Days passed by quietly and in no time, five days had passed since Nicole and Aston last saw each other.
Nicole was sitting in her office talking with Jerome on the phone.
"No, Jerome. I cannot rush things. After what happened last time, the devil has become more doubtful of me. If I go to the orphanage now, the risk is too huge. This is not a thing where I'm allowed to fail." She explained to the man.
The last time she defied her step-mother, she almost suffered severely and her fever was the thing that saved her. She needs to lie low for now.
"Okay. You too." She put down her phone and heavily sighed. Rushing was too much because for her, everything was a matter of life and death!
After a few seconds, her secretary Julia Cha entered her office room. "Chairwoman, it's time for your meeting with the personnel of the clothing brand." The secretary informed her.
