Chapter 128 I Call the Shots
“Molly likes you a lot, so she must’ve uploaded your information into Tigger’s brain, hence this reaction. By the way, she’s also in J&L’s research team, so you’ll be able to meet her in a while.”Maverick nonchalantly tossed Tigger to Nicole, who carefully caught it.“Tigger, let’s go see Molly!”“I want The Great God to hold me…” Tigger struggled in Nicole’s arms and asked aggrievedly.Nicole could never refuse any of its requests, so she caught up to Maverick. “Second Brother…”Maverick was used to seeing such AI robots and was clearly not as obsessed as Nicole because he did not have much emotion to things he could manufacture. For him, it was just a machine.When they arrived at J&L’s lab, Tigger immediately became the crowd’s focus.“Little Traitor, did you miss us?”Tigger held his head high and gave a haughty grunt. “Who are you people?”The crowd was speechless.After that, someone took Tigger to Molly Stewart. Gerard Lichman then led their group of seven to the pred
Chapter 129 Stupid, Slow, and Untalented
The atmosphere was stagnant for a while. Fortunately, Eric Ferguson did not pursue it further. The topic changed to determine the project’s direction.The meeting lasted for more than an hour, and it had started to rain outside.When everyone went out, they ran into their cars one after another. Since the steps at the entrance were on low terrain, a pool of stagnant rainwater had accumulated there.Nicole walked out last. She was wearing her custom-made Manolos that were incredibly sleek and exquisite, so she hesitantly stood on the steps.Stanton Corporation’s Rolls-Royce parked not far from the steps. The driver could not get any closer even if he wanted to.Maverick noticed his sister’s expression.Since there was only one umbrella left, Maverick habitually took it and propped it over Nicole’s head. “Shall we?”He sounded like he was used to being servile to her.Nicole lowered her head and pointed her toes as she said with regret, “The diamonds on these shoes will fall off
Chapter 130 Papa, Mwah Mwah!
Gerard Lichman and Eric Ferguson walked over to Molly. Gerard said, “Molly, do you know the man beside Ms. Stanton?”Molly Stewart was still immersed in the fact that she had just seen The Great God Maverick lowering his stature and doing everything for Nicole. She felt envious yet found it rightful.‘They’re both such a match made in heaven!’ Molly thought.She subconsciously nodded her head, then shook it decisively a second later.“Nope!” ‘Nicole said to keep it a secret!’Eric narrowed his eyes. Molly picked up the suit jacket and umbrella on the ground, then turned and ran away. ‘I’m just a researcher and can’t deal with these business people!’Tigger looked left and right and was about to dial Nicole’s number with its built-in function when it was suddenly picked up with one hand.Eric frowned and stared at it, feeling that something was off about it.“Do you still recognize me?” His clear, cold voice carried such self-restraint.Tigger narrowed its eyes and kicked i
Chapter 131 Get the Hell Out of Here
Maverick looked down at his phone and frowned. He was extremely patient in correcting the formula sent to him by Molly Stewart as he was a perfectionist.To find a suitable place for Maverick, Nicole asked Yvette along to the nearest property sales office.The two ladies stopped in front of a property sales office when they saw one.“Is your family even short of houses? Stanton Corporation has so many properties, can’t you just pick one at random?” Yvette was puzzled.Nicole shook her head. “No, those properties are all very popular and high in demand, so the surrounding area must be very noisy. My second brother won’t like it.”This property sales office was elegant and quiet. It looked like it catered to a high-end crowd.“This is a property owned by Ferguson Corporation. Ms. Stanton, did you come to the wrong place?”A cold and familiar voice rang out behind her.Nicole turned around and met the woman’s eyes.‘Ha! Samantha Lindt?’Nicole raised her eyebrows and hooked the
Chapter 132 Because You’re My Ex-wife
Ferguson Corporation President’s Office.It was so quiet that even a pin drop could be heard.Eric tapped his fingers on the desk slowly, one after another, which made Mitchell’s nerves tense.He sat there with sunken eyes and said in a cold tone, “She went to the sales office to buy a house?”Mitchell stood there respectfully. “Yes, the sales staff personally confirmed it, and I’ve seen the surveillance footage. Ms. Stanton went with Ms. Quimbey. They’re still there.”Eric’s eyes were deep. After a few seconds, he got up and said in a clear voice, “Let’s go over and take a look.”Although Eric did not know why Nicole went there, he wanted to see for himself what she was up to.“Yes, sir,” Mitchell replied respectfully and could feel a heavy air enveloping Eric.Eric’s reaction was always unexpected whenever it involved Nicole.The sales manager introduced a few high-end boutique apartments and carefully asked, “Ms. Stanton, are you satisfied with this style? Are you living by
Chapter 133 Widowed Before Marriage
When the word “ex-wife” came out of his mouth, Eric Ferguson felt extremely uncomfortable in his heart.He could not describe that discomfort.“Which house do you like? I’ll buy it for you,” Eric said.Back then at the Share Fashion Show, Nicole had willfully asked Kai for a yacht. That scene was extraordinarily piercing to Eric’s eyes.Eric recalled that he had never given Nicole any gift before.If Nicole could accept his gift now, he might feel a lot better about himself.Nicole let out a light laugh like she had heard some kind of joke. However, there was no emotion in her eyes.“Buy it for me? Mr. Ferguson, you’re really generous. Are you always so generous to your ex?”Eric frowned slightly and was just about to speak, but Nicole did not give him the chance to explain. “You said so yourself that I’m your ‘ex-wife’. That means we no longer have anything to do with each other and I have no reason to accept your gift, lest your family tries to sling mud at me again saying
Chapter 134 Go Back to France
Keith was speechless and covered his face. He stood up, patted Eric’s shoulder, and sighed tiredly. “It’s not that I’m switching sides, but Nicole is straight-up wronged this time…”‘Nicole clearly hates Eric alone, so Wendy is just overthinking it and imagining herself as Nicole’s enemy. When did the dignified Wendy become like this? She’s too good at involving herself in drama!’ Keith sighed and walked away.Ingrid was still cursing Nicole incessantly, but it was not only because of Wendy.She hated Nicole and was jealous that Nicole had become the heiress of Stanton Corporation overnight. Since then, Nicole’s fame in the gentry circle skyrocketed.‘What about me?!’ Ingrid thought.Ingrid and Nicole’s status were completely reversed. Now, Ingrid was the lowly one.Everyone at home was mad at her and did not give her any pocket money anymore. It was all just because Nicole took the emerald pipe!‘Nicole completely messed up my life!’ Ingrid thought.“Shut up!” Eric chided in a
Chapter 135 Scandal or Gossip
Before it was over, another accident happened again.The photos of Eric entering and leaving the hospital were taken and spread widely on the internet.The headline of the news: “Mr. Ferguson’s new lover is in the hospital, suspected to be his mistress!”It was accompanied by a photo of Wendy Quade lying on the hospital bed and Eric Ferguson standing at the door, looking at her with deep affection.[It really looks like true love… That homewrecker is really shameless to think she can be his wife!][Rich people have no morals… That homewrecker had some skills though!][Goddess Nicole should just focus on her career and inherit her family fortune. All that matters is being rich by her own ability!][My hopes of them getting back together are officially crushed… There’s no hope of remarriage now, but fret not, Nicole, I’ll still love you forever!”[I’d like to ask if there’s a queue number to be President Nicole’s boyfriend?]......When Nicole woke up in the morning, she receiv
