Chapter 2649

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.
