Chapter 1781


    As she entered the venue with Jared, it was only then did Nicole feel somewhat at ease.


    Behind them, Samuel and Spencer had arrived at the venue too and they followed closely behind the


    couple.


    After Nicole and Jared walked into the venue, they saw the luxurious venue.


    For theunch of this manned flying car, the venue was set up using a particrly avant-garde


    technological concept.


    In the center of the crowd, Terry was briefing everyone and testing the manned flying car''s various


    functions and abilities.


    Many CEOs were gathered before the stage and they watched carefully with a look of awe in their


    eyes.


    And Kelly was apanying a CEO, whispering a few words with him from time to time.


    Max walked up and whispered to Jared, "The man beside Kelly is the CEO of the biggest car


    manufacturer in Mercadia."

    Nicole could also see the embarrassment on Kelly''s face, and it seemed like thetter had been asking


    her a lot of strange questions.


    Nicole was just about to go over when suddenly, a figure unexpectedly walked over to Kelly''s side first.


    Jared and Nicole looked at each other and there was a hint of surprise in Nicole''s eyes.nove.l.e.book


    She knew that Ike would definitely attend theunch press conference.


    But at this moment, Ike was wearing the uniform of a Johnston Group staff! Nicole raised her eyebrow


    and asked Jared, "When did you let him into thepany?"


    "Didn''t we already agree to that at dinnerst time? So, he got his team to join thepany two days


    ago," Jared said somewhat nonchntly.


    Nicole frowned.


    "You don''t suspect anything when he wanted to join this project so proactively?"


    She knew Ike somewhat, and while he was a science maniac, for him to abandon his job at


    Mr.Harmon''s side and to join Jared''s project just like that...It felt...wrong.


    Ike was a man of honor who would stand by his morals and principles.So it was extremely strange.


    "I''ve investigated, and his team had a conflict with the two who were trying to make things difficult for


    you.Since his team was being stepped on, he chose to leave."


    Naturally, Jared was suspicious so he had this investigated first.


    Nicole was silent.She too had left because of those two back then.


    ‘So, it''s not impossible for Ike either.."


    Letting out a sigh, Nicole did not say anything else.


    "Got it, but be on guard."


    Although Ike was not a bad person, she always felt uneasy for some reason.


    "Don''t worry.I know that.I won''t allow him to touch any core tech for the time being."


    Nicole nodded.


    It seemed like Jared knew what she was concerned about.


    The two then looked at the rich businessman and seeing that Ike managed to answer his questions so


    quickly, nove.l.e.book the CEO''s expression turned somewhat approving.


    Jared could not help butugh.


    "It looks like he still has some use."


    Nicole''s gaze was calcting.


    "Ike''s capabilities aren''t limited to this."


    Those words caused Jared to feel a little jealous.


    "You seem to admire him."


    Nicole sensed that this guy found an opportunity to be jealous, so she quickly added, "No, I never


    admired any other man.Don''t twist my words."


    Jared smiled and felt a little better.The two of them originally thought that they did not need to go over


    to speak with the CEO over there.
