Nicole raised her eyes. "He drove himself. He’ll definitely follow me. Don’t worry.”
Clayton nodded and got in the car, then sent Nicole back to Stanton Corporation.
When Nicole went upstairs, she just so happened to meet Aida who was coming downstairs.
She narrowed her eyes and teased.
"Aida? Are you here to bring food to my brother?"
Aida did not expect to run into Nicole and smiled.
"I didn’t have anything to do today, so I cooked with m y friend and let him try it."
Nicole smiled. "Then my brother must've licked the plate clean..."
Aida looked at her with embarrassment and was about to speak when a familiar voice suddenly sounded from the phone in her hand.
"Lil N, come up and put together the minutes for this morning's meeting...”
It was Grant's voice.
Nicole's expression stiffened. "You guys were on the phone?"
Aida nodded with a smile.
The corners of Nicole’s mouth pulled. 'Oh, Grant heard everything.’
Aida patted her shoulder. ’’Take care..."
Then, Aida smiled and walked away.
Nicole froze on the spot. Her sister-in-law seemed to have changed for the worse.
She dawdled upstairs and was just about to scamper off to her office when she was stopped by Grant, who was standing there waiting for her.
"Lil N... Why are you running so fast?"
Nicole paused. "Oh, I remembered that I still have a lot of work to do..."
Grant smiled as his expression turned cold.
"The project in Sand City is going well, but news just came in that a problem popped up with a batch of materials. We'll need someone to go there and take a look..."
Nicole raised her brows and looked at Grant with a flashing gaze.
