Chapter 2071 Refuse to Admit Her Fault
Eric’s eyes were indifferent, and his voice was harsh as he said, “Why? He doesn’t know anything about the things his sister did?”Cheryl implied several times that she approached him with Gerard’s knowledge.Otherwise, Eric would not have tolerated her so many times.However, this woman was much more ruthless than he thought.Mitchell pursed his lips. “The police have already detained Cheryl Lichman for questioning. The surveillance footage and witnesses are all available, so it’s easy to convict her. But she refuses to admit that she did it.”“It doesn’t matter if she doesn’t admit it as long as it doesn’t affect the conviction.”Eric said coldly.Mitchell was silent. It seemed that Eric was determined to settle accounts.Right.No matter what, Chance was Eric’s son. How could Eric just ignore it when Chance was injured while in Cheryl’s care. In the next second, Eric suddenly paused. “Where’s Yasmin?”Mitchell looked around. “I was in a hurry just now, so I didn’t pay at
Chapter 2072 You Must Behave
Mitchell said, “Although Young Master Chance’s life is no longer in danger, he fell from such a high place.”Mitchell glanced at him lightly. “You shouldn’t go to Mr. Ferguson to beg for mercy again for the sake of J&L Corporation.”That was all Mitchell had to say.Not long after Gerard left, Yasmin hurried over.Mitchell glanced at her with dissatisfaction.“Why are you late?”Yasmin paused and explained in a harmless and innocent tone.“I was afraid that I wrongly accused Ms. Lichman, so I went to check the surveillance footage. Is the young master alright?”Mitchell frowned. “He’s alright. Stay here and take care of the young master. I’m going to the police station.”“Okay.”Once Mitchell left, Yasmin’s harmless expression slowly faded. She took a deep look in the direction that Mitchell left and pushed open the door of the ward.Chance’s little face was pale, and his head was wrapped in gauze. He looked so pitiful.He lay there, completely unaware of the person who jus
Chapter 2073 The Deal Was Made
After a long time, Gerard looked shocked, and he could not calm down.Gerard’s voice was dry and hoarse.“So, you just let her set the place on fire and watched silently, huh?”Cheryl was startled. She subconsciously shook her head.“I… I wanted to save Chance, but Nicole had already rushed in. Right! I wanted to save Chance, but I was one step too late!”Gerard looked at his sister with complicated eyes.Was she still the proud and confident Cheryl Lichman that he knew?When Cheryl spoke, she dodged his gaze. She was lying, and she was guilty.Gerard thought of this and felt like his head was covered by a layer of haze. He only felt a chill in his heart.If it only involved Cheryl, this matter would be relatively simple.However, Cheryl was so stupid to get involved with Ingrid.Eric would never let Cheryl get away with it like how he would cover for Ingrid.Gerard paused, looked at Cheryl for a full minute, stood up, and turned to leave.“Brother, will you help me?”Ger
Chapter 2074 Infighting About Aesthetics
Nicole avoided Chatty as if she was fleeing from a plague.Chatty did not realize that her mother was disgusted by her. The big fish was still flapping its tail in her little arms, splashing water everywhere.The little girl grinned happily.Nicole could not help but laugh and took out her phone to take a photo of Chatty.“Our little Chatty is so strong!”“Mommy! Carry it…”“Mommy doesn’t want to carry it. You can carry it yourself!”After Nicole finished speaking, Chatty pouted unhappily, carried the big fish, and turned to leave.Chatty even snorted before leaving.Nicole looked at her daughter in shock. “Who did she learn this from?!”Floyd glanced at Nicole. “Why don’t you think about who’s been at home during this time?”Nicole paused. “Third Brother?”This was very much like Kai’s temper.Chatty got back into the water, let go of the fish, and caught another fish to play with.The few fishes in the fountain were exhausted from Chatty playing around with them.Seein
Chapter 2075 The Way to Apologize
Clayton’s lips could not help but curl up when he said that. He looked radiant and did not feel restrained at all.He seemed like he was proudly showing off.One of Clayton’s close friends stood up and said, “Just as well. Ms. Stanton has quite a reputation in Atlanta. We should’ve gone to visit her. Why don’t we go out and say hello?”“That’s right, Mr. Sloan. Let’s go out and say hello to your wife. You won’t mind, right?”Seeing everyone’s enthusiasm, Clayton raised his eyebrows.“Of course, I don’t mind!”Clayton took his jacket and walked out with a few people behind him.When they got to the downstairs lobby, they did not see Nicole. However, Kai stood there looking tall and slender as he asked the waiter about the latest gossip.Clayton paused and swept a glance. He could not see Nicole anywhere.He was about to walk past Kai when Kai beckoned to him.“Brother-in-law, my sister asked me to pick you up! Shall we go?”Kai swaggered over, nodded to the people behind Clay
Chapter 2076 Something Fishy
Nicole kissed Chatty, picked up the phone, and asked again, “Logan, what are you talking about?”Logan said anxiously, “Zach Gilbert is dead. He jumped off the hotel building. The police investigation found that he met you at Stanton Corporation before he died. This seems to be a little troublesome, President.”Nicole woke up in an instant. Her eyes darkened.“How could that happen…”Someone as treacherous and greedy as Zach Gilbert could not possibly commit suicide.Someone must have killed him!However, was there a connection between Zach’s and Tina’s death?Nicole’s mind was a mess. She always felt that there was someone behind her triggering this series of events.It felt like that person was pushing everyone into the abyss.Nicole was unconsciously forced into this situation.Logan’s voice came through the phone. “President, the lawyers are ready, and we have already talked to the police. But rumors of Zach Gilbert privately signing the contract with you have gone viral,
Chapter 2077 Call Me Hubby
Grant glanced at Clayton and laughed.“That’s true. Knowing her, she’ll consider stabbing someone in a non-critical position even if she’s in a critical situation with a knife in hand.”How could Nicole possibly kill someone?It was also impossible for Nicole to coerce someone to kill themselves.Clayton said, “Big Brother, I suspect that someone is behind this.”“I think so too.”Grant took a deep breath.He closed his eyes and groaned.“But now, we don’t have a lead to who the other party is. That person is hiding in the dark, and we’re an easy target.”Thus, they were in a passive position.Clayton said a few words and returned to Nicole’s office.Everyone in the office did not know what to believe about the rumors online. They were just interested to see the interaction between Clayton and Nicole.They were all envious that Clayton accompanied Nicole at this time.Grant figured that Nicole was in a bad mood, so he took away some of her work.Nicole was sitting in fron
Chapter 2078 Deliberately Hiding
Nicole clicked her tongue and finally gave up on calling Clayton “Mr. Sloan”.However, Nicole noticed that every time she called him that, Clayton would frown and start to lecture her seriously.It was as if he could write a book on his view of marriage.Nicole found it kind of funny.Fortunately, Nicole’s mood during the next half of the car journey improved a lot.Nicole glanced at the public opinion online. Those topics about her were suppressed.At the same time, the public relations department of Stanton Corporation also issued a statement.They expressed regret for the death of Tina and Zach Gilbert but stated that Nicole had nothing to do with this matter and would fully cooperate with the police investigation. They also reserved the right to pursue this legally until the investigation was over.As soon as this statement was released, the rumors online gradually died down.The platform had also deliberately suppressed the topic, so those malicious speculations about Nic
