Chapter 2276 Lectured


    Fortunately, Hamilton was mentally strong. He quickly smiled and said, “Logan is dealing with some


    important matters in the office, so I volunteered to run errands for him. It’s also because I really wanted


    to meet you formally, Ms. Stanton. Please forgive me if I’ve offended you.”


    Nicole raised her eyebrow. At least, he made her feelfortable.


    He was not a scheming or calctive person and was more like an innocent boy.


    Nicole chuckled. “You''re wee, I heard from my father that you’re his friend’s son. Which family are


    you rted to?”


    “Lance Sheldon is my cousin. It’s actually quite a coincidence. I was going to join my cousin’spany,


    but he suddenly withdrew his business from Anta. Fortunately, you and Uncle Floyd are still willing to


    take me in.”


    Nicole paused slightly and looked up at him.


    “Lance?”


    Lance gave up on his ns in Anta not long after Yvette’s passing.


    With Lance’s ability, if he followed his n to expand his business in Anta, he would have gained a


    firm foothold within five years and be a force not to be underestimated.


    However, Yvette’s death was a huge blow to him, to the point that he would not be able to survive if he


    did not leave this city.


    Thus, Lance passed up the opportunity and left Anta.


    Nicole and Lance were acquainted because of a mutual friend.


    They did not keep in touch with each other frequently because they were afraid of invoking each


    other’s pain.


    Thus, when Hamilton introduced himself as Lance’s cousin, Nicole subconsciously thought of Yvette.


    The past that she kept hidden in her heart surfaced again and aroused a stinging pain.


    The pain was so sudden that Nicole’s face suddenly paled.


    Hamilton did not know about the things that happened in the past and the rtionship between Lance


    and Nicole.


    He spoke in a clear voice.


    “Ms. Stanton, you don’t need to take special care of me. Just treat me as an ordinary assistant. I’m


    here to learn, so it won’t be good if I get special treatment.”


    Nicole was speechless.


    She did not know what to say for a few seconds.


    The sadness in her heart faded away after a while, and she looked at him with aplicated gaze.


    “It’s good that you have some self-awareness.”


    Nicole thought, ‘Hamilton is merely an assistant. Did he think that I was nning to treat him like some


    VIP? Even if Lance is here right now, Lance won’t show any sense of superiority. What a naive kid!’


    However, Nicole changed her impression of him.


    Hamilton did not seem to have anything on his mind other than work, let alone a blind date.


    He was not at all interested in her, and he was simply weird.


    Nicole finally epted his existence and did not find him so annoying anymore.


    She lowered her eyes.


    “Ham, you can ask Logan for your task, and he’ll arrange some work for you.”


    “Then, when will you go back to work, Ms. Stanton?”


    Nicole paused. “What did you say?”


    “You’ve been on vacation for a long time. This year alone, you were out of the office for several months


    already. How can the president of a listedpany be so rxed and nonchnt? I think ourpany


    work to them? If they do, it’ll be toote to cry over it. Ms. Stanton, although I heard about your abilities


    when I was abroad, you’re still too protected, so you don’t know the dangers in this world!”

    Nicole raised her eyes and looked at Hamilton in shock as he lectured her endlessly.


    Right.


    He was lecturing her.


    This was the first time Nicole was lectured by a subordinate, let alone by a subordinate who had just


    started work not long ago.


    More importantly, what he said made sense.


    Nicole started to feel ashamed because of what he said.


    She suddenly felt like her vacation was not so leisurely anymore.


    Nicole felt a little awkward as she looked at the man who was lecturing her without realizing his identity.


    She coughed heavily and interrupted his words.


    “Hamilton, what do you know anyway? This is a business strategy. You’re still too young and have a lot


    to learn. You don’t need to tell me what to do. Thepany has its own rules and regtions. I’m the


    president of thepany, so if I can’t even take a break as I wish, what’s the point of being in this


    position?”


    Hamilton expressed dissatisfaction with her nonchnt attitude.


    However, he did not continue to talk due to his status.


    He sighed helplessly as if he was kind to remind her.


    “Well… Anyway, I’ve said everything I needed to say!”


    Nicole took the document speechlessly, signed her name, and handed it to him.


    “In the future, get Logan to run errands. You’re not suitable for this job.”


    At least Logan would not affect her mood.


    Nicole felt horrible.


    Hamilton took the documents and left with satisfaction after having met Nicole.


    Nicole sneered and felt that the coffee was tasteless.


    She had promised Eric to pick Chance up from school along with Chatty, Fischer, and Levi because


    Eric saved her life, and there was no reason to backtrack.


    When she arrived at school, Levi was reading as usual.


    Chance was hovering around Chatty while Fischer looked speechless and disgusted, trying to draw


    Chatty’s attention to him instead of Chance from time to time.


    The teacher enthusiastically let them leave with Nicole.


    Chatty naturally held Nicole’s hand. Fischer was just going to hold Nicole’s other hand when he saw


    that Chance had gone to Chatty’s side.


    Thus, Fischer thought about it and ran to the other side of Chatty to hold her hand.


    Chatty tried to shake Fischer off but could not.


    When Nicole passed by the office, she saw Hamiltoning out of her office.


    How strange.


    She was not in her office, so why did he go in there?


    “Ms. Stanton, you’re back?”


    Nicole pursed her lips and nodded.


    Chatty went over and took Logan’s hand.


    “Hi, Uncle Logan!”


    “Hello, Ms. Sloan.”


    “Can you buy me some ice cream please?”


    Logan was speechless as he thought, ‘Why did she have to put me in such a dilemma?’


    Logan looked at Nicole inquiringly. Nicole nced at the excited Chatty and Fischer. New ch?pter

    “We’re going home soon, and it’s past the time for ice cream.”


    She patted Fischer’s head.


    “Take Chatty to the lounge to y for a while. I need to deal with some things first.”


    Fischer nodded obediently and left with Chatty in tow.


    They had been to the office many times and were familiar with the ce.


    Nicole turned around and went to her office. Logan immediately followed.


    Seeing that Nicole’s expression was off, Logan did not know what went wrong.


    “President, what’s the matter?”


    “How is Hamilton performingtely?”


    Nicole frowned.


    “You don’t know how to talk anymore?”
