Chapter 2118
"Alex." Dexter felt a little annoyed. He could only pretend to be strict and alert Alex. "Don't you see that grandpa
isn't in a good mood? And yet, you're requesting to stay?"
"It was Uncle Dillon and Uncle Damien who angered grandpa, not us." Alex shrugged as if he had not done anything
wrong. He seemed to be questioning why he should leave.
Dexter's face darkened drastically, and he added with an even more stern voice, "Don't speak nonsense."
"Enough. Let's eat," Mr. Riddle Sr. said.
Alex immediately turned happy again. He looked at Nicole blankly. "Nicole, I need your help on a few things."
"What are they?" Nicole was curious. What would Alex want her to teach him?
Alex scratched his head awkwardly. "I've just joined the company, right? But I just graduated not long ago, and I
don't have any experience in management. So-"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe has always admired Nicole's abilities, and he respected her a lot. Therefore, he had set Nicole as his target. He
wanted to work towards becoming at the same level as Nicole.
"I heard you're doing quite well right now." Nicole curled her lips into a smile. She knew that Alex joined Dexter's
company, and his performance was pretty good.
"But I want to do better." Alex seemed to be waiting for something.
"That's true. He had been saying that you're his inspiration to work harder. Actually, the previous time I mentioned
thanking you personally was partly because of Alex as well." Since the conversation had reached this point, Dexter
revealed everything.
It was only then that Nicole finally understood why Dexter insisted on thanking her. Initially, she thought that Dexter
was being very polite. So, this was the actual reason.
"I'm not good at managing a company. Emery's focus is on games, so Alex is my only hope. Coincidentally, he has
an interest in it as well. So, I hope to see if he can improve in this area." After all, Dexter would not have the ability
to teach Alex. So, he wished that Alex could learn from Nicole, and he was more than happy to have that
arrangement.
"I see. It's good that you're self-motivated." Mr. Riddle Sr. nodded happily. He felt comforted that his youngest
grandchild had the heart to join in the company’s management. This was unlike the rest of his grandchildren.
Mr. Riddle Sr.'s gaze scanned across Stanley, Spencer, Samuel, and Emery and these boys subconsciously looked
down. They were pretending as if they had not heard anything. After all, Mr. Riddle Sr's threatening gaze was quite
scary.
They were indeed uninterested in managing the company,
as they only want to do the things they like. Other than that, they think that they were quite successful already, so
naturally they did not want to go home and suffer.
"Dad, it's a good thing that the kids have their own opinions. Let them be." Daniel comforted Mr. Riddle Sr. as he
spoke. Each kid had their own achievements and that was good too.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter all, there was only one company and one Riddle family. It would be better to have this than have everyone
fighting for the company.
It seemed like Mr. Riddle Sr. understood Daniel's words, so he let out a sigh.
"Grandpa, I'm hungry. Let's eat." Noticing her grandfather's sadness and melancholy, Nicole diverted his attention.
"Alright, let's eat." Hearing that Nicole was hungry, Mr. Riddle Sr. immediately ordered the other two families to eat
at the dining room.
During dinner, the men discussed work while Gloria and Emma chatted about family matters. Everyone was having
a satisfying meal.
"Grandpa, I'll take care of the incident. So, you don't have to worry about anything. You don't have to bother about
it as well. If you think it's too boring to stay at home, you could visit the office," Nicole advised Mr. Riddle Sr. in
hopes that he would let go of the matter.
"Alright, I trust you." Mr. Riddle Sr. still valued Nicole a lot. He did not believe that Nicole would do such a thing. And
he also had faith in her that she would handle the incident well.
