"The Japanese food here is very delicious. Let's try it?" Seeing no response from Nicole, Consuela
suggested.
Nicole nodded, "okay."
After they entered the Japanese restaurant and sat down, Nicole ordered the meal absentmindedly.
The scene that she watched Bevis and Consuela kept flashing through her mind.
After a long while, Consuela still didn't say a word. Finally, Nicole couldn't help but ask Consuela
politely, "what have you been busy with recently?"
Consuela shrugged her shoulders. "I was just busy with my family stuff and my company's affairs.
Messy around."
"What about you and Bevis? How are you doing after the party?" Asked Nicole, but Consuela tried to
avoid her question.
"What? Bevis? He... He did sent me home," Consuela continued, looking a little awkward, "and we are
still normal friends as usual."
Nicole and Consuela had known each other for a long time, so Nicole could easily tell that Consuela
was telling a clumsy lie.
But why did Consuela have to tell a lie?
'now that she has made some progress with Bevis, isn't it a good thing to share?'?
Why didn't she tell me?
Actually, Nicole was very confused. But she didn't want to embarrass her friend, she decided to let it go
if Consuela didn't want to talk about it.
Nicole thought that maybe Consuela was hiding something from her, or maybe she just wanted to wait
until everything with Bevis was settled.
Since Consuela was there, they didn't eat in silence, but less relaxed than before.
After lunch, Consuela and Nicole parted. Standing alone by the street lamp, Nicole suddenly realized
that she was going to ask Consuela about the gossip news of Jacob.
Nicole had been a little worried before, fearing that Consuela would ask her about her relationship with
Jacob. However, it was obvious that her worry was unnecessary, because Consuela didn't mention that
at all.
This polite Consuela didn't look like the usual her at all. Nicole was really worried about her.
Nicole returned to Jacob's villa, feeling more worried than before she met Consuela.
"Miss Nicole, you are back."
Lily welcomed Nicole warmly as Nicole entered the house.
"Yes." Nicole nodded and forced a smile. "Lily, I'm a little tired. I'm going to have a rest now."
"Go and get some sleep."
Actually Nicole didn't want to sleep. She was just upset and wanted to be alone for a while.
Back in the bedroom, she took off her coat and closed the door. After being in a daze for a while, she
turned on the computer and began to edit the video.
It lasted for an afternoon.
After sending the video to the website as usual, Nicole went downstairs for dinner.
Jacob didn't come back, and Nicole didn't ask about him. She sat quietly at the table and finished
dinner.
Seeing her in low spirits, Lily said nothing more.
After dinner, she went back to the bedroom. Nicole replied several private messages and some
comments. When she was about to turn off the computer to wash her face, she suddenly received a
new private message.
"Hello, I'm the agent of Awake-Morning Agency. I'm very interested in your video and want to talk to
you about signing a contract."
At the first sight of the message, Nicole took it for granted that this puzzling message was a lie.
But she became excited when she read it again.
What if it was true!
While thinking about this, she started the search engine to search this company called Awake-Morning
Agency and replied this message with worry.
"Excuse me, may I know what is the so-called contract signing?"
Awake-Morning Agency, it was an investment company which made the Internet celebrity. They signed
many famous young men and skillful clients under the name of the company, and put them into the
training list. Then they ordered a series of custom-made operations and promotion methods.
The company's address was the same city as Nicole's, which was in a haystack building in another
district.
Although praise and calumniation coming together with this company, it was at least a regular
company. Nicole couldn't help but feel excited when she read the contents she found page by page.
Meanwhile, the agent replied.
"You can sign a contract with our company, and we will be responsible for your planning and
advertising. If it's convenient for you, we'd better have a face-to-face conversation, or you can come to
our company and talk about it."
Jacob didn't restrict Nicole's freedom now, so it was not difficult to see the agent. But what Nicole was
afraid of was that if this was a liar?
She had never worked with these people before, so she didn't know whether there was a trap or not.
But if she refused the party, Nicole was not reconciled.
She insisted on making a video of cakes and tortured herself for so long just in hope that it would be a
good result through this path?
Now the opportunity was right in front of her. How could she give it up easily.
After thinking it over, Nicole gave the agent a straight answer.
"I will consider your suggestion carefully. Can we meet at a coffee shop or restaurant?"
"OK. What about 3 p.m. the day after tomorrow. WY Cafe on the ZW Road in the East District?"
As long as they were in public, even if the person wanted to do something bad, it was useless. Thinking
of this, Nicole replied, "okay.".
The agent was not a hard nut to crack. He ended the conversation after he exchanged the phone
number with Nicole.
Nicole was so excited that she turned off the computer and began to think about it.
If she could successfully sign the contract, she would even not become a famous star in the future. As
long as she had a small group of fixed fans, she should be able to maintain her life after leaving Jacob.
At least, she could run a small cake shop afterwards, she could earn money to support her mother and
brother.
Looking at her face with water droplets in the mirror, Nicole bit her lips and prayed inwardly, 'God bless
her! I hope I won't be confronted with fraud and can successfully sign the contract. God bless me,
please Jacob don't intervene in this matter and don't cut off my road!'.
Actually, Nicole didn't need to worry anything about it.
At this moment, Jacob didn't have time to pay attention to her. The new products from his new
company would come online, and the old company would bid at the same time. A lot of things had to be
dealt with, making him almost breathless.
Thanks that he had a habit of exercise. Otherwise, it would be hard for ordinary people to carry such a
heavy load on his shoulders.
Of course, hard work was rewarded. Through Jacob's own efforts, not only got the recognition of the
elders in the field, but also separated his own industry from the Gu family. And he gradually developed
and developed.
It would soon be the time for Jacob to tell David the truth.
