Chapter 886

After missing breakfast, Jared drove Nicole to the venue where the betrothal would be held.

Several waiters were waiting for them outside the entrance of the opulent and magnificent hotel. When they saw Jared‘s car coming, they came forward to greet them.

Jared led Nicole inside; the gilded lobby, the high–style carpeting, and the light–reflecting crystal chandelier looked equally opulent. “What do you think of the atmosphere?” Jared asked as he led her inside.

“Pretty good.”

“Let‘s take a look inside.”

Arriving at the site of the betrothal , it was low–key and luxurious , perfectly in line with Nicole‘s aesthetic taste. She looked around, and her eyes finally fell on Jared.

“You have prepared well. I like it a lot.” Jared looked at her with a smile.

“I‘m glad that you like it. In a few days, we are having our betrothal party here. I hope that day will come sooner rather than later.”

“You can‘t wait?” Nicole asked him snidely.

“Get off me before someone sees us.” Nicole tried to push him away.

“No, it won‘t be. It is just you and me here.”

“That is not good either.” Breaking free of Jared‘s grasp, Nicole came to the side.

“I have seen the hotel. I will go to school if there is nothing else.”

“Okay, I will give you a ride.”

Jared drove Nicole to school.

“I will pick you up tonight.”

“It‘s okay. I can get back on my own.”

“It is better to wait for me,” Jared said and then drove away.

As she walked down the path leading into the school, someone suddenly appeared in front of her.

“Nicole, there‘s a problem with the Aegis Corporation project.”

“Harvey? What are you doing here?” Nicole asked, puzzled.

“Forget about me for now. Let‘s just go find Sean together.” Harvey did not look like he was joking.

“Let‘s go then.”

Sean was sighing impatiently in front of the floor–to ceiling window in Riddle Corporation when suddenly there was a knock on the office door.

“Come in.” Sean looked back at the door.

Nicole and Harvey walked in.

“What brings you guys here?” Sean‘s eyes sparkled with surprise.

“What is going on?” Nicole asked him openly.

“There are some problems with the supplier; they haven‘t delivered the materials. This causes the work to stop,” Sean said.

“The work has stopped?” Harvey did not expect it to have affected work.

Sean looked at him and nodded.

“Any idea why the supplier didn’t deliver the materials?” Nicole asked Sean.

“They said there was a shortage, so the delivery was delayed.” This was the reason given to Sean by the other party. ..

“Shortage?” Nicole‘s mind was racing.

“Immediately send someone to the market to check the price of the materials and the inventory of the various importers,” Nicole instructed Sean.

“Okay, I‘ll get right on it.” Sean made a phone call.

“Send someone to find out if someone is hoarding raw materials.”

It was not so much about shortage, but someone deliberately hoarded the materials.

“Let me know as soon as you have news.” Nicole looked at Sean seriously.
