Yvette hung up without saying a word. ‘What a horrible friend!’Nicole deleted the post, so those comments disappeared.She finally had some peace.Nicole did not need to reply to everyone because Yvette the big mouth would set everything straight for her.Even so, news of Nicole and Clayton dating was uncontrollable and spread swiftly and violently like wildfire.By the evening, there were all sorts of tabloids’ headlines like “Nicole’s new lover exposed” or “Nicole’s mysterious new love”.Nicole’s popularity was something everyone in showbiz was envious of.

Chapter 455 Pure Friendship
Nicole subconsciously wanted to help Eric hold up the IV fluid. The needle on his right hand was about to fall off. Beads of blood were seeping out.Eric’s face was miserably pale, and his thin lips were pressed into a straight line. His eyes lit up for a moment when he saw her.“Nicole, come in...”He took a few steps backward and lay back down on the bed.Nicole stood in the doorway and watched as Eric struggled to hang the IV fluid back in place, so she walked over to help him.She looked down at him. “Mr. Ferguson, how are you feeling?”Eric’s eyes flickered slightly as he smiled.“Much better now. You didn’t catch a cold, right?”Eric raised his eyes. His face was pale, and his voice was still a bit raspy.His gaze when Nicole looked at him was suffused with sadness.It was quite pitiful.“No.”Nicole’s heart trembled slightly. She walked to the chair opposite the bed and sat down as if nothing had happened.Toto came in with a bowl of chicken soup and looked at the f
Chapter 456 Happy to Help
Luca looked at Nicole, who raised her eyebrows and nodded. Luca then went outside.Eric and Nicole were left in the room.The air was cold.Nicole smiled. “Well, since you’re done eating, I’ll take out the empty bowl. Sleep early!”She stood up frankly and prepared to leave.Naturally, Nicole did not notice Eric’s cold, stern eyes that had a hint of grievance which soon dissipated.Everything seemed to be within reach, but Eric still could not catch her.“Nicole…” His voice was raspy and weak.Nicole paused and looked at him.“Yes?”“Why did you post that photo?”Eric’s lips were pressed into a straight line. His eyes were as dark as ink.Huge waves of emotions were hidden in those eyes.He was waiting for an answer, yet he was afraid of it.Nicole curled her lips and flipped her hair back. Her smile deepened.“Because he’s my new love…”Nicole wanted to use this as an excuse to make Eric give up on her.For a moment, Eric’s face turned even whiter. The pain in his eye
Chapter 457 Just a Fling
Nicole lowered her eyes. “Forget it. I can’t drag you into my mess because of my selfish reasons.”She knew very well that Eric would not believe a simple photo.Eric was only so mad just now because he did not come to his senses.Nicole withdrew her gaze and smiled. “Goodnight, Mr. Sloan.”“Goodnight.”She went back to her room.Nicole took a shower, changed into her pajamas, and was called over by her father to have a video call with the rest of the family.Grant had some work matters to discuss with Nicole. After the two of them sorted it out, the heaviness on Grant’s brow remained unabated. At that moment, Kai showed up on the screen.Kai yelled, “Are you really dating Clayton Sloan?!”Nicole knew that Kai was the biggest gossip queen in their family.“No!”She was speechless.Kai let out a sigh of relief.“That’s good. You can have a fling, but don’t take it seriously. If you do, you’re really a lost cause.”Nicole was speechless.Grant said, “K has a point.”It wa
Chapter 458 You Don’t Have a Chance
Toto smiled radiantly and lied without batting an eye.Nicole looked at Eric, who raised the cotton candy in his hand. His gaze was gentle and deep.“Well, do you like it?”Nicole looked at Eric with a complicated expression. ‘Cotton candy? This isn’t at all like Eric’s style!’Before she could do anything, Lil Michael excitedly ran over from her side.“I like it! I like it!”As the crowd froze, Lil Michael took over the cotton candy and bit into it viciously.“OMG! It’s so sweet that my baby teeth are gonna fall off!”Lil Michael covered his little cheek and ran aggrievedly into Nicole’s arms.“Pretty Lady, my teeth hurt…”Eric was exasperated, but he had to maintain his composure and pretend to be gentle and kind.“Be careful then.”Eric had no other choice because he was at a disadvantage.Thus, he could not simply offend anyone close to Nicole.Nicole patted Lil Michael’s fluffy curls. She knew that Eric was pretending, but she did not expose him.“Then don’t eat it.
Chapter 459 There’s a Party
Lil Michael thought, ‘No one can take away my Pretty Lady, not even Daddy!’When Eric saw this, a light and warm smile spread across his face.Suddenly, Eric felt that Lil Michael was not so much of an eyesore as before.“Mr. Sloan, don’t get angry. Your son has always been like this. He takes after you…”Clayton was speechless.Before Clayton said anything, Lil Michael immediately pulled Nicole’s hand and ran away in a fit of anger.Nicole followed the boy to a quiet place, where he finally stopped and panted.“Pretty Lady, among us three big men, who treat you the best?”Lil Michael blinked his bright, clear eyes and said the most innocent words.His sapphire eyes looked so pure.Nicole was stunned. ‘Three men? Lil Michael, Eric, and Clayton? Big men?’She could not understand what Lil Michael was thinking, but she still coaxed him.“Of course it’s you!”Lil Michael laughed happily and patted his chest proudly.“That’s for sure! I’m the best! The two of them are ugly, s
Chapter 460 Leave With Him
Nicole looked back, walked over indifferently, and pulled the silk scarf from the hands of the two men.She broke the silence in the air.“Let’s go. We’re late.”Nicole sat in the car and took the initiative to speak.Clayton stood upright and glanced at Eric coldly. “Goodbye, Mr. Ferguson.”He scrutinized Eric while ignoring his oppressive chill. He then walked around the front of the car, got inside, and started the engine.Eric sat there motionless. His eyes narrowed sharply and dangerously.How could he still be indifferent when someone else wanted to take from him?Toto came down and saw Eric sitting at the main entrance by himself, so he hurriedly went over.“Mr. Ferguson, have you seen Ms. Stanton?”Eric did not say anything.After a long time, he spoke indifferently, “Go and check what party is there in the circle today.”The party Clayton and Nicole attended together would not be some unknown little party.There was no way Eric could not find out.Toto froze for
Chapter 461 Plastic Brotherhood
Eric did not even glance at Keith. He only smiled at Nicole.“What a coincidence, Nicole. Why don’t you push my wheelchair, and I’ll take you to greet Chairman Harrison?”Nicole, who was just about to refuse, hesitated for a few seconds and agreed.“Okay.”Harrison Corporation was notoriously difficult to cooperate with. Chairman Harrison only cooperated with his friends and was a tycoon in Western Mediania. Although he was not well-known in the international arena, he was still very famous in Mediania. He owned two large mines and had a firm standing in the industry, so his power should not be underestimated.If Stanton Corporation could cooperate with Harrison Corporation, it would be beneficial to their development.Eric smiled. Toto stepped back and sighed. ‘Mr. Ferguson always has a way!’Keith coldly snorted in anger. “You’re not even here for me!”He turned around and stormed away.Toto shook his head. ‘What a plastic brotherhood… As long as Ms. Stanton’s around, everyo
