Nicole stood still, too scared to move. Any movement would reveal its presence.

Someone looked down and said, "I'll keep watch here. You go check down there."

Nicole's heart skipped a beat. At that moment, she heard footsteps approaching from upstairs, and she felt cornered, with nowhere to run.

Even if she ran away, they could find her through the surveillance cameras in the hallway.

Just then, a cat's faint meow rang out: “Meow…”

A pure white cat emerged from the shadows, taking elegant steps and meowing from time to time: “Meow… Meow…”.

The person above saw a white cat and said, “It doesn't matter. It’s just a cat.”

The one who had come down stopped and then backed away, saying, "I knew it. No one would be here at this hour."

“Okay, let's go back inside. It’s very cold out here…”

The two people were talking, their voices getting lower as they walked away.

Nicole breathed a sigh of relief.

The little cat came back to Nicole and snuggled up against her leg.

This cat belonged to Jemma and was known for his gentle demeanor.

Nicole often brought him treats. She petted the cat, offered him a treat and said, “Thank you.”

The cat ate happily and Nicole watched him until he was finished before getting up and walking away.

Shortly afterwards, a figure stepped out of the shadows. It was Jemma. She bent down to pick up the cat, who was still licking his whiskers, and congratulated him: “Well done.”

It was obvious that Jemma had realized that Nicole was in trouble and had let the cat out to divert the attention of those two people.

attention of those two people. She stroked the cat's head and said playfully, "You're too friendly with others. I might get jealous. Don't you love me anymore? Why do you prefer her?"

The cat responded with a purr and a “Meow.”

Jemma chuckled and took the cat back inside.

Nicole returned home, but the more she thought about it, the more uneasy she became. She pulled out her phone and dialed a number. Then she asked the person on the line, “Joy, can you help me with something?”

The colleague Nicole contacted had previously served in the Diplomatic Corps as a foreign national with extensive contacts, making it easy for him to help find out how the Watts family was doing.

Confirmation of the Watts family's creation of a company abroad and the pregnancy of Miguel's eldest daughter-in-law were crucial for Nicole to verify the veracity of the claims she had overheard.

At first, Nicole considered Roscoe's amnesia to be a stroke of luck, assuming it would protect him from harm by the Watts family, who even treated his injured leg. However, recent events cast doubt on this belief.

If the accusations turned out to be true, the Watts family would be the epitome of malevolence. Roscoe's departure from the Watts family was imperative.

Nicole spent several anxious days without hearing from her colleague. Just when she was beginning to think that the claims she had heard were unfounded, her colleague contacted her.

“Nell, I've looked into it. The Watts family has indeed founded a new company, and a woman who identifies herself as the daughter-in-law is involved in its management. “She recently gave birth to twins.”
