Chapter 1374
Nicole did not appreciate Zeke's negativity. [Can't you be more optimistic? You'll be fine. Just get it done yourself.]
[Thanks!] Then, Zeke went offline.
Nicole sighed after looking at Zeke's status. "He could've been enjoying his life if he didn't have such a dangerous job.
There are plenty of other things to do if he were just after the thrill..."
"Ms. Riddle, the engineer wants to talk to you about something," said Kelly after entering the office.
"Sure. I'll be right with him." Nicole shut down her computer and left her office.

He walked into Nicole's office but could not see her anywhere. "She's not here."
Harvey went to another room to look for her. He pushed the door open and saw Nicole saying something about the
chip with the engineer.
"Mr. Ellison." Kelly greeted him as soon as she saw him enter.
•Hey."
Nicole then turned around and looked at Harvey. "What brings you here today?"
"The thought of missing you, I suppose," Harvey said shamelessly with a bright smile on his face.

After some time, Nicole returned to her office. "Anything to drink?"
"Do you have coffee?" Harvey asked bluntly.
Nicole picked up the phone and said, "Get Mr. Ellison a cup of coffee."
"So, what's so important that you had to come all the way here to tell me?" Nicole sat on her office chair. She lifted

Nicole leaned back on her chair and thought about it. 'It looks like Joyce can't wait to come after me. I wonder why.
'Could it be that she wants to leave the country as soon as possible...?'

"Again? I can probably do that for just another day. I'm afraid they’ll start suspecting me if I keep stalling." Harvey put on
a cautious look as he
gazed at Nicole.
"Understood. I'll let you know what to do as soon as I figure it out."
Nicole looked at Harvey again as she asked, "Have you heard anything about Martin?"
Harvey felt a spark of jealousy. "Nothing much is happening with him. Why do you suddenly ask that?"
"I'm starting to think that I'm not the only one Joyce is coming after, but Martin too," said Nicole.
"Martin? Didn't they use to work together? Even though he chased the McCarthy family out of the country, he didn't do
anything to hurt them. I heard he only did that because Joyce stole something he was experimenting on."
