
