When Jacob saw that Nicole was fine, he really wanted to burrow through the lens.
Everyone knew that since Grant came to Sand City, Grant’s style and methods were completely different from Nicole’s.
When Nicole got angry, it was just pure anger.
When she scolded someone severely, she would probably not stay angry for long.
It was when she hid a dagger in her smile that meant she was truly angry.
However, as long as Jacob did not cross the line, Nicole would generally turn a blind eye.
As for Grant, his thunderous style could torture a person to death. Just one look from Grant could make someone too scared to say anything.
There were no second chances.
After just a few days, Jacob had a feeling that he would not be able to continue living for long.
Nicole smiled and blinked at the screen.
“Mr. Cook, did you dye your hair? Why is it all white now?” At that mention, Jacob wanted to shave his hair bald.
Since Nicole’s accident, Jacob did not even dare to get a full night’s sleep out of trepidation.
After Grant’s arrival, Jacob’s nerves became even more frayed.
If anything happened to the heiress of Stanton Corporation in Sand City, Jacob would not get the chance to live.
Jacob had lived for more than half a century and was about to retire, but he was very likely going to lose his job.
Grant glanced at Jacob coldly, and Jacob immediately composed his expression and looked at the camera in trepidation.
“I didn’t dye my hair, Ms. Stanton. You should take a good rest. The project team staff are all very concerned about your health. They all hope that you’ll take good care of yourself!”
Nicole nodded with a smile.
“Okay, thank you for you guys’ concern.”
Grant interrupted them coldly. “Enough. Stop talking nonsense and say something useful.”
Nicole and Jacob were speechless.
To the side, Floyd, who was pretending to be invisible, could only pretend that he did not hear anything.
Nicole composed herself and paused. “Big Brother, what did the reporter say?”
Grant nodded. “Luca got the reporter’s statement. The boss of the company that Autumn Ferguson is interning in ordered it, but what’s funny is that when the boss mentioned Autumn, he also mentioned the Ferguson family. That’s why the reporter dared to be so bold.”
Nicole frowned, then chuckled.
“So, that reporter thought that it was the Ferguson family that instructed him to frame us? He thought that the Ferguson family would step in to protect him?”
Grant nodded with an expressionless face.
Nicole also suddenly found it ridiculous after hearing it.
If Eric were to find out about this, he might really laugh in exasperation.
“Is the Leonard family involved?”
To the side, the calm Floyd suddenly spoke. Grant pursed his lips, his eyes deep and sharp. “As far as I know, probably not.”
“Oh? Leonard toyed with Lil N, but he’s not going to act as backup for his god-granddaughter?”
Floyd had long since figured out the relationship between Old Master Leonard and Autumn Ferguson.
Grant‘s tone was clear and cold.
“As soon as I arrived in Sand City, Old Master Leonard personally came over to pick me up with a very sincere attitude. He said frankly that he knew nothing about Autumn’s actions. He also expressed his apologies for not helping when Nicole came up to his door before. I think he’s just putting on airs and standing up for Autumn.
Unexpectedly, it caused such an incident…”
Floyd smiled coldly. His eyes were cold and disgusted.
“He can’t put on airs now that you’re there. That old man is really appalling. Someone who has the ability has no reason to hide or feel embarrassed!”
Floyd was really furious. He wanted to hit the table.
He waited to see what thoughts Old Master Leonard had. It was better if Old Master Leonard was involved. That way, Floyd would have a chance to screw him up at one go.
Unexpectedly, Old Master Leonard actually backed down.
