Chapter 1539
At this moment, he could not help but to beat himself up for it. If he had not ran home just because he was unable to withstand the pressure, he might very well be the person standing beside Nicole today.
"We... are indeed, not even friends."
Berating himself, Lloyd lifted his glass and took a swig.
Seeing this, Nicole could only issue a sigh. 'Why is Lloyd so obsessed with our relationship?'
"Lloyd, you should know the organization's rules. Whether it's the Interpol or Zane's Organization, the rules are all the same. We have never met before, and now, we're meeting for the first time."
Nicole's words were clear and concise.
However, it was then that a gleam appeared in Lloyd's eyes. "That means, we can start over again, right?"
Frustrated with him, she thought, 'Do I need to spell everything out for him just so he would get it?
Taking a deep breath, Nicole proffered her hand. "Greetings, I'm Nicole Riddle."
Lloyd looked at Nicole's outstretched hand and was delighted.
He had not think that Nicole had meant this when she had rejected him time and time again back then.
Tm such a fool, to think that I called her S before everyone...'
Finally understanding Nicole's intentions, Lloyd stretched his hand out." Hello, I'm Lloyd Holder."
The two tacitly knew that they were starting over again. Everything that had happened prior, was nothing but a dream in a life long gone.
"Hello, Mr. Holder. I've come to you with a business proposal."
Even though they were partners before this, Nicole was still intent on drawing that line, and though she needed his help, she did not want to owe him a favor.
