Now that Nicole had been rescued back and left the hospital to approach Roscoe, it was Likely she would get hurt by Miguel again.

Cunning as ever, Miguel knew Doreen hated Nicole and might provoke Doreen into harming Nicole. This way, he could keep his own hands clean and leave him free from revenge. What an excellent plan!

Even though this was just Jarrod's guess, it wasn't out of the realm of possibility. In fact, the chances were quite high.

Jarrod's gaze grew intense as he urged in a low tone, “Hurry up!"

Nicole had indeed taken the morning train back to Ardlens because of Roscoe's wedding. She had departed the hospital early but only arrived in Ardlens at one o'clock in the afternoon.

Roscoe's wedding was set for the evening. She assumed she was not too late.

Security at the Watts family mansion was strict, with the villa heavily guarded, blocking Nicole's entry.

The servants nearby observed Nicole with suspicion, murmuring among themselves as if contemplating reporting her presence, seemingly having anticipated her arrival.

Nicole quickly moved away, avoiding areas where she might be easily spotted.

Given the Watts family's vigilance, they Likely knew or suspected something significant. This confirmed Nicole's suspicions. Just as she had overheard and investigated, the Watts family attempted to scapegoat Roscoe while they actually backed another heir from abroad.

Nicole felt compelled to warn Roscoe about this. Given his sharp mind, he would surely see through the situation after listening to her words.

Nicole slipped to the back to bribe a servant and then disguised herself in the servant's uniform to blend in. This way, it was difficult to recognize her.

Moreover, she had recently cut her hair, causing those who previously knew her to hesitate. She suspected they were using an old photo of her with long hair for identification.

Dressed as a servant, Nicole easily slipped into the wedding venue.

Roscoe's wedding was decorated with luxury. The entire venue was decked out in red carpets, with roses and carnations flown in by air.

Numerous guests arrived, all dressed in extravagant attire. The Watts family seemed determined to impress the Ardlens nobles this time.

Their intentions? To make a fortune amid their illegal activities while shifting all the blame on Roscoe before running away.

Nicole no longer trusted anyone in the Watts family as all of them seemed to be involved in the scheme. Miguel wasn't just malicious. He had a threatening glare that sent shivers down people's spines.

After searching unsuccessfully for Roscoe, Nicole socialized and talked with other servants while arranging fruits. Soon, she learned the groom was in the backstage lounge, practicing his speech with the host.

Nicole instantly made her way toward the Lounge.
