Chapter 393 The Moment of Truth
But if my memory serves me right, F&R Enterprise is an established company with decades of history.
Nicole explained after noticing the surprised look on Whitney’s face. “Douglas is a capable man who proved his own
worth to get where he is in F&R Enterprise today.” Although Douglas couldn’t have succeeded without Emily’s help,
Nicole approved of the man’s talent and competence.
Whitney said nothing, thinking she shouldn’t continue the topic because she was afraid she would lose control over
her emotions once again. Thus, she wiped her tears and looked at Nicole. “Miss Nicole, are you going back to
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtGardner Corporation once you take care of the problem with Aimee International?”
Nicole nodded in response. “I still have work to do for the brand, Ann, and I don’t like to leave my business
unfinished. Besides, there are many other things I need to take care of here, so it’s a good excuse for me to stay
here longer. Otherwise, they’re going to get suspicious.”
With everything else settled, Nicole reckoned it was time for her to do what she must. After all, she still hadn’t found
the evidence about the death of her mentor, White, although she was sure Pierre was involved in it. While she was
determined to have her revenge, she was also not going to give up on investigating her mother’s death.
When Nicole’s mother passed away, Lydia was seen around the hospital, which made her wonder if it had anything
to do with Lydia. I’m going to get to the bottom of these two matters. I will find out the truth and seek justice, not
just for myself but for my mentor and mother as well.
On the other hand, Whitney was relieved after revealing her secret to Nicole, as if a heavy boulder that had been
pinning her chest had been removed. She then pulled herself together and said, “Thank you so much for the
comforting words, Miss Nicole. I guess I feel a lot better and know what I should do now.” Whitney looked down and
added, “I might have wronged Douglas in the past, but I’m happy that he is enjoying his life now.”
The next moment, Nicole responded with silence when she noticed Whitney’s upset expression. Not knowing what
she could say anyway, she gave Whitney a pat on the shoulder. “I’m glad to hear that. If you want to know more
about Douglas, feel free to ask me. For now, what you need the most is rest.” Upon hearing that, Whitney nodded
just as Nicole walked away without saying a single word more.
It was only until Nicole was gone that Whitney snapped herself out of her trance. Upon staring at her laptop for a
few moments, she eventually summoned the courage to type Douglas’ name in the search box. While news about
Douglas’ past could barely be found on the internet, most of the articles were news about him as the shareholder

of Aimee International and the president of F&R Enterprise. Over the years, Whitney had been held back by her
fear of learning more about Douglas. Whenever she stumbled upon any news report about him, she would do

Soon, Whitney went on to search for more news about Douglas, eventually learning more about his stories in recent
years. Even so, she failed to discover any news about the man when he seemingly went missing for almost a year.
When Douglas was wandering in the street amidst the rain three years ago, he caught a high fever and could
barely hold on any longer until he met Emily, who sent him to hospital.
While that incident gave both of them an opportunity to meet each other, they subsequently got married and
started a family with a child, whereupon Douglas became the president of F&R Enterprise later that year.
When Whitney read the news and discovered that Douglas was indeed a married man, her hope was crushed by
the harsh truth, as if the universe had collapsed around her. Seeing the family of three in the picture, she could see
Douglas carrying a little girl in his arms while Emily was seen wrapping her arms around the man’s waist.
At the same time, Douglas’ eyes were fixed on the child lovingly. They look like a happy family. Whitney continued to
stare at her monitor screen in an absent-minded manner until she brought her wandering mind back to reality
moments later.
