Chapter 2090
Nicole paused for a moment before turning to look at Mr. Harmon and nodding politely, "Everyone's time is
precious, so why don't we start?"
Just like that, Nicole had made it clear that she was the target of all that harassment and nonsense instead of the
one who had caused it.
"Alright, let's begin.' Mr. Harmon nodded in satisfaction. "It's an honor to have you coming here in person."
James' face suddenly turned dark, and he could not help but grit his teeth. 'This girl is not easy to deal with.'
Raine was also anxious when she heard Mr. Harmon speaking up. It was only recently that Raine had joined the
Riddle Corporation. She had wanted to torpedo Mr. Harmon and Nicole's plan, not thinking it would fail. Her face

"Mr. Harmon, I think we should carefully assess what we've discussed earlier. After all..." Raine said, feeling terribly
anxious, and was on the verge of exposing herself for luring Mr. Harmon here to meet her and James before Nicole.
Mr. Harmon interrupted Raine, his face instantly scrunching up into a sour grimace, and in a cold voice, he said,
"Please be careful of your words, Miss Riddle. It was your presence today that disrupted our meeting. I think you
can go."
'This brainless woman had just promised me huge benefits without even thinking it through. It would greatly be
beneficial for me, but no way would I consider having this business deal with anyone other than with Nicole. After
all, the nature of deals like this are extremely complicated,' he thought.
Raine had not expected that Mr. Harmon would turn her impressive business proposition down, and just like that,
she was handicapped in front of Nicole.
"Mr. Harmon, no. Please listen to what I have to say... Just now, we..." Raine said, eagerly wanting to persuade Mr.
Harmon but James stopped her just in time before she could further embarrass herself.
James turned to look at Mr. Harmon politely. "Mr. Harmon, if you could please excuse us."
Then, after he had spoken, he turned to look at Nicole. "We were the ones who had interrupted you, Nicole, so we'll
leave first."
James forcefully dragged Raine away, with Nicole squinting her eyes as she watched the figures of James and Raine
slowly recede from view.
'For someone who's so addle-brained, she certainly has found a very thoughtful husband,' Nicole thought.
Nicole noted how well James was at apologizing after Raine had created a scene. 'He must've bitten a bullet when
he dragged her away with us.'
"Miss Riddle, let us continue." Mr. Harmon's voice pulled Nicole out from her thoughts.

Nicole then snapped back to reality, after which she proceeded to discuss the business deal with Mr. Harmon.
Outside, Raine was fuming and was lashing out at James." Why did you drag me out here? It's him who didn't keep
his word and went back on our agreement!"
'If it wasn't for Nicole's stupid appearance, he would have not wavered! He would have agreed to work with us!' she
thought.
"I know it's his fault for going back on his word, but we can't expose him like that. We must still leave a good
impression since he still owes us a favor. It might be beneficial for us the next time we see him. We can utilize him
for other projects in the future, just not this one," James earnestly persuaded.
"I can't control my anger when I see that b*tch Nicole being so cocky." Raine gritted her teeth.
"You can't defeat an enemy easily overnight. You just joined the company so it's understandable. Get yourself
familiarized with the company first. We can't afford to make more enemies. We must get them on our side first,"
James continued in an attempt to talk some sense into his wife.
