Nicole took out her phone and looked at the trending topics, then snickered and put it aside without a thought.
She was familiar with the Ludwig family’s background and knew that Keith's parents must have pressured him. Otherwise, knowing his character, he would never willingly admit his fault.
Keith must be hating her guts at this moment.
There was a knock at the door. Samantha Lindt let herself in and smiled. "Ms. Nicole, is it convenient for me to come in and talk?"
Nicole nodded. "Please, come in."
Samantha walked in and glanced at Yvette as if she did not want to speak with the presence of a third person, but Yvette was not perceptive enough to wait outside.
"What’s the matter?"
"I saw that Mr. Logan is preparing some information regarding J&L’s project. Ms. Nicole, you might not know this, but we don’t have much of a relationship with J&L Corporation and have a slim chance for cooperation. If you want to gain your footing in the company, why don't you cooperate with FH Corporation? I know that they have a project that’s very suitable for us."
Samantha placed a document in front of Nicole and raised her eyebrows. She smiled as if she had given Nicole a good deal.
Nicole paused for a moment. "Okay, I'll consider it."
"Ms. Nicole, you ought to close this deal. FH is an old partner, so landing this project will be enough for you t o stand firm in our company."
Samantha targeted Nicole at the meeting but sent her such a big gift after. It would be odd if there was nothing fishy about this.
Nicole raised her eyes and smiled meaningfully." Please call me Vice President Nicole."
Samantha’s face stiffened and her voice suddenly became shrill. "Don't think that you’re all that just because the President is fond of you. Whether you can stay still depends on your luck! Anyway, I've given you this opportunity, so it's up to you to seize it." 4
After finishing her speech, Samatha turned around and left, slamming the door shut on her way out.
Yvette was stunned by this and said, "Are you her boss, or is she your boss?"
Nicole nonchalantly flipped through the file that Samantha gave her. "She assumed that this position would be hers if I didn't show up."
