Roland frowned. “Jacques, why wouldn’t Mrs. Sloan understand the contract? She’s the president of Stanton Corporation, not a housewife who doesn’t know anything. Usually, lawyers need to read the documents word by word. Why are you so anxious when it’s only been a few minutes?”Jacques’s expression changed slightly as if he could not understand what Roland was saying.“What? Who is she?”He asked again in disbelief.Roland saw that Nicole had no reaction or opinion, so he repeated her identity again.Jacques instantly became serious and looked at Nicole solemnly. He no longer had a frivolous look in his eyes anymore.“Ms. Stanton?”He murmured, “The hospitals under the Stanton Corporation are very popular in our country, so we would like to cooperate with your hospitals. If our products can…”Nicole raised her hand to interrupt him and put the document on the table.She said with an indifferent smile, “Let’s talk about the cooperation with Stanton Corporation later. This is a
The corners of Roland’s mouth twitched, and he thought it was a little funny.“Jacques didn’t expect that you wouldn’t be fooled by him. He wasted all the feelings that he brewed in him. Madam, why does he want to cooperate with United International Hospital so much?”Nicole smiled and glanced out the window.“All medical equipment that United International Hospital uses is the most advanced in the world. Cooperating with United International Hospital is a kind of proof and honor that their brand is high quality. Although their brand is good, they can’t compare to other international brands. It takes strength to stand out.”Judging from Jacques’s expression, Nicole guessed that they had been looking for opportunities but never got a chance.“So that’s how it is. Luckily you came this time. Otherwise, it would be really difficult.”Roland rubbed his head and heaved a sigh of relief.Nicole’s victory in the first battle gave him a lot of confidence.Nicole was silent for a moment
Eric looked at Nicole seriously.Nicole understood what he meant and said, “Please, come in.”The butler came over with coffee and handed it to Eric.Eric was rarely in a good temper and thanked him.Nicole sat on the sofa and held a cup of tea with no other expression on her face.“Mr. Ferguson, what did you mean by what you just said?”Eric looked at her solemnly.“As far as I know, the company’s science and technology exhibition is a trap.”“What trap?”“Incorporating emotions in artificial intelligence is at a critical point where one wrong move could violate ethics. It’s not like simple cloning in the past. This time, it’s DNA duplication in humans. Using technology to create and transform new life still isn’t allowed in Mediania.”Eric’s tone was more solemn.“It’s not as simple as you imagine it to be. This isn’t a simple exhibition. George Quay, the world’s tech giant, is suffering from cancer. Why do you think he’s so interested in this reception?”Nicole frowned a
Nicole looked down and smiled at Chatty and Fischer.“Then can you two take care of each other here?”Chatty was still a little upset. She pouted and acted pampered.“But I want Mommy to stay with me. I’ll get scared when I see the monster…”The corners of Nicole’s mouth twitched. She looked at Chatty and said helplessly, “Let’s not watch this if you’re afraid.”“It’s okay, I’ll overcome my fear! Mommy, you can go to the back. I’m a brave baby!”Chatty clenched her fists tightly.The woman next to her could not help but praise Chatty with a smile.“Is this your daughter? How is she so cute? She looks smaller than my kid, but she can express herself so clearly. She’s really smart…”Nicole was also pleased with the compliment since everyone liked to hear praises of their children.Chatty smiled and looked at the woman.“Thanks, Miss! Your baby is also very cute!”The woman was amused by Chatty. She then looked at her own daughter, who looked like she was about to cry at any t
It was getting more and more crowded. Thus, Nicole took the two kids and left.When she got outside, she called Logan and Roland and told them to wait at the door.As a result, the woman who exchanged seats with her just now came over with her child in her arms.“Thank you very much! If it weren’t for you, my child might’ve made a fuss. Not everyone can tolerate a loud kid here.”Nicole smiled and nodded politely.“It’s okay. You’re welcome. Next time when you buy seats, you must buy consecutive numbers. Otherwise, you may not be so lucky again.”That woman sighed and shook her head helplessly.“I wanted to, but when I bought the tickets, I saw that only the three seats in the middle were sold together and reserved. The rest of the seats could only be bought one by one. After I bought one seat, the other seats were taken…”Nicole’s face changed slightly, and she subconsciously looked at her.“You can only buy the tickets one by one? But when I bought it, I bought three seats a
This amusement park was not too big nor too small.Nicole never saw the hunched back of that lonely person again.The two children had a great time playing and were obedient.Thus, Nicole rewarded them with a balloon each.When they went out, they walked hand in hand on the street.The sun was shining gently on their shoulders. She felt the soft breeze and smelled the fresh air.Chatty talked while Fischer enthusiastically echoed whatever she said.Nicole could not help but smile.The man in the front saw this scene and stood there without moving.Chatty saw him first. She also saw the little boy beside the man.“Oh, that weird uncle and his son…”Fischer’s fair and tender face was instantly filled with displeasure.Chance ran over happily and looked up at them.“Hello, Auntie, Chatty, and Fischer! This is a gift for you.”Chatty tilted her head and smiled at him. Without any hesitation, she politely accepted the gift from him.It was a pretty rainbow cotton candy.“Tha
For a while, Eric did not know what to say to get out of this awkward situation.Obviously, Eric was the one who wanted to eat with Nicole and the kids in the first place.In the end, Nicole and the kids only invited Chance, that little brat!Chance looked at Chatty, who took the initiative to invite him, and felt the gloom in his heart disappear.He nodded happily.Then, he cautiously looked at Eric and mustered up the courage to say, “Daddy, I’ll follow Chatty then. Goodbye!”After that, Chance held hands with Chatty and went to chase Nicole and Fischer.Fischer was displeased to see Chance.His dislike for Chance was so obvious.Nicole did not arrange a proper dinner at first. There was a very distinctive street nearby that was very similar to Chinatown, so she planned to go there for a stroll.Chance was so happy that he could not hide his smile, and Nicole felt a little sorry for him when she saw this.Nicole did not have an opinion on Chance.Although Chance’s mother
This hiding figure was captured by another man.Eric squinted his eyes and saw the man that was hiding in the shadows not far away.The man bent his body and looked sneaky, but his eyes were staring in Nicole’s direction.Obviously, this man had bad intentions.Eric immediately became alert.He could not let Nicole be in harm’s way.Eric took out his phone and asked his bodyguards to rush over.Then, he strode over to Nicole.Nicole squinted lazily and looked at the beautiful scenery when someone suddenly appeared in her sight.She frowned and looked annoyed.Why was this man haunting her? Did he really not understand what she meant when she rejected him?“You…”Nicole was about to curse at him, but Eric pulled her up and walked toward the center of the street.Eric carried Chatty, who was playing happily, and looked at the other two boys. He said in a serious tone, “Stop playing. We have to go back now because there’s danger here."Nicole was startled and looked around w
