Right Person, Wrong Time novel Chapter 55

Chapter 55 Go With Me

After returning to her office, Nicole looked somewhat unsettled, and her face took on a look of worry. Resting her chin in her hand, she tapped on Zachary’s Facebook, only to quit his Facebook page upon recalling how he had left in a hurry.

Now that Zachary had his hands full with matters concerning his family, she might cause him even more trouble if she bothered him with such a trifling matter. However, she had few acquaintances in the country, and the companies she had previously worked with were all foreign companies. At the moment, she really felt isolated and helpless.

Holding her cell phone, Nicole glanced up and down her contact list before her finger suddenly paused and tapped on Colton’s Facebook. She and Colton were merely partners, but she figured that he would lend her a hand if she asked him for help. This was a private matter, but since it concerned her son, she had no choice but to bother him. Letting out a sigh, she chose her words in her mind before tapping her fingers on the phone’s screen to compose a text message. It read, ‘President Gardner, I’d like to ask you to help me with a private matter. It’s okay if you’re busy.’

She stared at her phone’s screen for a long time. Seeing that there hadn’t been any response from the other side for a long time, she couldn’t help but feel that the man wasn’t going to help her. Just as she was about to find another way, her phone suddenly beeped with a Facebook message from Colton. It read, ‘Let’s talk about it upstairs.’

Nicole looked at the Facebook message. The message was simple, but its meaning was clear: Colton had agreed to help her. Finally, a great weight was lifted off her mind, and her originally tense nerves relaxed a little. After tidying herself up, she picked up the design drafts on her desk. After all, she had to take something upstairs with her as a cover.

After reaching the top floor, she came to the president’s office, a place she was familiar with. Standing at the door, she knocked on it politely.

A slightly deep and husky voice sounded from the inside. “Come in.”

When Nicole opened the door and entered, Colton happened to be staring at his laptop while tapping on the keyboard with amazing speed. He darted his eyes toward the door. Seeing her coming in, he withdrew his gaze.
