Inside the car.Julie could not help but speak up. “Lil N, Eric Ferguson’s attitude seems a bit strange. Does he like you?”Nicole sneered and remembered what Eric said to Gerard Lichman back then.“How is that possible? Do you think that Jenny Lynch’s talk of a marriage alliance is groundless? If someone hadn’t mentioned it, how would she have the guts to present herself as Eric Ferguson’s fiancée?”Julie frowned. “Right… But... The Fergusons don’t need a marriage alliance with HS Corporation, right?”“Whatever…” Kai sneered.Kai sent Julie back and drove Nicole back to the Stanton mansion.The next morning, Nicole heard a noise downstairs before she got out of bed.She walked downstairs with squinted eyes and heard her father cursing at Kai with a resounding voice.“You’re the worst! Even Tigger is better than you! Look how you got your sister into trouble!”Nicole rubbed his eyes and arrived downstairs. “What’s wrong?”Mr. Anderson showed them the morning headlines.It w
Ferguson Corporation.Eric Ferguson looked at the latest gossip on the internet with furrowed brows.Even Mitchell did not expect this turn of events.This time, Eric should be happy because he had one less opponent, right?However, Mitchell did not see a hint of joy on Eric’s face. “Mr. Ferguson?”Eric’s face was sullen. ‘I should’ve thought of this… Kai didn’t have any scandal with anyone in the entertainment industry before… He was just nice to Nicole alone, so openly at that. Turns out Kai’s also Floyd Stanton’s son! If we didn’t get a divorce, Kai would’ve been my brother-in-law!’It was pretty surprising.Eric felt much better about this. However, when he recalled his attitude towards Kai yesterday, he felt a little regretful.If only Mitchell could read Eric’s thoughts, Mitchell would probably choke on his water.Eric’s eyebrows sank coldly. “What else?”“Edmund Lynch, the Chairman of HS Corporation, is here saying that he has something to discuss with you.”“Let him
Edmund Lynch frowned in shock. “What? What’s going on?”“I just... I just spread a little rumor about Nicole and Kai on the internet. I didn’t expect them to involve the police! Dad, do something! Suppress this! I’m a celebrity, so I can’t get arrested...”Jenny Lynch admitted to everything.She never imagined that Nicole would be so ruthless or that Kai would be Nicole’s brother.Now, she had really stirred up a hornet’s nest!Edmund Lynch’s mind was a mess. All of a sudden, he panicked, turned around, and wanted to seek Eric’s help.As a result, Edmund was stopped by Mitchell.Mitchell politely extended his hand. “Mr. Lynch, the President is in a video conference and can’t be disturbed. If you please…”His attitude was firm, leaving no room for negotiation.Edmund was helpless and left. He called Tobias Stone before heading to Stanton Tower.At this moment, Edmund could not care less about hiding the fact that he and Tobias Stone had colluded.He thought that as long as he
It did not take long for Jenny Lynch’s rumors to spread like wildfire on the internet.It was shocking that a big movie star who usually never fought for anything would do such a thing.What most people were angry about was that Jenny took the netizens as fools, so most of them gloated at Jenny when she was in trouble.In an instant, all of Jenny’s partnerships and endorsement deals were suspended. She even had to pay penalties for causing damage.Since this matter could no longer be covered up, Jenny had no choice but to apologize for her mistake. She recorded an apology video and announced that she would quit the entertainment industry to inherit her family business.Thus, Jenny’s family background was also dug up with all kinds of comments surrounding it.Nicole did not expect that Jenny would be so quick to apologize.Jenny was smart to retreat nicely with some leeway instead of completely exhausting her fans’ trust in her.In a blink of an eye, Ian Carter’s birthday arrive
“It’s true! Ingrid also saw it. Nicole bought the Patek Philippe that you like. You just need to wait for your gift! Hahaha…” Keith could not help but share what he saw with Eric.This knowledge made Eric a little surprised and depressed.Eric suppressed the joy in his heart and pretended to be calm. His voice was deep as he said, “Alright, I’m hanging up.”Originally, Eric did not plan to celebrate his birthday this year. However, now it seemed like he needed to host a big party so that he could invite Nicole.In the previous years, Eric had always celebrated his birthday with a few close friends.Eric recalled that before the divorce, Nicole seemed to look forward to celebrating his birthday, but back then, he did not like to be alone with her, so he had always politely refused. However, she still prepared gifts for him every year.When Eric thought of this, he immediately called Mitchell. “Where are the gifts from my previous birthdays?”The sudden question stunned Mitchell
Nicole hung up the phone without giving Eric the chance to retort.That was her answer.What did his birthday have to do with her anyway?Eric’s heart sank.However, when Eric thought about what Keith told him earlier, that Nicole had bought a gift for him, she would probably attend.He felt much better after some thought.Eric’s phone call yesterday did not affect the quality of Nicole’s sleep.It was raining last night, so the sound of rain was the best lullaby.In the morning, the sky was still a bit cloudy. Nicole pushed open the door of the balcony and felt the cool morning breeze rushing in.At that moment, Ian Carter called. Nicole picked it up at once and said, “Happy birthday, Carter! Wishing you a lifetime of prosperity and longevity!”Ian laughed out loud. “Lil N, are you paying tribute to your grandpa?”Nicole snorted. “Whatever! I would’ve beaten you up if you’re not the birthday boy.”She turned on the speakerphone and went to get dressed. She put on some ligh
Upon hearing this, Keith and Eric stood up and walked over.There was no one at the entrance.“What are you on about?” Keith scolded the person who broadcasted fake news.The man who shouted earlier was startled. He saw Eric’s grim face, smiled apprehensively, and then took out his phone.“My friend just sent me a video of Nicole playing poker. She won a lot...”Before he finished his sentence, his phone was snatched over.Eric clicked on the video and saw several men and women gathered around playing poker. Instead of chips, there were car keys, jewelry, and even gold bars on the table. It was clear how intense this game of poker was. It was definitely much more exciting compared to this birthday party!Everyone in the video was dressed in luxury clothes. Nicole’s limited-edition gray-blue pearl inlay dress made her look so stunning. It was impossible to look away from her.Ian Carter and Julie Nixon sat next to Nicole looking like they were soft-playing. Nicole just sat there
Nicole said, “Ms. Luna?”Luna proudly raised her chin. “It’s rare that you can remember me, Ms. Stanton. I heard that marriage alliances here are made as long as both families are of equal backgrounds. Is that rich businessman just now your marriage partner? Although he’s not very good-looking and a bit older, I guess he must be quite rich. Otherwise, how could he match a noble and elegant person like you, Ms. Stanton?”She did not pay attention to the dynamics online about Medianian gossip and trends. Thus, Luna did not know about Kai’s real identity.Jenny Lynch only called Luna to tell her that Nicole had retaliated, so Luna came here in a huff.Julie wanted to go up and say something, but she was stopped by Nicole.Nicole’s gaze was cold as she looked at Luna. “Don’t think that I won’t touch you because you’re a foreigner. Stay the hell away from me. Listening to your voice just makes me want to puke.”Luna’s face stiffened. She felt so humiliated.She took out the phone a
