Chapter: 49 Throw It Away

Nicole’s alarm clock rang, waking her up
from her beauty sleep.
Nicole had requested to go back to her
apartment last night She felt a lot more
comfortable without waking up to so
many maids
She looked at her phone and saw that the
photos from the last n|ght‘s party had pushed
her and Eric to fame once again
[Rich ex-couple suspected to be back
together?]
it was attached with a picture of Eric and
Nicole’s kiss at the end of the dance It
was an ingenious shot Even the lighting
and background looked very artistic
Nicole sneered and did not pay attention t

o it. She closed the article and opened
her email
Logan had already sent Nicole’s schedule
to her early in the morning. Nicole
washed up and listened to some finance
news
Last night’s trouble had all been forgotten
after a good sleep and she would not let
Eric Ferguson affect her mood again
Yvette kept bombarding Nicole with calls
because she had just seen the picture
online. She wanted to confirm the truth of
the matter because the picture did not
look photoshopped
Nicole picked up and helplessly explained
what happened. Yvette then breathed a
sigh of relief and started to badmouth the
Fergusons, then suddenly said, “Hey, look!
The article’s been taken down!”

After checking, Nicole saw that it was
gone.

Nicole would not waste her money on
this, so who could it be?
Eric Ferguson?
Yvette laughed loudly on the other side of
the phone. “Look at our group chat! lan
spent money to take it down!’
Nicole clicked into their group chat and
saw a ton of messages,
[lan Carter $1 million PR fees! The
audacity!
[Yvette Quimbey: Carter, didn’t you go to
the party last night? Why isn’t there a
single shot of you?]
(Julie Nixon: If there’s a shot of him,
wonder who’ll pay to take it down…)

(Yvette Quimbey: Hahahahaha!
ſlan Carter Meanies!
Nicole laughed helplessly and sent a
message
[Nicole Stanton: Next time, please
transfer the money to me directly, then I’ll
come out to make a statement]
[lan Carter: *cries in despair* vomits
blood)
Nicole put away her phone and was a lot
happier
At about 7:00 am, Logan drove over to
pick Nicole up and brought breakfast for
her. “I bought this on the way. I don’t
know if it’s to your liking…”
Nicole was not that picky and took it.
Thanks. Let’s go.”

*There’s a meeting at 8:00 am. President
Stanton said that you’re fully in charge of
J&L’s matters and that he won’t ask
questions.”
Nicole knew that Grant was delegating it t
o her as part of her training, so she
nodded and said, “Have you contacted J&
L? We have to do our inspection in
advance.”
“I heard that Ferguson Corporation is
doing their inspection next week, so I
made an appointment for tomorrow
morning.”
“Good job.”
Nicole looked down at the documents.
She did not want to meet with people
from Ferguson Corporation. Although Eric
might not be personally involved in this
project, she still did not want to take the

risk
They talked on the way to the office
about work matters. Nicole was relieved
that Grant was willing to give her
someone as capable as Logan.
As soon as they arrived at the office, the
receptionist came over holding a huge
bouquet and looked at her with a smile.”
Vice President Nicole, someone sent you
flowers.”
Nicole frowned slightly and glanced at
the card on it.
[Dearest Nicole,
I’ll love you for ten thousand years <3
Yours truly
lan Carter]
Nicole did an eye-flip in her heart and said
to the receptionist, “Throw it away for me,

thanks.”
After taking two steps, Nicole stopped in
her tracks and looked back. “If there are
any more flower deliveries in the future,
just reject them.”
She did not want to give lan the slightest
hope and wanted to nip his little spark in
the bud.
“Yes, ma’am.” The receptionist looked
regretful. ‘These flowers are so pretty
but they’re about to be thrown into the
trash can…
The meeting began on time at 8:00 am
When Nicole went into the conference
room, everyone had already arrived.
Nicole sat on the main seat and looked at
the people in the room. “Our cooperation
with J&L Corporation has already begun.
Now, we’ll need to form a project team to

follow up with the tasks. Logan will send
you all a list later.”
Everyone knew that this cooperation with
J&L Corporation was in a brand new field.
Getting involved in this project would
likely catapult them to success, so
everyone was very eager.
After the meeting, Samantha Lindt camet
o Nicole
“Vice President Nicole, why am I not on
the list?”
“How can I miss such a good opportunity t
o reap benefits in this important core
project?
Nicole looked up from her desk and
raised her eyebrows. “If every employee
who wasn’t on the list came to ask me
this question, thousands of people would
come knocking on my door. How do you

think I should answer?”
