Chapter 978 Scott heard Nicole‘s speech and agreed with it. He did not expect Nicole to have such a vision at such
a young age.
“Everyone, I think Miss Riddle has a point. Back then, our forefathers could stand on their own feet and struggle
hard for the sake of the nation, and this kind of hardworking spirit is very worthy of our learning. As long as we have
perseverance and determination, I believe that the manned flying car can definitely be realized, and all the hard
work will produce value by then. So we don‘t need to worry.” Scott calmly made a summary and statement.
“Now we vote by a show of hands. If we get a majority in favor, we will start the manned flying car project, and vice
versa, to cancel.”
Scott took the lead and raised his hand. Since he had raised his hand, those people from the companies that were
not as big as his looked at each other and also raised their hands. The result was that the majority was in favor. “I

officially launched in a month.”
Everyone applauded, and the seminar proceeded to the next agenda. People started to network in groups of three
or five. Nicole did not want to join them. So Harvey came
over. “Don‘t you want to go over and exchange ideas?” “No.You go ahead.” Nicole stood by the window, looking out
at the view. “Okay. You stay here to enjoy the scenery.” With that, Harvey headed into the crowd.
“Hello, Mr. Allen. My name is Harvey; Harvey Ellison.”
“Ahh, Mr. Ellison. I‘ve heard a lot about you.” “Mr. Ellison, did you come with Miss Riddle this morning? “Mr. Allen
glanced at Nicole, then asked Harvey.
“Yes.”
“Why doesn‘t Miss Riddle come over and talk? She looks bored standing by the window alone,” Mr. Allen said.
“She wants to enjoy the view.” Harvey glanced over at Nicole and then explained.
“Enjoy the view?”
“Yes.”
While Harvey was talking to Mr. Allen, a man of Nicole‘s age approached her with a glass of wine. “Hey, it sure is a
marvelous view from here.”
Nicole did not even look at him and continued to look out the window. She did not want to have any contact with
these business people at all.
Seeing that she was not looking at him, the man
introduced himself. “Hello, I‘m Ike. I heard your speech just now. I think you are full of charm, like a great general.”
“Like a great general? Is thát a way to describe a girl?” Nicole was suddenly amused by his wording.
“You look good when smiling.” Ike looked at Nicole with a twinkle in his eyes. Nicole curbed her smile and asked, “Is
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthis how people chat up girls these days?”
“Chat up girls? I think you‘re mistaken. It‘s networking time. I heard you represent Riddle Corporation and thought
I‘d come over and talk to you.” Ike explained. Nicole was indeed beautiful, but that was not the reason for his
conversation with her.
Nicole realized she had made a gaffe and apologized with embarrassment. “I‘m sorry. I can‘t believe I forgot.”
“You know Riddle Corporation?” Nicole looked at him with surprise, wondering how a foreigner knew about Riddle
Corporation, which did not seem to be famous.
“When I came here this morning , Mr. Harmon spoke a little about you, so I know a little about you,” Ike explained,
trying hard to speak in Hustuaburgian.
“No wonder.” Nicole nodded in acknowledgment.
“Miss Riddle, can you share some of your ideas about the manned flying car project?” Ike liked what Nicole had
said before. He had been engaged in research in this area, so he had great expectations for this project.
“I know little about this project, and I just said what came to mind.” Nicole did not want to talk too much with him
because she was not too interested in the project.
