However, not long after she left the private room, Mason caught up with her.
"Hey, Pretty Lady, is this how you treat someone who got you out of a pickle?" he yelled as he watched her leaving in a hurry.
Nicole stopped and turned to look toward Mason. Earlier in the room, she did not clearly observe his look. It was only now that they had cout from the room to a brighter corridor did she realize that he was actually a handsman.

"Thanks for helpingout today, President Schumacher," Nicole said politely.
Nicole reckoned Mason must be srespectable person since even Shaun, the Human Resource Department manager of Gardner Corporation behaved in a servile manner toward him. As such, she knew she did not have to go too far to thank him with money.
"Just callMason. Only outsiders will addressas President Schumacher." Taking a step forward, Mason approached Nicole and sized her up from head to toe.
Unlike the other women in the lounge, she did not wear any makeup today. There was an innocent demeanor on her delicate face, which made her look totally out of place in this venue and it actually gave one a pleasant feeling.
"Sure, Mr. Schumacher," Nicole called out strangely after she took a step back.

Then, he nodded and praised, "That's a sweet name. I'll remember you from now on." After getting her name, he did not ask her to continue staying. Instead, he waved her goodbye. "Miss Anderson, it's better to stay away from places like this in the future. It does not suit you." Then, he paused for a moment and winked at Nicole with a smile. "After all, you won't always be this lucky to bump into a handsman who swears by justice like me." Nicole remained silent for a moment. Despite Mason's rascal-like appearance, at least he was polite and did not behave in any way that crossed the line.
"Thank you." With that, she thanked him and left.

Seeing Nicole's return, Zachary lifted his head to glance at her. "Hey Nicole." Perceiving his weary look, a concerned Nicole asked, "Did something happen?" With downcast eyes, Zachary's sturdy body was drained with exhaustion. Rubbing his brows, he still talked in a gentle way despite his weariness.
"Yeah, there's indeed something." After that, she did not continue asking since she had known him for almost 4 years. Besides being a superior and subordinate, they were also friends too. Nevertheless, Nicole had never crossed the line and asked Zachary about his family affairs.

F&M Apparel was one of the leading enterprises in the fashion industry worldwide. The business had been thriving over these few years, so the price to acquire the business was definitely a huge amount too. As such, an ordinary person would not be able to afford it. "Yeah. It's my father," Zachary bitterly said.
In fact, this was the reason for his hustle over the past few days.
Nicole kind of understood the situation. He cfrom a wealthy family to begin with Although she NO had no idea what career Zachary's father had pursued, she could tell he must be extremely wealthy.
