Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 443

Chapter 443 Rainy Day

Nicole didn’t have much to do for a few days—she would either be at Gardner Corporation or Julia’s place. The

media companies were fighting to get exclusive information about Richard and Christi’s relationship, especially

since Christi was the Zuniga Family’s only daughter.

She was like the princess of the family. The Jenkins Family really struck gold this time! They got themselves affiliated

with a mighty family, the reporters thought.

Since the Gardner and Jenkins Families were close, the Gardner would undoubtedly benefit if someone from the

Jenkins Family got married to one of the Zunigas. So, Bryan was highly discouraged to hear this news.

If Richard and Christi actually got married, the Zuniga Family was bound to be supportive of the Gardners. With the

Zuniga Family’s help, the Gardner Family would definitely surpass the Kohlberg Family.

More importantly, Queenie was nowhere to be found. Previously, Bryan heard that Queenie had attended

Benedict’s birthday, but he hadn’t seen her since then. That b*tch! Bryan’s face was red with fury.

Queenie had taken so much of his money, and she had just disappeared after that. She even seemed like she was

on the Gardner Family’s side! That ungrateful b*tch! I really made a mistake by caring for someone who doesn’t

understand the concept of gratitude.

The weather was rather gloomy outside, and it began to drizzle. Even though it was summertime, the air turned

rather chilly after it started raining. Nicole was in her office.

Ann from Gardner Corporation’s partnership with Aimee International had been a success. After Nicole told Joanna

off, Joanna was finally acting more decently. She was no longer trying anything that would make Nicole mad.

Since Whitney had gone abroad, Nicole didn’t have anyone around her. So, she suggested that Scarlett be her

assistant. Scarlett was tasked to handle some of the minor tasks.

On that rainy day, Nicole rested her chin on her hand while spinning a pen with her other hand. She fixed her gaze

on the drops of rain stuck onto the large glass panel on her window.

“These are the options for Ann’s physical store, Miss Nicole. President Gardner told me to show you these.”

Scarlett’s voice interrupted Nicole’s thoughts, and Nicole returned to her senses to find many documents in front of

her. She lowered her head and glanced through the options that Colton had provided.

All the stores seemed exclusive, and the rental for the places was extremely high. However, considering how

massive the Gardner Corporation was, the rental probably wouldn’t make a dent in their accounts.

At Scarlett’s mention of Colton, Nicole couldn’t help but recall how he had teased her while they were at his place.

At that thought, Nicole felt herself fuming. She looked at the addresses of the physical stores before throwing her

hands up in the air. “I want them all,” she announced.

Scarlett was shocked by Nicole’s words. “W-What?” S-She wants all these stores? There are at least ten options

here, and the initial plan was to have five physical stores.

When Nicole saw the troubled look on Scarlett’s face, she decided that she didn’t want to make Scarlett’s life too

hard. “You can leave this with me. I’ll speak to President Gardner personally.”

Scarlett nodded before hurrying off without a word. Meanwhile, Nicole stayed in her office for a while more. The

rainy weather made her feel rather down.
