Livia stood there in a warm coat and boots. She looked a little haggard, but she also seemed to have put on some weight.
"It's been a long time."
Nicole smiled and walked over as if nothing was wrong.
The corners of bivia's lips curled slightly as well, but her smile was pale and feeble.
"Ms. Stanton, I hope I didn't disturb you.”
Nicole nodded. "Of course not. You can contact me anytime. But are you sure you're here for me and not Nathaniel?”
Livia shook her head. A dim light flashed in her eyes.
Nicole's heart thudded. She subconsciously felt that something might have happened between the two of them.
Livia took out a document from the bag she carried with her at all times and handed it over.
"I'm too embarrassed to go to Stanton Corporation to find you. I found out from the others that you'd be here today, so I came here to give this to you."
Nicole took it, opened it, and froze.
It was a company dissolution agreement.
Nicole frowned and her expression changed slightly.
"What's the meaning of this? Isn't this company your painstaking effort?"
Livia smiled miserably.
"Yes, it is, but there's no need for it in the future..."
She took a deep breath. Her eyes glittered like crystal light. Livia hastily lowered her head for fear that tears would fall.
She cowered in her coat like an ostrich.
"Back then, you took out the money and gave me the courage to start over. You helped me find resources, opportunities, clients... Almost everything I have is from you. To be honest, after coming to this point. I feel like you’re the one I let down the most."
Livia paused and choked on a sob.
