Chapter 2630

"Let's have dinner before going home,'' Jared said, holding Nicole's hand as they sauntered into the restaurant.

Nicole figured that it was better to eat out too, as everyone at home would have likely finished their meal by the

time they got home.

After sitting down, the two ordered their food.

During the wait, a figure appeared by the table, causing Nicole's brows to furrow involuntarily.

"Hey, Mr. Johnston and Miss Riddle. What a coincidence," Harvey said, looking at the two, seemingly in surprise.

After taking a deep breath, Nicole looked up with a faint smile. "It does seem quite coincidental, Mr. Ellison."

Encountering him at any restaurant was something she did not like at all. 'How could we even bump into him when

we're eating outside? Is this really a coincidence?'

Harvey had noticed her tone, and yet, he feigned oblivion and cheerfully replied, "Indeed, it is. I was just feeling

hungry and wanted to grab a bite when I ran into you both."

"Since you're hungry, Mr. Ellison, please go ahead and help yourself," Nicole said, already starting to shoo him

away.

At this point, she just could not be bothered to waste her time and energy engaging with him.

Hearing this, Harvey smiled awkwardly. 'Nicole sure is blunt. We're already business partners, and yet, she has no

reservations in shooing me away.'

Holding back his feelings, Harvey continued, "Since I've already run into you, I believe there are some details about

our collaboration we should discuss now. Otherwise, I may have to make another trip to Riddle Corporation to see

you tomorrow."

It was clear that Harvey was threatening her. If she ignored him today, he would simply meet her in person at the

company tomorrow.

Nicole furrowed her brows. She did not want Harvey to stay as she did not want him to ruin her appetite. However,

there was no guarantee that he would not show up at her office tomorrow, even if she did not get him off her back

right now.

But just as Nicole was about to make him leave, Jared said," Please, have a seat."

Harvey was momentarily stunned, for he had likely not expected Jared to extend the courtesy to him.

"Okay." Harvey quickly regained his composure and sat down, before calling the waiter over and ordering more

dishes.

"Mr. Ellison, if you have something to discuss, please do," Nicole asked in a business-like manner.

If they were to discuss work, it was best to maintain a professional attitude while they were at it.

Harvey knew what she was doing, but he smiled and politely continued, "We can chat while eating too."

He was not there to discuss work anyway. What he said about work earlier was just an excuse. His true intention

was to stay. Even though he knew he was not welcome at their table, seeing Nicole's annoyance somehow brought

him pleasure.

Nicole frowned when she heard what Harvey had said. "I don't have the habit of discussing work during meals. If

you don't wish to proceed, it's better to meet me at my office tomorrow, Mr. Ellison."

'If you don't want to talk, then just leave right away. Don't stay here and annoy people.'

"Miss Riddle, we are business partners at the end of the day. It's not appropriate to keep such an attitude," Harvey

said as if Nicole had wronged her.

"I think it's fine. Besides, you're the one who wanted to collaborate, aren't you, Mr. Ellison?" Nicole shrugged calmly.

After all, she was not the one who invited him to work with her.

"Heh." Harvey chuckled awkwardly.

As it turned out, Nicole genuinely had no quarter to give him.

He was livid as he gritted his teeth. Jared was there looking at him coldly and calmly, while Nicole was jabbing at

him mercilessly.

Then, the waiter approached him and served him his food." Excuse me, your food is ready."

"Let's eat," Nicole placed the dishes that Jared liked in front of him, whereupon Jared considerately passed some of

the food to Nicole.

The two of them displayed their affection without any care in the world, making Harvey's grimace even more sour

by the minute. He seemed to have dug his own grave, and he suddenly felt that staying was a mistake.

Then, it became clear as to why Jared was willing to let him stay. He had clearly wanted to see him being

embarrassed right in the scene.
