Nicole’s belly grew bigger by the day.Nicole felt uneasy because she had never been a mother and had no experience in this aspect. Thus, she paid extra attention to every change in her body.In her last trimester of pregnancy, Nicole became a little temperamental. Even she herself felt that she was being unreasonable.When Nicole was alone with Clayton, she felt annoyed looking at him, but when he was not in sight, she felt angry.Due to that, Floyd picked Nicole up and took her back to the Stanton Mansion.Clayton did not say anything, packed his clothes, and stayed with Nicole.Floyd chattered with the butler all day long, but Nicole somehow felt relieved.Clayton also felt relieved. He would only go to the office once every few days. Most of the time, he would just work from home.The company was left to Kai, so Floyd was mentally prepared to lose money.Floyd had the least expectations for Kai. He only wanted Kai to keep the company afloat without going bankrupt until Gra
Kai’s words left Nicole speechless.It did seem to make sense.Julie could not help but let out a light laugh on the side. She looked at Kai.“Yeah. Dominic is so devoted to you, so all you have to do is sit back and count your money. Now you know that running a company isn’t that simple, huh?”When Julie said that, Kai wanted to retort but did not dare to. He just pouted his lips and sat next to her looking aggrieved.The anger Kai felt just now was almost gone.Nicole shook her head and looked at Kai.“How could there be anything in this world that could trouble my third brother? Kai, don’t die of rage just after a few days in the office…”Kai rolled his eyes. If Nicole was not pregnant, Kai would beat her up.“Do you think I’m a fool?!”He then looked at Julie aggrievedly.“You don’t believe in me either?”Julie smiled. Recently, she had been following Nicole’s routine at home, so had a rosy face and a great complexion.“Of course, I believe you. Big Brother and Lil N a
Julie looked at Nicole speechlessly.“You’re going to give birth in a few months. Isn’t it a little too late to be scared now?”Nicole pursed her lips and touched her chest. She could feel her heart pounding. “Well, I didn’t expect it to be so scary at first! I kinda regret it now…”Of course, Nicole did not dare to tell Clayton this.Thinking of Clayton, Nicole suddenly remembered.“You should go in first. I’ll give Clayton a call.”Julie let go of Nicole’s hand. They were already at the door to the ward, so they were just a few steps apart.“At this time, you still want to talk to Mr. Sloan? You’re just pregnant, but you have to report every little thing to him? The Global Hospital Research Association should definitely have your name on it!”Nicole ignored Julie’s sarcastic remark and anxiously told her to hurry inside.Julie stopped teasing Nicole and turned to go inside to see Aida.Nicole called Clayton and only told him that Aida was in labor.She did not say anything
Aida could not help but laugh a little. When Grant saw this, he took it over and put it in front of her.“Take it. If you don’t, all of us will get lectured.”Knowing that it was Floyd’s good intention, Aida did not refuse.Grant also gave Aida gifts from time to time, so she received them as she should.When Aida opened the box, she was stunned.There was a small jewelry box that had a set of emerald jewelry. The emerald was so green and clear. It was worth a lot of money.Such high-quality emerald was generally a collector’s favorite and would be worth at least a few hundred million dollars.Underneath the jewelry was a real estate deed worth tens of millions of dollars.This was such a generous gift that left them astonished.Grant also saw it and could not help but raise an eyebrow. His cold face carried some surprise.Aida was even more stunned. It would be fine if this was just ordinary jewelry, but the things in this box were too expensive.“Dad…”Nicole peeled an or
Floyd was still a little surprised to see Clayton.“Didn’t you go to the office?”Clayton accompanied Nicole every day and rarely took the time to go to the office. How did he appear again so soon?Clayton glanced at Nicole and smiled.“I heard that Aida was about to give birth. I was afraid that you guys would be too busy, so I came over to take care of Nicole.”Floyd took a deep breath.He looked at Nicole with a helpless gaze.This daughter of his was truly clingy!Luckily, Clayton was a good-tempered man. Otherwise, it would be annoying.Grant also laughed and shook his head.“Just as well, you should take Lil N back to rest. It won’t be so soon here…”Nicole shook her head. “I want to stay here and see Aida. Otherwise, I’ll be a mess in a few months if I’m not familiar with the process.”Everyone was dumbfounded and laughed.Evening.Floyd was about to leave first when Aida suddenly screamed in pain.Grant ran over at once.A minute later, his face changed drastica
On the road.Yvette complained to Nicole.“I just realized that being a powerhouse in senior management isn’t fun at all! It’s not at all like the old days. Lance surprisingly trusts me with a lot of important projects at once. Do you know how important those projects are? If I lose any one of them and my mother finds out, she’ll probably come over and beat me to death!”Nicole could not help but laugh. “Now, you have real power in your hands. Isn’t this what you’ve always wanted?”Yvette pouted her lips. “I don’t even dare to say that this isn’t what I want now. I work overtime every day until past midnight. I feel so aggrieved! But once I go out and see the lights still on in Lance’s office, I don’t feel so bad anymore…”Nicole said, “I heard from Kai that you have some projects with him and that you did a good job! Mr. Sheldon is certainly assured enough for you to handle the important things.”Yvette sighed and looked toward the sky.“But it’s too tiring!”However, Yvette c
The lounge was quite simple with quite a few staff members coming and going. However, no one noticed Nicole’s sudden appearance.Nicole wore a wide trench coat and disguised herself as someone who came to visit the set.Julie went out to talk to the director before she had time to come back. “Coincidentally, you have two old friends here. Do you want to meet them?”Nicole raised her eyebrows. “Old friends?”Julie nodded. “Harvey and Fabian, the male lead and supporting character in this show.”Nicole’s jaw dropped in shock. “These two people are filming the same show?”Julie nodded naturally. “Of course! What a rare sight, huh?”Nicole was secretly amazed.Although she did not pay much attention to the entertainment industry, she also knew about the fallout between these two actors.It was not only because of Falcon Entertainment’s change in focus but also because Fabian broke his contract and left. Fabian also failed to compete with Harvey for the Best Actor Award, wh
Nicole nodded and reached out to shake Fabian’s hand.She knew that she should be courteous and forgive Fabian, who admitted his fault.Nicole then smiled at Harvey, who looked stunned. “Mr. Sage?”She heard that after Harvey’s net worth soared, he did not make any unreasonable demands with Falcon Entertainment. Instead, he proposed a one-year betting agreement.Harvey intended to use $500 million to purchase shares of Falcon Entertainment.Not much, just ten percent.Nicole had to admit that Harvey was really a very smart person.An actor only had limited years in their prime. Those who were too popular when they were young would not be able to stand starring in older roles after their youth was gone.This was also cruel to the fans of the big screen and would easily cause the actors’ popularity to fade away.Thus, actors would turn behind the scenes, as investors, producers, and so on.There were also many actors who started their own companies and studios to train newcomer
