Only the head of the R&D department would be able to get the finished product.Nicole’s face was somewhat cold, and there was a chill in her eyes. ‘Something like this was happening right under my nose. How revolting! Andrew Zeno…’“Ms. Stanton, if you don’t believe me, you can go and see if your company is missing one of the devices. As far as I know, the device has arrived at Andrew’s brother-in-law’s home.”Nicole raised her eyes, her face cold and calm.She smiled. “Ms. Yuliana, did you specifically wait for them to steal the item before you came to tell me this news?”Yuliana froze and lowered her head.Nicole got to the point.“Yes, otherwise you wouldn’t believe me even if I said it…”Nicole chuckled and called Logan in. “Call the police. The company lost something. Investigate the manager of the R&D department and suspend him from all duties.”Logan glanced at Yuliana and immediately nodded. “Understood.”Nicole gave Yuliana her phone back. “If it’s true, how do you w
In the end, Yuliana could not let go of the achievement she had at her fingertips.Nicole paused and nodded.“Alright, fine.”It was not a difficult task.Yuliana sighed with relief and looked at Nicole gratefully. “Thank you, Ms. Stanton. I really appreciate it!”Nicole remembered Clayton’s words and suddenly looked up.“You’ve really never abused the child before?”Yuliana was surprised. “Of course not. I barely stay at home for a few days a year and only have a handful of opportunities to see the child. How would I do something like that?”Nicole nodded calmly. “Okay, I’ll inform you when I’ve arranged the time and place.”It seemed like even if Nicole investigated the matter to the end, it was Andrew’s side that was the most abominable. It was either that or the nanny who was watching the child.Yuliana stood up with a smile. “Okay, I’ll go back and prepare. Ms. Stanton, I also hope that you can meet someone you like sooner and have a lovely baby…”Nicole looked up at he
Nicole nodded in confusion. She really did not remember.Ava York already sat down opposite her. The corners of her seductive eyes curled up and could hook people’s souls away.Ava smiled generously, with an indomitable and strong temperament. “What a coincidence. I didn’t expect to meet you here. It’s been a long time since I’ve met an old classmate.”Nicole smiled politely and said nothing.The waiter served her lemonade. Nicole looked at Ava and asked, “Are you here for lunch too?”Nicole implied that Ava should leave.Strangers would affect her appetite.Ava nodded. “Yes, I just transferred to Mediania for work and I’m not familiar with this place. Fortunately, I met you. Have you ordered? Let’s eat together. This meal is on me…”Nicole frowned and watched as Ava started to tell the waiter to get the menu.The only people Nicole met who were so naturally friendly with strangers were always actors.Ava ordered several signature dishes and handed the menu to Nicole. “What d
Nicole took a sip of lemonade and looked at Ava with a smile.“I can’t help it. My life is good.”Nicole would have gotten back at Ava if it was someone else.When Nicole woke up, she had to be responsible for the livelihood of tens of thousands of people under her hands. She could not even bear to eat if there was just the slightest turbulence in the stock market.‘It’s hard for me as a president too, okay?’ Nicole thought.Ava choked and felt like cotton was stuffed into her throat.She smiled and took out her phone. “Why don’t we add each other on WhatsApp? We’ll keep in contact…”Nicole’s eyes flashed and she hesitated for a split second before agreeing.“Sure…”She really wanted to know what purpose Ava had for showing up here.After adding Nicole’s contact, Ava pushed her phone to Clayton and batted her seductive eyes, smiling flirtatiously.“Let’s add each other too.”Clayton refused gently. “No, I don’t use social media often.”Ava’s hand rested on her chin. Her ey
Clayton suddenly stood up. His face was glum from holding back. He did not lose his temper over such a trivial matter due to his good upbringing.“It’s fine. I’ll go to the washroom.”Clayton looked at Nicole as he spoke.Nicole nodded, and Clayton strode away with his long legs.Ava stood there guiltily. “I was too careless. How could I be so stupid? Nicole, your boyfriend won’t be mad at me, right?”Nicole slowly took a sip of the red wine. “He won’t.”‘He’ll just hate you.’Ava sat back in her seat, nervous and worried.“No, I have to go check if he needs help or not. Nicole, wait here…”Nicole raised her brows. Her smile deepened. “Sure…”She seemed to understand who Ava came here for.After a while, the waiter came up, blushing and hesitating to speak.“Ms. Stanton, I think your friend is being pestered by that woman. Are you sure you don’t want to go and have a look?”Nicole paused. Then, she stood up while holding the glass of wine.“Thank you. I’ll go look.”Even
Ava looked up in surprise.The next second, Nicole poured the red wine she was holding on Ava’s delicate hair. The wine slowly dripped down onto Ava’s beautiful dress.Ava instantly felt wretched and sticky.Ava’s face paled as she let out a cry and took a step back.Then, she glared at Nicole.Nicole smiled and spoke with a cold and indifferent tone.“Since you know that he’s someone else’s boyfriend, who are you trying to hook up with? Does it feel good when you get a sense of accomplishment from challenging someone’s limit?”Ava’s face turned cold, and her charming look faded. There was just a strange emotion in her eyes.“Nicole, you… You’ve misunderstood. How would I intentionally hook up with your boyfriend? We’re classmates. I just…”Nicole’s gaze was cold and sullen. She impatiently interrupted Ava’s words.“Please do your homework before coming here. I was the only girl in my class. Where did you come from?”The atmosphere was instantly silent.Ava thought that wit
This was not a joke. If someone like Nicole did this, there were plenty of people who would take the rap for her. However, Ava’s whole life would be completely ruined!Ava looked at Clayton, who was standing to the side, for help.However, Clayton’s face was indifferent. He did not want to care at all and even had an indulgent attitude.Clayton was a gentleman, so he could not do anything to a woman. If not, this woman would already be leaving with a black and blue face.Seeing Nicole threaten Ava unscrupulously, Clayton felt very satisfied.Ava gritted her teeth. She had to save herself.“Cyndro International…”Ava was about to cry in fear.Nicole paused and narrowed her eyes coldly.“Eric Ferguson?”“N-No, I’m Mr. Ferguson’s subordinate, but he didn’t tell me to come. I’m from Cyndro International…”Ava wanted to continue explaining, but Nicole no longer had the patience to listen to her.Nicole grabbed Ava by the collar and walked back without regard for Ava’s image.Av
Eric’s cold eyes narrowed. The smile at the corner of his lips faded.“Why are you here?”Clayton smiled with a meaningful look on his gentle face.“Mr. Ferguson, you’ve put in so much effort, so how could I disappoint your subordinate’s performance by not being here?”Eric’s eyes were filled with a chill as he looked away inexplicably.Clayton was around, but he did not want to lose his reputation. He looked at Nicole and said in a cold voice, “What did you call me for?”Nicole looked at him for a few seconds and pointed to the room inside.“Take your subordinate away. Eric Ferguson, isn’t it better for a person to act upright and frank? Why do you have to play dirty tricks that only make people feel disgusted?”Eric’s expression instantly darkened. His black eyes were cold.“What do you mean?”Eric was incredibly busy recently. The cooperation between Cyndro International and Ferguson Corporation needed further planning, so he did not even have the time to call Nicole.“Cy
