Nicole subconsciously looked up. When she heard what Ian said, she laughed unconsciously.Two people on the second floor saw this scene. Eric’s eyes became gloomy. He put down the glass of wine in his hand and went downstairs without hesitation.“Ferg! Don’t make a scene!” Keith hurriedly spoke. Otherwise, what could explain Eric’s current behavior?Coincidentally, the music downstairs came to a stop. The artists on stage bowed and everyone gave them a round of applause.The other performers went down one after another while Luna stayed onstage. Luna looked at Nicole, who was not far away, and smiled meaningfully.Julie sensed that something was wrong and approached Nicole. “Is Luna trying to make a scene?”Nicole laughed insouciantly. “Since she’s asking for it, don’t stop her…”Julie raised her eyebrows and was relieved to know that Nicole noticed it.On stage.“Hello everyone, my name is Luna. I’m truly honored to be here today. I’d like to wish Second Young Master Carter a
“Mr. Ferguson, what are you trying to do?” Ian Carter said with dissatisfaction because Eric just ruined such a romantic moment.‘So what if he’s Eric Ferguson? I won’t let him get his way!’ Ian thought. Eric did not even care about Ian and only stared intently at Nicole with a deep and dark gaze.The Patek Philippe in her hand was dazzling, but Eric had never felt more hatred for this watch than at this moment, so much so that he wanted to throw out his entire collection of this brand of watches into the trash.Nicole frowned and twisted her wrist away from Eric’s big hand.She looked at him coldly. “Mr. Ferguson, what’s the matter?”Eric’s lips were tightly pressed into a straight line. He was just about to speak, but Nicole did not give him the chance. “Mr. Ferguson, save whatever you want to say for later. This is Second Young Master Carter’s birthday party, so you don’t want to steal the limelight, right?”As she said that, Nicole smiled and carefully put the Patek Phili
Keith put away his smile apprehensively. The corners of his lips twitched. “Ahem… Uh... I didn’t expect this to happen either…”Keith thought, ‘Ingrid’s the one who misled me to think in that direction in the first place! I didn’t think that Nicole would be so heartless either. That scene earlier was simply a slap in Eric’s face!’Meanwhile, the two ladies walked backstage while talking and laughing. Julie and Nicole casually found a dressing room and walked in, just in time to see someone coming out after getting changed.It was Luna.Luna stiffened slightly when she saw Nicole. She walked up to Nicole and was just about to speak when the Carter family’s butler came in with some bodyguards.The butler looked at Nicole and bowed respectfully to greet her. “Ms. Stanton, please excuse me. I have to take care of a little matter. It will be settled in a few minutes.”Nicole and Julie glanced at each other and nodded. “Go ahead.”The butler nodded at the two burly bodyguards behi
Nicole and Julie went back to the banquet hall. Everyone started to mingle and laugh with each other. It was as if that little episode earlier did not exist at all.Knowing Nicole’s identity, no one dared to force her to drink. They only exchanged some pleasantries and kept their distance.Nicole felt a little tired, so she walked to a small balcony where it was quiet and peaceful. She looked out through the window and saw the glimmering lights reflecting on a lake not far away. She could also smell a nice floral fragrance.Just when she finally felt relaxed, she heard footsteps approaching.“Nicole, why are you here?”It was Keith Ludwig.Nicole’s relaxed face instantly had a hint of displeasure. She cast a cold sidelong glance at him. “Do I need your permission to be somewhere?”‘Otherwise, stop being so nosy!’Keith braced himself and decided to go over to say a few words for his friend. “Nicole, I didn’t mean that. That watch earlier... Why didn’t you get it for Eric? He
Nicole thought, ‘Eric Ferguson is telling me about the lost ring just to stab me in the heart, huh? He’s really cruel… But, after getting used to being stabbed so many times, my heart is now as hard as a rock.’Eric’s eyebrows furrowed deeper. He was just about to say something when Ian Carter rushed over from not far away after noticing the movement here. “My Goddess Nicole…”Hearing this name, Nicole could not help but smile.The sad memory that was evoked by Eric Ferguson suddenly became insignificant.It was not worth it getting immersed in the past sadness.Ian came over and naturally wrapped his arm around Nicole’s shoulders. He glanced sideways at Eric, full of wariness.“We’re short of one person. I especially saved the spot for you. Wanna go in and play a few rounds?”If it was ten minutes ago, Nicole was down to play, but now, she was no longer in the mood.Nicole hooked her lips and smiled faintly. “Nah, I’m a little tired, so I’m going home.”“Then I’ll send you ho
Word got out that one of the companies under Stanton Corporation was selecting a spokesperson for men’s accessories.Thus, many agencies wanted to recommend their artists for the job.After all, Stanton Corporation had very high standards and strict requirements for selecting a spokesperson, so being selected would prove their status in the circle.Stanton Corporation.Nicole looked over the photos of so many artists that she felt a little dazzled.Logan, who was at the side, was in deep thought for a moment. He then told her about the news he had just heard.“President, HS Corporation bailed Jenny Lynch out today and subtly instated her as Vice President of HS Corporation. Luna has been repatriated.”‘Bailed out?’ Nicole raised her eyebrows. She was not really surprised about Luna’s repatriation because that was a piece of cake for the Carter family.Bailing out Jenny was also easy with HS Corporation’s ability.After all, Jenny was not guilty of a huge, unforgivable crime.
The next day at the press conference.Fabian went to the venue, which was surrounded by fans at the entrance.Beforehand, no one was informed that Nicole would attend this press conference.Thus, her arrival was a pleasant surprise.Nicole entered through the back door. As soon as she appeared, the crowd cheered in surprise.After all, Nicole in the same frame with Fabian was enough to draw everyone’s attention.As soon as Nicole entered, the designer and the company representative stood up to greet her.She smiled and found a corner to sit down quietly.Even so, Nicole was still the focal point.Since this was also live-streamed, it caused a heated reaction online.[President Nicole is so beautiful! Please just make a debut!][This couple is so soothing to the eye!][I finally managed to pre-order a bracelet! That was tough…]......Ferguson Corporation.Eric Ferguson looked at the huge screen in his office that was displaying Stanton Corporation’s live press conference
Jenny Lynch took two steps back in a panic and almost fell to the ground.Before Jenny could stand firm, Luna pounced on her again.“When you used me to deal with Nicole, why didn’t you tell me that Nicole is the heiress of Stanton Corporation? Their family is the real giant in the industry! My family’s company used so much effort to get into business with Stanton Corporation in Korea, but you ruined it all! You even ruined my future!” Luna yelled without caring about the impact of her words.The reporters did not let go of any moment.The flashes from the cameras were incessant.The live broadcast was still ongoing.Every word Luna said was extraordinarily thought-provoking.This farce brought a negative impact on HS Corporation’s reputation.Finally, the bodyguards from behind managed to pull Luna away from Jenny Lynch.At this time, Jenny’s hair was messy, and her clothes were torn. There were scratch marks on her face.She simply looked wretched.The former movie star’
