Chapter 827

“Of course not. This is for you.” Jared took a set of documents from the back seat and
handed it to Nicole.

“What is this?”

“Isn‘t Riddle Corporation bidding for the Aegis Corporation project? This is the profile of Aegis Corporati
on.” When Jared heard that Riddle Corporation was bidding for the project, he immediately sent someo
ne to do a background check on Aegis Corporation.

“Aegis Corporation‘s profile?” Nicole smiled with delight. She had been scratching her head for the past
few days on how to get this information, not expecting Jared had done that for her.

“Thank you.” Nicole gave Jared an affectionate look.

“Just a thank you?” Jared seized the opportunity.

“What do you want?” Nicole looked at him.

He suddenly gave her a quick kiss. “Let‘s take this as a thank you gift.”

Nicole was startled. Just as she was about to say something, the car stopped.

“Here we are, but I will not follow you in. I still have things to take care of back in the office.”
Jared made an
excuse before Nicole could say anything. In fact, it was not so much of an excuse, as he was really bus
y. If it were not for the documents, he would have still been in a meeting at the moment.

“Really?” Nicole did not believe his words.



“Bye.” Nicole watched Jared‘s car go away before entering the house.

“You‘re back so fast?” Nicole sent a message to Sean before she left school. Now he had
arrived home one step ahead of her.

“What exactly is going on, Nicole? You didn‘t say it clearly on the phone.” Sean looked at her with quest
ion marks in his eyes.

Nicole sat down and then spoke slowly. “Mr. Ellison called me to his office today.”

“Mr. Ellison?” Daniel instantly tensed up when he heard Mr. Ellison looking for Nicole.

Nicole saw Daniel‘s unusual expression and quickly reassured him. “Don‘t be
nervous. Listen to me slowly.”

“Aren‘t we bidding for the Aegis Corporation project? Mr. Ellison knew
about it, and he talked to me today that he hoped to work with us to bid for the Aegis Corporation projec
t.”

Instead of easing up, Sean got a little nervous. “Mr. Ellison is eyeing the project as well?”

“From my observation, he doesn‘t seem to be interested in that project.”

“So what is his purpose for working with us?” Sean looked down thoughtfully.

“Whatever his
purpose, with what I know of him, he is not going to do anything bad to us. Otherwise, he wouldn‘t offer

“I agree to work with Mr. Ellison. First, we will outbid our competitors ; second, it enhances
our relationship with Mr. Ellison for more cooperation next time.” Daniel thought this was good; it killed tw



Sean thought for a long while before looking up at Daniel and then at Nicole. “I agree with Dad.”

“That‘s great. I‘ll bring Harvey
home another day, and you guys talk about the cooperation .” Nicole looked at Daniel.

“Okay, then. You make an appointment with him.”

“Sean, what do you think of that draft tender document?” Nicole asked him.

“I didn‘t see their bidding price, but I could roughly tell
from the tender document that the McCarthy family is betting big on the project. So we must also be pre

“Show our hand?” Gloria was surprised.
