Chapter 30 Set a Trap

Early morning.

Nicole opened her eyes in the warm

morning light. It felt so cozy and mellow

that she curled her lips into a sweet

smile. Someone knocked on the door

right on time. A maid asked in a soft

voice, “Miss, are you awake?”

Hearing this, Nicole answered in a lazy

voice, “Mm…come in.”

Last night, Grant’s driver brought her to

the Stanton mansion.

Two maids pushed in a huge clothing

rack and spoke respectfully, “Miss, these

are the clothes prepared especially for

you. Master and Eldest Young Master are

waiting for you in the dining hall.“

Nicole was slightly shocked. ‘Dad is so

extra…l bet he wanted to buy out all my

favorite brands so that I’m the only one

who can wear them…’

There were several pieces of the same

style in different colors. Although there

was no logo, Nicole could tell from the

familiar workmanship and fabric that

these were from Prada’s private

collection. Some of them were this

season’s latest limited edition pieces, so

they were invaluable.

She certainly had to adapt to this kind of

luxury lifestyle again. “Alright, you guys

may leave.”

Nicole got out of bed to freshen up, then

randomly picked a little black dress that

was chic and tasteful and paired it with a

white blazer before she walked out of her

room.

lnside the dining hall, Floyd and Grant

Stanton were sitting at the dining table

eating breakfast with effortless grace

When Floyd saw his daughter, he smiled

with squinted eyes. “My baby’s finally

awake!”

Grant turned to look at Nicole and smiled

with his eyes.

“l heard that Keith Ludwig ran out of

Tattle Bar butt naked last night. Even

though he covered his face, he was still

recognized.

Old Master Ludwig dragged

him back home to punish him early this

morning. The Ludwigs are now busy

dealing with the scandal online and their

stock almost fell to its limit down. My

little sister is really capable!”

Nicole helplessly shrugged her shoulders

and walked over to sit down. “He was the

one who provoked me first.”

“Serves him right! What are the Ludwigs

compared to my baby? Do whatever you

want, Princess.” Floyd Stanton doted on

Nicole and gave her a bowl of oatmeal.

After taking a few rushed bites of

breakfast, Nicole took Grant’s car to the

office.

When Nicole arrived at her office, Logan

was standing at the door waiting for her.

“Vice President, Samantha Lindt came

here early in the morning. She’s now

waiting for you in your office.”

Nicole nodded. “ls there any news from J

&L?”

“l’ve already contacted the President of J

&L Corporation, Gerard Lichman. He

proposed to have a talk in person over

dinner.”

‘Alright, set up an appointment then.’

“Yes, Vice President.”

When Nicole pushed the door open, she

saw that Samantha was spinning

leisurely in her chair, seemingly enjoying

herself. For a moment, the atmosphere in

the office w. s a little awkward.

Samantha’s expression changed when

she saw Nicole.

She hurriedly stood up

and looked at Logan reproachfully. “Why

didn’t you inform me that the Vice

President is here?”

Nicole smiled insouciantly and walked

over. “Ms. Lindt, since you like this chair s

0 much, it’s yours. Logan, send it to Ms.

Lindt’s office later.”

‘Yes, ma’am.”

“Vice President Nicole, I don’t mean

anything else. There’s no need to give me

this chair.’

Nicole sat on one end of the sofa. Her

eyes were cold. “I’m a germaphobe, so I

won’t sit on a chair that someone else

has sat on.”

Samantha was rebuffed, so she glared

fiercely at Nicole. She secretly cursed

Nicole in her heart and thought. ‘She slept

her way into this position, so what is she so proud of?’

“Ms. Lindt, why did you come in here?”

Nicole glanced at her.

Samantha walked over with a document

and threw it in front of Nicole.

‘Here, don’t say that l didn’t remind you.

There are a lot of people eyeing this

Pfqect from FH Corporation. Their

chairman proposed dinner tonight to talk

over this cooperation. Vice President

Nicole, you ought to grasp this

opportunity.”

Nicole flipped through two pages of the

document and closed the file without

another glance. She did not believe that

Samantha would be so kind as to share

such a big slice of cake with her.

However, since Samantha was so

proactive, Nicole felt that it would be a

waste if she did not play along with her

She smiled.

“Ms. Lindt, will you be

present this evening?“

“Of course, I’ll introduce you both.”

“Great, then I’ll be there on time.”

Nicole handed the document to Logan.

Raise this by 30%.‘

Logan took it over without hesitation.

Okay, I’ll get it done.“

At this moment, Yvette barged in, holding

a huge bouquet that blocked her line of

sight.

“Nikki, quick! I’m exhausted!”

Nicole was a little surprised. “What’s

this?”

“Someone is pursuing you, of course…s0

he sent you flowers…” Yvette raised her

eyebrows and smiled suggestively.
