Chapter 517 How Would You Believe Me?

Prev Chapter Next Chapter

Actually, Nicole wanted to sleep, but she couldn't. After all, there was a camera in her room, and she

was being watched. It felt terrible and affected her sleep.

However, she had to pretend she was sleeping, lest Vincent noticed anything.

At ten o'clock, Vincent drove back.

Nicole heard the car but did not move. She just sneered in her heart.

It was indeed a trap.

Didn't he say he wouldn't come back tonight?

He actually came back after ten o'clock.

Nicole was still pretending to be asleep, and Vincent entered the house.

Wendy's voice was low, but because it was quiet at night, Nicole could vaguely hear their conversation.

"Mr. Vincent? Didn't you say you wouldn't come back tonight?"

"The job was done. So, I returned to have a rest."

Vincent's voice was also low, and he sounded tired.

Wendy didn't ask anything else.

Before long, everything was quiet again.

Nicole did not know when she fell asleep, but it was only five o'clock in the morning when she woke up.

Nothing could be heard. She didn't feel like getting up and stayed in bed.

After some time, Wendy got up, and it felt like the day just began.

Only then did Nicole sit up and pretend she had just woken up.

She picked up her phone and checked the time. It was past six o'clock. Actually, she wanted to see if

there were any text messages or phone calls.

She hadn't heard from Samuel for a whole day. What exactly happened to him?

Where did he go?

Nicole was getting uneasy.

Even Finn didn't text her.

She really wanted to call Jacob over, but what about Olivia if she did?

Nicole put down her phone and calmed down. Then she went to the bathroom to wash up.

When she came downstairs to breakfast, Vincent looked disturbed.

Nicole pretended to be concerned and asked, "What's wrong? Why are you so worried early in the

morning?"

Vincent hesitated for a moment, then looked at Nicole, and said, "Nicole, I heard you studied car

design?"

"Yes, but I haven't done it for a long time. What's wrong?"

Everyone in Eternal Group knew Nicole was an car designer. Why did Vincent ask that now?

Samuel looked at Nicole and said, "Well, one of our car designers works are not satisfying to the client,

but no one can come up with a better design. The client said if we couldn't settle it by today, we'll have

to pay liquidated damages or something. I just found out you are in car design, so I wonder if you have

the time to come to the company and help us."

"I haven't done it for a long time."

"Nicole, I know it's not nice to trouble you at this time. I also know you are worried about something

else. But Eternal Group is our family business. Big Brother has been taking care of it since day one.

Now it's in my hands, but I can't make it stronger. At the very least, I can't have it fall from grace, right?

I have no other choice. If I could find another designer, I wouldn't trouble you."

Nicole couldn't refuse him since he was desperate.

Although she did not know what Vincent was up to, she still nodded and said, "Alright, I will go to the

company with you after breakfast, but I may not be of help."

"It's fine. I am just glad you are willing to help."

Vincent's face was filled with gratitude, but Nicole knew this was not that simple.

After breakfast, Vincent waited for Nicole to get ready.

Nicole tidied up and felt it hard to quit now. Besides, she had to see for herself what evil plan this was.

She had people take care of Zoe and Joseph at home, while she and Vincent went to Eternal Group.

She hadn't been there for a long time.

She still remembered the first time she came here and saw Samuel. It was clear as day.

Now she came again, but Samuel was no longer there. No one could get in touch with him.

Where did he go?

Nicole suppressed her unease and doubt and followed Vincent into the company.

The front desk lady was new, and Nicole didn't know her.

She followed Vincent all the way to the office and discovered many unfamiliar faces.

It was still Eternal Group, but the people working here were different.

Did Vincent change everyone?

Nicole did not think about it carefully and was taken to the design department by Vincent.

She remembered there were a few good designers here. But now she found out everyone was new.

Nicole frowned slightly.

"Where's Designer Chris?"

She remembered although Designer Chris was a little self-satisfied, his design was pretty good, and he

had been here for a long time.

Vincent quickly said, "He wanted to study abroad. So, we sent him abroad and paid for his intuition,

and he is not in the country."

Nicole glanced at Vincent but could not see anything from his eyes.

After all, she had promised to help Vincent, so she calmed down and said, "I need to know the project's

cooperation plan, as well as the customer's requirements. I need to see what they designed before I

can be sure if I can do it."

"You are being modest. Everyone in this line knows the nickname Catherine. We will definitely be fine if

you help us. I've prepared a design room for you. It's in there. No one will disturb you."

Vincent pointed to the office inside.

It used to be her office, but she hadn't worked there for long, and her project had ended because of

that incident with the Brooks.

After she and Samuel got together, Nicole rarely visited the company.

Nicole had mixed feelings seeing the familiar office again.

"I see. I'll go in and settle in."

Nicole walked into the office.

It was the same as when she left.

Maybe Vincent purposely set it up like this, or no one used it after her.

She felt it was a pity.

When Samuel was still in the company, the design department was flourishing, and it was filled with

talents. However, now it seemed undergraduates packed this place.

How could those people design anything that could satisfy the customers?

Without the guidance of an experienced designer, what could they achieve?

Nicole did not know if Vincent really did not understand the importance of the design department, or he

did it deliberately.

She looked at the proposal given by the client. It wasn't particularly difficult. Nicole felt rage burning in

her heart when she saw what the rookies had designed.

Nicole knew Vincent was in charge of the company, but she could not bear to see people lack off here.

Not to mention the customers, even she couldn't stand the design drawings. How could this trash be

submitted to the customers?

Wasn't he afraid Eternal Group would not live up to its reputation?

Nicole pointed out the problems with the drafts and asked the rookies to modify them. Even if she

couldn't calm down, she had to force herself to design a plan.

After all, this was also the Green’s property.

Nicole spent the whole morning drawing drafts in her office.

She was dedicated to her work. What she marked out benefited the newbies a lot, and they got busy

modifying the drafts.

Somehow it was noon, and Vincent came to ask Nicole to lunch.

However, Nicole shook her head and said, "Order me a takeout. I can't leave now."

"Nicole, don't burn yourself out. There's still the afternoon."

Vincent seemed to care about Nicole's health.

However, Nicole did not look up and said, "Inspiration is a fleeting thing. I'll finish this design while my

mind is clear. You go and have someone bring me a serving."

Noticing that Nicole was persistent, Vincent nodded and said, "Alright, I'll have someone bring it to you

later."

With that, he left the design department.

As soon as Vincent left, those rookies became excited.

"Designer Catherine, we're going to eat. Let's go together."

They selected a represent.

Nicole looked at them and said, "You guys go. I haven't finished drawing this design. The client is

rushing this. Someone will bring me food later."

Those rookies didn't insist and walked out of the department one by one.

Nicole was the only one left in there.

However, she didn't have any other thoughts and was focused on the blueprints.

Actually, the client didn't ask much. He just needed it to look beautiful and have high performance.

Logically speaking, Designer Chris would have nailed such a simple task. No one would have needed

to worry about a thing. Unfortunately....

Nicole sighed again and quickly drew.

After some time, a lunch box was placed on her desk.

"Mrs. Green, this is your meal."

Nicole nodded slightly.

"I see. You can leave now."

After saying that, she froze.

Mrs. Green?

She had just been called Mrs. Green?

Moreover, why did this voice sound so familiar?

Nicole looked up and saw a somewhat familiar man standing in front of her.

But he was not wearing a hat.

"It's you?"

Nicole became alert, and she even looked outside.

Chuck quickly said, "Mrs. Green, why didn't you come last night?"

"How would I know if you were telling the truth? What evidence do you have to make me believe you?

Vincent is a Green and also my husband's twin brother. They are close. Don't you mess them up. I also

don't know the Mr. Bates you were talking about. If there's nothing else, please leave. I have to finish a

draft, and the client is in a hurry. You can't afford to waste my time and affect the company's reputation

and contract."

After Nicole finished speaking, she stopped looking at Chuck.

Chuck was obviously a little anxious.

"Mrs. Green, how would you trust me? You can't get in touch with Mr. Green. Why don't you believe

me? Vincent is not as harmless as he looks! Mr. Green might be in trouble, and it's all because of

Vincent!"

Chuck anxiously grabbed onto Nicole's wrist, but Nicole's eyes darkened
