Chapter 43 You’re Different
Eric Ferguson did not bother to look at Nicole’s expression and walked straight to Ingrid. His face was inexplicably cold.“Was everything you just said true?” He asked with gritted teeth.Ingrid was a little flustered. She bit her lower lip and did not know how to respond.She grew up around her parents and was not close to her brother, who grew up abroad. After Eric returned to the country, he became a first-class business whiz in the industry and expanded the Ferguson family’s wealth by hundreds of times. This made Ingrid insufferably arrogant.“Answer me!” Eric saw Ingrid’s hesitation and forced her to speak.A crisp, cold scoff came from the left side behind him. Without a thought, he knew that it was Nicole who was laughing.“Mr. Ferguson, it’s all true.”As soon as Nicole admitted it, the surrounding people looked at these two people with a complicated gaze. They did not expect that behind Nicole’s bright and beautiful exterior was such an ugly and miserable past.After
Chapter 44 Blind
Nicole sneered and looked at Ingrid Ferguson with a cold gaze. She lowered her eyelids slightly and said, “Ms. Ferguson, are you trying to embarrass me by bringing out this ugly past over and over again? Mind you, I’m not embarrassed. Your family should be embarrassed for treating their daughter-in-law like a maid. I wonder who will ever dare to marry into your family again...”“Anyway, you’re not worthy of being a Ferguson! Nicole, you were clearly trying to seduce my brother earlier. Aren’t you gonna admit it?”Ingrid was adamant that Nicole was deliberately seducing her brother with that kiss earlier. ‘Nicole wants me to apologize?!’Ingrid was resentful and thought, ‘Why can Nicole be so arrogant? Why didn’t my brother back me up?’“Ms. Ferguson, you actually think that I want to seduce Mr. Ferguson?”Nicole laughed lightly. She was never one to beat around the bush and had always gone straight to the point.‘Seduce? I don’t think I’m cheap enough to do this!’That kiss at
Chapter 45 Really Calculative
Ian Carter glanced sideways at Eric Ferguson. He smiled smugly and recklessly as if he was mocking Eric’s current situation.‘Look at him! Even Eric Ferguson will end up like this…’Keith Ludwig finally caught up to Eric. He followed Eric’s gaze and saw Nicole’s departing back. “Tsk tsk… Ferg, since you’re already divorced, don’t regret it. This is all that woman’s cheap tricks anyway.” Eric cast a sidelong glance at him and said, “Do I need you to teach me how to do things?”Keith suddenly felt a chill on his back and did not dare to speak for a while.‘That woman humiliated Eric in front of everyone. Even I feel like dying from anger, so let alone Eric! Although what Ingrid said was indeed a little overboard, that woman asked for it since she begged to marry Eric in the first place! Was it not her own fault then?’When Nicole first entered the hall, many came over to mingle with her perhaps because of her position in the Stanton Corporation or because of the drama tonight.Si
Chapter 46 Don’t Want to Put Up With You
Ingrid Ferguson’s face stiffened. She screamed and saw that a cup of cold water had been splashed on her face and body.Nicole gently put down the decorative bottle at the sink and dusted her hands. Her gaze was calm as she said, “You asked for this.”“Nicole, how dare you…”Ingrid was so angry that her face flushed red. She was shivering. The dress she wore was from Dior’s off-the-rack collection. Although it was not as luxurious as Nicole’s custom-made dress, it still had an eight-figure price tag. Many celebrities did not even qualify to look at it, but now it was ruined!Nicole smirked. Her smile did not reach her eyes. “Do you really think that I’ll put up with you like before? If you dare provoke me again, I’ll teach you a lesson and settle both the new and old accounts together!”Ingrid shuddered when she saw a penetrating coldness in Nicole’s eyes. She could not help but feel frightened.However, she no longer wanted to think so much at this moment. She was the Young Lady
Chapter 47 Humble
After all, Ingrid looked very wretched and could not come out of the bathroom for a while.Eric looked at Nicole with a deep gaze. His chiseled face held an inquisitive expression.“Why didn’t you say anything when my family treated you like this?”“What?” Nicole raised her eyebrows. Her eyes were indifferent, and she did not expect him to say that.“Why didn’t you ever tell me?”‘If she had told me, I’d have stopped my family from doing this to her… I definitely would.’Eric scrutinized Nicole with his stunning eyes as if he did not want to let go of any hint of emotion on her face.Nicole laughed. “It’s all in the past. We’re divorced now, so there’s no point in mentioning it again.”‘What’s the use of talking about it now? They will only humiliate me more…’“Since we’re already divorced, what’s the harm of talking about it? You should at least let me know why you wanted a divorce out of the blue, right?” The man suppressed his violently beating heart in his chest and looked
Chapter 48 Drunk
Inside the car, Nicole could hear the lovely and soothing sound of music that was like a refreshing stream of water going through her. It was her favorite violin piece, “Serenade”.Nicole finally felt relaxed at this moment. She tugged at the hem of her dress in fascination, seemingly thinking about something.Grant glanced to the side at his sister. “Lil N, is Ian Carter pursuing you?”He could see at a glance that there was something fishy with Ian Carter.Nicole’s thoughts were interrupted, and she was startled. “Nah, he’s just fooling around. He’ll be back to normal in a couple of days.”Grant looked away and laughed. “That’s good.”“You don’t like him?”That was strange. The Stantons always had a good relationship with the Carters. Otherwise, they would not have allowed Nicole to get close to Ian and Hugh.“He’s had too many girlfriends, and his private life is too messy. He’s not suitable for you, but if you’re happy…” Grant was a little hesitant.Nicole laughed. “What a
Chapter 49 Throw It Away
Nicole’s alarm clock rang, waking her up from her beauty sleep.Nicole had requested to go back to her apartment last night. She felt a lot more comfortable without waking up to see so many maids. She looked at her phone and saw that the photos from last night’s party had pushed her and Eric to fame once again.[Rich ex-couple suspected to be back together?]It was attached with a picture of Eric and Nicole’s kiss at the end of the dance. It was an ingenious shot. Even the lighting and background looked very artistic.Nicole sneered and did not pay attention to it. She closed the article and opened her email.Logan had already sent Nicole’s schedule to her early in the morning. Nicole washed up and listened to some finance news.Last night’s trouble had all been forgotten after a good sleep and she would not let Eric Ferguson affect her mood again.Yvette kept bombarding Nicole with calls because she had just seen the picture online. She wanted to confirm the truth of the matt
Chapter 50 Backer
Samantha Lindt hated Nicole, but since Nicole had something over her head, Samantha dared not get into an all-out fight with her.“My experience in leading teams is no less than those on the list, and my performance is one of the best among the senior managers. Vice President Nicole, are you still holding a grudge against me because of what happened last time?”Samantha was obviously a bit discontented.Nicole lowered her eyes and laughed. “No, I don’t hold a grudge against you, but I do remember that you were against cooperating with J&L before this. I’m just afraid your attitude will affect our cooperation, so…”“I will comply with the company’s decision.” Samantha eagerly showed her allegiance.Nicole gave her a perfunctory smile. “This list has been announced at the board meeting, so I’m afraid there’s no way to change it now. Let’s talk about it next time we have the chance…”She had already started to pack up the things on her desk, giving Samantha an obvious signal that sh
