Right Person, Wrong Time novel Chapter 443

Chapter 443 Rainy Day

Nicole didn’t have much to do for a few days—she would either be at Gardner Corporation or Julia’s place. The media companies were fighting to get exclusive information about Richard and Christi’s relationship, especially since Christi was the Zuniga Family’s only daughter.

She was like the princess of the family. The Jenkins Family really struck gold this time! They got themselves affiliated with a mighty family, the reporters thought.

Since the Gardner and Jenkins Families were close, the Gardner would undoubtedly benefit if someone from the Jenkins Family got married to one of the Zunigas. So, Bryan was highly discouraged to hear this news.

If Richard and Christi actually got married, the Zuniga Family was bound to be supportive of the Gardners. With the Zuniga Family’s help, the Gardner Family would definitely surpass the Kohlberg Family.

More importantly, Queenie was nowhere to be found. Previously, Bryan heard that Queenie had attended Benedict’s birthday, but he hadn’t seen her since then. That b*tch! Bryan’s face was red with fury.

Queenie had taken so much of his money, and she had just disappeared after that. She even seemed like she was on the Gardner Family’s side! That ungrateful b*tch! I really made a mistake by caring for someone who doesn’t understand the concept of gratitude.

The weather was rather gloomy outside, and it began to drizzle. Even though it was summertime, the air turned rather chilly after it started raining. Nicole was in her office.

Ann from Gardner Corporation’s partnership with Aimee International had been a success. After Nicole told Joanna off, Joanna was finally acting more decently. She was no longer trying anything that would make Nicole mad.

Since Whitney had gone abroad, Nicole didn’t have anyone around her. So, she suggested that Scarlett be her assistant. Scarlett was tasked to handle some of the minor tasks.

Scarlett nodded before hurrying off without a word. Meanwhile, Nicole stayed in her office for a while more. The rainy weather made her feel rather down.

Ever since her last conversation with Colton, she realized she had been trying to avoid him. She felt like things would get awkward if they bumped into one another.

But at the same time, Nicole believed it would be better if they talked things out. Otherwise, the awkwardness would remain as long as they never revealed their true intentions to each other. So even though Hayden was Colton’s son, the only thing that Nicole felt that night was shame and nothing else.

At that thought, Nicole picked the documents up before heading to Colton’s room. Since their offices were next to each other, it only took Nicole a few seconds to get to him.

Once she got to his office, she saw him working on something. When he saw Nicole, he looked up and gave her a smile. “I thought you were planning to avoid me for the rest of your life, Nicole.”
