Nicole immediately furrowed her brows. 'Ellison-and-Riddle? What kind of stupid name is that?'

"Ms. Riddle, this... sounds terrible," Patricia whispered to Nicole.

No matter how they thought about it, they did not anticipate that Harvey would have such a twisted sense of

humor.1 Why did he name it like that? Does he have a screw loose? Is he off his rocker?'

"Hello, everyone, I am Nicole Riddle," Nicole interrupted, not wanting to hear what was coming next.

The scene instantly fell silent, and Nicole's gaze swept over the faces of the crowd, her eyes frosty and piercing.

Then, she loudly announced, "Mr. Ellison probably made a mistake. Although this factory is a joint venture, its name

will not be changed."

She did not have the energy to think and come up with a name for the time being, so she decided that it would be

better for her to keep the original one.

"The name's not changing?"

"But that's not what Mr. Ellison said."

The crowd broke out in discussion, but Nicole ignored them and continued, "After all, this factory has been

operating for some time now, and all the contracts are signed under the original name of the factory in question, so

it'll be better for us to retain the name as is."

Though she did not make her denotations glaringly clear to the audience, those who understood her knew that

changing the name abruptly would cause a myriad of legal disputes with the contracts, bringing them much

unnecessary issues in the future.

Soon, the murmurs from the crowd died down, especially from those who had signed contracts of their own with

factories. At that point, they fell silent, and even went as far as to secretly agree with Nicole's statement. They

knew it would make more sense to avoid running into unnecessary problems anyway.

Meanwhile, Harvey shot a glance at Nicole and gave her a subtle smirk. He knew that Nicole would resist the name

change, but little did he anticipate that she would resolve it so easily. After all, he had been prepared to give Nicole

a hard time.

And without giving anyone the chance to continue with their pondering, Nicole began her speech.

"I am honored to invest in Ellison Group's electronic component factory. In the future, Mr. Ellison and I will be

working together to expedite the progress of the factory, allowing it to experience rapid growth."

After spouting a bunch of grandiloquent platitudes, Nicole turned to Harvey and said, "And so, I'll pass the mic to Mr.

Ellison, who'll now fill us in with his vision for the future."

Harvey's smirk froze for a moment as he had not prepared a speech at all.

Nicole immediately understood how he was feeling when she saw the look on his face. She smiled as she knew that

Harvey had not prepared a speech, as he must have been devoting all of his thoughts to stirring up crap for her to

deal with.

"Mr. Ellison, please." Nicole raised her eyebrows smugly.

Harvey could only come forward and look at the people below, before saying, "Well, the speech I've prepared is in

essence the same as Ms. Riddle's. I suppose this is a meeting of minds, so I won't bore you with reiterations of the

same points. Let's cut the ribbon now."

Hearing that, Nicole snuck Harvey a glance. 'A meeting of minds, my foot. Do you even believe that yourself?'

However, she did not plan to continue making things difficult for Harvey. She just hoped to end this staged farce as

soon as possible.

"In that case, let's not take up everyone's time. Let's cut the ribbon, shall we?" Nicole declared, wanting to end the

event as soon as possible and leave.

"Great, next up is our ribbon-cutting ceremony. Shall I invite Mr. Ellison, Ms. Riddle, and our guests..." the host

immediately began the next procedure.

As Nicole and Harvey were already on the stage, the others followed suit upon hearing the announcement.

The ushers lined up in front of them holding a large tray with a pair of scissors tied to a red ribbon around it.

Concurrently, the ribbon with a large flower was also unfurled.

After exchanging glances with each other, everyone picked the scissors up and cut the ribbons, causing the flower

to fall onto the tray. Applause and cheers erupted, and the flashes of cameras went off once again.

When the entire ordeal was finally over, Nicole started sauntering off, preparing to leave.
