Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 1336 No Collaboration

Two days had passed, and there was still no response from Kendrick. Nicole was almost certain that he was going to decline the collaboration.

She and Chloe still hadn't managed to get in touch with Kendrick. They had been repeatedly calling his secretary's phone, but there was no response. They were told that he was busy and had no time to spare.

This reply left Nicole feeling anxious. If he wasn't even willing to answer a phone call, how could they proceed with anything else?

She had no intention of betraying herself. She believed that she could definitely convince Kendrick to work with them with her proposal.

"What should we do, Nicole?" Listening to the dial tone, Chloe looked at Nicole with a sense of helplessness. She didn't expect to hit a roadblock so soon.

Nicole pursed her lips and did not say anything. However, she wasn't the type to just sit and wait. Her next step...

Upon seeing that Nicole wasn't looking too happy, Chloe sighed in resignation and sat back in her seat to search for other potential candidates that could collaborate with them.

If she couldn't find anyone suitable, she was prepared to lower their requirements.

"Don't worry. We'll find a way."

As Chloe was contemplating lowering their requirements, Nicole suddenly spoke up with determination.

Chloe looked surprised when she heard this. When she saw the firm expression on Nicole's face, she couldn't help but smile.

Nicole hadn't given up yet, so what right did she have to give up?

Nicole looked at Kendrick's secretary's number on her phone. She took a deep breath and dialed the number.

She intended to ask Kendrick's secretary directly. If that didn't work, she would go to Kendrick's company and talk to him.

Roxanna, who was in the country, had everything ready. She and Chloe couldn't afford to drop the ball at this crucial moment.

Upon thinking back to her recent video call with Roxanna, who was still working on research reports at around 2.00AM, Nicole felt she couldn't let Roxanna down.

The call was connected, but there was no answer from the other side.

The call was about to be automatically disconnected, and Nicole felt uneasy. Kendrick was the most suitable candidate among everyone. She didn't want to collaborate with anyone else if possible because collaborating with Kendrick would maximize their benefits and boost the reputation of the medical base.

Only by doing so could she help Colton to some extent and save more people.

Just then, Nicole thought of something and her expression darkened.

"Hello. There was a meeting just now. This is the secretary's office."

A woman's voice came from the other end.

Nicole recognized this voice. She had only exchanged a few words with his secretary during her discussion with Kendrick the other day, but she still remembered her voice.

"Hello, I'm Nicole Anderson. I wanted to inquire if Mr. Hofstead has agreed to collaborate with us. I believe that by working together, many things will proceed more smoothly, and the benefits can also be maximized."

Nicole knew that businessmen focused on profit, so the purpose of this call wasn't just to inquire about the reasons. She also wanted to secure an opportunity for the medical base.

The secretary who was answering the call had a displeased look on her face. Suddenly, she remembered what Kendrick had said to her yesterday.

"If Nicole calls you about collaboration, you can reply directly that we agree to collaborate. The contract can be drafted the next day, and we can arrange a time to sign it."

At the time, she didn't know why Kendrick was so confident that Nicole would call. After all, Nicole could find other people to collaborate with and wasn't confined to relying on Kendrick.

Unexpectedly, Nicole actually made the call.

"Oh, hello, Miss Anderson. Mr. Hofstead has agreed to collaborate. The contract will be ready by tomorrow, and we can arrange a time to sign it. When will you be available?"

The secretary was polite in her tone even if she didn't particularly like Nicole. After all, this was her job, and she kept work and personal feelings separate. NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.

"Okay. How about tomorrow at 2.00PM?" Nicole heard the positive response and quickly confirmed the timing as she was afraid that they would change their minds.

Chloe's eyes lit up when she heard Nicole's words. She knew that if Nicole said this, it meant that the other party had already agreed. With that, everything would be much easier.

The development of the medical base could finally begin and it would develop even better than expected!
