Chapter 2705
Feeling helpless, Harvey went on to say, "You don't have to turn me down so coldly, you know. After all, my grandfather is still in your hands."
Upon hearing those words, Nicole glared at him. "Please watch your words, Mr. Ellison."
What is he saying? He's making it sound like I'm controlling Thomas and turning his grandfather against him,' she thought.
"Isn't that the truth?" Harvey shrugged. "It's very clear that my grandfather listens to you more than he listens to me now."
"Pfft, so you finally admit that Mr. Ellison is your grandfather now, huh. You were so cruel to him. How is it that you did not bother to acknowledge that you're his grandson before this?" Lulu sneered with disdain.
Nicole's lips twitched as she attempted to restrain herself from giving him a verbal lashing. She was annoyed because Harvey was still there.
'Lulu sure is bold. So is it better to acknowledge him as a grandson or not?'
Harvey looked upset as he glanced at Lulu coldly. ’Although you are in charge of the joint project between Riddle Corporation and Ellison Group now, you should still know your place. You're just an errand runner, and nothing more."
His connotation was clear; he was only paying attention to Lulu because of Nicole. Otherwise, he would not have even bothered to speak to her.
Lulu knew this, so his reply did little to anger her.
Instead of reacting, she simply shrugged and said, "Don't worry. There won’t be much for me to do soon."
She was waiting for Nicole's plan to succeed, and when that happened, she would see if Harvey dared to maintain his arrogance with her.
Harvey frowned upon hearing Lulu's retort. He felt that there was something off putting with what she had just said. But when he looked again, Lulu had already lowered her head to get a sip of water from her glass, so he stopped paying attention to her.
Believing that his warning had put her in her place, Harvey turned his gaze back to Nicole. "I have something to discuss with you."
"What is it?" Nicole frowned.
"Ellison Group's anniversary celebration. As a shareholder, this event is one that you should attend, so I am cordially inviting you to attend our anniversary celebration." Harvey smiled.
"Are you sure that I should attend the anniversary celebration, even though I am just a shareholder of a small electronics factory?" Nicole frowned, wanting to refuse his invitation.
