Harvey smirked. "Oh don't be in such a rush, Ms. Riddle. We just finished talking about personal matters. Now let's
talk business."
"Business? Could you be frank please?" Nicole asked in a serious tone.
Harvey sighed helplessly as he looked at the annoyed look on Nicole's face. "It's about the factory. They received a
huge international order, and it has over stressed our production limit. So, I'm afraid I would have to ask you to pay
attention to the factory for the time being."
Nicole frowned. "International orders?"
'I haven't received any information regarding this bulk order,' she recalled.
"We had just negotiated and signed off the contract for it. The order has yet to be placed into the factory's system. I
came over to give you a heads up," said Harvey.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Okay, I got it," said Nicole monotonously.
Harvey was surprised by Nicole's calm composure. "Is that all?"
"Yeah, what else is there?" asked Nicole, looking completely unbothered. She blinked at him.
Harvey almost choked. 'How could she not have any reaction after I told her we'd be getting a bulk international
order?'
"Ms. Riddle, after all, this is our factory. Don't you have anything to say about it?" urged Harvey helplessly.
"Then I hope it'll be a huge success for the both of us," declared Nicole. Harvey's pitifulness sent chills down her
spine.
Harvey suddenly smirked. "Right? Since it's such a huge thing for us, why don't we have lunch to celebrate this?"
Nicole looked at him, shocked. 'How on earth did his brain hot wire to link that business he signed to buying a
celebratory lunch?!'
"She doesn't have the time for that," a voice suddenly sounded in the room just as Nicole was trying to find an
excuse to decline.
Nicole's head shot up and looked at the direction of the voice. Instantly her eyes locked with Jared's. Her face
instantly brightened.
"What brings you here?" chirped Nicole, walking towards Jared.
On the other hand, Harvey's facial expression darkened as he unconsciously glared at Jared. "Mr. Johnston, I see
you have a lot of free time on your hands."
Jared looked at Harvey. "It seems to me that you're the one with a lot of free time."
As soon as Jared finished speaking, he took Nicole's hand and intertwined it with his. He turned and looked down at
Nicole. "Is there anything you need to do now?"
"No," said Nicole, deciding to act oblivious to Harvey’s offer earlier.
"Okay, let's go. There's an event we need to attend," said Jared. He did not want to continue interacting with
Harvey.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNicole smiled. "Sure, let's go."
Before leaving, Nicole turned to instruct Patricia, "Send Mr. Ellison off later, and let me know immediately if there
are urgent matters that need to be addressed."
She was still held responsible for everything work related to Riddle Corporation and Harvey was by right not in the
wrong for coming over to discuss work nor could she neglect it either.
"Yes, Ms. Riddle," said Patricia. She turned to look at Harvey. "Mr. Ellison, why don't I escort you to our conference
room?"
Harvey's eyes darkened as he watched Jared pull on Nicole's hand and whisked her away from her office. 'That
douchebag must've done it on purpose.'
Patricia called out again when she noticed that Harvey was not moving. Mr. Ellison?"
Harvey quickly snapped out of it and turned to look at Patricia. "No, it's alright."
Harvey quickly walked away with his assistant in tow.
Patricia smirked as she watched Harvey storm away, 'He tried his luck, but no one can outplay Ms. Riddle herself.'
