Chapter 2606
"That's a relief to hear. Have him take two days off to recover," Nicole instructed.
After a moment of brief silence, Nicole spoke up once more. "The electronic component manufacturing company. Can you arrange a reliable person to manage it?"
Patricia was taken aback by Nicole's sudden approach. "Ms. Riddle, are you really going to go through with this contract?"
"Yeah, what choice do we have? We've already signed it. Maybe it'll be a blessing in disguise," said Nicole. 'One thing for sure is that if I don’t go ahead with this contract, Harvey would never let me go. I'd like to see for sure how capable this guy is. He needs to be taught a lesson.'
"Okay, I'll make the necessary adjustments," Patricia replied, leaving.
Nicole placed the contract into the drawer beside her desk before picking up the other documents on her desk while trying to maintain her composure.
Soon, the sun was setting over the horizon. Nicole had just gotten out of work and walked out of Riddle Corporation. Jared was already parked at the lobby waiting for her.
Nicole raised an eyebrow as she saw the silhouette of Jared leaning against his car with the setting sun shining behind him.
'He looks like a god. How can he be real? He must've saved a universe or something to be blessed with such good looks, ' Nicole mused. She had stopped in her tracks and was unconsciously staring at Jared with a huge grin.
Jared took slow strides toward Nicole. He reached out and ran his fingers through her hair. "What are you thinking about?"
"You," said Nicole, reaching up to cup Jared's face.
"How can you be so good looking? Even as a woman, I'm quite jealous of your facial features." Nicole pouted.
Without a word, Jared leaned down and kissed Nicole's forehead. "You look way better than I ever will," he said with a smile.
Nicole's cheeks flushed bright red when she realized that passersby were looking at them and snickering. She quickly pulled Jared toward their car.
