Chapter 379 To Beg Nicole
As Colton listened to them talk, he wasn’t surprised in the least. He raised an eyebrow and smiled as he said, “You
were the ones who were in a rush to chase Nicole out, but now that something has happened and gotten you guys
into trouble, she’s already gone, so the company can only shoulder the responsibility.”
When they heard that they would be taking responsibility, the directors panicked. Gardner Apparel had always been
insignificant and never earned much profit, so when they finally released Ann this year, they could finally earn
considerable gains.
However, they were now being told that they couldn’t earn money this year, and they even had to lose some.
Naturally, the board of directors was reluctant to comply.

should take responsibility, then let it be Nicole!”
When Colton heard how they were planning to shrug off the responsibility, he wasn’t surprised at all. This bunch of
directors never did anything proper, and they were only adept at pushing the blame on someone else.
Colton rested his hand on the table and knocked quietly on it, smiling as he said calmly, “Since that’s what you
think, you should go get Nicole to shoulder the responsibility.”
They probably couldn’t resolve the matter with Aimee International without Nicole’s help.
This group of money-minded people wouldn’t allow a single cent of theirs to be lost, after all.
“You are the president, so shouldn’t you be the one to step forward during times like this?”

The directors couldn’t humble themselves since they had insistently chased Nicole out some time ago. Now that
they had to beg her pitifully, they had too much pride for this.
“I don’t mind losing some money; after all, the single thing I own the most is money. I can bear it no matter how
much the compensation will be,” Colton said slowly, sending a lazy gaze at them. “Even if the compensation costs
the entire Gardner Corporation, I can still live comfortably. However, it’s a different story for you.”
Colton’s words enraged the directors greatly. How shameless could he be?!
However, they had no other choice. Aimee International had provided them with two choices—either Nicole came
forward to provide an explanation, or they would take this to court right away.
But now they had chased Nicole out, they were reluctant to start a negotiation on behalf of Gardner Corporation.
“President Gardner.” The directors’ stance switched again. “If this matter cannot be resolved, the shares we’re
holding now won’t be of much use either. We’ll have to throw them all away when things come down to it.”
They intended to threaten Colton by this. After all, Gardner Apparel was only a step away from becoming the
largest company in the local scene. If something happened right now, it would be difficult to take the throne.
Meanwhile, Colton was emotionless when faced with their threat. “Sure, I can buy all the shares you cast away.”
“You—”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen the directors heard Colton’s words, their expressions changed immediately. They knew what Colton was
hinting at; he was saying that he would render them powerless by getting hold of all the equity.
Colton wasn’t so bored that he would keep wasting time with them. He stood up and said coldly, “If you want to
solve this problem, go to Nicole yourself. If not, get ready to throw all the shares away.”
With that, he turned around and left.
The board of directors never thought that they were digging their own graves in the end!
They thought that as long as Nicole was fired, they would be able to save themselves and let Aimee International
seek Nicole out. However, they never thought that Aimee International would sue Gardner Apparel right away.
The terms they had given were to have Nicole come forth and hold a negotiation talk with them, or they would take
it to court right away.
If this incident ended up getting taken to court, Gardner Apparel’s profit would be in shambles. No matter what,
they couldn’t let this happen.
After thinking for a long while, there was only one option left, which was to see Nicole and beg her for mercy. By
then, she could step up and shoulder the responsibility. No matter how this incident developed, as long as Nicole
was there to bear the burden, everything would be fine.
