The Divorced Billionaire Heiress novel Chapter 50

Samantha Lindt hated Nicole, but since
Nicole had something over her head,
Samantha dared not get into an all-out
fight with her.

“My experience in leading teams is no
less than those on the list, and my
performance is one of the best among
the senior managers. Vice President
Nicole, are you still holding a grudge
against me because of what happened
last time?”
Samantha was obviously a bit
discontented.

Nicole lowered her eyes and laughed. “No, I don’t hold a grudge against you, but I do remember that you were against
cooperating with J&L before this. I’m just afraid your attitude will affect our
cooperation, so…”

“I will comply with the company’s decision.” Samantha eagerly showed her allegiance.
Nicole gave her a perfunctory smile. “This
list has been announced at the board
meeting, so I’m afraid there’s no way to
change it now. Let’s talk about it next
time we have the chance.”
She had already started to pack up the
things on her desk, giving Samantha an
obvious signal that she was done with
this conversation
Samantha gritted her teeth and said, “I’m
sure it can still be changed. Vice
President Nicole, just wait and see.”
She then turned on her heels and left
Nicole’s office with confidence. Nicole’s

gaze was deep as she raised her
eyebrow. “Great! She took the bait.’
In the afternoon, Logan called Nicole’s
office phone. “Director Zielinski wants
you to meet him at his office.”

‘An old man that’s about to retire? Nicole
raised her eyebrows. “Sure.”
Aside from Grant and Logan, no one in
the company knew of Nicole’s real
identity. As the newly instated Vice
President, Nicole would like to see what
Micah Zielinski wanted to talk to her
about
Micah liked to engage in speculative
trading. He only became a member of
Stanton Corporation’s board of directors
through special means and had refused t
o let go ever since. However, he did not
have many shares in the company and
was not considered a threat, so they let

him be.
Nicole knocked on Micah’s office door
and heard a tired voice coming from
inside, “Come in.”
She smiled and went in “Mr. Zielinski, you
were looking for me?”
Micah’s eyes lit up when he saw her, but h
e suddenly thought of something and
instantly looked regretful.
“Come, sit down.” He pointed to the seat i
n front of him.
Nicole took a seat.
Micah smiled and coughed slightly. “Ms.
Nicole, you’re very pretty. No wonder
Grant was willing to disregard so many
objections and forcefully pushed you into
this position.”
Nicole’s smile deepened. ‘So…he didn’t
like that Grant’s backing me?’
She did not explain anything and just
smiled at him
Micah saw that she was not carrying on
the conversation and coldly snorted. “Do
you know that your position was originally
reserved for Samantha Lindt?”
‘Is he trying to scare me?’
Nicole paused for a moment and said, “M
s. Lindt is certainly capable, but I’m more
suitable for this position.”
Micah’s face instantly sank and
threatened her. “Young people who are
arrogant in the workplace and have no
respect for their elders will suffer.”
Nicole smiled and stood up. “Then I can
only prove myself with my capabilities. M
r. Zielinski, if there’s nothing else, I’ll take
my leave.”

“Nicole!” Micah was a little anxious. He
was dissatisfied with the direction of this
meeting and instructed, “Add Samantha
Lindt to J&L Corporation’s project team.”
Nicole’s smile widened. ‘It is really him…
Samantha Lindt’s backer is such a
miserable old man? Did she think that I’d
be intimidated by this old geezer? How
absurd!
Micah saw that Nicole only smiled
without a word. His face turned glum.“
Did you hear what I just said?”
“Yes…”
Micah’s expression eased slightly. Nicole
continued, “But I can’t do it.”
“What do you mean?”
“It won’t be fair to the others.”
“Nicole, do you think that you’re safe just

because you have Grant? Do you believe
that I’ll.” Micah was exasperated and
threatened her.
“Fire me? I don’t believe that the board
will fire me because of Samantha Lindt. 1
suppose Ms. Lindt didn’t tell you what!
have on her when she came crying to
you. Please tell her not to mess with me.”
Nicole swept a clear and cold glance at
the shocked Micah Zielinski, then stood u
p and walked out without hesitation.
As soon as she left Micah’s office, she
called Grant’s private number.
“What’s wrong, N?”
*There’s something fishy with Micah
Zielinski. Samantha Lindt is one of his
people. He must be the one who wanted

to prevent our cooperation with J&L
Corporation in the first place.”

Grant laughed and praised her. “You
caught on quick.”
“You already knew about it?”
“How could I not know of the dissent
among my company’s board of
directors?”
Nicole sighed in relief. “Then I’m relieved.”
“That old fox is not easy to deal with, so
I’ll handle him. You should just focus on
following up on J&L’s cooperation. By the
way, I heard that Eric Ferguson plans to
personally take charge of this project.”
Grant gave her a heads-up.
