The Deserted Rich Beauty (Nicole and eric) novel Chapter 1831

Even without Eric, there were ways for Grant to get to know Mr. Jensen.

The two companies competed for this project, and it was still not known who would be the winner.

They separated business and personal affairs clearly.

Eric was very determined to win this project. When he entered the door, some of the people who were thinking about the project had already surrendered.

However, Grant would not.

Stanton Corporation would not lose to Ferguson Corporation in terms of strength and reputation.

Grant stood up, glanced at Clayton, nodded, and then followed Eric to leave.

He only said this to ease the tension between Clayton and Eric.

Eric had deep roots in Atlanta, and the forces supporting him were complex.

If they really fought, Grant was worried that Clayton would be at a disadvantage.

After all, Grant needed to protect his own brother-in-law.

Clayton looked at Eric's departing back, and his face sank slightly.

At this moment, his phone lit up. Nicole replied to his earlier message.

[I went to do some shopping at the mall. I'm going to Yvette’s place, so come and pick m e up when you're done later!]

Clayton's face looked a lot better. The corners of his lips curved up slightly.

He recalled what Eric said just now.

They had met.

Clayton was a little careless. He did not expect that Eric would be so shameless as t o go directly to Nicole.

He wanted to ask Nicole if she had seen Eric, but how could he ask her about it?

Clayton felt a little apprehensive.

Did Nicole not remember Eric?

Then if Clayton asked her about it, she would definitely pursue it further. How should he reply then?

For the first time, Clayton felt that a question could be so tricky.

Samuel Lindstrom had very devilish features and a pair of charming eyes that could hook someone's soul. Back then, he was also the subject of scandals, but those scandals disappeared after he got married.

He was very capable and took control of the Lindstrom family at a young age. He was also one of the top figures in Baltic

City.

Clayton was only familiar with Samuel because of Nicole.

Samuel smiled, gently clinked the glass in his hand with Clayton's, then took a sip of wine.

"Everyone else is fighting for the project, but you’re here zoning out all alone. You look like you're winning, so I came over to ask for advice. You won’t blame me for being presumptuous, right?"

Clayton raised his eyebrows. "Why would I?"

Samuel sat on the side and glanced at Clayton.

"My wife, Lumi Makinen, previously followed you to invest in a project.

Although it's not much money, she's very passionate about it. But I think that the prospect of this project is just average. I really can't figure out why you’re so optimistic about shared education."

Samuel looked like he was modestly asking for advice, but Clayton could feel a slightly oppressive vibe from him.
