Chapter 3030
"In one month, we will get married," Jared said, giving Nicole a peck on the lips before carrying her
towards the bed...
The next day was bright and sunny.
After breakfast, Jared dropped Nicole off at Riddle Corporation.
As Nicole got out of the car, she waved at Jared.
With a smile, Jared said, 'TH pick you up after work." "Okay," Nicole agreed, smiling as she turned to
enter the company.
Jared watched her for a moment before instructing Max, "Drive." "Yes," Max replied, starting the car.
Leaning back in his seat, Jared spoke again, "Continue preparing for the wedding. It will be held in a
month." "A wedding!" Max sounded excited, "Alright, I understand."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtPreparations had already been underway and were nearly complete, only delayed by recent events.
Now, the plans were back on track.
Jared and Nicole's wedding was a big event, eagerly anticipated by everyone.
Meanwhile, Nicole had entered her office.
Patricia, who was now delivering the documents, was greeted by Nicole with a smile, "How are you
feeling? Adjusting okay to being back?" "I'm doing well, thank you for worrying about me," Patricia
gratefully replied.
"No need to thank me. I'm glad you're adjusting well," Nicole responded with a smile.
As they were talking, Lulu entered the office, her expression somewhat serious as she said, "Nicole,
take a look at this." "What's the matter?" Nicole asked, taking the document Lulu handed to her with a
hint of curiosity.
Lulu informed Nicole, "The Dettson Project has to be halted because a key raw material, which is
scarce, is no longer available.”
Nicole's eyes narrowed slightly as she read the document. "There should be some of that material,
though limited," she said, sensing something amiss.
"Yes, there was," Lulu explained. "But yesterday, the supplier suddenly said they ran out of stock, and
new shipments cant come in. What should we do?"
Halting the project would not only affect the timeline but also had the potential to create more
significant issues down the line.
"First, try to coordinate with other suppliers," Nicole instructed Lulu.
"Understood," Lulu promptly left to take action.
Leaning back in her chair, Nicole pondered. Even if the material was rare, it shouldn't be completely out
of stock.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Ms. Riddle, could there be a problem somewhere in the supply chain?" Patricia speculated.
"It's possible," Nicole replied, her tone growing colder.
Soon after, Lulu returned, looking distressed. "There's no stock anywhere."
Nicole's expression darkened. "Then it's someone's deliberate doing." "You mean..." Lulu started to
realize, hitting her forehead lightly. "How did I not think of that?"
Given the strange circumstances, it seemed likely that someone was intentionally causing trouble.
They had carefully considered raw material availability during the project's initial design and had done
market research before deciding on this particular material. For it to suddenly become unavailable city-
wide was implausible.
"I'll find a way," Nicole said, biting her lip. It seemed they might have to import it from abroad.
"Okay," Lulu agreed. "I'll also keep looking for other solutions."
After Lulu left, Patricia said, "Ms. Riddle, I'll help too." ’Alright,’ Nicole consented, and Patricia left to
