Chapter 2727

“Sure. Ask them to swing by whenever they’re available.” Nicole nodded.

After all, it was not an urgent matter. They could settle it whenever they had the time for it.

“Alright.” Lulu turned around and went on to exit the office.

Unexpectedly, Sean and Steve were already standing by the door when Lulu was about to leave.

“We’re quite free. Why don’t we discuss it now?” Steve shrugged when he saw the look of surprise on her face.

Nicole then passed the document to the boys and said, “You guys may take a look at this first.”

After they had read the document, the two men exchanged looks.

Then, Steve said, “This does seem like a good project, but I have just taken on another project that’s similar to this one.”

“At the moment, I’m quite busy with my own plans as well,” Sean added.

“I’m also hesitant about this. Why don’t we pass it to Ellar?” Nicole asked.

She could tell that Sean and Steve were not really interested in this project. In fact, it would be better for them to let Ellar have it. BayCorp also seemed to be doing well for itself, so all Ellar needed was a bigger opportunity to make things better.

“That’s a good idea.” Sean and Steve agreed in unison, as everyone would be happy if Ellar took it.

“Since you guys are not against the idea, we’ll just proceed with this arrangement then.”

After she had spoken, she handed the document over to Lulu, “Ask the secretary to fax this document to Ellar.”

“Got it.” Lulu grabbed the document and went out of the office.

After that, Sean and Steve glanced at Nicole and said,” Lawrence seems to be behaving rather differently this time. You must be careful.”

Knowing that the two of them were worried about her, Nicole nodded.

“Yeah, I’ll be careful of him.”

“Everett is still in Lawrence’s hands. Chloe is now in severe legal trouble, and with Uncle Damien’s situation to top it off, I have a feeling that all these things are connected.

Anyways, just keep your wits about you,” Steve advised.

After giving them a smile, Nicole replied, “Don’t worry. I won’t make any rash decisions.”

“We trust you, but you must exercise extreme caution when it comes to certain things. After all, there are too many people with malicious intentions out there,”

Sean echoed out of worry.

It had very little to do with how capable Nicole was of protecting herself, and more to do with how ruthless her enemies were in getting what they wanted.

“Okay.” Nicole assured. “I know that you guys are worried about me, but you can take it easy. I know what needs to be done.”

“Alright then.”

Sean and Steve then reminded Nicole about a few more things before they left her office.

After a short while, Lulu returned and said, “It has been delivered. Ellar should have received it already.”

“Alright, well leave it up to him.”

Even though it was good news that Ellar had received it, whatever he did with the proposal would be entirely up to him.

Meanwhile, in BayCorp.

Ellar was holding the document from the fax machine as he carefully read through the details, sentence by sentence, and word by word.

“You said that this was sent to us by the head office?” Ellar frowned.

“Yes. It also came with a note, saying that you’ll get to make the final decision on whether you’ll accept it or not. If you need any help, you may contact Lulu,”

the secretary replied.

“Lulu Barrera.” Ellar said, knowing those were most likely Nicole’s instructions.

Then, he nodded and said, “You may leave now.”

“Alright.” The secretary turned around and left his office.

After that, Ellar opened the document once more and perused the information on the document.

However, he was confused.
