Right Person, Wrong Time novel Chapter 98

Chapter 98 A Heroic Rescue

Thereafter, Nicole quickly turned around to leave as she did not even want to stay on for a second more in this hotbed of dispute.

However, not long after she left the private room, Mason caught up with her.

“Hey, Pretty Lady, is this how you treat someone who got you out of a pickle?” he yelled as he watched her leaving in a hurry.

Nicole stopped and turned to look toward Mason. Earlier in the room, she did not clearly observe his look. It was only now that they had come out from the room to a brighter corridor did she realize that he was actually a handsome man.

Besides the rascal-like smile on his face, there was a tinge of brazenness in his alluring eyes. Holding the cigarette between his fingers and the bright-red hair, he gave the first impression of a good-looking gangster.

“Thanks for helping me out today, President Schumacher,” Nicole said politely.

Nicole reckoned Mason must be some respectable person since even Shaun, the Human Resource Department manager of Gardner Corporation behaved in a servile manner toward him. As such, she knew she did not have to go too far to thank him with money.

“Just call me Mason. Only outsiders will address me as President Schumacher.” Taking a step forward, Mason approached Nicole and sized her up from head to toe.

Unlike the other women in the lounge, she did not wear any makeup today. There was an innocent demeanor on her delicate face, which made her look totally out of place in this venue and it actually gave one a pleasant feeling.

“Sure, Mr. Schumacher,” Nicole called out strangely after she took a step back.

Mason smiled and didn’t really mind. “By the way, what’s your name, Pretty Lady? Who knows we might meet again?”

“I’m Nicole Anderson.”

“Nicole Anderson,” Mason repeated after Nicole. Then, he nodded and praised, “That’s a sweet name. I’ll remember you from now on.”

After getting her name, he did not ask her to continue staying. Instead, he waved her goodbye. “Miss Anderson, it’s better to stay away from places like this in the future. It does not suit you.”

Then, he paused for a moment and winked at Nicole with a smile. “After all, you won’t always be this lucky to bump into a handsome man who swears by justice like me.”
