Lingering Doting Marriage: Big Boss, Little Sweet Heart

Chapter 2772: Chapter 2781: I Can Help You

The sun sets in the west, the night covering the entire city, with high-rises outlined against the bustling metropolis.

Amidst the dazzling lights, the Kieferlin Hotel appeared gloriously luxurious, gathering the city’s celebrities.

Nicole Oliver had changed her clothes and carefully dressed before coming to the hotel.

She was led by a waiter into the restaurant on the third floor.

At the window seat, she saw a man more dazzling than the lights.

”Ms. Oliver, your reserved seat is right up ahead.”

”Alright, thank you.”

Nicole lifted her skirt and walked briskly towards that direction...

Upon reaching the table, she immediately sketched a perfectly-timed smile and greeted the man in the seat, ”August, sorry to keep you waiting. I just came back from the set and lost track of time.”

”It’s alright.” August Oliver, with a faint expression, picked up the menu, ”Let’s order first.”

”Okay.”

Nicole pulled out a chair to sit down, deliberately chose the same dishes as the person opposite her, then put down the menu, reached for the water glass on the table, and took a small sip. Slowly lifting her head, finding her most flattering angle under the light, she softly said, ”August, I never thought your identity was so mysterious, associated with the Oscar Family. When you suddenly disappeared, I was really worried about you, afraid something might have happened. Luckily, you’re alright.”

”I’ve heard from the manager, you helped the band a lot.” August’s handsome face showed signs of fatigue, swirling the glass in his hand, he casually said, ”You met with me today because you want me to help solve the trouble you’re in now, right?”

He came on too direct.

It completely disrupted Nicole Oliver’s plan to gradually steer the conversation toward the scandal.

She had no choice but to admit awkwardly, ”Yes, I am in a bit of trouble. So I wanted to see if you could help suppress the news. Of course, if it’s difficult, it’s fine if you don’t help. I just wanted to have a meal with you today, with no other intentions.”

Whether August took her explanation to heart or not, his jet-black eyes rested on her, causing Nicole Oliver’s heartbeat to quicken, then he said, ”You once helped me, so I can help you.”

When he first debuted, his looks attracted a lot of unwanted attention, including a big boss who insisted on making him accompany for drinks.

That day Nicole happened to be present, and for some reason, she intervened to help him once, warning him that the drink had something in it.

He narrowly escaped that incident, not falling into a trap.

Later on, when he disappeared, his manager found Nicole, and she used her connections to help Annan and the others resolve a lot of difficulties.

In short, Nicole helped him, and he hadn’t forgotten.

Upon receiving Nicole Oliver’s call today, he had someone investigate what had happened. He knew the entire story and understood that Nicole used Lena’s hand this time to scheme against Olivia Lewis. Essentially, Nicole wanted to harm Olivia, and he certainly didn’t want to involve himself with Nicole. However, Nicole indeed did him a favor, and also the band, which he couldn’t ignore.

Taking everything into account, he agreed to help.

The underlying implication of his words was that he could help her this time, and after that, they would be even.

It was up to Nicole Oliver to understand his meaning.
