Love Strategy: CEO He is Really Scheming！

Arlo Seys’ eyes were cold and profound, "Nicole, stand tall for me. If anyone creates a scene in front of you, deal with her first and then go home! Don’t endure it! You don’t need to endure; just make sure you don’t get hurt yourself."

"I understand, brother." Nicole smiled warmly.

Arlo didn’t say anything, turned around, and went into Grandpa’s room.

Nicole sighed heavily, an invisible pressure and agitation weighing on her heart, making her restless.

The next day, when Nicole received a call from her godmother, Celine Sutton, she had just spent the night watching over her grandfather, and her eyes suddenly widened.

"Godmother——-you arrived in City C?... Okay, I’ll come over later. I’ll treat you to some famous local dishes from City C for lunch."

After hanging up the phone, Nicole tidied herself up, put on some light makeup to cover her dark circles from a sleepless night, changed her clothes, grabbed her bag, and went out.

When Nicole arrived at City C’s city center, it was already two hours later due to heavy traffic.

After reaching the agreed location, Nicole parked her car and went to find Celine.

When she found Celine in the mall, Celine was trying on a dress.

"Godmother." Nicole smiled slightly at Celine, "Welcome to City C. By the way, where’s Godfather?"

"He went out with Joshua for some matters. I decided to find you first to keep me company. Nicole, as soon as you left last time, I couldn’t wait and followed Jose to City C." Celine held Nicole’s hand and laughed, twirling around, "Nicole, does this dress look good?"

Upon hearing the name ’Jose’, Nicole’s eyes lowered slightly, and she smiled faintly, "It looks good, Godmother. I’ll accompany you to shop around a bit more. I’ve already reserved a restaurant, and we can go eat later."

"Alright."

Nicole accompanied Celine and shopped through two layers of the mall, which took about two hours. They carried two bags of goods, and when they reached the reserved restaurant, they called Joshua, asking Joshua and Stuart to come over for the meal.

The four of them had a joyful meal together, feeling like a family.

As they left the restaurant, they ran into Andrea Greenwood entering with a group, seeming to be there for a meal.

"Ha, Nicole, have you changed boyfriends again? Has Steven been replaced? Your skills are truly impressive; you can find a backup guy so quickly." Andrea glanced at Nicole with contempt.

Andrea apparently mistook Joshua as Nicole’s new boyfriend and saw Nicole dining with the Floyds as a meeting with the parents.

Andrea’s gaze made Celine a bit uncomfortable, and she frowned at Andrea, "You seem to have some hostility toward Nicole."

It wasn’t a question but a statement; the hostility in her eyes was too obvious.

Andrea glanced at the woman speaking on Nicole’s behalf, "You must be the mother of Nicole’s current boyfriend. Well, keep your eyes wide open and see clearly that the woman your son has found is second-hand, unwanted cast-offs!"

"Andrea, don’t go too far!" Nicole’s eyes turned cold as she glanced at Andrea, filled with a warning tone.

"What, afraid I’ll ruin your match? Nicole, your tactics are really impressive, quickly switching to another man to seduce; it really opens my eyes. Brother Jose doesn’t want you, yet you can find a new catch so quickly, truly impressive." Andrea’s eyes smiled, filled with contempt.

"Jose Floyd’s woman?" Joshua glanced at Andrea, who was ruining his mood, really feeling uncomfortable, and asked Nicole beside him.

Nicole pressed her lips slightly and softly affirmed.

Having godfather and godmother witness Andrea humiliating her made Nicole feel a bit embarrassed; no one wants their family to see them being insulted by outsiders because it causes worry.
