Noah Stanton could not stop the words that came out o f Jade's mouth in time.
The temperature in the air instantly dropped to a freezing point.
A chill permeated every inch of the air.
Everyone knew that Nicole’s mother had passed away many years ago. It was a tragic topic that the Stantons could not bear to mention.
If Floyd Stanton heard such words, he might even get someone to kill Jade immediately, much less Nicole!
Where did Jade get the guts to bring up Nicole's late mother in front of her and even scold her at the same time?
Jade saw Nicole's suddenly grim expression and realized that she had misspoken.
She subconsciously turned to Noah. The angry expression he had earlier instantly disappeared.
Just when everyone thought that the tense atmosphere would never end.
Nicole’s cold eyes were affixed to Jade for a long time.
Her gaze was deep and dangerous.
She curled up her lips indifferently and spoke in a cold voice.
"Jade Smith, I’ve been too soft on you, haven’t I?"
From the moment Jade spoke, Nicole did not intend to let her off easily.
Jade froze and was just about to explode when Noah grabbed her arm. "Shut up! You don't have the right to speak up here."
Noah's attitude confused Jade.
"Noah, I’m only doing this for you..."
Noah gnashed his teeth and continued frowning with displeasure in his eyes.
"Nicole, she didn't mean what she said, so don't take it to heart. However, business is business, so why shouldn’t we go ahead with a project that will make money for the company? Besides, we invited professional research teams to develop the product. W e even hired famous specialists, both local and abroad. Even if someone comes to investigate, we have nothing to fear!”
Nicole laughed coldly and said in a mocking voice," This project has been in development for at least several decades and is a unique breakthrough for the world. What expert did you hire?"
A specialist?
Even if all the experts and specialists from all over the world came together, they would not be able to compare to Maverick Stanton!
How shameless could they be?
Did they want to ruin this project and the reputation o f Stanton Corporation?
