"Don't you worry.” Jared looked at her and smiled.
Jared allowed Max to drive away once he had seen Nicole entering Ike's factory.
"Ike." Nicole walked in and called out to him.
‘I'm here!’ Ike's voice came booming in from one of the directions.
Nicole followed the sound and walked over and saw that Ike was working on something beside a prototype of a manned flying car.
"What are you doing here?" Nicole walked over and asked.
‘I'm dismantling and upgrading it."
‘Ike, the reference value of this first-generation prototype is limited," she said as she looked him in the eyes. "Don't waste your time on it. You saw it at the science and technology exhibition yesterday. The renditions produced by our opponents are very different from what we have right here. We should go back to research and development immediately to see where the design department is going with this. We can also give them some fresh suggestions.”
Ike's eyes widened upon hearing those words. "What you've said is right. Let's go to the base immediately.”
"Wait. I'm going to back yesterday's data up from your computer,” she said. "I had left in a hurry last night, and I didn't get to extract it."
"Okay, let's go.” Ike led Nicole to the office.
“There's one more thing I wish to tell you." Nicole suddenly stopped.
"What's the matter?" Ike looked at Nicole with his brows furrowed.
"The people here can create accessories and other products for the manned flying cars, and they'll still have a certain share in the market by then. Don't waste too much time on the production of the complete cars. It won't be easy to compete with the major companies,” Nicole said. The words were purely well-meant advice.
"I'll think about it, let's go to the R&D base first.” Ike said while looking at Nicole.
‘Yeah.’ Nicole quickly extracted and unzipped the files on the computer before turning it off.
"Let's go.” Nicole looked at Ike.
"Okay."
Being the gentleman Ike was, he opened the car door for Nicole, after which he got onto the driver's seat and floored the accelerator, speeding off to the R&D facility.
"Nicole, you must have been really tired last night, right?” Ike chatted about that which had happened the night before.
"It's alright to be tired, but I've been on my rear for a long time, which was something you thought was funny.” Nicole smiled as she felt a little embarrassed.
"No, I think you tend to forget about yourself and everything around you when you're working. Otherwise, you wouldn't be like that.” Ike glanced at Nicole.
‘Gosh, her skin is so fair,’ he thought.
‘I have no choice. That's the nature of my work. Sometimes, I even feel as if I am not taking much care of my body. I'm glad I exercise all year around and am in great health, otherwise, I would not be able to take it," Nicole joked.
"Do you work out often too?" Ike heard Nicole talking about exercise and happened to strike up a new topic and interest between them.
"Yes, I work out almost every day,’ she replied. "Judging by what you just said, I guess you exercise regularly too?"
"That's right, but not necessarily every day. Sometimes I give myself a day off if I don't have the time,” Ike said humorously.
‘It's true that sometimes, there is no way you can do it if you don't have the time, but when you do, you be able to get into a routine, and that'll be good for the body."
"I'll take you to the gym when I have the time. To have a look around, of course." Ike said, extending an invitation to Nicole.
"Sure. I haven't exercised much for these past few days. I'll give it a try.”
Nicole could not let this opportunity pass. If it was Harvey who had invited her, she might have to think hard about it, but as it was Ike, it did not occur to her that she would have to think about it at all.
"Then it's a deal. I'll pick you up another day when I have the time and we'll go to the gym for a workout session together." Ike said, wishing to settle this matter as soon as possible, so that Nicole would not think of changing her mind.
"Sure, no problem,” Nicole readily agreed.
