The Deserted Rich Beauty (Nicole and eric) novel Chapter 35

Samantha's face turned pale and her body trembled slightly.

Nicole laughed. "Samantha, if I expose this recording, the company will thoroughly investigate all the projects you handle. If so, you won't be able to stay in this industry anymore and might even be imprisoned. Are you really willing to give up your career for FH Corporation?"

Samantha would not give it up.

A trace of panic flashed in Samantha's eyes as her face paled. She immediately spoke with a respectful tone, "Nic- Vice President Nicole, I was too reckless earlier. FH Corporation’s project isn’t that great anyway, and that company is in fact already an empty shell..."

Nicole nodded with satisfaction. "Then don’t mention the cooperation with FH Corporation in the future. I recognize your capability, but you have to use it for your own work. Don’t worry about other companies." i

"Yes, Vice President Nicole." Samantha stiffened slightly.

After dealing with Samantha, Nicole had to study J& L's project. Getting this project was imperative because, besides Eric’s Ferguson Corporation, there

was no other company that had a stronger background than Stanton Corporation to compete for this project.

Nicole found out that Ferguson Corporation did not intend to get involved in artificial intelligence, so she was confident about landing this deal.

The sky gradually dimmed. Logan came into Nicole's office with a stack of documents and said, "Ms. Nicole, J&L Corporation's dinner turned into a networking party. They invited a lot of people and intend to announce their project partners on their anniversary. They’ve sent us a VIP invite. Should I contact them beforehand?"

Nicole rubbed her temples. "J&L Corporation is pretty confident in their project. They know that they have a big slice of the pie and everyone's waiting to get a cut. There's no need to contact them in advance. We have the best conditions, so we'll just attend the party."

Logan nodded. "Yes, Vice President. Do you need me t o arrange for a car to take you home?"

Nicole glanced at the time. It was indeed quite late. Just as she was about to leave work, there was a knock at the door. Ian stood there with a seductive smile and looked devilishly handsome. "Ms. Stanton, d o I have the honor to invite you to dinner?"

Seeing the man, Nicole could not help but smile. "Of course, I'd love for Second Young Master Carter to buy me dinner.”

Logan wisely retreated.

Ian was a gentleman and went over to put on Nicole's coat, took her bag, and excitedly said, "I've driven away our biggest third wheel, Hugh, so we can finally have some alone time today!"

Nicole rolled her eyes at Ian and did not take him seriously because Ian was always flirting and fooling around with countless women.

"I’m hungry. What are we eating?"

"There's a new lovers' restaurant in South City..." Before Ian could finish his words, Nicole swept a glance at him, so Ian continued, "...That I just opened, s o let's go check it out."

Nicole strutted out in her stilettos. Ian followed closely behind her with a smug face.

The restaurant was on the top floor of the building that had a great view of the city. They could see the colorful neon lights scattered everywhere that showed the vibrance and opulence of the city.
