hapter 423 More Handsome and Richer
Early the next morning, Nicole received a call from Kai.
“Newton & Co’s bankruptcy happened so suddenly.
Is it related to Eric Ferguson?” Nicole knew that Grant would notice, but he should not have received this
news so early since he was abroad. She calmly told Grant that Paul Newton was the mastermind behind
the car accident.
Grant was silent for a full minute. His voice turned incomparably cold.
“Make sure Luca’s always with you and don’t let your guard down. You don’t need to interfere with the
rest. Just wait for me to return.”
Nicole agreed and chatted for a while before she hung up the phone.
She focused her efforts on the new project and went to J&L Corporation early in the morning Tucker was
too inexperienced, so he faced some difficult issues and did not know some difficult isst and did not know
how to make certain decisions.
Nicole took all day to teach him patiently. In a blink of an eye, it was already evening. The sun was
setting outside the window, dyeing half of the sky red. It was beyond beautiful.
Nicole stretched her back and intended to leave work. As soon as she left the office, she saw the man
sitting in a wheelchair with an imposing aura.
His sharp and defined features made him look so unapproachable and cold even when he was not
standing tall. Gerard Lichman, who was sitting next to Eric on the sofa, saw Nicole and raised his
eyebrows.
“Ms. Stanton, you’re finally off work!” His tone was very relieved. Gerard loosened his tie.
Just because Eric wanted to wait for Nicole to get off work, he purposely came over in the afternoon and
looked through all their projects and accounts. Eric’s sharp eyes picked out many faults. He was better
than many faults.
He was better than professional auditors! If Eric stayed any longer, Gerard would probably lose his mind.
Once Eric saw Nicole, his eyes instantly became gentle. He looked up at Nicole with a warm smile.
“You’re just in time. There’s a French restaurant that opened nearby. Why don’t you come with me to try
out the dishes?” “Why do you want me to try out food?” Nicole was annoyed. Eric looked at her
aggrievedly.
“Didn’t we agree that you’ll take care of me?” 1 His look made her look like a scum that abandoned him.
The people around them could hardly believe their eyes. Nicole did not want to endure the tormenting
gaze of the crowd.
In an instant, she went up to push Eric’s wheelchair and threw her bag to Luca. “Let’s go and try the food
then.” Nicole felt guilty after all.
