Chapter 1182
"Did you forget something?" Harvey demanded.
‘Forget something? What do you mean by that?" Nicole replied with a question of her own, as she did
not understand what he had meant.
"Before we came here, didn''t you promise to bring me to theb with you? Now, you''ve gone off on
your own and left me aside at the hotel without saying a word. What is this all about?" Harvey
questioned, his tone brimming with dissatisfaction.
"Ah. I''m really sorry about that. I''ve been terribly busy since the day Jared dragged me out of the
restaurant. I totally forgot about it." Nicole apologized to Harvey on the phone.
"Anyway, are you still at the hotel?”
"Of course, where else would I be?"
"Looking at the time now, I don''t think you should be here today. How about tomorrow? I''ll arrange for
someone to drive you here.” Nicole asked.
Hearing that Nicole wanted to bring him to theb the next day, Harvey began to smile again, after
which he replied in a serious tone of voice," Sure. Don''t bete tomorrow.”
“That won''t happen. The person I''m sending will be punctual for sure. You just have to make sure
you''re waiting at the lobby on time." Nicole could imagine Harvey''s snickering at that moment.
“Don''t worry about that." After he hung up, Harvey felt a lot moreforted. Til just have to endure this
for one more day, and I''ll get to see Nicole tomorrow!’? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org.
However, it was then that a thought struck him out of nowhere, ‘Will Jared be there too?'' Harvey sighed
and mmed the table.Why did I forget to ask her about this moments ago? If Jared is there as well, I
don''t really want to go anymore.*
However, Harvey could not call Nicole and disturb her anymore. All he could do was pace around the
room and think.
Nicole, on the other hand, was engrossed in her work, and the moment she lifted her head, the sky was
already dark.
A sense of nervousness rose within her. ‘If I head backter, Jared will definitely give me another
lecture again.’
Nicole quickly saved her work and left the office. In the corridor, she met Ike who was running after her
In truth, Ike had been waiting for Nicole toplete her task. He knew that she was busy working on
the chip design at her office. Therefore, he did not enter the room and bother her. Instead, he sat in the
lounge area and waited for her.
"Nicole."
Nicole spun around the instant she heard him calling out to her.
"Ike? Why are you leaving thiste too?" Nicole did not expect Ike to work thiste.
"You, as my superior, are still untilte at night. What makes you think I have the guts to clock out
earlier than you?" Ike joked around with Nicole.
"What superior are you talking about? You tter me." Nicole and Ike walked out side by side.
"Nicole, is the chip design going well?" Ike looked at her and asked.
"It''s fine. There have been some minor issues every now and again, but I''ve managed to solve them."
Nicole nced at him and continued walking.
"You''re amazing! You''ve only seen it once the other day and remembered it. I''m curious, how did you
pull that off?" Ike looked at Nicole with nothing but admiration in his eyes.
"I''m not as good as you''ve been led to believe. It''s just that I have a better memory." Nicole replied
humbly, as she could not tell anyone that she had a photographic memory.
"You''re being a little too modest. Oh yeah, is Mr. Johnston picking you up tonight since it''s thiste
already?" Ike finally asked the question he wanted to ask.
If Jared was noting to pick her up, he would have the chance to send her back home.
"I''m not sure," Nicole, replied, unsure as she had not received any messages about Jared waiting for
her outside theb.
"If Mr. Johnston is not here to pick you upter, I''ll send you back. You won''t be able to get a cab here,"
Ike said, expressing his intentions clearly,
"Alright. I''ll have to thank you for this then.” Nicole looked at him half- jokingly.
