Sean looked at Nicole with doting eyes, "Now, can you tell US the real reason as to why you came back so suddenly?"
"Actually, I'm working on an experiment now, but the equipment and materials back there were insufficient. Therefore, I gave it some thought and decided to come back. I could gain the support I need from you guys, so I just came back. That's all." Nicole explained to them with a blank stare on her face.
She did not make mentions of her chip project to them. In the end of the day, it was a corporate secret which involved Jared's company. Because of this, she had to keep it private from them for the time being.
Sean grinned and said, "I knew it. It's impossible that you can't fit in there. In the end, it was because of their inability to accommodate your plans. Since you're back, you should just focus on your experiment. If you need anything, just let me know. I'll make sure to get you whatever you need."
"Well, I guess I'll have to thank you in advance." Nicole smiled and cupped Sean's hands in hers.
Sean laughed. "Nah, there's no need for that.”
Sean turned around to look at Jared and the smile on his face faded, whereupon he began acting with decorum and spoke to Jared in a much more formal manner. "Mr. Johnston, you have countless things to attend to on a daily basis. I'm sure you had to push aside some of your work to make it here today, right?"
"Not really. It has been a while since I visited Mr. and Mrs. Riddle. Coincidentally, I was having lunch with Nicole today, so we chatted and decided to come over together," Jared briefly explained to Sean.
"Oh"
"I heard that the Johnston Group and the Fisher Group are working on a renewable energy project. Do you mind sharing a little about it?” Sean asked, observing Jared as he popped the question.
Upon hearing Sean's question, Daniel and Steve turned their attention to Jared.
"The renewable energy project was decided upon when Henry was still around. It was he who had signed the contract with Fiorella. I don't really know much about this project either, but I suppose it's a project worth investing in, in the long run.
"You guys know how Fiorella is too. Over the past few years, none of the projects she invested in had failed. She cares a lot about this project as well," Jared briefly introduced the project, expressing that it was a project worth doing.
“It's not every day you get to come across a good project like this. If she needs any funding in the later stages, the Riddle family would be more than happy to help.” Sean looked at Jared convincingly.
Jared sized him up and he could tell that Sean was sincere about participating in the project.
‘Sure. But aren't you guys working closely with the Ellison family on one of projects helmed by Aegis Corporation? Do you have the resources to participate in another project?" Jared looked at Sean and questioned.
"Yes, we are collaborating with the Ellison family on that project by Aegis Corporation, but it's about to be completed soon. After that, I can use some of my resources on other projects. Even if it isn't the one pertaining to renewable energy, we would have participated in another." Sean looked at Jared confidently.
He was trying to tell Jared that the Riddle family was powerful.
"That's good. Once we begin focusing on the funding, I'll let you know.” Jared gave Sean some assurance.
‘Thank you in advance,” Sean said.
"The both of you should not be talking about work all the time. Brother, have you visited grandpa recently?" Nicole asked Sean.
"I went to his place about a few days ago. Grandpa did ask about you as well, but I didn't know that you were back already, so I told him that you're still abroad. Now that you're back, you should visit him soon. He really misses you a lot.” Sean turned to Nicole and began talking about everything that had happened at Mr. Riddle Sr.'s place a few days back.
"Alright, I'll pay him a visit within the next few days. Is there anything which he likes these days? I'll buy them for him." Nicole asked.
"He has everything he needs already. A visit alone will make him very happy, so there's no need to go bearing gifts," Sean explained.
"Alright then. I'll figure it out," Nicole replied.
"Anyway, are you seeing anyone now, brother?" Nicole suddenly asked Sean about his personal matters.
In response, Sean blushed and stared back at Nicole.
