back then, when hailey yearned very much to be protected by nikolai, why could he not be like that now? he would always stand on agnes side.but now, everything had changed, had it not?hailey did not speak again. she lowered her head. on the way to the hospital, she did not say a word until the doctor came to check on her."it's okay. it's not severe. there's slight fracture. don't walk for a month and have a light diet." after bandaging the wound, the doctor carefully explained the precautionary measures and left the ward.nikolai took the wet wipes abd hesitated for a moment. then he handed it to hailey. when her wound was being bandaged just now, it hurts a word. currently, her face was covered with cold sweat.hailey took the wet wipes and wiped her face. her gaze wavered slightly as she looked at the ground not knowing what to say.nikokai's eyes became slightly dull. "hailey, there are still many misunderstanding between us to be resolved.""i hope you can give us a chance to
Hailey did not plan to go to other companies to work because she stole the secret of the cokes cooperation before. She dud not want to create trouble for herself either, so she went to the George's cooperation directly after she recovered from her injury."Hey, do you know there is a new director of the design department in the company?"In the morning, there were always gossips in the office. Quetta Johnson who was holding a cup of coffee whispered in Yvonne Lopez's ear who had just arrived.Yvonne smoothened her hair and sat down. She was slightly curious. "Ahh I didn't hear any news before. Why is it so sudden?"Stella Martin who was sitting at the desk opposite raised her eyebrows and looked smug. "I learn it straight from the horse mouth"Seeing the eager eyes of the other two people, Stella who was standing on her dignity was very pleased. She moved closer and whispered, "She's the elder sister of our boss, and she's also the eldest young lady of the George's cooperation. She's
"Miss George, these are the works sent by the design department just now." The secretary put a stack of documents on the table and then quietly went out.After dealing with the work in her hands, Hailey picked up the works and began to read them one by one. However, the more she looked at it, the more gloomy her face became. In the end, she had turned livid.Hailey never expected that the works submitted by such a large design department of the George's cooperation would be so unpresentable. It was not even as good as the for you jewelry that she had established before.If it was not for the fact that the for you jewelry had been given to Nikolai under Asher's scheme she would not he in such a difficult situation right now.Taking a deep breath abd closing the last work, Hailey dialed the internal line. "Summon all the staff in the design department to the conference room in fifteen minutes to have a meeting."In tbe conference room, Hailey had sat in the directors seat early. After w
The phone was in Nikolai's hand again and he sounded a little embarrassed. "Zaney called me and said he misses me, so I went to pick him up from the Xavier family to come to my house for dine fun. Now I'm going to pick you up at your company. You see..""Nikolai, you... You're acting shamelessly!" Hailey did not expect Nikolai to use Zaney as an excuse. Hence, she was instantly speechless.Nikolai touched his nose and looked at Zane's teasing eyes. "If I didn't do this, you wouldn't have agreed to have dinner with me."Hailey was so angry that she hung up the phone, feeling speechless. She looked at her watch. It was almost time to get off work. She packed up her things gloomily, got up and went downstairs.As expected, as soon as she left the company, she saw a black car parked in front of her. Then Nikolai who was in the driver's seat strode over with one hand behind his back.Hailey's facial expression changed slightly. She was startled. Could it be that Nikolai wanted to act like t
Hailey saw that Nikolai facial expression was firm, so she did not want to say anything more. They had just arrived at their destination. She was just about to wake Zane up when she saw Nikolai turn around and motioned for her not to do that.Nikolai carefully carried Zane out of Hailey's embrace. Nikolai told Hailey to move forward while holding Zane in his arms as he steadily followed behind.Zane woke up as soon as they entered the elevator. Hailey thought that he was going to cry like the last time, so she hurriedly reached out her hand and wanted to take him back.However, she saw Zane take a glance at Nikolai. Then he closed his eyes and fell asleep. His arms were still tightly around Nikolai's neck.Hailey was stunned. She did not regain her wuts until the elevator door opened. She was in a daze when she took Zane from Nikolai's arms."Hailey, I don't care what you think but I really want to start over with you.""Don't refuse me first. I know it's all my fault. I...I...just wan
Yonathan frowned and began to think carefully. Nikolai waited for a moment and saw thar Yonathan was still hesitating, so he directly added something else, "The documents Hailey took from me before are incomplete.""The more detailed information is still in my hands. If the Xavier family and the cokes cooperation cooperate together, I can consider sharing it with you"Yonathan eyes became dull. "What do you mean?"Nikolai's Voice was cold and clear. "Do you really think I was stupid enough not to make the most basic backups? To be exact, it's not backup. The one that Hailey took from me is just the general design. I hadn't made the detailed design yet, so I didn't print it out. It has been on my computer for a long time""Believe me, the diamond factory project can't be carried out without my detailed plan"Yonathan looked at Nikolai for a long time. Suddenly, he laughed. "Nikolai, you're really hard to see through. I will think about the cooperation and give you an answer tomorrow nig
Asher on the other end of the phone chuckled and felt a little depressed which was rare. "It's hard to say ok the phone. Let's talk about it when we meet"He had not imagined that Elizabeth counterattack and Prince Peter action would be so quick. It seemed to tell him that he was just a mete thing that they could crust at any moment. But that made him more resolute.It just so happened that after Elizabeth moved out that day,he stayed alone are Hailey's house. Hailey's lingering scent there was a little comforting to him.In tbe cafe, Hailey looked at the man in front of her, who tried his best to brace himself but still looked a little dispirited with a serious look on her face.It had only been less than a week, but why did Asher become like this?Hailey ordered two cups of coffee and asked with concern. "How did you become like this?"Asher sighed. "Do you know how the Lorenzo cooperation was developed by me, who is an orphan?"He casually took a sip of the coffee on the table to r
The conversation with Asher felt like a bucket of cold water for Hailey, eliminating the revival of her feelings.It seemed like both Nikolai and Asher were filled with ambiguity, making it hard for her to tell who was trustworthy. Hailey gradually became very guarded.The one who sensed her change the most was Nikolai since he used Zane as an excuse to come pick up Hailey every day.Hailey began to reject his advances coldly and unceremoniously, once again returning to her usual indifferent and unapproachable self.On that day, Nikolai came to pick her up as usual.Hailey lowered her eyes to avoid his concerned gaze. She said in a low voice. "Nikolai, I think you'd better not pick me up in the near future. I can go back with Zephira"She was so busy in tbe company everyday that she did not want to have much trouble because of Nikolai.Nikolai thought that Hailey had let down her guard towards him, but the situation har reverted all of a sudden. He felt he could not accept it at all o
