Chapter 2728
'This is definitely a good project. Nicole must have a lot of faith in me if she is handing it to me. She’s trying to help me out too. But whether I can meet her expectations or not is another question altogether. What if I lose in the bidding...'
All of a sudden, Ellar tensed up, and he began straining his eyes. Then, he picked his phone up, wanting to make a call.
After thinking about it for a moment, however, he placed it down and composed himself.
Nicole did not call me to tell me about this at all. Instead, she has faxed the document over. I guess this shows that she places a lot of trust in me. Because of this, I think I should take care of this myself without bothering her,' Ellar thought.
Gritting his teeth, Ellar made the decision to rely on nobody but himself in solving his conundrum.
All this time, Nicole had been guiding and aiding him along the way, and now that she was showing some faith and trust in him, Ellar should not let her down.
Having made his mind, he sifted through his list of contacts and called one of the numbers. "Please inform the project and marketing department that we will be gathering at the meeting room now. I also need you to make a few more copies of the document we have just received and send it to the meeting room."
After the call had ended, Ellar tidied up the pile of documents on his desk, strutted out of the office, and made a beeline for the meeting room.
Although they had to manage a massive workload over the past few days, Ellar knew that what he needed to do at that moment was to focus on the important things. The last thing he wanted at a time like this was to let Nicole down.
As for what Patricia had said...
Two days passed in the blink of an eye.
Nicole was just working as usual. Every threat that had been issued on the anonymous letter did not translate to actions in real life. It was as if they had just played a prank on her.
However, news about Chloe's arrest had been exposed, and it quickly made the headlines.
As expected, Chloe's odious actions shocked the public, but there was also a sizable minority that was sympathetic to her.
"Nicole, have you seen it? News about Chloe's arrest is circulating now," Lulu chirped upon stepping into Nicole's office.
They had finally gotten what they wanted: retributive justice.
