Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 1320 Collaboration

When Roxanna saw the distracted look on Colton's face, she knew that he was likely thinking about Nicole. Pity this couple. They are forced to live apart, unable to love each other.

"Just now, Ryan approached me and told me about Nicole being planted with the supreme voodoo bug. This was a joint effort between him and Evelyn. She did it because of me, and he did it to make me lower my guard and find vulnerabilities in my company."

The latter part of Colton's statement regarding Ryan's motives mainly was speculation, stemming from a time when he was at his lowest, and the company was under relentless attack. He reflected on how he persevered through those trying times, preventing Ryan's schemes from succeeding.

Though the memories sent shivers down his spine, he continued, "I suspect he will continue to attack my company, searching for vulnerabilities to weaken me. You're probably wondering why he still possesses such strength, even though the Yael Family is no longer in power, right?" As Colton spoke, he noticed doubt flicker across Roxanna's face, so he addressed the potential question she might have.

She was momentarily taken aback, then nodded. "Yes, I'm curious. One would expect Ryan to lay low following the fall of the Yael Family."

Seeing Roxanna's earnest, analytical expression, Colton felt relieved for Nicole.

"It's because he has someone behind him. There's a figure supporting the shady dealings the Yael Family was involved in. This person has been in cahoots with them and possesses formidable and unpredictable power. To this day, I still haven't figured out the person's identity, and that's what I want to discuss with you," he carefully explained to her, knowing that Nicole was already aware of all this. If Roxanna has any remaining doubts, Nicole will fill her in, but I'm unsure whether Roxanna will help me contact her.

Roxanna nodded at this point, signaling her comprehension and encouraging him to continue.

"After this, I will pretend to learn the truth and go abroad to find Nicole, but my sole purpose is to uncover the person behind Ryan. I'll have trusted individuals oversee my company. If anyone tries to pry for information, I hope you can help keep it confidential."

"Okay," Roxanna agreed, albeit reluctantly.

"Also, I can't deal with Evelyn right now because she still has a purpose, just like Ryan." Colton paused briefly before continuing, his words deliberate. "Could you help me contact Nicole? I want to hear her voice."
