Chapter 862

After the meal, .Harvey chatted with Daniel and the others on the couch for a while, while Nicole sat on
the side, quietly watching TV and not saying another word to Harvey the whole time.

Seeing that it was getting dark, Harvey got up and excused himself.

Gloria looked at Nicole and said, "Go see Harvey out."

Nicole had no choice but to put down the remote control and see Harvey out.

When he came to the doorway, Harvey wanted to talk to her about playing tennis.But Nicole spoke first
before he could.

"Now that the tender is over and Sean is in charge of the follow-up of the project , you can go to his
office and talk to him and don't have to come to the Riddle Mansion anymore." Harvey got the hint and
challenged her.

"What if I don't?"

"Try me." Nicole's eyes turned cold instantly.

Harvey was upset and glanced at Nicole.

"I will let you know I'm better than him."

With that, he left.Nicole returned to the living room, and Gloria pulled Nicole to one side.

"How are you and Harvey getting along?"

"Mom, why do you ask this?” Nicole looked at Gloria in surprise.



"I get the feeling that Harvey treats you differently." Gloria was gauging the change in Nicole’s
expression.

Nicole's face was expressionless as she explained frankly, "Mom, you’re overthinking it; we’re friends.”

“Really?”

With the experience of someone who had been here, Gloria was still a little unconvinced.

“Really.Don't get your head in the clouds."

'Harvey, you're creating trouble for me.’

“It’s been a long time sinceJared last came to our house for dinner.You should care more about him.If
he has time, bring him back for a meal." Gloria cared a lot about the relationship between herand
Jared.

"Okay, I'll bring him back in a few days when he’s not that busy.”

“Well, I’m just worried about you.After all, those girls out there are attracted to Jared like bees to
honey,” Gloria said.

“You think too much.I'm not even worried; what are you worried about?" It was the first time Nicole had
heard such words from Gloria's mouth, and she found it amusing

"What are you laughing at? You are my daughter; of course I have to think about you."

"There are many things in the business world that you still don't understand.But slowly, you will know."
Gloria was worried about her daughter, just like other mothers did.

“I know.Thanks, Mom."



Back upstairs, Nicole took out her phone and thought of calling Jared.

Suddenly, she remembered that these days Jared had only been texting her.She guessed that he must
be busy and always in a meeting.

Otherwise, he would not have just texted her.

‘’'It has been so many days, and Jared is still busy.Could it be that something happened to the
company?' Nicole was a little worried.

She quickly turned on the computer to check the recent status of Johnston Group.

It turned out that the cooperation between Jared and the Turmann family had been doing great, with
good news announced, one after another.

Johnston Group's mechanization business was getting stronger because of Jared's return.

Nicole was less worried after seeing all this.

But when she thought of Jared having accomplished so much, he must be too busy to even have a
proper meal.So, she called Max.

“Hey, Max.Did Jared have a good rest lately?”

“Mr.Johnston has not slept for three days, and he has just returned to the villa to rest."

“"Okay, please turn his phone into silent mode.”
