Chapter 1116


    "I''m not hungry yet..."


    "It doesn''t matter," she interrupted.


    "It''s already afternoon, and we still have to eat.Lunch is on me."


    Fiore held her head up high and looked at Jared.She was waiting for him to get up and head out with


    her.


    Seeing Fiore''s insistence, Jared knew that he could not decline.


    Knowing this, he casually stood up and said, "Since you''re here in my turf, I''ll be buying us lunch


    instead."


    "You''re always so thoughtful.I''ll dly ept, then."


    Fiore smiled and walked out together with Jared.


    Back in the restaurant, a portion of Harvey and Nicole''s order had been served.


    "Sir, please enjoy your food.The rest of the order will be served shortly," the waiter exined in a soft


    tone.


    "Alright."


    "Let''s give it a try, Nicole."


    Harvey''s eyes lit up as he stared at the dishes.


    "The ting makes the dishes look really inviting."


    "Well, it''s pretty good,"


    Nicoleplimented after she took a piece of yam and chewed it.


    "Yeah.Even these chunks of beef stewed in the broth.Every bite is so rich in vor."


    Harvey could not help but express one ttering remark after another about the dishes on the table.


    "Anyway, you still haven''t answered my question.When are you flying abroad?"


    Harvey mentioned again.He was eyeing her, eagerly awaiting her reply.


    Nicole looked at him.


    "Are you that interested ining along for the project of the manned flying car?"


    "Actually, I''m not interested in joining," he said.


    "I''m just curious about it."


    He could not be forting with the fact that he wanted toe along because of her.


    Owned by N?velDrama.Org.


    Otherwise, he would have lost his chance of going with her.


    "Curious? There is a time and ce for you to fill your curiosity, and this is not it.If that is your reason, I


    would suggest not going at all.There''s nothing there.Our days will be boring and uneventful, filled to the


    brim with discussions, experiments, and repetitions the entire process until we achieve a desirable


    result." Nicole exined to Harvey truthfully.


    After all, there was nothing attractive there for her as well, and if it were not for Jared, she would not


    have agreed to join the project.


    Nicole was furious at the thought of Jared.She scooped a piece of the food in front of her and took a


    big bite.


    "Don''t you think it''s cool for a group of people to work on a problem together? Everyone has different


    ideas and when it alles together, interesting things tend to ur.To me, it''s a ce filled with


    challenges and innovation.Even if I have no knowledge about these things, being able to witness these


    experiments will be a joy,"


    Harvey said, trying really hard to make his exnation sound reasonable.


    "I''ve never seen you being this persistent over something."


    She looked at him with a deadpan expression on her face.


    "Because you''re so eager toe along, I''ll let you know once everything is confirmed.But I have one


    request."


    "What would that be?"


    Harvey stared back, his seriousness matching hers.


    "When we''re there, you may only follow me around.You can''t wander around or touch anything on your


    own.Wherever I go, you go.Whenever I leave, you leave too.You can''t stay there with the development


    team on your own and get in the way of their work."


    Nicoleid her demands out, unsmiling.


    "Not a problem!" he said.


    To Harvey, these demands are nothing but boons for him.


    After all, she was the only reason as to why he wished toe along.


    If he could stay by her side all the time, he would be screaming with joy.


    "Okay, but let me make this clear," she said.


    "If, and when you do go against our agreement, I''ll send you back at once, and you won''t be allowed to


    follow me around anymore."


    "I''ve always kept my word.I''ll fulfill whatever I''ve promised you, so don''t you worry."


    Harvey maintained a deadpan expression on his face as he assured Nicole.


    "Anyway, try this out."


    Harvey scooped a dish and served it to Nicole.


    Coincidentally, Jared was walking toward their general direction when he saw the gesture taking ce,


    and it was then that Fiore saw that Jared had stopped walking.


    She walked up to his side and asked, "Are we sitting here?"
