Ferguson Corporation.Mitchell was a little confused. Eric had originally gone to sign the contract, so why did he change his mind at the last moment?Perhaps it had something to do with what Isaac said.Even Isaac had started to set his eyes on Nicole.Isaac really did not know his place.Eric sat in his chair with a cold face.“Has Sloan Corporation’s registration data been sent to the relevant departments?”Mitchell nodded.“Yes, I heard that the preparations have already started, and the soonest they’ll get the permit is in half a year. During this period, they probably won’t give up and will do a lot of preliminary preparations.”Eric’s gaze was sullen and cold as he snorted lightly.“Dream on!”Mitchell raised his eyes cautiously and looked at Eric.“President, are we not going to sign with them?”Eric’s face was expressionless, and he spoke in a cold voice.“No. They won’t be able to spread their roots smoothly anyway, and I don’t plan on letting them do so.”Mitc
Grant stiffened and immediately shook his head.“I’m going to watch a movie with your sister-in-law tonight. I’m not free!”Nicole was speechless.Back to the topic.Grant pondered for a moment. “Sloan Corporation wants to set up their brand in Atlanta. They’re bound to divert some customers away. You should be on your guard. Also, I heard that Isaac offended you at a party?”Nicole raised her brows. “Not really. I just taught him a lesson.”“Be careful, but there’s no need to hold back.”Nicole nodded. Those words were quite nice to hear.She waved her hand. “I’ll get going then...”Grant nodded. Then, he suddenly remembered something and called her back. He took out a navy-blue gift box from the side.“Here.”Nicole was confused. She took it and opened it up.Wow!It was a huge ruby bracelet. The color was indescribably beautiful.Nicole was shocked, and a smile immediately surfaced on her calm face.“Thank you, my best brother...”Grant said, “You’re welcome.”“But
Yvette smiled. “Sean supported breaking off the marriage. He also wanted to marry me, but I refused. What benefits would I get to marry him besides whitewashing the fact that he had an affair? I’m not that stupid. We’re all just playing around. We’ll be together if we see fit and break up if we’re unsuitable anymore. What’s the point of so much entanglement?”Nicole took a deep breath. She saw that Yvette’s expression was not very happy.Forget it. Yvette made up her mind, so she would not listen to anything that anyone else said.She pulled Yvette’s hand. “Forget it, stop thinking about it. Don’t hold back today. I’ll pay for anything you like!”Yvette blinked. “Seriously?”“Of course. Have you seen a stingy rich woman before? Pick whatever you want!”Nicole patted her chest and assured Yvette. It was not like she could not afford it anyway. What was important was that Yvette was happy!Yvette pulled her excitedly. “Then I won’t hold back!”Then, she rushed into a luxury store
Nicole took the card in a complicated mood and put it in her purse.Since she already used the card, it would be unreasonable to give him back the money.“Please come again...”Yvette and Nicole left the store together.The staff politely sent them away.A long sigh of envy sounded from behind. “Her starting point is our end goal. The cards in Ms. Stanton’s bag are enough for me to spend for a few lifetimes. I’m so envious!”“Exactly...”......After leaving the mall, Nicole called Clayton.He picked up after a few rings.“Little Nicole...”Nicole was speechless.Yvette was startled by that name. “Hahahahaha... Mr. Sloan, that pet name is a little too odd!”There was silence on the phone for half a second.Clayton did not say anything.Except for the echoing sound of Yvette’s laughter, no one else spoke.Clayton did not expect someone else to be there.Nicole was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a hole to burrow into.Clayton was really going too far recently. H
In the corner.Ava’s face looked very aggrieved, but she was trying hard to suppress her grievances. Her eyes were still red.When Nicole saw this, she smiled and did not say anything. She naturally would not take the initiative to greet Ava.Their relationship had not reached that level.Camron looked at Nicole very warmly.“Nicole, you and Yvette haven’t come to my place for a long time.”Yvette and Nicole grew up together, so naturally, she often visited the places of these acquaintances like Nicole.Yvette smiled cordially.“Uncle Camron, you have to make an appointment in advance to see us. We’re busy with our businesses...”Her melodramatic opening made Camron burst out in laughter.“You youngsters are all very busy and rarely have time to get together. That’s why I’ve specially sent an invitation to invite you here...”Camron’s eldest son greeted them very warmly.“Ms. Stanton, Ms. Quimbey, I don’t know if these are to your liking. If they aren’t, we’ll change the di
Camron looked at Ava with grave eyes.“You should apologize. If you did something wrong, you should bear it yourself.”There was silence for a few seconds.Nicole faintly looked at the wine on the table, rippling under the overhead light. The reflected light was extremely bright and beautiful.Everyone’s eyes were on Ava, looking at how uncomfortable she was.Ava was very slick and smooth in the past. She naturally knew that right now, the best thing to do was to apologize and say some pleasant words. That way, this matter would come to pass.Although it was very humiliating, compared to dignity, it was more important to be able to stay in this circle.Now, Ava started to struggle.After the people in the circle knew that Ava had offended Nicole, they no longer wanted to be associated with her.Ava did not want to go out and work for others, and her family business did not accept her.It was hardest to stay in a position that was neither here nor there.However, at that mome
Nicole's words made the atmosphere cold.She originally did not want to make the scene so awkward.However, since Ava shed all pretense of cordiality, there was no need for Nicole to maintain the most basic courtesy any longer.Ava failed Camron’s painstaking effort. That was her problem.Nicole smiled and gave Camron an apologetic look.“I’m afraid I won’t be able to join you for dinner anymore, Uncle Camron, but I appreciate your feelings. I won’t forget how your son and daughter took care of me in the past.”Then, Nicole stood up.Camron sighed. His face was disheveled, but he also stood up after her.“Thank you, Nicole.”He thanked her for her generosity.Her last sentence was undoubtedly to assure the Dudley family’s son and daughter that Ava’s matter would not implicate them.This was already the best outcome.Nicole did not look at Ava, who was sitting there with a pale face, and simply left the place with Yvette.How satisfying!Yvette followed her out and held ba
Camron’s son did not even want to maintain the most basic relationship with Ava.In any case, for a family like theirs, it was better the fewer children there were.His relationship with his sister was not bad. They had found a balance in the distribution of Camron’s property.He was in charge of the company, and his sister held the shares. Liquid and non-liquid assets were also shared equally.If Ava was added to the equation, it would harm their interests.Thus, they did not welcome Ava’s arrival.There was no affection nor any merit, and Ava had a huge pile of scandalous material. It was obvious that she was here for the money.If the Dudley family was poor, would Ava still want to be acknowledged by them?Ava panicked.Camron’s son clearly did not want to put on a play of brotherly and sisterly love.“Dad, the facts are right in front of you. Don’t push the whole family into the fire for the sake of one person. Since Ava offended the Stanton family, everyone in the busine
