Gerard Lichman raised his eyebrows. "In any case, I was the one who overstepped in the first place. Ms. Nicole, if you'd like, you can come with me to meet our core research team. Not everyone will have the opportunity to see it."
Nicole agreed without a second thought. After all, if she knew about the latest research technology of J&L Corporation, she could grasp the market first and would get a better grasp on the development of artificial intelligence in the future.
Once the three of them walked out, Gerard turned to Logan and said, "Mr. Logan, I'm afraid you don't have access to the lab because it has our company's secrets. Don't worry, I will ensure that Ms. Nicole gets back safely.”
Logan looked at Nicole hesitantly. Nicole understood Gerard's concern, so she nodded at Logan and said, " You can go back first. I’ll be fine."
"Yes, ma’am."
Nicole and Gerard got into Gerard's car. They sat in the back with the curtains closed, so they could not see what was going on outside. Nicole thought to herself, 'Gerard Lichman is that cautious, huh? I'm looking forward to this visit even more now...’ "Mr. Logan used to be Grant Stanton's right-hand man but he now works for you. It looks like Mr. Stanton really values you. No wonder you decisively refused the idea of remarriage when I mentioned it earlier. With such a good backer, who will repeat the same mistake?"
Gerard pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses and spoke with a smile.
Nicole paused and replied in a clear and cold voice, "M r. Stanton values me because he has a good eye."
Gerard raised his eyebrows. 'It seems like Nicole won't give Eric the time of day no matter what he does...’
After twenty minutes, their car drove into an underground garage.
As soon as they got out of the car, the surrounding lights were as bright as day.
The building had a uniform shade of Morandi gray, which was hard to distinguish. Perhaps it was designed as such to be discreet.
Gerard took Nicole to the elevator. He reached out to scan his fingerprints on the screen in front of him. After three times of recognition, the elevator door finally opened. Gerard extended his hand. "After you, Ms. Nicole."
