Perhaps Eric was shocked by Nicole’s bluntness.Eric’s self-esteem was hit, and it took a while for him to calm down.‘Nicole actually mocked me for being old?!’ Eric thought.His fingertips trembled slightly as he typed and deleted the message on the dialog box repeatedly.His heart felt so uneasy.It was another day of being hurt!After a long time, Eric called Toto, who went home on vacation, to come back.Outside, the night was silent, dark, and lonely.In the middle of the night, Eric was still working overtime. It was really tough on him.When Toto pushed the door open, he saw this scene.Eric held a cigarette between his fingers. His posture was relaxed, and the harsh vibes faded slightly. Eric looked like he was in a fairyland in the haze of cigarette smoke.Toto was so frightened that he hurriedly opened the window to let some fresh air in.If Toto came just a little later, the smoke alarm would have gone off.Tomorrow’s headline would then be: “Ferguson Corporati
The next day.Nicole went to the office. The afternoon client appointment that originally belonged to Grant was replaced by Nicole.They agreed to meet at the golf club.Before Nicole could leave, she received a call from Clayton Sloan.Clayton was very gentle and modest. He knew when to advance and retreat.After that scare last time, Clayton dared not appear in front of Nicole so as to give her time to forget.“Nicole, do you want to go shopping together this afternoon?”Nicole frowned. “Mr. Sloan, is this your new hobby?”Clayton laughed. His voice was clear and pleasant.“Michael learned that you were frightened and insisted that I ought to pacify you. Even if I have to buy the entire mall, I have to make you happy enough to forgive him…”Nicole could not help but laugh. A child’s world was truly crude and simple.Lil Michael still did not know how hard it was to make money.“I forgave him a long time ago. I’m the one who doesn’t know how to appreciate it and failed to
Andrew Zeno knew that Nicole could not immediately agree, so he laughed and said, “Yes, it’s indeed a problem, but if we follow the original price, we’ll lose too much money. President Nicole, I have an idea. Your factory has been in charge of assembling the medical devices now. In fact, you can completely hand it over to us. We can manufacture and assemble it for you, then hand over the finished product. Doesn’t that save a lot of work?”It turned out that this was Andrew’s true purpose.He was quite ambitious.Assembly was a technical problem that involved the medical devices’ smart chip.Now, assembly was handled by Stanton Corporation’s high-precision factories, and each employee signed a confidentiality agreement.Once they handed it over to an outsourcing company, it would be equivalent to giving up their core technology.If so, what advantage would they have in the market?Nicole lowered her eyes. There was a bright, specious smile on her face when she raised her eyes and
“Why should I believe you?” Nicole asked.Nicole sat there and looked elegant, generous, and unmoved.If there was danger, Yuliana should find the police. Why did Yuliana find a woman like Nicole instead?Yuliana was trembling with anxiety.She found a photo on her phone. It was a photo of Yuliana and a baby. Yuliana looked like she was only in her early twenties at the time.“She’s really my daughter. She’s only six years old. Andrew Zeno has a habit of abusing children. He’ll kill her if he takes her away!”Even if Nicole was slow to react, she could hear that something was wrong.“The child is yours and Andrew Zeno’s?”Yuliana paused for a moment and nodded. She said through clenched teeth, “When I first started in showbiz, he supported me. After he got tired of me, we separated. I hid the child from him because he really abused children. He often went to some orphanages to send gifts, but he’s only going to abuse the children!”She showed Nicole a few photos of Andrew smil
In the next second, a strong force tugged on Nicole’s arm and yanked Nicole to the side.Instantly, there was a sound of a vase shattering, and the pieces landed right where Nicole was standing earlier.Nicole then crashed into a clean, warm, and sturdy embrace.It felt somewhat familiar.“Mr. Sloan?”Nicole was surprised at why Clayton would appear here?In the next second, Clayton dragged her behind him. His gaze swept harshly over the woman who chased after Nicole.The woman wanted to chase after Nicole again, but when she saw Clayton, who was behind Nicole, her body froze in place.She also recognized Nicole at that time.The woman’s face turned pale.She did not dare to make another rash move.Andrew Zeno, who heard the commotion, rushed over and was visibly startled.“What’s going on here?”The woman went over with a displeased face.“That b*tch snatched the child away…”Andrew was shocked. “Two people can’t even watch a child? You guys…”He was aware that there w
Nicole was silent and thought about it for a moment.“My company’s lawyer hasn’t arrived yet and will be delayed on the road. Let’s make an appointment some other time.”Since the matter came to this point, signing the contract was not so important anymore.With that, Nicole simply turned around and left.Clayton nodded slightly and followed behind Nicole. He completely avoided the gaze of the couple behind her.Inside the elevator, Nicole’s face sank.“Mr. Sloan, who do you think is lying?”Clayton did not know what Yuliana said, but he saw her running out with the child in her arms earlier.He recognized Yuliana from the celebration party.Clayton narrowed his eyes and hesitated for a few seconds. He said with certainty, “They’re all lying.”Nicole looked at him in surprise. Clayton smiled faintly and swept away the panic and intense feeling that Nicole felt earlier.It was like fine spring rain that made her relax.Nicole also smiled.The elevator arrived at the lobby.
Molly froze and immediately shook her head. “Absolutely not!”Nicole could finally rest assured.She smiled and took a sip of coffee. The few of them changed their clothes and went to the core research lab.Clayton and Logan were very involved in the tour. In fact, they could just look at the data on the report, but the site visit was more impactful.Molly introduced the latest progress in the front.“In fact, our focus is on intelligent living, not only on the scope of smart home devices, but also in the decor and design, like maintaining the temperature and humidity throughout the year, waterproofing, and fire extinguishing. Of course, the most difficult thing to control is the change of human emotions. We have now completed the detection of human emotions, so the indoor space can be converted based on happiness, anger, sadness, or any subtle mood changes. We have applied the latest medical research to this. The artificial intelligence chip will automatically detect human health
In J&L Corporation, Molly Stewart had millions of dollars in annual salary. She also had bonuses and allowances, so she was not interested in money.Molly lowered her eyes and suddenly opened her arms and shouted, “I want to be famous!”Nicole blinked and curbed her smile.“This... Will be a little difficult.”It was also not as practical as making money.After Molly was done daydreaming, she dragged Nicole to her research room and introduced her to the gadgets she invented.It was true that scientists’ brains were different from normal people’s.A regular girl’s way to relax was shopping, eating, and more shopping.However, Molly’s way of relaxation was to do research.Nicole was afraid that Molly’s body would collapse, so she dragged Molly to the nearest gym to sweat it out and relax. They told Clayton about it and ran out.Molly was familiar with skipping work, so she must have frequently gone out of the office during work hours.She scrolled through her phone and said,
