Nicole and Clayton walked away under everyone’s adoring and envious gaze.Nicole’s answer was just a casual remark, but it was so befitting to her identity and dressing.The female student who interviewed Nicole looked envious and looked back at the camera.“Dear fans, y’all heard this young lady’s answer! I hope that we’ll all have such courage to wave goodbye to our exes!”The video came to an end.Nicole received a call to go back to the office, so Clayton walked her back to the entrance.“See you next time.”Nicole nodded. She thought of something and spoke hesitantly, “Mr. Sloan, actually, what Keith Ludwig said earlier isn’t a lie.”She wanted to take this opportunity to make things clear so that he would back off.Clayton chuckled. “Those who only look at someone’s past are pathetic. I’m a little saddened that you don’t seem to have trust in me.”Nicole raised her eyebrows. At this time, her phone rang again, urging her. She glanced at it and bid goodbye to Clayton bef
Nicole swept a glance at her and curled up her lips into a cold smile.“I believe you know what she did and that my counterattack is justified. You should understand that an apology is not necessary, right?”Ivy jerked her head up with unbelievable shock and coldness in her eyes.She did not expect Nicole’s cold reaction.Joy was speechless for a moment. She then turned around and slapped Ivy hard in front of Nicole as if she was helping Nicole to take out her anger on Ivy.“Look what you’ve done! Ms. Stanton is so angry. Do you think that you can turn the page with an apology?”A very obvious slap mark appeared on Ivy’s face immediately. She bit her lip with forbearance and lowered her eyes, not daring to fight back.Nicole frowned. She did not expect Joy to hit Ivy in front of her.Joy was furious. She fiercely twisted Ivy’s arm and kicked her shin. “Kneel and apologize to Ms. Stanton!”Hearing that, Nicole froze.Even Ivy stiffened for a moment.“Come on, why are you hesi
Nicole looked to the side.Ivy Harrison knew that she had lost her temper and hurriedly looked at Joy for help.Joy was not bothered with her and explained, “How can Sheldon Corporation’s scale and financial strength compare to Harrison Corporation? You shouldn’t fall for their scheme, Ms. Stanton…”She was well aware that the reason Harrison Corporation could have a steady foothold in the west was because of Ferguson Corporation’s support.Even if Sheldon Corporation started to expand in the past few years, Harrison Corporation was seated securely in the same position.Ferguson Corporation would not allow its partners to be subservient to others.If Harrison Corporation could cooperate with Stanton Corporation, they would reach greater heights and would completely surpass Sheldon Corporation!However, if Nicole decides to cooperate with Sheldon Corporation, Harrison Corporation’s archrival, they would soon be on an equal footing with them and would even threaten their power.I
Ivy’s words resounded.Nicole stopped in her tracks. Her face was surprisingly calm, but with a cold aloofness that seemed to keep others a thousand miles away from her.She turned around and looked at Ivy like she was seeing a madwoman going through a neurotic episode.It was bad enough a person had no inner quality, but to not have a brain either?Logan heard the commotion and was worried that Ivy would do something to Nicole, so he stepped up to open the door.Nicole’s tone was extremely cold, and her smile was tinged with contempt.“My fault?”Ivy looked at her while sobbing timidly.Nicole was fed up with her hypocritical attitude.“Ms. Harrison, if having money is a fault, then I guess I’m the most sinful and evil person. If you don’t get out of my sight now, I’ll make Harrison Corporation lose a few more partners. Would you like to try me?”Nicole’s voice was pleasant, but the words she spoke were cold without a trace of warmth.A trace of panic and fear finally flash
Nicole was stunned for a moment. Xander walked up to her as if he had come here just for her.His smile was deliberately trained, with a curvature that was particularly similar to Eric’s.Every time Nicole looked at Xander, she had a very strange feeling.Eric would never smile with such fakeness and politeness.“Ms. Stanton, it’s a pleasure to see you…”Nicole nodded with a calm face.There were many people around, and Nicole did not want to be the focus of attention.Xander hesitated for a second and said, “I wanted to apologize to you regarding the hot topic incident back then. Actually, I asked a reporter friend of mine to take that photo...”Nicole raised her brows. She has already known about this for a long time.Why was he bringing it up?When Xander saw that she was not surprised, his heart sank slightly and he continued stiffly, “I’m sorry for the trouble I caused you.”Nicole’s lips curled. “Mr. Xander, you have tens of thousands of fans, so this matter shouldn’t
Eric’s footsteps approached.“Scram.”The casually spoken word was like an invisible pressure over Xander’s head, making him unable to fight back.Xander had the sense to stop resisting and ran away swiftly with a pale face...He could go back and cozy up to Nicole again later, but he could not offend Eric Ferguson!Nicole did not care about Xander’s departure. She did not expect a sissy like him to have that much of a backbone, but she did not expect him to run so quickly either.She flipped her hair casually and turned to look at Eric expressionlessly.“You scared my man away, Mr. Ferguson. You’re really capable, aren’t you?”Eric’s eyes were deep and dark, and there was a faint emotion suppressed inside.Nicole could not tell what it was, and she did not want to find out either.However, she watched as the corners of his eyes turned red. His lips were also pale and sickly, making his temperament seem slightly weaker than usual.“I’ll make it up to you.”His voice was low
Eric’s eyes were sunken and dark as he looked at her with guilt.He already regretted lying to Nicole, but how could he make up for it?Nicole did not want to look at him anymore and walked past him. In any case, she no longer had to hide from him, so she would just hang around for a while before leaving.Eric watched her leave as if they were strangers. Their relationship seemed to return to the time when they were just divorced.That coldness could freeze one’s heart.However, he had put in so much effort to gradually repair their relationship into something normal. How could he just watch as he went back to square one?Eric took a few steps forward and tried to chase after her, but a man suddenly ran up from behind him in a panic.“Eric, listen to me. Why didn’t you answer my calls?”It was Keith.Ever since that incident, Eric blocked Keith.He was prepared never to see Keith again.Keith would not wait idly for his impending death. Eric did not acquire his company, whic
Xander actually dared to come back?Heh...Nicole thought about it before sending a message to Dominic Young. “Xander doesn’t have work scheduled tonight?”Dominic replied a few seconds later. “He’s playing a supporting role in Director Zoros’s movie. It’ll be an overnight shoot.”Nicole had an idea of what was going on.She got someone to dispose of the flowers and bid goodbye to Miles before leaving.Nathaniel watched as the line he painstakingly cast for Eric slowly disappeared and hurriedly ran over.“Nikki, you drank alcohol, so it’ll be dangerous if you leave alone. I’ll ask someone to send you back.”Nicole refused as she walked. “No need.”“That won’t do. I’ll be worried…”Nicole gave him a look. “Niel, your program hasn’t been very popular recently, but I don’t see you being short of money. Why is the Ferguson family suddenly being so generous to you?”Nathaniel’s expression changed slightly. He knew in an instant that Nicole could tell that he had been colluding wi
