The Reunion After Seven Years

Jared put the files on the table and showed them to Nicole. This project was very important to the Gu Group. If all went well, it would bring a lot of profit to the company.

Nicole's eyes lit up the moment she examined the proposal. She had casually pitched this idea to Kerr before they started dating officially.

It never occurred to her that Kerr had paid attention to what she said, but now her idea was brought to its fullest in this business plan he developed.

"Take this so we can set it in motion." This project bore both Nicole's and Kerr's common ideas. She only hoped it would run smoothly.

Lily was still standing next to Nicole, holding the documents her temporary CEO needed. It didn't take her long to realize which project was the most precious to Nicole and the Gu Group.

Yet Lily hesitated. She knew that her actions would create great trouble, and there would be no way to come back from that.

"Do you have plans tonight?" Nicole asked Lily softly without tearing her attention off the papers she still had on her desk. She wanted to take Lily with her to the business party that night.

Despite Lily not having anything particularly remarkable about her, Nicole still thought she could train her.

Lily shook her head blankly and responded, "No, I have nothing planned. Why do you ask?"

"Well, since you don't have anything else to do, I want you to come with me to a business party tonight. I can present you to some people there that might turn out to be good for your future."

Lily's heart jolted in her chest as she listened to Nicole. Her offer only made her even more hesitant. She never thought that Nicole would be so considerate towards her.

However, Lily was still under Moore's threat and couldn't refuse this invitation. The fact that Nicole truly cared and was helping her only made Lily more uncomfortable with the situation she was in.
