Chapter 2057
"It's a deal." Lawrence then said with a bright smile, "I'll be looking forward to that feast."
"Sure. You can choose the time and place," Nicole happily agreed.
Lawrence had helped her, and it was right for her to thank him with a meal.
"Okay then, I won't disturb your work any longer." Lawrence said his goodbye as he stood up.
Nicole stood up too. She watched Lawrence leave before returning to her desk and sitting down.
Sometime later, Nicole received an email from Ian. She opened it and read it, nodding approvingly. "It's a very good
project, indeed."
After reading it, Nicole forwarded the email to Sean and asked him to consider the collaboration project.
After Sean told her that he had received it, Nicole then closed the document and attended to other tasks.
With this project from Interstellar International, the Riddle Corporation could finally make a breakthrough after
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtgetting stuck in expanding the business.
During the five years Nicole was away, Stanley and Sean did a pretty decent job of managing their planned projects
for the company. However, the families they had a long history with began to think of terminating their partnerships
with the Riddle Corporation because of Nicole's absence.
"The Fire Crest," Nicole mumbled under her breath. 'What is that? Why do the families care so much about it?'
When Nicole thought about how the families wanted to terminate their partnerships just because the Fire Crest was
missing, she could not help but frown even deeper. 'Will everything be resolved once I find the Fire Crest? But
where can I find it?'
Nicole pondered with a serious look on her face and suddenly felt an intense headache. She instinctively massaged
her temples and thought to herself, 'Why does my head hurt so much the minute I think about the Fire Crest? Does
it have anything to do with me? I guess not...'
"Nicole." Suddenly, someone knocked on the door and entered the room.
Sean saw the stressed look on Nicole's face and froze. Then, he walked briskly to her desk and asked, "What's
wrong?"
"It's nothing." Nicole shook her head and felt a little better. Then, she looked at Sean and said, "What brings you
here, Sean?"
"It’s about the Interstellar project. I think we can work something out, so I came to ask for your opinion," Sean said.
However, he was still a little worried about Nicole as he looked at her with a serious expression.
"I think so too. If you have no problem with it, we should get someone to arrange a meeting." Nicole's face looked a
little better when talking about work.
However, Sean was still worried about her, so he said, "I'll handle that. You don't look like you're feeling very well.
You should take the day off.”
"It's okay. I’m feeling better now." The headache she felt seemed to go away after not thinking about the Fire Crest.
"No, you've got to go back." Sean, for once, spoke firmly.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNicole indeed looked like she was not feeling well, and he clearly saw how much pain she was in when he came in
earlier.
Seeing how insistent Sean was, Nicole had no choice but to leave the office and go home.
Gloria was surprised to see Nicole home so early. "Why did you come home early today? Did anything happen?”
Nicole answered evasively because she did not want Gloria to worry. "I felt a little tired, so Sean told me to come
back and rest."
"Hm, your brother did the right thing. You should rest if you're feeling tired." Gloria agreed with Sean's decision.
Nicole could not help but smile internally as she felt a warmth filling her heart. She was always the most important
thing to her family, not even the company could come close.
Nicole sat beside Gloria and hugged her arm. Then, she leaned on Gloria's shoulder and said, "Yeah, I rarely get to
have time off and spend some time with you."
"You don't have to do that. Just go and rest." Even though Gloria was filled with joy, she was still concerned about
Nicole and wanted her to rest.
Nicole felt helpless and said in a coquettish tone, "I'm already resting whenever I’m not at work."
She did not listen to Gloria and insisted on staying with her.
Then, she swept her gaze across the house and asked curiously, "Where's Dad?"
