Chapter 95


    Chapter 95 Bumped Into the Ex


    “Director Schmidt, didn’t you invite Nicole to join the wee dinner? Bring him along and I’ll naturally


    have a way to embarrass her,” Queenie dered confidently.


    Truth was, she had spent quite some effort to track down Nicole’s ex-boyfriend. Back then, Nicole


    broke up with Henry for the sake of money in order to save her mother, therefore Queenie was sure


    that Nicole felt guilty toward him.


    On the other hand, Henry was actually a snob who was easily influenced by money, so of course


    Queenie would seize this perfect opportunity to use him.


    Joanna cast a side nce at Henry and frowned slightly as she didn’t find this man attractive at all, and


    she wondered how Nicole even fell for him.


    “You mean him?” Disdain shed through Joanna’s eyes.


    Queenie smirked. “Director Schmidt, you just have to bring him there and he’ll know what to do.


    Regardless of the oue, it doesn’t cost you anything, isn’t it?”


    Joanna looked back and forth between Queenie and Henry for a while. Indeed, she had disliked Nicole,


    so she agreed after pondering for a while. “Alright, I’ll trust you this time.”


    Meanwhile, Queenie smiled even brighter upon hearing Joanna’s eptance.


    Nicole, it seems like you’re truly a nuisance. Everyone is against you!

    The sky had turnedpletely dark by the time it was 8 at night, yet the city was brightly lit.


    The weather was slightly chilly tonight. It was drizzling, yet one could still feel the cold although the rain


    wasn’t heavy.


    Around 7 o’clock, Joanna sent Nicole the location. It was at a karaoke lounge in Goldwick. The room


    number was 888, so Nicole figured that it was a big private room.


    Nicole stayed at home and waited until the time had passed 8 o’clock before she wore a jacket and


    headed out. Perhaps the sky seemed to be foggy due to the fine rain.


    Nicole drove to the location and could hear a noisy atmosphere the moment she stepped into the


    lounge. She frowned ufortably as she never had any liking for bustling ces.


    After enquiring from a waiter the way to Room No.888, she headed to the room.


    It was a huge private room. When she walked in, red and blue spot lights were shing in the room,


    and she couldn’t recognize the other guests at all because the room was very dark.


    “Hi, Ms. Lisa, wee. I thought you couldn’t make it.” Joanna stood up the moment Nicole walked in.


    “I rushed over after I finished settling my stuff, but I’m stillte. Sorry about that,” Nicole replied politely.


    Besides the staff from Design Department, there were a few other people in the room whom she had


    not met before.


    “I’m d you’re here. We have been waiting for you.” Thereafter, Joanna introduced a few individuals


    to Nicole. “This is Mr. Stanley Larry, the manager of Finance Department. This is Mr. Shaun Geller, the


    deputy manager of Human Resource Department. And this is Mr. Henry Cooper from Logistics


    Department. ”


    Nicole had not met the first two people, so she merely wore a courteous smile while Joanna introduced


    them. However, there was an obvious change in her expression when it came to Henry’s turn.


    She lifted her eyes to look at the man sitting at the corner of the couch. Although he appeared to have


    aged slightly aspared to five years ago, there was not much change in his appearance.


    Perceiving Nicole’s gaze, Henry also shifted his gaze toward Nicole and feigned a shocked look upon


    recognizing her. He parted his lips and called out softly, “Nicole?”


    Nicole wore a rueful smile as she had never thought she would bump into Henry by coincidence.


    Feeling a lump rising in her throat, she nodded at Henry and greeted him. “Hey, Henry.”


    Meanwhile, Joanna pretended to only have discovered that the two were acquaintances. “Lisa, do you


    know Henry? What a coincidence!” she eximed in surprise.


    “We’re ex-ssmates,” Nicole exined and slowly walked up to Henry.


    Five years ago, they had dated for almost a year. Initially, she thought they would be together for the


    lifetime, but she ended up breaking up with him resolutely for the sake of her mother. As such, she had


    always felt guilty toward him.


    Henry’s dark eyes flickered upon seeing Nicole sitting next to him.


    Truth was, he was a normal staff member in the Logistics Department. Queenie came to him and


    offered to promote him to team leader as long as he agreed to embarrass Nicole.
