Clayton talked to Chatty about studying abroad.Chatty agreed without hesitation.He asked her where she wanted to go, to which she replied that she was fine with anywhere except France.Clayton pondered for a while before asking, “Are you reluctant about France because of Fischer?”Chatty’s eyes turned red.“I don’t remember him at all. Daddy, don’t mention him!”She felt aggrieved.Chatty grew up with him, and he suddenly disappeared one day.It felt like a dream.That person was no longer behind her. Fischer was no longer around.Chatty missed him very much, but Fischer did not even say goodbye.Clayton touched her head and looked at his daughter in distress.“Chatty, now that you’ve grown up, you should know that Fischer had no choice but to leave. He also couldn’t contact you, so if you see him in the future, don’t blame him.”Chatty stubbornly turned her head away, pretending not to care.She was the apple of Clayton’s eye, so when had she ever suffered any grievanc
After Chatty left, Clayton sighed miserably for several days, and Nicole was speechless when she saw this.Life in school was not so boring.Although Chatty had been spoiled since childhood, she was not arrogant or insufferable.Chatty was bubbly, outgoing, and clever, so she was very popular.From time to time, she invited everyone to party in her big villa. Thus, everyone loved her even more.Chatty also enjoyed her time alone.She would go for a walk along the Seine and feed the pigeons in the sunset...However, she always felt that someone was watching her whenever she was alone.Even so, she did not think much about it. After all, her father arranged so many security personnel for her.Maybe that stare was from a bodyguard.Chatty walked alone in the sunset with an ice cream in hand and a limited-edition bag that her mom bought for her. Chatty was planning to send this bag back to Mediania.She was a young and beautiful lady with stunning features, so she was a sight to
Chatty and Fischer had been apart for so long, so they cried when they finally hugged.Fischer could not bear to see her cry.When her sobbing eased a little, Fischer lowered his head to wipe her tears and gently coaxed her not to cry.Chatty took a deep breath and calmed herself down as soon as possible.She had so many questions for him.Seeing that her eyes were swollen from crying, Fischer pinched her cheek and said with a smile, “Do you still want to drink coffee? If you don’t want this, we can go to my place, and I’ll make you a cup of coffee.”Chatty nodded.Fischer let down his hand and naturally held Chatty’s hand. He turned around to pick up her bag and pushed the door open.The waiter at the back was envious that they were such a perfect match.Chatty saw that he was holding her hand and felt as if an electric current passed through her heart.When they were young, Fischer often held her hand. They were inseparable, and he liked her the most.Was he still the same
Ding!A message alert sounded.[Please go to the hospital to donate blood as soon as possible.] When Nicole saw this message, she was stunned for a moment like she had sustained a huge blow to her chest.The sender’s name was “Hubby”.Ding!Another message immediately followed. It was a notice from the bank that she had received a fund transfer of 500,000 dollars.Nicole scrolled up to look at her message history with her husband.[Remember to go to the hospital.][Fund Transfer: $500,000][Remember to come to the hospital to donate blood.][Fund Transfer: $500,000][Please come to the hospital right away.][Fund Transfer: $500,000]......In their three years of marriage, the time Nicole’s husband, Eric Ferguson, initiated contact with her was to ask her to go to the hospital to donate blood. To be exact, to sell blood. Nicole’s blood was sold to… Wendy Quade.Eric also treated Nicole as a stranger throughout their marriage.This month alone, Nicole had already given
Nicole put away her phone. She suppressed the pain in her heart and the burning sensation in her body, then braced herself and took a taxi to the City Hall.Time passed by the minute. Eric Ferguson called Nicole twice, but no one answered, so he refused to call again.Nicole sat on a bench looking very pale. An hour later, Eric walked over with a stern, expressionless face as he looked down at her with his cold gaze.“What exactly are you dissatisfied with? I know that you’ve donated more blood this month, but I’ve already compensated you.”“Let’s just get a divorce…” Nicole lifted her head and met his cold gaze. Her voice was calm and composed and she no longer wanted to speak to Eric anymore.What they said was never the same thing.Nicole looked at the prominent features of the man in front of her. He was handsome and tall, which made her fall head over heels for him, but he never once smiled at her.In the past, she used to be cautious not to irritate him, but now when she s
Eric’s eyes sank and his face was stormy as he yelled, “Nicole! What are you doing?!” The man’s voice was cold.‘He showed up fast enough. Was he so afraid that I’d hurt Wendy?’ Nicole thought.Wendy pouted and looked panicked. Her eyes suddenly brimmed with tears as she covered her cheek and looked behind Nicole. She argued in a loud voice, “I didn’t do anything, Nicole. You misunderstood me.”‘Is Nicole crazy? How dare she hit me in front of Eric?’Nicole sneered. “Stop your act. I know it’s you.”With a seeping cold gaze, Nicole walked to Wendy and took out the printed picture of Eric from her bag, then flung it in front of them.Eric looked at the photo and had a moment of shock and confusion. Wendy’s face also instantly turned glum and pale.He had a long day yesterday, so when he visited Wendy at the hospital, he dozed off for a while. It was apparent that this photo was secretly taken at that time.The only other person in that room then was Wendy Quade.Thus, Eric kn
Nicole did not care in the slightest whether Wendy was embarrassed or not. She looked at Wendy’s bandaged left leg and ripped off the bandage despite Wendy’s struggle.Suddenly, the surrounding atmosphere in the ward dropped to freezing point.Nicole looked at the graze on Wendy’s leg and scoffed.“Wow, it’s so serious that there’s not even a drop of blood flowing out. If I came a little later, I’m afraid your ‘wound’ will heal completely…”“Nicole! You... Eric, it’s not like that… It’s just that I’m feeling weak right now and will recover better with a blood transfusion…”Wendy Quade met the man’s dark gaze. Her heart trembled as she explained in a panic.“You get ‘injured’ four to five times a month. I think you’re just trying to drain my blood!” Nicole’s voice was cold as she continued, “Too bad, you won’t have this opportunity again in the future. Get Eric to marry another fool to be your new mobile blood bank.”After that, Nicole sneered and left the ward without looking ba
As soon as Floyd Stanton walked over, Nicole jumped into his arms and cried hysterically.Floyd sighed, heartbroken and angry at his daughter. She had never suffered the slightest bit since she was a child, yet she acted so lowly in front of Eric Ferguson. To make things worse, Eric Ferguson never once appreciated his darling daughter.If not for their prior agreement, Floyd Stanton would have crushed the Fergusons and beat that bastard to death to avenge his daughter!“Nikki, remember our agreement? If that bastard doesn’t fall in love with you within three years, you’ll come back to succeed me in the company. Now, you have to abide by our agreement, okay?”Floyd lovingly stroked his daughter’s hair while she bawled. After a while, Nicole sobbed and spoke intermittently.“Don’t worry, Dad… I… Won’t be… That stupid again…”To chase after her so-called “true love”, Nicole abandoned her family and friends despite their advice. She gave up her identity, elite status, and luxury life
