Chapter 1957 Partially Right
“Are the higher-ups thinking of taking back the military project and handing it over to Eric Ferguson?”Floyd’s speculation was not without reason.Grant said, “They didn’t say it explicitly, but I don’t think they’ll do that. Eric’s advantages aren’t enough to counter the immense benefits brought by the South African base. I think the higher-ups might want us to have sole ownership of the project. Or at least, they want us to have control over it and not be passive. After all, this military project involves various countries’ sensitive aspects and can’t be ignored.”Hearing this, Nicole suddenly felt her limbs turning cold.Eric’s words during the day flooded into her mind again.She had a feeling that Clayton’s project might have really gone wrong.Nicole subconsciously pushed the door open and walked in.Grant and Floyd did not expect Nicole to come back at this time, so they were startled.Floyd responded first.“You came back so soon? Did you have a good time?”Nicole pa
Chapter 1958 Lost Contact
Floyd was serious, and Grant nodded.Although they did not have a good relationship with Eric, that was based on his past. Eric was undoubtedly an excellent opponent.If it were not for Eric’s unpleasant past with Nicole, he might have been Nicole’s husband.Nicole’s hatred for Eric had long since dissipated.After all, who lived with hatred in mind every day?Hatred stemmed from unwillingness, and Nicole had already let go of the past.Eric did not save her not because he did not want to, but because he had other considerations.This time, the people who needed his rescue were his sister and mother, so Nicole hoped that he would succeed.Seeing that Nicole nodded, Floyd smiled, looking wise and experienced. He beckoned to her.Nicole walked over.“Eric and Clayton are both good men, but one lives unscrupulously while the other lives cautiously. They’re both walking on thin ice because they’ve encountered a critical problem. But regardless of what’s on your mind, I don’t want
Chapter 1959 How Dare You Fight Back
Although Nicole knew where Clayton was staying in Liberty, it seemed a little too abrupt if she went there.Moreover, she was unclear about the current situation. What if there was a trap there?She was not too impulsive and knew to think about it.Thinking about it, Nicole took a taxi.“SF Corporation, please.”It would take too long to wait for Grant’s driver to come over now.Thus, Nicole went straight to the office. Perhaps then she could meet some acquaintances who were working overtime.The light was dim at night, so she could not see the taxi driver’s face. However, she was vigilant enough to take note of the license plate number.Nicole vaguely remembered the road to SF Corporation.Seeing that the car was indeed going in the right direction, she was secretly relieved.She was assured, so she looked down at her phone and sent Grant a message.Nicole asked Grant to give her two extra days. She would leave Liberty in at most three days.Grant was probably still angry
Chapter 1960 Get Him to Beg Me
Although the man was not good-looking, he had a powerful vibe when he spoke.He also spoke with a bit of contempt.The man did not look like an ordinary businessman.He had a bit of fierceness in his eyes that was deliberately hidden, so he should not be underestimated.Ingrid stared at him with wide eyes.“You dare to go against my wishes?! Tyler won’t let you get away with it!”The man’s eyes were gloomy.“Ms. Ferguson, I don’t know if Tyler will let me get away with it, but if you dare to lash out at me again, I certainly won’t let you off the hook!”Ingrid’s mouth widened. She was frightened for a moment.Someone outside hurried in.“Ingrid…”It was Quinn.Compared to the last time they met, Quinn looked much worse than Ingrid.Quinn looked thinner with sunken cheeks.The moment Quinn saw Nicole, her anxious expression became extremely complicated.Quinn pursed her lips and finally looked at Ingrid.“Let’s go out first. What’s wrong with your hand?”Ingrid pushed Q
Chapter 1961 He’s Not at a Loss
Would people like that really keep their promise?Was there any morality to speak of in this line of business?Nicole walked over and sat in an uncomfortable chair.“Something suddenly went wrong after so many years of cooperation. Although I don’t know what happened, perhaps this might be someone deliberately sowing discord.”Falcon was stunned. He smiled.“Who says it isn’t? But those who came into contact with the goods are Clayton’s people and my own people. Who would be the one messing things up?”“Then why are you so certain that Clayton did it?”Nicole asked back.Falcon narrowed his eyes, took a puff of his cigarette, and spit it out.He stared at Nicole.“Mediania wants to use Clayton’s test base, so they’re bound to clean up his business completely. Clayton has found a more reliable backer and wants to leave his old friends behind, so he has no choice but to create an opportunity for us to turn against each other, right? Otherwise, would he pay for the damages? Ms.
Chapter 1962 Sorry to Keep You Waiting
Ingrid’s hand was simply bandaged.It looked quite rough.Nicole narrowed her eyes.Quinn, who was on the side, pulled on Ingrid’s arm helplessly.“Ingrid, don’t be stupid. Tyler isn’t a good person. You’ll drag your brother down if you stay!”Ingrid pushed Quinn impatiently.“What do you know? My brother is cooperating with Tyler now, so he’ll surely take care of his brother-in-law since we’re a family! Outsiders can’t influence this cooperation. Don’t you know who Tyler is? So many people want to get connected with him. My brother’s business will definitely get better with Tyler as his partner. I’ve made such a big sacrifice for Eric, so he’ll understand me!”Ingrid raised her head and spoke arrogantly with a smug face.She was too conceited.Quinn stopped talking.Ingrid looked at Nicole and sneered.“You, on the other hand… You’re lucky that Caleb didn’t get to kill you last time, but it’s different this time since you’re in my hands now. The man who just went out is my
Chapter 1963 They Joined Forces Against You
Nicole finally breathed a sigh of relief.Falcon said, “Then how should we settle this account? Two of my brothers are dead. Mr. Sloan, don’t you have anything to say?”Clayton’s tone was cold.“The incident happened after your people took the goods, and there was no problem when you inspected the goods. Falcon, we both know what you really want by blaming their deaths on me.”Falcon was silent for a moment, then he laughed.“There are too many goods, so we can’t possibly test them one by one, right? My brothers are just so unlucky to come across those two defective goods. Anyhow, I have no choice but to put this on you.”The situation was tense, and they sounded like they could not reach a compromise.Nicole was so nervous that her palms were sweating.Clayton said, “Fine. If you must blame their deaths on me, then I’ll accept it. Tell me, what’s your condition?”Clayton’s tone was impatient because he did not want to joke about Nicole’s safety.Clayton did not want to talk
Chapter 1964 Let Them Go
Falcon thought that Clayton was hiding, so he ordered his people to look for Clayton.Now, Clayton showed up and had even investigated the matter.It turned out that the culprit was Tyler, who wanted to cooperate with him.Although Falcon liked money and power, he would not take his brothers’ death lightly.He would not sit idly by.Clayton did not care what Falcon wanted to do.If it was not for Nicole, Clayton would not even bother about this matter.However, since Nicole was involved, Clayton would not let that person get away with it no matter what.Nicole paused. She suddenly remembered something and turned around.“The two Ferguson women are innocent. Can you please let them go?”Although Ingrid was head over heels in love with Tyler, Quinn did not seem willing to stay here.If Ingrid and Quinn could leave, Eric might not be put in such a passive position.Nicole did not have any feelings for them. She just thought that they were two innocent lives, so she had no choi
