    After that, the two of them slept until the sun rose.


    Nicole was woken up by the sound of her phone. She fumbled around carelessly and ended up touching Jared.


    Furrowing her eyebrows, she was instantly awake. Then, she immediately withdrew her hand with her heart


    pounding.


    At this point, Jared was also partially awake. He looked up and found Nicole sitting there in a daze.


    ''What are you doing?" Jared''s voice suddenly sounded, which almost startled Nicole into falling off from the bed.


    Seeing this, Jared quickly grabbed her and pulled her into his arms before pinning her onto the bed.


    The two looked at each other with Nicole''s heart pounding even faster than before. "You...why are you awake?"


    Nicole murmured as she looked into Jared''s eyes.


    "Aren''t you the one who woke me up?" Jared helped smoothen her messy hair, and as the gentle teasing caused


    Nicole to bring her hands up to her chest, Jared took this opportunity to nt a light kiss on her face.


    He sat up with a smile and looked at her, "Are you going to get up anytime soon?"


    Nicole immediately sat up upon hearing Jared''s question. She then searched around for her phone and looked

    through it.


    Having gotten a missed call from us, she immediately called back.


    ''us, have the results returned?" Nicole asked.


    "Yes."


    "Ok, wait there. I''ll be there right away." Nicole hastily hung up, put on a change of clothes, and walked out.


    ''Where are you going?" Jared asked, seeing that she was in a hurry.


    "I''m going to the factory. The test results came out." Nicole said, and was about to leave when Jared stopped her.


    "Wait."


    "What''s up?"


    "Since the results are out, there''s no need to rush. I''ll head over with you after we have had our breakfast," Jared


    said calmly as he put his clothes on.


    "Aren''t you going to the office today?" Nicole looked at Jared in surprise.'' Isn''t hispany filled with things


    waiting for him to deal with?'' she thought.


    "I''ll send you there as I need to see the results too." Jared walked past her and went downstairs.


    Nicole followed him into the dining room where Jared then quickly made two servings of breakfast and ate before


    driving them to Martin''s factory.


    When they arrived at Martin''s office, both us and Martin were already there, looking at the test results. Noticing


    that Nicole and Jared were walking in, us hurriedly brought the results over to them.


    "Mr. Johnston, Ms. Riddle, have a look,'' he said.


    Nicole took the sheet and examined it carefully with Jared by her side doing the same. As they progressed from


    the second to thest line, her expression became progressively more indignant. Without knowing it, her brows


    had narrowed to the point that they looked to be knitted together.


    "Look." Nicole handed it to Jared.


    "It seems that this was the thing that had caused the fire," Jared said after reading the test sheet.


    "That''s right."


    "Martin, do you have this in your factory?" Nicole asked Martin.


    Martin pondered for a moment before he shook his head and said, "No."


    "Are you sure?"


    "I am sure. The raw materials in the factory were used to produce the Beacon''s medical equipment. This thing is a


    vtile chemical which we have no need for, and so, it''d make no sense for US to purchase it," Martin firmly


    denied.


    "Now things are beginning toe to light. Since it''s not from the factory, it must''ve been brought in by someone


    else." Nicole''s eyes narrowed.


    "You must investigate the workers in the factory. Inspect everyone other than yourself," Nicole confessed, looking


    into Martin''s eyes.
