Chapter 129 Stupid, Slow, and Untalented

The atmosphere was stagnant for a while.

Fortunately, Eric Ferguson did not pursue it

further. The topic changed to determine the

project’s direction.

The meeting lasted for more than an hour,

and it had started to rain outside.

When everyone went out, they ran into their

cars one after another. Since the steps at the

entrance were on low terrain, a pool of

stagnant rainwater had accumulated there.

Nicole walked out last. She was wearing her

custom-made Manoios that were incredibly

sleek and exquisite, so she hesitantly stood

on the steps_

Stanton Corporation’s Rolls-Royce parked

not far from the steps. The driver could not

get any closer even if he wanted to.

Maverick noticed his sister’s expression.

Since there was only one umbrella left,

Maverick habitually took it and propped it

over Nicole’s head. “Shall we?”

Nicole lowered her head and pointed her

toes as she said with regret, “The diamonds

on these shoes will fall off if they get wet…”

Maverick heard this and glanced at her. He

saw that she was wearing a short skirt

today that was not suitable for being carried

because picking her up would risk exposing

her.

Thus, he took off his bespoke suit jacket and

threw it on the ground in front of her. He

propped the umbrella on top of her head,

went two steps down, and held out his hand

as he said with extreme patience, “Now it

won’t get wet. Let’s go.’

Nicole sighed and thought she could only

make do with this.

She placed her hand on Maverick’s palm,

stepped on his expensive jacket, and got

into the car.

The driver, who saw this scene, secretly

grieved for himself and thought, Please don’

t fire me because of my driving skills..,’

Two other people saw this scene as well.

Gerard Lichman shook his head,

‘Now I’ve finally witnessed how nitpicky a

princess could be! She might even care if

the air around her isn’t sweet enough, yet

you treated her like dirt!”

Eric stared at the car with sunken eyes and

gave him a cold look.

He secretly clenched his teeth as he knew

about Maverick’s true identity.

Even international big shots were humble in that

man’s presence and took the initiative to

reach out to him, yet he was being so servile

to Nicole!

The relationship between these two seemed

to have exceeded the boundary of regular

friends.

Were they too close?

“Nikki!”

A shout of surprise came from the side as

Molly Stewart waved at Nicole from a short

distance away. she was holding Tigger as

she ran towards Nicole with great

enthusiasm.

Nicole was stunned and smiled in response.

She then whispered to Maverick, “She’s

Molly Stewart.”

Maverick frowned. By then, Molly had

already run to them and was just about to

hug Nicole when she noticed Maverick, who

was standing in arm’s reach.

She was stupefied for a moment before she

shouted in shock, “Holy sh*t! The Great God!”

Without another word, Molly chucked

Tigger aside and hugged Maverick, which

made Maverick’s face turn white from

shock.

Maverick felt shy and embarrassed as he

pried this woman off his body. He sounded

upset as he said, “Please have some self-

respect.” III

How could Molly care for self-respect when

she saw her idol?

Molly could not control her excitement and

was not offended from being pushed away.

She tilted her head to look at the tall and

lean Greek god of a man.

“I’m Molly Stewart! I’ve sent you a friend

request and you’ve given me plenty of

advice!”

At this time, Molly thought it was important

to close the distance between them.

Maverick gave her a slightly disdainful look.

“I know. You’re stupid, slow, and untalented.

A simple calculation can make you spin in

circles…”

Seeing that Molly’s excitement a few

seconds ago gradually morphed into

distress, Nicole hurriedly tugged on

Maverick’s sleeve and shook her head.

Maverick paused, then looked at Tigger who

was crawling on the ground. His tone

changed.

“But… Tigger is well-designed and made of a

solid material.”

Molly looked up at Maverick and smiled.

Her sadness earlier seemed to have

vanished.”Ws just a stupid tiger. I can still make it

smarter!”

Tigger kicked Molly with Its furry paw in

protest. “You’re the stupid tiger! Your whole

family is stupid!”

‘ Molly gave Tigger a threatening look and

turned to Nicole and Maverick.

You guys really know each other! Nikki is

The Great God your friend?”

Nicole smiled and nodded, then tugged on

Maverick’s arm.

“Molly’s my friend, so you need to be nicer

to her. Don’t treat her the same way as you

treat your PhD students.”

Maverick was speechless. He looked away

and let out a light grunt.

Molly rubbed her hands in surprise and

winked at Nicole.

Nicole added, “He’ll be joining this project as

an external consultant. Molly, please take

care of him during this time_ ik

Molly stared at her in surprise. “HuhT

The Great God is gonna listen to my

command?!’ Molly thought.

Seeing Molly’s trembling body, Nicole

laughed and whispered in her ear. “His

identity should be kept secret for now.”

Molly nodded in understanding and was

still somewhat dumbfounded.

After saying their goodbyes, Nicole turned

around and got into the car.

The hem of her skirt accidentally got stuck in the door slit,

so Nicole let out a cry of surprise.

Maverick silently threw away the umbrella,

knelt on one knee to carefully unhook Nicole

‘s skirt, then turned to see the shocked and

dumbfounded Molly.

His voice was extremely clear and cold as

he said, “Please help me to throw away the

trash. Thank you.”

Without waiting for Molly to answer,

Maverick got into the car and closed the

door. Their car then disappeared into the

rain.

Tigger, who was still playing in a pool of

water on the side, was left abandoned and

confused_

haven’t gotten into the car yet…’
