Chapter 308 Need an Office

“Let’s take a stroll over to President Gardner’s office,” Nicole said before she started leading the way. Whitney’s

eyes lit up—she had nearly forgotten how Nicole and Colton had some history together. “Do you have any ideas,

Nicole?” Whitney hurried after the other woman.

“Mrs. Gardner wanted me to be Gardner Apparel’s CEO previously, but I rejected her offer. However, I believe it’s

now pretty easy for me to request a position in Gardner Corporation,” Nicole uttered with a smile. Whitney seemed

to understand what Nicole meant as she hastily nodded while cheering. “I knew you’d come up with a plan, Nicole!”

She stuck closely behind Nicole as they headed to the top floor.

Nicole got Whitney to wait outside while she headed into Colton’s office alone. Tony wasn’t surprised to see Nicole

as he greeted her politely before letting her in. Colton was seated at his desk in the office, and he seemed to be

thinking about something as he stared at his computer. When he saw Nicole walking in, he shifted his gaze toward

her.

“Nicole,” he spoke gently while giving her a sincere smile. She strode over to his table while maintaining eye

contact with him. “I got chased out by your staff members from the design department. What do you think I should

do now?” she asked with a smile.

“What?” A confused look surfaced on Colton’s face when he heard what she said. Nicole explained herself in a

leisurely tone when she saw Colton’s cluelessness. “F&M Apparel and Gardner Corporation are working together,

but I’m no longer part of F&M Apparel, so they sent a new staff member over. Since there’s a person to take over

my job, they decided to chase me out of the office,” she uttered.

Colton chuckled when he sensed the anger in her tone. “Are you unhappy because of that?” he asked.

“I wouldn’t dare to be angry. I obeyed their orders and left the office—I’m here to bid goodbye now, President

Gardner.” Nicole continued to smile—she didn’t sound angry, nor did she sound like she was there to snitch on

someone else. Colton could tell that Nicole had shown up because she wanted to express some of her annoyance

to him, but he suppressed his laughter as he addressed her statement. “So, what’s your plan from now on, Miss

Anderson?”

Nicole raised her chin a little in confidence before she responded. Previously, she had noticed that the room beside

Colton’s office on the same floor had a great view. But, unfortunately, it had been empty for a while now. “Mrs.

Gardner previously mentioned something about hiring me as the CEO of Gardner Apparel,” Nicole said in a careful

tone.

“So, are you prepared to take the job?” Colton raised an eyebrow as he questioned Nicole.

Nicole stuck her bottom lip out as she was deep in thought. She wasn’t an idiot—she knew that she would be tied

down to Gardner Corporation if she took this job. It had taken her a lot of effort to get out of F&M Apparel, and she

wasn’t about to dig herself another grave.

“No. I want to have a partnership with Gardner Apparel using my name. In other words, I’ll be working as the

founder of Ann. Let me know what you think,” Nicole expressed herself confidently while gazing at Colton with

sparkling eyes.

Colton nodded as he stared at the confident woman before his eyes. He couldn’t seem to reject her at all. “Of

course,” he replied. The smile on Nicole’s face widened when she saw the man nodding. “Since we’re going to be

work partners, it wouldn’t be too much for me to ask for an office, right?”

“Of course not,” Colton said. Before Nicole could tell him about the room next door, he provided her with the same

offer. “The room next door is empty. What do you think of that spot, Miss Anderson?”

Nicole froze for a moment as she hadn’t expected him to read her mind. That’s good, I guess, she thought while

nodding her head. “Great. I’ll tell the people to move my stuff up from the office downstairs. I’m used to my usual

furniture, so I’d like to continue using them.”

“Sure. You can let Tony know about this, and he’ll get someone to arrange it for you,” Colton followed up gracefully.

It was clear as day that they had great chemistry with each other.
