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.
