Chapter 2103

Nicole thought they were attributing too much importance on her when she heard that Dexter was coming over to convey their gratitude. She could not help but laugh.

“Dexter, you don’t have to thank me.”

If they were merely coming over for a visit, Nicole would be happy to have them. However, she would be unable to deal with the pressure if they did show up to personally thank her.

“You don’t have to be so polite to Emma and me. You can treat it as if it’s just a family gathering,”

Dexter said, remaining very adamant.

With that, Nicole had no choice but to accept his demand.” Alright then. I’ll just think of it as a family gathering.”

“Well then, that’s a deal,” Dexter happily agreed.

“Alright. I’ll inform Mom and Dad to prepare for your arrival,” Nicole promised.

Dexter immediately admonished, “There’s no need for that. We’re family, so you don’t have to prepare anything,”

“It’s alright. We’ll be waiting for your arrival,” Nicole said.

“We’ll be on time,” Dexter replied.

After ending the phone call, Nicole shook her head and chuckled, feeling that Dexter was being too polite. However, with the knowledge that Dexter and Emma would come over in mind, Nicole thought of something else. Her eyes automatically darted towards Lulu. “Hey, are you dating Spencer?”

Not expecting Nicole to be so straightforward, Lulu’s cheeks instantly flushed, and in embarrassment, she said, “Let’s not discuss it during work hours.”

Lulu just could not believe how the topic had suddenly shifted towards her relationship with Spencer.

“The work session is done,” Nicole shrugged and said with a beam.

Lulu hugged the documents tightly on her chest and proceeded to weasel her way out. “Em, yes. I’m done reporting the details of the day to you, so I shall go out first.”

With that, Lulu whirled around and skedaddled, causing Nicole to chuckle. ‘Lulu’s shy. Though, by the looks of Spencer and her, they seem to be just fine. Besides, Samuel was the one who mentioned June first, and the two of them didn’t sound like they were having any issues. Perhaps the timing just wasn’t right,’

Putting her mind at ease, Nicole decided to wait for the good news. Perhaps Spencer and Samuel did have their own plans. After perusing the documents on the table, Nicole put her thoughts aside and began working.

Before Nicole knew it, it was already lunch break. So, she left the office to grab a bite with Lulu, bumping into Steve along the way.

“Going out for lunch?” Steve asked while looking at the pair who were ready to go out.

“Yep,” Nicole answered.

“Let’s go together, then. I have something to tell you,” Steve invited.

This piqued Nicole’s interest, who asked, “What’s that, exactly?”

“Let’s talk about it over lunch. It’ll go well with lunch,” Steve explained and entered the elevator car with Nicole and Lulu.

This made Nicole even more curious as she wondered,’ What would go well with lunch? Maybe it’s some good news? I Factoring Steve’s single-minded character, which focused on nothing but the pursuit of money and generation of profits, Nicole guessed that they had secured a major project.

Arriving at the restaurant, they ordered the business lunch set and began their discussion over their meal.

“Steve, you can spill the beans now,” Nicole said.

He had been making Nicole guess throughout the whole journey. Now, it was time for him to reveal the answer.
