Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 12 That Weirdo Is Gardner Corporation’s President!

The next morning, Nicole spruced herself up before changing into black formal wear. She had a great curvaceous figure, and her tight-fitting suit hugged her voluptuous curves in all the right places, making her look mature and somewhat businesslike from a distance. She waited for Hayden to get up. After they had breakfast together, she told him to stay home and be good; only after that did she leave home in a hurry.

Unbeknownst to her, however, as soon as she left home, Hayden took out his cell phone and dialed Colton’s phone number…

On the top floor of a tall building, a man dressed in a black suit was sitting in a brightly lit office, giving off frosty vibes with a hint of restlessness in his narrow eyes. Tapping his cold and pale finger on the table, he said in a voice as chilly as the piercing cold wind of winter, “Is this how you guys are doing your job?”

Queenie, huh… Colton pressed his thin lips together before waving his hand. “Ignore her decisions from now on. Just throw this batch of substandard materials away and reorder the materials.”

Upon hearing Colton’s words, everyone finally sighed with relief. It’s fine as long as he doesn’t blame it on us, they thought. Now that Colton had given the word, they replied, “Roger that, President Colton,” in relief. Then, they left right away, fearing that he would go back on it.
