Chapter 2411

Ryder furrowed his brows and said, "It's probably because we accepted this task."

Since Jared was involved, there was only one possibility—it was for Nicole's sake.

"Oh." Gary also realized it. "We're helping Nicole, and Mr. Johnston doesn't want to owe us a favor."

He actually felt that Jared was overthinking. They were helping Nicole willingly, and regardless of how Nicole perceived it, Gary believed they were friends.

"What?" Gary was puzzled.

"Nicole helped me back then, so I suppose I'm repaying her favor now." Ryder believed that helping Nicole was only fair.

Preston glanced at the two of them and said, "Stop dwelling on it. This is a good thing. Weren't you two always looking for investors for your new company? Having the Johnston Group invest is a solution to your major problem."

Furthermore, with the help of the Johnston Group, he believed this new artificial intelligence company would thrive.
