Chapter 287 Visiting Old Mr. Benedict
Nicole had officially terminated her contract with F&M Apparel.
Her reason for resignation was due to the rapid development of the domestic clothing industry. She wanted to
return to her home country to further develop the industry and improve the market of the fashion industry.
Because of this, many netizens bought into her reasoning.
In the previous contract between Gardner Corporation and F&M Apparel, Colton had specially signed another
agreement with Nicole due to the establishment of the Ann. Still, the contract did not mention F&M Apparel.
This time, F&M Apparel would not benefit from the Gardner Corporation.
The cooperation between Nicole and Gardner Corporation would continue, and it would take almost two months to
complete the promotion of the entire brand.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFor Nicole’s sake, Zachary had stayed in the country and had begun to take over F&M Apparel.
With the support of Bradley, Pinnacle Group directly invited Nicole to participate in the Golden Brush Competition
under Pinnacle Group, and she naturally agreed without any objections.
This riled Olivia up as she was against it from the start. Regardless, she did not expect that Pinnacle Group would
really cooperate with Nicole. Because of this, Olivia immediately went to look for Mason to get even with him.
Anna knew that Nicole had terminated the cooperative relationship with F&M Apparel and had directly indicated
that as long as she was willing to stay in Gardner Apparel, Nicole could be the executive president of Gardner
Apparel.
This would mean that she would skip the chief designer role and directly be in charge of Gardner Apparel.
Anyway, Nicole knew Anna’s motive behind this and immediately declined.
Regardless, Anna continued to discuss with her about Hayden. “Nicole, what are you going to do about Hayden?”
She sat on the sofa and asked hesitantly.
Ever since Sasha’s disappearance, Colton was never spotted with a woman by his side. In the past few years, he
had been very reserved. It was rare for him to be interested in a woman again. In addition to that, this woman was
the mother of his child. Hence, Anna naturally treated Nicole nicely.
Nicole smiled slightly as she looked at Anna and said, “Mrs. Gardner, you are very kind, but Olivia is against it, and I
don’t want to cause any trouble to the Gardner Family. If you want to see Hayden, I’ll bring him to visit you. But
about coming into the family… I think we can forget about that.”
Anna knew that Nicole cared about what Olivia had said before, so she quickly jumped in and said, “You don’t have
to worry about her, as long as you are willing to reunite with us.”
“I’d have to reject you on this, then, ” Nicole said firmly. She pursed her lips and looked at Anna before continuing,
“Mrs. Gardner, Hayden, and I have lived together for four years. I don’t want to part with him.”
Anna was a little embarrassed upon hearing that before she finally sighed. “I’ll tell you what, Nicole. Old Mr.
Benedict will be returning home in a few days. Unfortunately, he has a brain tumor, and his time is running out. If
it’s convenient for you, would it be possible for you to bring Hayden here to visit him?”
When Nicole saw the sincere look on Anna’s face, she couldn’t bear to refuse.
Then, she seemed to recall what Olivia mentioned and hesitated before saying, “I can’t afford to anger Old Mr.
Benedict. As for Hayden—”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAnna immediately interrupted and said, “Old Mr. Benedict isn’t someone who minds the family status of his in-laws.
He returned home this time because the doctor had told him that his time was short. At most, he would only have
half a year left.”
Her face was filled with despair as she sighed.
“If he were to go through an operation, he might get a few more years. But, the risk of the operation is too high. He
might die on the operating table if they are not careful. So instead, he decided not to take the risk and come back
to enjoy his last few months.”
Since Anna had already said all that, Nicole couldn’t refuse. She hesitated for a moment longer before nodding.
“Okay, I understand. I will bring Hayden to visit Old Mr. Benedict when he’s here.”
When Anna heard this, she gleamed. “Thank you, Nicole.”
Nicole did not say much, and Anna soon left after a few short exchanges.
As for Benedict’s situation, Nicole had overheard Julia discussing it. Julia came from a family of doctors, and her
parents were among the most famous doctors in the world. Thus, the Gardners had been seeking their help all this
while.
Nevertheless, Benedict’s prognosis did not seem optimistic, and even her family couldn’t do anything about it.
