After getting into the car, Nicole spoke softly, "Good morning, Adolph. Let's go."
"Right away," Adolph replied, starting the car and steering toward Apex Corp's headquarters.
Back at the hotel, Jared hung around the room. His sole purpose on this trip was to be with Nicole; he
had no work lined up.
Jared's eyes took on a cold glint as he was standing by the windows.
After a brief silence, he dialed Zane's number. "Zane, they're making their moves."
"Got it. I'll arrange assistance and share some new leads. Let's meet," Zane responded.
"Alright," Jared ended the call.
After he stowed away his phone, his gaze out the window hardened even more.

Meanwhile, Nicole and Adolph reached Apex Corp's headquarters.

"Please wait; Mr. Martinez will be here soon," the
receptionist informed Nicole.
"Thanks," Nicole nodded and took a seat, Adolph standing behind her.
Soon, footsteps approached from outside the door.
Nicole looked up as a scholarly-looking middle-aged man entered.
"Welcome to Apex Corp, Ms. Riddle," Reggie Martinez greeted her.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Martinez," Nicole stood up, responding politely.
"Have a seat," Reggie invited her. "It’s an honor to have you here in person."
Nicole nodded, smiling. "I'm honored too. Let's hope we can come to an agreement."
"I'm looking forward to it," Reggie said with anticipation.
Without delay, Nicole handed him the prepared documents." This is our show of sincerity."
When Apex Corp asked Nicole to discuss the project in person, she had one condition: Reggie himself
must be present. This symbolized mutual sincerity, and naturally, she came prepared with a
collaboration plan to meet Apex Corp's satisfaction.
As Reggie delved into the documents, his expressions danced between frowns, smiles, and head
shakes, making it challenging to decipher his thoughts.
Nicole keenly observed Reggie's every move, narrowing her eyes slightly.
It was clear that Reggie wasn't displeased with her proposal, but there was an unmistakable hesitation
lingering in his demeanor.
"Mr. Martinez," Nicole chimed in, "While I believe my plan is solid, if you have any thoughts, let's
discuss them."
Confident in her proposal yet uncertain about Apex Corp's stance, Nicole aimed to gauge Reggie's
attitude.

After a moment of contemplation, Reggie turned to his secretary, whispered something, and the
secretary left the room.
Facing Nicole again, Reggie grinned. "Please be patient; just give me a moment."
"Sure," Nicole replied, maintaining a calm and graceful smile.
A hint of appreciation flashed in Reggie's eyes. "You're indeed extraordinary; no wonder you're the
master of two Crests."
"It's just luck," Nicole replied modestly, genuinely attributing it to her good fortune.
Reggie laughed heartily. "Such luck isn't something everyone has."
Truly, it seemed to be a rarity in the world.
Nicole raised an eyebrow slightly. "So, Mr. Martinez, you insisted on me coming in person mainly
because of the two
Crests?"
Reggie shook his head with a smile. "What if I said I just wanted to meet the owner of the two Crests?
Would you believe me?"
