Chapter 534 Hard to Chase
Nicole curled her lips, and she inadvertently retracted her hand. “It doesn’t hurt anymore.”She looked at Clayton, whose face was tinged with slight anger, and the conflict in her heart disappeared.Lil Michael reminded Nicole that Clayton was an exceptional man, so there must be countless people who would surround him. Nicole did not know anything about him except for his deceased ex-wife.How could she think of him as a blank sheet of paper?Nicole returned to her senses in time, never dragging her feet.Clayton slowly and methodically put down the first aid kit. He could not discipline his son with Nicole around, so he had to maintain a decent smile.However, there was no trace of warmth in his smile.He withdrew his gaze, looked at Nicole, and explained patiently, “That’s impossible. My family doctor in Liberty was a very lazy person, so I had no choice but to learn first-aid knowledge by myself.”Nicole smiled faintly, her attitude was polite and slightly detached.“It’s
Chapter 535 Save It
Soon, the staff noticed this scene and wordlessly raised the temperature of the air conditioner. The temperature in the room rose to the right temperature.On the big screen.An AI car and a real car were competing on the road, using the same chip and system from the accident.The AI car on the screen showed superior skills in different kinds of roads, whether it was on mountains, flat land, or bumpy waterways.When approaching a traffic light, it would slow down. It also slowed down when there was rain.When there were obstacles in front of it, it would bypass it flexibly.When people were crossing the road, it would wait patiently.When encountering an unexpected situation, the automatic alarm would activate.It was gentle, calm, but very dynamic, giving the AI driverless car all the advantages that humans had. Even in an extreme situation where human intervention caused sudden deceleration of the car, it overcame the inertia and stopped the car with maximum agility, complete
Chapter 536 There’s Nothing Wrong With a Meal
Nicole pursed her lips and raised her eyes just in time to meet Eric’s gaze. They coincidentally smiled.Eric’s voice was cold. “Since the system data and the chip records are both normal, there’s only one thing that can be abnormal.”Everyone looked at him silently and nervously.Eric said, “The test car.”For a long time, everyone was silent and did not make a sound. They were shocked, but they had no choice but to accept Eric’s words.“What could be wrong with the car?”Eric pursed his lips. “The car was specially customized, but the components that work hand-in-hand with the AI system were custom-made by a different company. Has anyone checked this?”No one made any sound.However, there was no doubt that a breakthrough had been found in this accident.“Meeting adjourned.”Eric spoke and immediately ended the video conference.Nicole’s eyes fell on the man’s face. She did not say anything, but she had the same thought.She did not expect Eric to have the same idea as he
Chapter 537 Petty
The office was silent for a moment.Eric raised his head and met Gerard's confused gaze.“I’ve had people investigate that company already. They’re backed by bigwigs in Liberty’s political party, and their shareholders are business leaders from various countries. Don’t try to confront them, and don’t involve Nicole in this either. I’ll see what I can do.”At those words, Gerard glanced at him with a dark gaze.A few seconds later, he could not help but ask, “This company has strong momentum and complex capital sources. There’s no reason for you to look down on them.”He had known Eric for a long time, but Eric’s ability and background could not be easily summarized. His investments which the media reported about were just the tip of the iceberg.In the beginning, Eric was interested in J&L Corporation only because the core R&D team in Gerard’s hands was tenacious and innovative enough. At the early stage of investment, he was just watching the growth potential of J&L.What he di
Chapter 538 Make Her Drink
“Ms. Stanton is investigating the cause of the accident. She’s also following up on Stanton Corporation’s internal business dealings, but since it involves the secrets of Stanton Corporation, I didn’t send anyone to investigate in depth.”Eric let out a faint “mm” with an expressionless face.Mitchell thought about it before quickly saying, “Ms. Nicole will be dining with a few partners at Green Club tonight…”Green Club was a luxury private nightclub under Ferguson Corporation. It was generally not open to the public, and its membership was strictly selected.Thus, Michell was able to obtain first-hand information.......In the evening, Nicole arrived at Green Club as promised.This place was very private and was preferred by many businessmen and celebrities.However, the price point starting at seven figures a night was not something that the average person could afford to spend.A few of the business partners were all prominent people in their circles. Since they had the i
Chapter 539 Help Me Drink
Nicole’s expression darkened as she turned to leave. This room smelled terrible!However, behind her, Ivy very untactfully pounced on her again.“Don’t go, Ms. Stanton. Don’t go! As you can see, I’m about to be kicked out of the Harrison family because Stanton Corporation stole the contract from Harrison Corporation. My family won’t let me off if I don’t get this contract back.”Nicole sidestepped her and said with a cold voice, “Let go.”Ivy looked up at her drunkenly. Even if she was drunk and bolder than before, she still could not help but let go when she saw Nicole’s cold and sullen gaze.“I told you before. Everyone is responsible for their actions. Unless there are greater interests involved, Stanton Corporation won’t give up their interests just because I pity someone.”Nicole’s thought process was clear. She also knew that there was nothing to say to Ivy.Ivy was trying to find a way to get Mr. Zahn to break the contract, right?If they really broke the contract, then
Chapter 540 Kick Her
Nicole was just about to throw this woman out when the door was suddenly flung open from the outside. Ivy was pushed to the floor with a cry of surprise.The next second, a tall and slender figure stood at the door. His cold face looked even colder in the dim light, and his gaze was deep and dark. When his stern eyes glanced over and saw Nicole standing there safely, his frown softened for a moment before furrowing again.That was because he saw Ivy lying on the ground with the stench of alcohol around her, tugging on Nicole’s skirt. Behind her, Mr. Zahn was rolling on the ground in pain.Eric’s arrival completely sobered Ivy up.Ivy had not moved out of the Ferguson Villa because Old Master Ferguson still had hope for her, and they were just waiting for the opportunity. She was the one who could not stand the pressure from Eli and Joy Harrison, so she asked Mr. Zahn out to think of a way to get the contract back. That way, the Harrison family would continue to help her put press
Chapter 541 He Has Ulterior Intentions
When Eric went out, Nicole was on the phone at the entrance of her room, her expression ugly.He did not rush forward but waited like a gentleman six feet away to wait for her to finish her call.The distance was not far, so he could hear her clearly.Nicole said, “Yes, from now on, short Harrison Corporation’s shares and pull in their business partners. It doesn’t matter even if it means losing money.”Eric looked at her, a faint fire burned in his heart. If Nicole was so angry, that meant Ivy and Mr. Zahn did not just ask her to drink.Forcing them to drink was letting them off easy.After hanging up the phone, Nicole saw Eric out of the corner of her eye.He stepped forward. “Are you very angry?”“I guess.”Eric reached out and tried to touch the messy hair on her head, but she dodged it with a tilt of her head.He smiled. “Don’t worry. I won’t let others bully you.”“Don’t flatter yourself, Mr. Ferguson.”Nicole glanced at him faintly and walked into her room with her h
