Chapter 490 Refuse to Touch You
Nicole was just about to rest when she received Toto’s call.She panicked, took her keys, and ran out.Nicole felt guilty when she thought about Eric limping. If his leg could never recover because of her, she was afraid that she would owe him for the rest of her life.Luca drove, so the twenty-minute journey only took ten minutes.They arrived at Imperial Gardens in a flash.As soon as Nicole went in, Toto greeted her in a panic.“Ms. Stanton, Mr. Ferguson fell down the stairs. He has a fever and is now unconscious!”Nicole knitted her brows. Her heart thumped when she heard this.“Did you call a doctor?”Toto froze and immediately spoke.“Yes... The doctor got into an accident on the way, so he’ll be delayed for a while.”Nicole went to Eric’s room and saw the man lying on the bed. His face was pale with beads of sweat on his forehead. He really looked like he had a fever.The husky circled the bed and chewed on his cane on the side.Nicole frowned. ‘How did he get a fev
Chapter 491 Make It Real
There was a flash of delight in Eric’s eyes.Then, he sighed. “Forget it. How can I let you do it yourself?”Toto said to retreat as an advance.He had to adapt to the situation.Nicole frowned and placed the ice pack on Eric’s forehead.“Such a simple thing is nothing. Bear with it a little longer and wait for the doctor to come.”Eric’s face faintly stiffened.“That’s all?”Nicole nodded. “Done. I didn’t touch you.”He just said that he did not like anyone touching him!Eric slowly closed his eyes and was speechless.In the next second, Nicole’s phone rang.Eric glanced at her phone and saw the caller ID.It was Clayton Sloan.His heart stalled for a moment.“It’s so late. What could he be calling you for?”He could not hide the jealousy and bitterness in his tone.Eric felt so jealous that he wanted to kill someone!Nicole absently pursed her lips. “Work.”She did not intend to explain anything to Eric because there was no need to do so.After that, she stood up
Chapter 492 Make Her Happy
Eric was terrified.He was afraid of losing Nicole forever.Eric told himself not to get mad. It did not matter even if Nicole chose Clayton.He had a million ways to confine her to his life forever.Nicole was speechless and pushed him away. Her strength was much stronger than Eric, who was pretending to be sick. She sneered and said, “Then you can feel at ease being sick. The doctor will be here soon.”After she said this, she turned around.When she got downstairs, she met Toto and the doctor who came in one after another, looking unhappy and not very anxious.If Nicole had not noticed beforehand that Eric was pretending to be sick, she might not understand what was going on.Luca was following them with a serious face as he urged them.Seeing Nicole coming downstairs, Toto hurriedly greeted her.“Ms. Stanton, what do you want to take? I’ll go get it for you. You don’t need to come down personally.”She should just spend more time with Eric.Nicole gave him a cold blank
Chapter 493 His Lookalike
Yvette knew that Floyd was just poking fun at her. She did not get angry and happily went to pull Nicole’s arm. “I’m creating opportunities for Nicole. If she meets more people, she won’t get easily coaxed!”Floyd thought it made sense.Nicole helplessly looked at Yvette.“I have a dinner appointment with a business partner tonight, so go ahead with your celebration.Nicole only felt a headache when she thought about Yvette’s parties. It was just filled with all kinds of fancy food and drink, which she was already used to.She might as well close a business deal.Yvette simply walked over and sat next to Nicole. She spoke in a low voice, “This time is different. I’ve prepared a surprise for you! Many famous male models all over the world are invited too! I guarantee that they’re your favorite type, so just go and check it out!”Nicole gave her a speechless look. Famous male models all over the world?Yvette was never so focused on her family’s business, but she was always extre
Chapter 494 The Rich Woman’s Secret
Yvette patted Nicole’s shoulder.“If you hate it, just think of Xander as Eric’s replacement and torment him. If you like it, just obsess over Xander, which will exasperate Eric to death! No matter how you look at it, you won’t lose out!”Nicole smiled faintly. “You guys sure are my besties, huh?”“That’s for sure!” The two ladies spoke in unison.Ian, who was on the side, coldly snorted. “You girls only know how to goof around…”Nicole’s eyes lit up and scooted over to him excitedly.“Carter, what do you have in mind?”‘A business idea, perhaps?’Ian smiled lazily and scrolled through his phone.“I still have eight hundred pounds of potatoes that I haven’t sold, do you wanna help?”Nicole was speechless.Julie coldly snorted. “Carter wanted me to help him pull customers for his agricultural produce at a big fashion show abroad. Do you think it’s appropriate?!”Ian glared at Julie with dissatisfaction. “What’s not appropriate about it? Do people in the fashion industry not
Chapter 495 Marry Into the Stanton Family
The reporters simply did not want to return empty-handed.Nicole took a deep breath and opened the door, revealing a polite yet unobtrusive smile.“In fact, this is just a preliminary contact. We intend to do a talent show with internationally-renowned supermodels as guest judges, but everything is still confidential at this moment, so please forgive us for not being able to reveal too many details.”Julie was obviously relieved.Nicole was an old-timer in business, so she was good at convincing others with answers that did not sound like she was simply coping with them.Seeing that Nicole had spoken, the reporters swarmed around her.“Ms. Stanton, which one of these models are you most optimistic about?”Nicole paused and smiled lightly. “Everyone.”They laughed in response knowing that they could not afford to offend Nicole. If they continued to pester her, they might lose their jobs.The reporters were not embarrassed and said, “Then we’ll look forward to the new show!”Th
Chapter 496 Who’s Problematic?
What an ordinary and inspiring day!Before Nicole opened her eyes, she received Yvette’s incessant call.Without needing to think, Nicole knew that the only one who would call her at this time was her best friend.When she picked up, her voice was hoarse and lazy. “Hello?”Yvette spoke in a hurry, “Nicole, you’re on the hot topic again!”Nicole’s eyes widened and felt wide awake.“Didn’t everyone leave last night? Why didn’t Xander leave and even send you off? Everyone thought that he was Eric Ferguson and thought that you guys were back together, but Eric’s friend posted another photo denying the matter. Someone then found out that it was Xander.”Nicole’s heart sank slightly.She knew very well what Xander meant to the public.It meant that her past relationship would once again become the talk of the town.Xander’s face would become everyone’s target of speculation. Was he a replacement? Or her new love interest?Nicole could already think of all the headlines that follow
Chapter 497 Betraying Nicole
After hanging up the phone, Nicole went to work as usual.Imperial Gardens.As soon as Toto saw the hot topic, he was so scared that he could not sleep anymore, especially after seeing the rebuttal from Eric’s friend. He felt like it was completely over.That was a detrimental friend!This was such a good opportunity to protect Nicole that they could never wish for.That man who walked Nicole to the car really looked like Eric if one did not look too carefully.Toto did not dare to delay this and went upstairs to knock on the door apprehensively.Eric drowned himself in alcohol and had anger pent up inside. When he opened the door, he glared coldly at Toto. “Speak!”Toto took out his phone. “Mr. Ferguson, you should see it for yourself…”One minute... Two minutes... Five minutes passed. Eric’s face turned increasingly glum.He was the main character and had not been successful with Nicole, yet his double had already surpassed him?The internet was filled with cries of
