Chapter 380 The Past
At home, Nicole spent time with Hayden to her heart’s content for a few days.
This was Nicole’s first time realizing how understanding and smart her son was.
When she was swamped with tasks before this, even though she went home right after work, she rarely spent so
much time with her son without having to think about her job or anything else.
She was the Chief Designer at F&M Apparel back then. Even when she took days off and stayed at home, she would
still receive countless calls and never-ending matters to attend to, as well as drafts and designs to draw that never
seemed to run out.
Now that she had left Gardner Corporation, she could relax her entire body and mind. It was then that Nicole
realized how wonderful her son was.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMeanwhile, Whitney had spent these few days at Gardner Corporation. If she found something, she would return at
night to tell Nicole about it.
As Whitney ate her dinner at night, she seemed to have suddenly remembered something as she put down her
utensils. She stared right at Nicole as she said, “Miss Nicole, there was a directors’ meeting today again. It’s about
the matter with Aimee International. They heard that Gardner Corporation fired you, and they suggested that either
you talk with them, or they’d sue the company right away.”
When Nicole heard this news, she wasn’t surprised in the slightest. After all, she knew what the people behind
Aimee International were trying to do.
They were just bored and wanted to find something fun to do.
“I got it,” Nicole replied calmly without a hint of shock.
When Whitney saw how calm Nicole behaved, she was a little puzzled. “Miss Nicole, if this goes on, Gardner
Corporation will definitely ask you to go back, and you’ll only turn into their shield.”

Nicole pursed her lips and chuckled, looking up at Whitney as she said, “Say, now that I’ve left Gardner Corporation,
wouldn’t they have to give me their utmost respect when they ask me to come back?”
“Do you intend to go back to Gardner Corporation?” asked Whitney with a frown.
Nicole didn’t reply. Instead, she said simply, “We’ll talk about that later, but very soon, that bunch of people will be
coming to me.”
There was proof at Aimee International, after all. If no one stepped forward and took responsibility, then Gardner
Corporation would definitely take a huge hit.
Before this, they wanted to fire her to resolve the situation because the first summons only targeted her as an
individual. After that, when she left Gardner Corporation, Aimee International went ahead and changed the
defendant to Gardner Corporation.
With them playing tricks like that, Gardner Corporation couldn’t escape even if they wanted to.
When Whitney saw Nicole’s confident attitude, she was about to say something, but she stopped and swallowed her
words back.
Nicole knew what Whitney was going to say, so she smiled at the woman and comforted her by saying, “Don’t
worry. When have you ever seen me at a disadvantage?”
Whitney lowered her gaze and kept silent.

As such, when Whitney saw Nicole’s behavior, she thought that the latter was only finding excuses to comfort her.
She felt a little anxious inside.
She had thought about asking Zachary, but now, he was struggling to even protect himself at F&M Apparel. Even
though he would definitely lend a helping hand when it came to Nicole, it was simply too much trouble.
After more thinking and consideration, she could only ask for help from Douglas Lane, the man she had betrayed
three years ago.
At that thought, Whitney couldn’t help the flash of sorrow that flitted across the depths of her eyes.
She didn’t want to do it. She had never intended for things to turn out like that, but she had no choice!
At that time, the Campbell Family ran a furniture business overseas, and they advanced so much that they almost
became the largest business in that region.
Meanwhile, the Lane Family was a veteran in that area. Whitney got to know Douglas at school, and they weren’t
aware of each other’s identities then.
At some point, her father found out that she was dating Douglas, and he knew that Douglas was the heir of the
Lane Family.
He then threatened Whitney to betray Douglas, holding both her mother and his own lives at stake, making her
push Douglas into the pits of hell.
