Nicole did not care about Dominic's reputation. The anger in her heart had not subsided yet.
Harvey's reputation had almost been smeared to the point of no return, but not only did Dominic not say or do anything, he even made a private settlement with Viola.
How revolting was that?
"I'm not interested in being a stickler regarding the unspoken rules, but I've already told you what Harvey Sage means to Stanton Corporation. You didn't take that seriously and almost sent Harvey on a path of no return. I’ve taken this incident to heart. If it happens again, don't even try to mention Kai's name. It'll be useless even if Kai comes."
Dominic froze. Although his expression was unpleasant, he could only smile ingratiatingly.
"Thank you for your generosity, Ms. Stanton."
To the side, Clayton laughed and eased the atmosphere.
"Nicole, don't scare Mr. Young. That's not what you said just now."
Dominic subconsciously looked over at him. Clayton glanced at Nicole and spoke with a smile.
"Mr. Young, don't take Nicole too seriously. She just told me in private before we came here that we can't blame you. You saw the bigger picture and acted for the good of the company. Everyone in this circle has a trick or two. Nicole is an outsider in the entertainment industry and doesn't know the rules. She screwed things up on a whim, but it’s already good enough that you were able to clean up the mess. However... Your method didn't conform to her thoughts."
At those words, Dominic's expression returned to normal.
Clayton's tone was teasing, but his gaze was very sincere when he spoke.
It made people believe that what he said was true.
When Dominic heard Clayton’s words, he sighed with relief and looked at Nicole with a smile.
"I know that you're a highly principled person, Ms.
Stanton. Don’t worry, I'll definitely heed this warning and clean up the company. I'll make sure that you'll be able to buy a few more yachts by the end of this year..."
Nicole rolled her eyes speechlessly at Dominic.
The matter of her asking Kai to buy a yacht had unexpectedly spread to the public.
Hmph!
Dominic smiled brightly. His eyes when he looked at Clayton became more favorable.
Nicole put down her cup and gave him a faint look.
