Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 1339 A Different Feeling

"I often go to that club to eat. It has everything—good taste, aroma, and appearance. The prices are reasonable as well. If you have the time, you can try it out."

On the way, the car was quiet with no one speaking. Kendrick was the first to break the silence. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

His goal was to get closer to Nicole. He couldn't just let go of such a good opportunity.

"Thank you, Mr. Hofstead. We appreciate your hospitality and the meal," Nicole said gracefully, but inside, she felt a pang of regret for the dishes she had bought. She hadn't even taken a bite, and now the dishes were just sitting in the restaurant. She hoped that they would be treated well and not go to waste.

Fortunately, the journey was short. In a matter of minutes, the car smoothly pulled up in front of the club.

Kendrick got out of the car and casually handed the car keys to a man in a black suit standing nearby.

Nicole smiled faintly and got out of the car with Chloe.

As for what to eat, neither she nor Chloe were picky eaters, but coming to a place like this, Nicole couldn't help but wonder about Kendrick's intentions.

Kendrick might not have anticipated that trying to treat Nicole to some good food could also be misinterpreted. However, any person would easily misunderstand his actions.

Chloe also cast a less-than-friendly look at Kendrick. She kept reminding herself that he was a business partner and that she shouldn't lose her temper.

"I've reserved a private room here. This room has always been for my use. If you have time to come here in the future, you can just mention my name to them."

Kendrick didn't notice at all where his words went wrong.

He probably hadn't considered that Nicole might be more focused on her career and wouldn't be impressed by his small tricks.

Nicole nodded with a faint smile on her lips. It was her final show of respect for Kendrick.

The three of them sat down together. Nicole and Chloe remained quiet while watching as Kendrick silently ordered dishes.

Every gesture he made seemed to flaunt his financial prowess.

Nicole exchanged a smile with Chloe. Since they were here, they might as well enjoy the meal. Even though they hadn't planned to spend money on such a lavish dinner, it would still be a more enjoyable experience than their previous meals. They deserved a little indulgence.

Since arriving here, they hadn't had a decent meal. They were busy working on various proposals. They were engrossed in their tasks of seeking new business partners.

The club's service was efficient; all the dishes were served within twenty minutes.

Kendrick smiled as he looked at the table full of dishes. "Miss Anderson, young lady, please go ahead and eat. I believe you must be hungry."

Both of them nodded and didn't say much. They lowered their heads and started eating.

When he saw this, his smile grew wider. He had finally proven his capability to Nicole. Now, he could help her. Compared to Colton, he was confident that he was slightly better off.

Nicole kept her head down and ate. The food here was indeed delicious.

At this moment, Nicole had already made up her mind. If the medical base were to be established in the future, she could bring the research team here for a meal every now and then. It was a way to reward them.

Upon thinking of this, Nicole nodded with determination. It was a way to show her appreciation.

Chloe couldn't help but speed up her eating pace. Nicole hadn't noticed the way Kendrick looked at her, but Chloe was good at reading people. The collaboration between Kendrick and them likely had more than just a mutual benefit as its purpose—it must also be related to Nicole.

"Miss Anderson, I've already chosen the next location. I have a factory where it can serve as your base with some simple modifications. Until your own base is constructed, would you like to use my factory?"

Kendrick looked satisfied as he watched the two of them enjoy their meal. Suddenly, he brought up the topic of the base.
