Right Person, Wrong Time novel Chapter 52

Chapter 52 An Unwelcome Visitor

Gardner Corporation was situated in the center of the city, with Century Square located next to it.

On the top floor of a restaurant in Century Square, Nicole and Colton were sitting next to each other. Colton had led Nicole into a private room, which boasted a nice view despite its small space; its large French window allowed one to see most of the downtown area at a glance. “What would you like to eat, Miss Anderson?” Colton politely handed the menu to Nicole.

Nicole glanced at the menu before ordering a salad for herself.

Colton smiled before ordering another main course and telling the waiter to prepare the dishes. When there were only the two of them left in the private room, he finally said, “Miss Anderson, how do you feel on your first day at Gardner Corporation?”

With a faint smile on her lips, Nicole replied casually out of courtesy, “Not bad.”

Knowing that she had only said so out of courtesy, Colton said frankly, “Miss Anderson, if you’re dissatisfied with anything, you may tell me directly.”

Nicole gave a light chuckle before looking up at the man. As her gaze fell upon him, she suddenly asked, “President Gardner, there’s one thing that I’ve been curious about. Do you mind if I ask?”

Smiling, Colton nodded and replied in a husky voice, “You’re wondering why Gardner Corporation decided to engage in the clothing industry?”

As expected, it saves time and energy to speak to a smart person. He knows what I want to ask without me having to voice my question. Nicole nodded.

Gardner Corporation started up as an internet technology company. It owned an entire building in the center of the city, but only a few floors of the building were dedicated to the clothing industry, for the company placed greater emphasis on internet technology. When it came to the internet technology industry, the company was ranked among the best in the world, which brought the man before Nicole a net worth of at least hundreds of billions.
