A moment passed.
Monique asked, "What did you just say?"
Nelson turned around and answered, "Miss Monique, I know that you are a smart person. Of course, you were well aware that someone in the company was playing tricks in secret! However, just like what Mr. Westin had just said, because they were elders, and you didn't have solid evidence, it was impossible for you to deal with them. Therefore, you took this opportunity to see how I would deal with them. So, Miss Monique, do you like the way I handled them?"
Rishard finally understood what they were talking about. He looked at Nelson in shock.
Monique showed a little admiration in her eyes, "Well done. I like that you have the courage to confront them face-to-face. It's smart of you too to notice that they were acting strangely. This time, you've done a good job."
Monique had always liked smart people. She couldn't hide her admiration towards Nelson. She had initially thought that Nelson would be in a mess upon her arrival.
She initially thought that Nelson would either back down, or fight on till the end. If one of the scenarios had really happened, she would have taken the opportunity to get rid of him.
However, unexpectedly, he had settled the problem brilliantly.
She had not met such an excellent person in a long time.
Monique's eyes swept over Nelson in appreciation.
"This time, since you've solved the problem nicely, I'll forget about the compensation fees! However, I do have to remind you about the task. There's not much time left. If you cannot complete your task within the given time, then that's it."
Nelson nodded and said, "I will definitely complete it!"
Monique opened her mouth. She was about to say that it wouldn't matter if Nelson was unable to finish his task on time. However, seeing how determined Nelson was, she took back her words.
"Good!"
After Monique left, Richard stared at Nelson in surprise.
"Mr. Luther, when did you find out? How come I never knew about it?"
Nelson smiled faintly and said, "I guess, it's just pure luck! If there's nothing else, I'd like to get off work."
Richard raised his eyebrows, "Are you going to meet Miss George?"
Nelson remained silent, but his face told everything!
Richard frowned again, "Regarding Miss Chilton..." "Didn't Miss Chilton ask us to complete the task as soon as possible?" replied Nelson.
Richard thought to himself, "Are you really going there to complete the task? Or are you just going to go on a date?"
Never mind, forget about it! Richard shut his mouth.
"It's good that you know!"
Richard finally said.
He watched Nelson walk out the door, and let out a sigh.
Naomi received a call from Nelson as soon as she got off work.
"Are you free tonight? Let's have dinner together!"
Naomi was dying to meet Nelson, but as she recalled what Amos said the day before, she let out a sigh.
"I...I have to go home for dinner."
With a bouquet of flowers in his hand, Nelson froze.
When Nelson had passed by a flower shop a moment ago, he couldn't resist the temptation and had bought Naomi a bouquet of flowers. To his disappointment, his flowers would have to go to waste.
"Are those your father's instructions?"
Naomi was startled and shook her head hurriedly, "No, no, it's because...It's because my mom hasn't been feeling well recently. Therefore, I have to be at home for dinner more often. Let me call you back when I'm free!"
"Okay!" answered Nelson.
Nelson knew that she was purposely hiding the truth from him, so he did not try to expose her.
After Naomi hung up, she looked at her phone, feeling upset.
"Why doesn't Dad like Nelson at all? Nelson is actually a pretty good man!" she complained to herself.
While she was deep in her thoughts, her colleague pushed her arm and said, "Hey, someone's looking for you!"
Naomi did not have to raise her head as she knew who it was. She was sure that it was Clint, who had specially come to remind her that it was time to go home.
