Chapter 1109 Banquet
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
Chapter 1110 Throwing Caution to the Wind
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
Chapter 1111 Send Her Away
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
Chapter 1112 Take the Money and Leave
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
Chapter 1113 She’s Not the Only Child
Ava’s eyes gradually became miserable and panicked. She wanted to rush in and apologize to Camron face to face.However, she was stopped by the butler.“Ms. York, stop wasting your efforts. Just think of it as the Dudley family letting you down!”Ava choked on her sobs, almost becoming hysterical.“Why? They lost me when I was a child. Are they going to throw me away when I’m grown up too?”Ava looked at the luxurious villa in the distance and could not stop her tears from flowing out.“I want to ask my father face-to-face. Why is he doing this to me? Shouldn’t he pay back what he owes me?”The butler sighed. “Ms. York, the Dudley family has more than one child. Ms. Dudley and Young Master Dudley have been very close since childhood, and they’re extremely popular in the circle both in terms of character and ability. However, after you came back, your reputation has already dragged down the Dudley family.”Ava’s body stiffened, and her lips trembled.“Dragged them down? They gr
Chapter 1114 Compensation
Ava felt that it was no good, but she also knew that it was better than not getting a penny at all.She bit her lip and hesitated for five seconds before taking the check and leaving.The butler watched her go, narrowed his eyes, and went back to report to Camron.“Ms. York has taken the money and left.”Camron paused. There was an indescribable look of disappointment on his face.If Ava had chosen to stay and work hard on her own, Camron would have helped her from the shadows.Unfortunately, this daughter who came back to him was too shallow to see anything but money.“Forget it. Send someone to watch her get on the plane. Just make sure she’s safe. Don’t worry about the rest.”“Understood.”It took him all night to come up with this method.In order to save the whole Dudley family, Camron could only give up this daughter.Although he felt guilty, Ava’s performance during this time did not move him much.Affection needed to be cultivated.Compared to his son and daughter,
Chapter 1115 Misjudged
J&L Corporation’s project came to an end. Clayton had to personally coordinate the series of formalities that needed to be gone through in Europe. After all, it was he who proposed the project in the first place.Nicole sent Clayton to the airport in the evening.It was clearly very convenient to go back and forth, but she still had a slight feeling of reluctance to let him leave.Clayton smiled faintly and held her hand as they walked in. He tightened her jacket for her at the gate.“I’ll be back soon.”Nicole nodded.“Remember to miss me every day too,” Clayton added.Nicole was speechless.What a mushy man!Nicole smiled as Clayton tucked a lock of hair behind her ear.“Remember to call me and text me! I’ll reply as soon as I see them.”Nicole nodded and pushed him to the boarding gate.“I know. Hurry up and go. Go early and come back early.”Clayton smiled helplessly and reached out with a slight force to pull her into his arms.Nicole paused but did not push him away
Chapter 1116 We’re Suitable for Each Other
Eric blocked Nicole’s path.He looked down at her with a dark and obscure gaze.“Nicole, you haven’t told me the answer.”Nicole looked up at him blankly.“What answer?”“Why him? If you can be with him, why not me?”Eric did not take to heart whether it was Clayton’s status or position or ability.However, that person who was inferior to him in every way took away his beloved woman.Nicole was silent for a moment after she heard him.She looked at him quietly. The current Eric Ferguson in front of her was like a completely different person compared to the Eric Ferguson she knew before the divorce.His indifference and detachment felt like he was far away from her.However, she was not used to it.Comparing the two versions of his personality, she only felt the impression of the past Eric Ferguson became stronger instead.She narrowed her eyes and looked at him.“There’s no reason. I’m with him because I feel like we’re very suitable for each other. We’re very happy toget
