Nicole smiled when she understood what Jared meant." Sure."

this document was nothing short of a significant blow to him and his ego.
After signing the document herself, Nicole looked at Jared and asked, "Did you come all the way here just for this?"
"Yes," Jared replied with a light snort.
"Do you really find Thomas untrustworthy?" Nicole asked, unable to help but find this situation amusing.
She understood that Jared's sudden appearance was likely due to him having gotten word that Thomas had come
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtto see her. He was probably worried he might put her in a difficult position.
However, none of them had anticipated the decision Thomas had made.
"He won't hurt you, but he will still protect Harvey," Jared explained, stating the reason as to why he was worried
that Nicole would be in a difficult position had Thomas chosen to plead with her instead.
Had that scenario unfolded, Nicole would have no problem standing her ground if he was aggressive and tough in
his approach. However, it would be challenging for her to decline him if he had resorted to emotional pleas instead.
"Don't worry. After all that has happened, I won't give Harvey a chance to fool around again," she declared.
Even if Thomas's heart had softened, hers would not.
Upon hearing that, Jared gently stroked Nicole's hair, his eyes filled with loving tenderness. "That's good."
"But seriously, Thomas's proposal isn't bad. It's a win-win situation." Nicole shrugged, thinking that Thomas had
probably busted his brains trying to come up with this solution.
"Ah, Nicole, Mr. Ellison just..." Lulu pushed the door and entered just to see Jared standing there.
She froze for a moment, whereupon she flashed him an awkward smile. "Oh hey, Mr. Johnston. You're here too."
"What's the matter?" Nicole asked Lulu.
"I just saw that Mr. Ellison has left, so I came over to ask how it went," Lulu answered.
She was genuinely concerned about this issue, as such opportunities were rare to come across.
In response, Nicole handed the document to Lulu and said," Take a look at this."
"Oh." Lulu grabbed the document, and after reading through its contents, her eyes widened in astonishment. "Is
this what he actually suggested?!"
'Heavens, this is really unexpected! I thought Thomas had come to intervene on Harvey's behalf,' she thought.
"Get a reliable person to take care of this, please," Nicole ordered Lulu.
"Okay.’ Lulu beamed in satisfaction. "Holding this document feels so good! It holds so much power! I'm sure Harvey
is furious right now."
Nicole shook her head with a wry smile etched on her face." It's more like a curse, I suppose."

act smug and create another mess for you in the future."
Unable to contain her amusement, Nicole laughed at the look of annoyance on Lulu's face. "I think you should be
more concerned about the possibility that Harvey won't just give up."
If that were the case, Ellison Group would be in turmoil for longer than it needed to be.
"He better not!" Lulu replied, grimacing.
After she had said that, she waved the document in her hand and said, "I'll be going now. We need to take care of
this as soon as possible."
"Go ahead then." Nicole nodded in agreement.
After Lulu had hurried off, Nicole glanced over at her watch and said, "It's almost noon. Let's have lunch together."
"Sure." Jared, with eyes brimming with tenderness, grabbed her hand.
Then, the couple left the office together.
Soon after, they found a restaurant they fancied and sat down for lunch.
