The quiet dinner table was disrupted by a single sentence from Kendrick.
Nicole looked up with a hint of surprise in her eyes as she glanced at him. "Is that really possible?"
If what he said was true, it would mean that her base could start operating sooner, and they wouldn't have to worry about construction delays.
"Since we're in a partnership, and for both sides to progress smoothly, I believe this arrangement is the right choice." Kendrick earnestly nodded and looked at Nicole with affirmation.
Chloe was also surprised by his proposal. She had initially thought that he had invited them to dinner to show off. She hadn't expected him to genuinely discuss work-related matters. Indeed, the previous location wasn't suitable for such discussions.
It seemed that they were assuming the worst intentions based on their mindset.
Nicole exchanged a glance with Chloe and then looked back at Kendrick along with Chloe.
"Mr. Hofstead, since you've said so, it might seem overly particular if we continue to decline. We'll accept the offer," Nicole agreed. After all, this arrangement was beneficial for both parties, and there was no need to make things awkward.
"However, there's one thing I hope you can agree to."
Nicole suddenly realized an issue and paused for a moment before speaking up.
Kendrick, intrigued by Nicole's tone, looked at her with interest. "Please, Miss Anderson. Go ahead."
This was the first time he saw Nicole speaking with such an attitude ever since they got to know each other, and it was rather amusing.
"Although this arrangement benefits both parties, I still intend to pay the rent," Nicole proposed. This was no small matter, and she wanted to clarify it before using the factory.
Kendrick raised an eyebrow slightly and nodded silently. "Sure. Let's do it that way. As for the amount, you can decide on it."

What a waste of reading! This could have been an excellent novel if it hadn't skipped chapters after 531 and then everything is garbled. Get your act together if you still want a reading audience!!!...
