Chapter 128 I Call the Shots

“Molly likes you a lot, so she must’ve

uploaded your information into Tigger’s

brain, hence this reaction. By the way, she’s

also in J&L’s research team, so you’ll. be able

to meet her in a while.”

Maverick nonchalantly tossed Tigger to

Nicole, who carefully caught it.

“rigger, let’s go see Molly!”

“I want The Great God to hold me…” Tigger

struggled in Nicole’s arms and asked

aggrievedly.

Nicole could never refuse any of its

requests, so she caught up to Maverick. ”

Second Brother…”

Maverick was used to seeing such AI robots

and was clearly not as obsessed as Nicole

because he did not have much emotion to

things he could manufacture. For him, it

was just a machine.

When they arrived at J&L’s lab, Tigger

immediately became the crowd’s focus.

“Little Traitor, did you miss us?”

Tigger held his head high and gave a

haughty grunt. “Who are you people?”

The crowd was speechless.

After that, someone took Tigger to Molly

Stewart, Gerard Lichman then led their

group of seven to the predetermined

location.

On the way there, Gerard looked back at

Maverick from time to time and said, “This

gentleman looks a bit familiar…”

Before Nicole had a chance to introduce

him, Maverick spoke, “My name is Sunner. I

don’t know you.”

Gerard nodded and raised his eyebrows. He

did not seem offended by that and said, “Is

he a recent graduate? Never mind, he must

be good since you brought him.”

Nicole did not take the initiative to mention

that she wanted to send Maverick to the

core R&D team. She was not interested in

io their trade secrets, but as long as she could

grasp the latest developments, she had

Therefore, Maverick’s identity need not be

exposed.

As soon as she got out of the car, Nicole saw

a group of people walking towards them.

Eric Ferguson looked cold and noble as he

led a group of seven or eight people.

Gerard stepped forward and said, “It’s a

coincidence that the three parties in charge

of this project are the three of us bosses!

Mr. Ferguson, it’s rare that you’re personally

leading your team this time.”

As soon as she heard this, Nicole was

irritated.

However, this was business, so she had to

look at the big picture.

Eric’s gaze faintly swept over Nicole and

landed on Gerard. I’ve seen the location.

make my own arrangements for other

necessities. Since everyone’s here, let’s

begin.a

Nicole went in with no intention of greeting

hhn.

Eric glanced to the side and watched her

departing back meaningfully.

Gerard went up and patted Eric’s shoulder,

smiling playfully.

*Don’t look. She’s now President Nicole and

is more unlikely to look back. You, on the

other hand… Are you starting to regret it?’

Eric’s cold gaze swept over Gerard. His tone

was stern as he said, “Mind your own

business!”

Gerard laughed and shook his head. “Do you

dare to say that your personal involvement

in this project is not because of her?”

At first, Gerard did not think that the two

exes would get back together, but since that

day when Eric asked him to invite Nicole

out for a meal in his stead, he sensed that

something was wrong.

Afterward, he felt that his thought was a bit

outrageous. Why would Eric Ferguson go

back to an ex?

Gerard then dismissed this idea.

However, seeing Eric here at this moment

made him doubtful again.

The two men walked side by side. Eric

frowned slightly and asked, “Do you have

the list of people who are representing

Stanton Corporation?”

“Yup…”

Gerard sent it to Eric on his phone. This

information was not confidential anyway.

“Sunner? Do you know who this is?”

Gerard casually replied, “A fresh grad, I

guess.”

Eric hooked his lips in silence and did not

speak again.

`Nicole is really capable to get a national-

level expert to participate in a business

project, and so easily at that! How

unexpected!’ Eric thought.

Eric had also intended to poach Maverick to

participate in this project. With Maverick

involved, this project was a sure win!

He thought, ‘I guess it’s a coincidence…’

Gerard found it strange that Eric Ferguson

would pay attention to a student.

When they got to the conference room, Eric

saw Nicole and Sunner leaning closely

together while talking, which made him

frown,

His heart also felt extremely uncomfortable.

Eric’s eyebrows had a hint of annoyance as

he went in with a gloomy face. He walked in

big strides and sat down opposite Nicole.

Seeing this, Gerard immediately understood.

Gerard sat down on the main seat and

paused for a moment.

“On behalf of J&L. Corporation, I’d like to

officially welcome the arrival of our two

partners. With regards to this research

project, Ferguson Corporation has already

sent their people to participate in the follow-

up works. Ms. Stanton, who do you plan to

have to represent your side?”

Nicole smiled and looked at Maverick, who

was next to her.

“Sunner, leave this to you.”

Nicole gently grabbed Maverick’s sleeve,

which was a little habit of hers.

Maverick then patted the back of her hand

with familiarity.

Eric noticed their actions, so his brow

furrowed even deeper.

Gerard nodded. “Okay, he can get

acquainted with Molly Stewart in a

moment.”

Eric suddenly questioned their decision in a

cold voice. “Not everyone is qualified to

participate in this.”

Nicole lifted her eyelids insouciantly. “I call

the shots here.”
