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
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
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
Eli Harrison smiled. “Bro, this is my youngest daughter. She’s been living abroad, so she’s quite shy since she has never attended these events before. Don’t laugh at her.”Eric smiled faintly without much emotion.Nicole sized up Ivy Harrison. Looking at her demeanor, Ivy did not look like she grew up abroad.Noticing Nicole’s gaze, Ivy glanced at her and quickly bowed her head.Since Nicole knew what this father and daughter pair had in mind, she did not need to stay any longer.Nicole smiled and patted Eric’s shoulder.“Mr. Ferguson, you guys talk. I’ll get something to eat.”Before Eric could stop her, Eli Harrison laughed loudly.“Take care, Ms. Stanton.”With a faint smile, Nicole turned around and left.Many people around saw this scene. Nicole’s departing back looked so lonely, which inevitably made others pity her.She took a slice of cake and sat down in a corner. A man sat down beside her.It was Clayton.He loosened his tie and looked helpless. “I’m sorry for l
Ivy Harrison said, “Mr. Ferguson, it’s really nice to meet you.”She knew that the woman who was prettier than most celebrities earlier was Eric Ferguson’s ex-wife. That woman was truly more dazzling in person.Nicole and Eric’s entanglement was buzzing on the internet, but Ivy did not mind.Since they were already divorced, there was nothing to worry about.Although Ivy could not compare with that woman in terms of family background, she was willing to bow down and obey him as long as she could marry him.In her opinion, no man liked women who were too powerful.Ivy’s initiative to greet Eric received no response.When she looked up, she saw that Eric’s cold gaze was always focused in one direction, at Nicole and Clayton.Ivy gritted her teeth and took a step forward.“I’ll push you to rest elsewhere?”Before her hand touched his wheelchair, Eric spoke in an icy voice, “Don’t touch me.”Her hand paused mid-air.Eric’s tone was indifferent and devoid of warmth.“No one is
Old Master Ferguson said, “Don’t waste your efforts on Nicole anymore. She has scandals with male celebrities left and right, and now even a scandal with Clayton Sloan. Which family can accept such a woman that has more scandals than you? If she really marries into our family, how can we still command respect from others?”Eric’s gaze swept over Ivy Harrison, who was standing obediently at the side. The cold light in his eyes pierced her like a knife.Ivy was nervous and did not know what she had done wrong.She wanted to take a closer look at his eyes, but he had already shifted his gaze.Was it disappointment or joy?Eric’s thin lips were pursed. His complexion was dark and unsightly.“If you want a marriage alliance, you can marry her yourself. Nicole is my only choice.”After that, Eric hung up the phone. His body was exuding a dense chill.The surrounding people who wanted to exchange pleasantries with Eric dared not approach him.Seeing that he hung up the phone, Ivy Har
Ivy Harrison hung her head. Her face was flushed red.“M-Mr. Ferguson likes Ms. Stanton. I can’t help it…”How could Ivy possibly compare with Nicole Stanton?Ivy was a speck of dust, while Nicole was the sun.Joy Harrison snorted coldly.“Can’t help it? Isn’t your mother a mistress? Did she not impart you some skills before she died? If he doesn’t like you, can’t you find other ways to steal his heart?”Joy shoved Ivy, who fell back against the wall. Her head hit the wall and made a dull sound.She was such a pity.Nicole stood there and felt some sympathy for Ivy Harrison, but this feeling quickly disappeared.‘What does it have to do with me anyway?’ Nicole thought.In the next second, Nicole heard Ivy’s scream. “My clothes!”Joy’s gaze was cold as she took the cleaner’s bucket on the side that was filled with water and poured it over Ivy.Joy felt resentful and satisfied.Ivy was completely drenched in dirty water. She stood there miserably, leaning against the wall as
Ivy Harrison was drenched and shivering. That pitiful look was really unbearable.The air was silent for a moment.Keith breathed a long sigh of relief. ‘Luckily, it’s not directed at me…’Eric’s gaze was cold and heavy. His eyes were not at all focused in the direction of that woman.His thin lips were tightly pursed. His face was dark and cold, but his expression had a hint of sadness. His soul was long gone with a certain someone.The banquet hall was lively with laughter.Who could have known that such a scene happened at this place?Keith subconsciously touched Eric’s back and wondered what he should do.Eric frowned slightly. Keith coughed.“Ferg, look at this…”Ivy Harrison’s sobs were incessant as she looked at Eric mournfully.Eric’s voice was icy cold.“This is your party. Don’t ask me.”Keith froze. “No, but wasn’t she just with you?”Eric cast a warning glance at Keith.“We’re not familiar.”With that, Eric wheeled himself away without an expression, leaving
