Chapter 2784
With that thought in mind, Er stopped his search for Patricia and headed off to stay in Nicole’s office.
Soon, dusk arrived, announcing the end of the workday. Er would finally get to see Patricia, as he
had nned.
After exiting the elevator, the group arrived in the lobby on the first floor.
“Nicole? Spencer will be here to pick me up. I won’t be walking with you. See you at the restaurant
later.” Lulu smiled and waved goodbye to Nicole.
“Sure, see youter,” Nicole smirked.
Once Lulu had split from the group, Er announced, “Let’s go!”
“I’ll drive,” Patricia said, and went off to the parking lot to get the car.
By the time Nicole and Er reached the entrance, Patricia was already there waiting in the car. After
they had all gotten in, Patricia drove them to the restaurant Er had booked.
Upon arrival, a bunch of people entered the private room Er had booked. He was rendered
speechless the instant he saw the room filled to the brim with guests.
‘Patricia really isn’t messing around. She literally invited an entire crowd. Even the secretary is here,’
he thought.
Fortunately, Er had made the necessary preparations beforehand by bagging thergest room.
Otherwise, there would not be enough space for everyone.
Patricia, on the other hand, was rather pleased to see the look of shock on Er’s face after a long,
annoying day at work. ‘Pfft. I hope you like buying dinner for an entire crowd. Who in their right mind
would believe your crap about expressing your gratitude for everyone anyway? I already knew your
intentions from the very beginning.’Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All

Er’s intentions were as clear as day to her, even after she had said and done much to let him know
that she was not interested in him. She was wondering if her act of rejection was not clear enough to
him since Er had not reacted to it in any significant way.
“Ms. Riddle,” everyone stood up and greeted her when Nicole entered.
“Sit down, please. There’s no need to be formal. Er just wanted to thank everyone with a
celebration,” Nicole smiled.
“Thank you, Mr. Riddle,” everyone thanked in unison.
Upon hearing Spencer and Samuel express their thanks, Er shot them both a look of disapproval and
comined,” Why are you two joining in on the fun?”
“Hahaha. Why not? After all, you’re treating us to dinner,” the two teased.
“Stop it. I feel like you’re mocking me,” Er whined.
“No, we’re just here to support you,” Samuel exined. “I mean, this is good news, isn’t it? We’re just
having an early celebration for you before you secure that bid.”
“Well, I appreciate it. Thank you, I’ll do my very best,” Er promised, serious and unsmiling.
Er genuinely hoped to win the bid to prove to Nicole of what he was capable. He did not wish to
disappoint her.
After all, Nicole was the one who had entrusted this project to him, and he wanted to live up to her
trust.
Don’t put too much pressure on yourself. People need experiences to get better at what they do.”
Nicoleforted and encouraged Er by giving him a pat on the shoulder.
“Yeah,” Er agreed, after which he looked at everyone.” Please, take a seat.”
After everyone had been seated, the server came over to ask them if they would like their dishes
served.
However, Er stopped her before she could signal her coworkers. “Please wait for a moment longer.
One of our guests hasn’t arrived yet.”

“Sure, just let me know when you’re ready,” the server replied and left.
“Who else ising?” Patricia asked, feeling puzzled.
She had already called everyone involved in the project over. She had even begged Lulu to get June,
Spencer and Samuel toe over. Patricia genuinely did not know anyone else who was left out.
Just as she was wondering who that person was, Jared walked in. She was stunned upon seeing
Jared, and after regaining herposure, she turned around and red at Er.
She knew it must have been Er’s idea, and above anything else, she was aware of Er’s intention of
having invited Jared over; Er had indeed been ying dumb all this while.
