“I’ll make sure he backs off,” Nicole said, her eyes showing determination. “With DillCorp now under my control, everyone will know not to mess with it.”
“Do you think he’ll actually back down? He’s not one to give up easily,” Lulu said, concerned.
“We’ll see if Everett’s got what it takes,” Nicole replied coolly. “I’d love to see him try to pull anything off without my say-so.” She then looked intently at Lulu. “Tell everyone to keep things under wraps. We can’t let any company secrets leak out.”
Lulu nodded in understanding. “Got it,” she replied. She had also thought about telling everyone to stay quiet and maybe even spreading a few fake stories.
Seeing Lulu’s sly smile, Nicole chuckled and shook her head. ‘Lulu’s getting cleverer each day.’
Once Lulu left, Nicole started reading a file in front of her.
Over at NandoCorp’s manager’s office, Everett leaned back in his chair, looking annoyed. “You’re sure Nicole’s at DillCorp now?”
His assistant nodded. “Yes, she went there first thing this morning.”
Everett grinned menacingly. “Nicole may be smart, but she’ll make a mistake sooner or later.”
Everett was furious that Nicole had DillCorp. It was supposed to be his, but because of this, Harvey sneered at him. Everett felt like he was on his own, but he took solace in knowing he had been beefing up his own influence on the sly for years. Even without Harvey’s support, no one should think Everett was a pushover.
A determined thought crossed his mind, and he said, ‘ Now that she’s at DillCorp, it’s perfect. She’ll soon see that what should be mine will always be mine.”
“Mr. Riddle, what’s our next move?” the assistant whispered.
“We stick to the plan,” Everett said confidently. “DillCorp’s practically bankrupt. Do they really think they can turn things around in just a few days?” He doubted that even Nicole could save a company teetering on the edge so quickly.
The assistant nodded, and then added cautiously, “Should we take any extra precautions?”
“Like what?”
“Considering the CEO, Mr. Riddle,” the assistant trailed off, hesitating. ‘We should tread lightly around Nicole. She’s not someone we should take lightly.’
“What makes you think she can save DillCorp?” Everett scoffed. “Its downfall is inevitable, and Nicole won’t change that.”
The assistant simply nodded, not wanting to challenge Everett further, and left.
Then, there was a knock on the door.
“Mr. Riddle, the CEO would like to see you,” came the secretary’s voice.
“Got it,” Everett replied.
With a frown, Everett rose and headed to Damien’s office.
“Dad,” he began, approaching the desk, “did you want to see me?”
Damien looked up. “I heard DillCorp is now under Nicole’s control.”
“Yes, it’s true. Nicole’s there right now,” Everett confirmed.
