Chapter 1380 Collaboration

Roxanna from the research center had been in Isaac's office for quite a while now, with no signs of any activity

coming from within.

Although the higher-ups were worldly-wise individuals, they were well aware of the type of person Isaac was.

There was no reason for him to have a woman talking in his office for such an extended period.

Inside the office, Roxanna blinked, taking the teacup. "Thank you, Mr. Quill. Mr. Quill, do you have any thoughts on

our upcoming collaboration? Feel free to share them with me."

She had just felt thirsty, and Isaac had promptly poured tea for her. It was probably his basic etiquette when dealing

with guests. Roxanna made a conscious effort not to let her mind wander and maintained a neutral expression

while looking at Isaac.

"I'll have a basic contract drafted, which will be sent to the research center for your review. Also, I'll engage with

the overseas research center to discuss the collaboration further. If all goes well, our legal department will draft a

formal contract. Of course, the terms of collaboration will be refined and sent to the research center as well. You

don't need to worry, Miss Miller," Isaac said, nodding. He laid out his thoughts; if they were to collaborate, he

wanted to display a committed attitude.

Roxanna's heart leaped. From the looks of it, Isaac was definitely inclined toward collaboration. If that was the case,

the pressure on Nicole and the others from overseas would be considerably reduced.

Roxanna from the research center had been in Isaac's office for quite a while now, with no signs of any activity

coming from within.

Roxanna felt a surge of happiness. Usually, her emotions would show on her face in some way.

"Very well, then, Mr. Quill. I'll go back and await further news from you," Roxanna replied.

Isaac nodded.

After shaking hands with Isaac, Roxanna left his office, documents in hand.

As soon as she stepped out of the office, she realized that almost every pair of eyes in the vicinity was focused on

her.

Wait, have I done something out of the ordinary?

Roxanna pretended not to notice and continued walking forward until she reached the elevator. Only then did she

let out a sigh of relief.

This company is a bit strange. I'm just here to discuss business in the office. Why do I have to endure this scrutiny

from the employees?

She felt she should leave as soon as possible. After all, the preliminary collaboration had been agreed upon. She

needed to hurry back and share this good news with Nicole.

When the elevator doors opened, Roxanna quickly stepped out of Quill Corporation. Unbeknownst to her, as soon as

she left, the employees of Quill Corporation were buzzing with excitement.

Overseas, in Nicole's apartment, Nicole had just finished reading the report on the table, and it was already past

10.00PM.

Glancing at the clock on the wall, she suddenly realized how late it was. Yet, Chloe hadn't returned.

Nicole frowned slightly. While the research center wasn't far from the apartment, this area wasn't entirely free of

potentially dangerous people.

With a sense of worry, Nicole dialed Chloe's phone number, but there was no response, only a prolonged ringing or

a busy tone.

Oh, no.

An unsettling feeling gnawed at Nicole's heart. She had considered all the worst possibilities. Being in a foreign

country, they weren't familiar with the ins and outs of the local practices. If something were to happen...

Nicole felt a sense of urgency. She didn't have time to notify anyone. Grabbing her phone and throwing on a coat,

she rushed out of her apartment.

It was already autumn, and the weather was cooling down. At the moment, it was nighttime, and as soon as Nicole

stepped out, she could feel a chill seeping through her clothes.

She tightened her coat and realized she needed to prepare some winter clothing soon. Her gaze swept around,

searching for Chloe, but she didn't see Chloe's familiar figure.

Thankfully, Nicole was proficient in the local language, making communication with the locals in Florend simple and

without issues.

People around her were already familiar with them; after all, they were all Hofstead Corporation employees. When

they saw Nicole, they greeted her warmly.

Nicole took the opportunity to inquire about Chloe's whereabouts, but no one had seen her.

She didn't know what to do. She aimlessly searched around, feeling lost and uncertain.
