Chapter 878 “She? No way. She doesn’t have the guts.” Joyce had always been a wishy-washy little girl in Martin’s eyes.
Since Martin did not believe it, Nicole had to show him the surveillance footage again. She took out her laptop and played the surveillance footage. “Come here and take a look.”
Martin got up and stood beside Nicole. This was his first time so close to her, his heart fluttering.
Nicole showed him the footage of Joyce going in and coming out and finally framed the moment when Joyce re -emerged from the lab.
Nicole paused the screen and zoomed in on Joyce’s backpack. “Does she usually carry a bag this big?”
Martin recalled and shook his head. “She usually carried a shoulder bag. I have never seen this bag before.”
“If I’m not mistaken, this backpack contains the results of the experiment, and finding Joyce will find the results of the experiment.” Nicole pointed to the backpack in the footage.
Martin’s heart sank. This was an outcome he had not expected. His fluttering heart had calmed down, followed by a moment of contemplation.

He slowly returned to his seat with Joyce’s face replayed in his mind.
“What are you going to do?” Nicole asked softly. She knew Joyce had always been Martin’s right-hand man and had followed him for a long time, so it was normal for him to be unable to accept this.
“Let me think about it.” He was now eager to get the results of the experiment back immediately. But would she admit it and return the result to him if he went looking for her directly?
“The relationship between you and her has complicated the matter. Take your time to think about it and contact me if you need anything. I’m leaving now.” Nicole tucked her laptop, got to her feet, and was ready to go.
“Thank you, Nicole,” Martin said with an expressionless face.
Martin continued to sit alone in the restaurant, losing himself in thought.
After Nicole left the restaurant, she went back to the Riddle Mansion. As she walked into the living room, Gloria and Daniel were already waiting for her on the
couch.

“Nicole, come sit down.” Gloria was the first to speak. “Mom, you’re back.” Nicole walked over and glanced at Daniel.
“I might be too harsh to you at school this afternoon. Please don’t be angry with me.” Gloria took Nicole’s hand.
Nicole looked like she had never taken that to heart at all. “Mom, if you don’t mention it, I don’t even remember it.”
“I told you, Nicole is forgiving. She won’t even take these little things to heart.” Daniel gave Nicole a look to ease the awkward atmosphere.
Gloria rolled her eyes at him. “I know you are the only one who knows your daughter’s best. Happy?”
