“Carter, this business expansion of yours is quite sudden, huh? Ian leaned into her and whispered.
“I’m just lucky to have you! I didn’t expect to clear it out so quickly…” Otherwise, Ian would have to pay for his big talk out of his own pocket.
The two bigwigs sat in the front. The signing ceremony was simple, solemn, and quick. This time, the main character was Ian because he was the organizer. Naturally, everyone’s attention was focused on him.
Nicole sat next to lan and stole the limelight, as always. Ian and Nicole were surrounded by others for small talk as they talked joyously. The atmosphere was harmonious and relaxed.

“I wanted to come personally to ask when you will be coming back to Imperial Gardens.” In the beginning, she promised that she would stay with him until he was fully recovered. Nicole paused for a moment. The corners of her lips curled up slightly.
