Right Person, Wrong Time novel Chapter 308

Chapter 308 Need an Office

“Let’s take a stroll over to President Gardner’s office,” Nicole said before she started leading the way. Whitney’s eyes lit up—she had nearly forgotten how Nicole and Colton had some history together. “Do you have any ideas, Nicole?” Whitney hurried after the other woman.

“Mrs. Gardner wanted me to be Gardner Apparel’s CEO previously, but I rejected her offer. However, I believe it’s now pretty easy for me to request a position in Gardner Corporation,” Nicole uttered with a smile. Whitney seemed to understand what Nicole meant as she hastily nodded while cheering. “I knew you’d come up with a plan, Nicole!” She stuck closely behind Nicole as they headed to the top floor.

Nicole got Whitney to wait outside while she headed into Colton’s office alone. Tony wasn’t surprised to see Nicole as he greeted her politely before letting her in. Colton was seated at his desk in the office, and he seemed to be thinking about something as he stared at his computer. When he saw Nicole walking in, he shifted his gaze toward her.

“Nicole,” he spoke gently while giving her a sincere smile. She strode over to his table while maintaining eye contact with him. “I got chased out by your staff members from the design department. What do you think I should do now?” she asked with a smile.

“What?” A confused look surfaced on Colton’s face when he heard what she said. Nicole explained herself in a leisurely tone when she saw Colton’s cluelessness. “F&M Apparel and Gardner Corporation are working together, but I’m no longer part of F&M Apparel, so they sent a new staff member over. Since there’s a person to take over my job, they decided to chase me out of the office,” she uttered.

Colton chuckled when he sensed the anger in her tone. “Are you unhappy because of that?” he asked.

“I wouldn’t dare to be angry. I obeyed their orders and left the office—I’m here to bid goodbye now, President Gardner.” Nicole continued to smile—she didn’t sound angry, nor did she sound like she was there to snitch on someone else. Colton could tell that Nicole had shown up because she wanted to express some of her annoyance to him, but he suppressed his laughter as he addressed her statement. “So, what’s your plan from now on, Miss Anderson?”
