Chapter 308 Need an Office
“Let’s take a stroll over to President Gardner’s office,” Nicole said before she started leading the way. Whitney’s
eyes lit up—she had nearly forgotten how Nicole and Colton had some history together. “Do you have any ideas,
Nicole?” Whitney hurried after the other woman.
“Mrs. Gardner wanted me to be Gardner Apparel’s CEO previously, but I rejected her offer. However, I believe it’s
now pretty easy for me to request a position in Gardner Corporation,” Nicole uttered with a smile. Whitney seemed
to understand what Nicole meant as she hastily nodded while cheering. “I knew you’d come up with a plan, Nicole!”
She stuck closely behind Nicole as they headed to the top floor.

as he greeted her politely before letting her in. Colton was seated at his desk in the office, and he seemed to be
thinking about something as he stared at his computer. When he saw Nicole walking in, he shifted his gaze toward
her.
“Nicole,” he spoke gently while giving her a sincere smile. She strode over to his table while maintaining eye
contact with him. “I got chased out by your staff members from the design department. What do you think I should
do now?” she asked with a smile.
“What?” A confused look surfaced on Colton’s face when he heard what she said. Nicole explained herself in a
leisurely tone when she saw Colton’s cluelessness. “F&M Apparel and Gardner Corporation are working together,
but I’m no longer part of F&M Apparel, so they sent a new staff member over. Since there’s a person to take over
my job, they decided to chase me out of the office,” she uttered.
Colton chuckled when he sensed the anger in her tone. “Are you unhappy because of that?” he asked.
“I wouldn’t dare to be angry. I obeyed their orders and left the office—I’m here to bid goodbye now, President
Gardner.” Nicole continued to smile—she didn’t sound angry, nor did she sound like she was there to snitch on
someone else. Colton could tell that Nicole had shown up because she wanted to express some of her annoyance
to him, but he suppressed his laughter as he addressed her statement. “So, what’s your plan from now on, Miss
Anderson?”
Nicole raised her chin a little in confidence before she responded. Previously, she had noticed that the room beside
Colton’s office on the same floor had a great view. But, unfortunately, it had been empty for a while now. “Mrs.
Gardner previously mentioned something about hiring me as the CEO of Gardner Apparel,” Nicole said in a careful
tone.
“So, are you prepared to take the job?” Colton raised an eyebrow as he questioned Nicole.
Nicole stuck her bottom lip out as she was deep in thought. She wasn’t an idiot—she knew that she would be tied
down to Gardner Corporation if she took this job. It had taken her a lot of effort to get out of F&M Apparel, and she
wasn’t about to dig herself another grave.
“No. I want to have a partnership with Gardner Apparel using my name. In other words, I’ll be working as the
founder of Ann. Let me know what you think,” Nicole expressed herself confidently while gazing at Colton with
sparkling eyes.
Colton nodded as he stared at the confident woman before his eyes. He couldn’t seem to reject her at all. “Of

work partners, it wouldn’t be too much for me to ask for an office, right?”
“Of course not,” Colton said. Before Nicole could tell him about the room next door, he provided her with the same
offer. “The room next door is empty. What do you think of that spot, Miss Anderson?”
Nicole froze for a moment as she hadn’t expected him to read her mind. That’s good, I guess, she thought while
nodding her head. “Great. I’ll tell the people to move my stuff up from the office downstairs. I’m used to my usual
furniture, so I’d like to continue using them.”
“Sure. You can let Tony know about this, and he’ll get someone to arrange it for you,” Colton followed up gracefully.
It was clear as day that they had great chemistry with each other.
