Lobby of Stanton Tower.As soon as Nicole got out of the car, Kai floored the accelerator and left in a huff.He was throwing a tantrum.Hehe...“Ms. Stanton…”A familiar voice called out. Nicole turned around and saw Toto running over while panting. He held a blue rectangular custom-made box in his hands.Nicole’s eyes sank, slightly speechless.Eric kept pestering her. He was becoming more and more shameless.Toto handed the blue box over. “Good morning, Ms. Stanton. Mr. Ferguson carefully selected these for you. It was just flown in from New Zealand. He hopes you’ll like it.”He opened it directly without waiting for Nicole to speak.Inside was a bouquet of delicate red roses, bright and fragrant. There was dew on the petals and the leaves were gorgeous, making them look warmer and redder than ordinary roses.Many people were coming and going at the entrance of Stanton Corporation.It was clear that Eric wanted to attract everyone’s attention and declare his sovereignty.
Nicole handed Lil Michael to Logan and went straight to the conference room for a meeting.When she came out again, Lil Michael was obediently waiting in her office doing a puzzle.Nicole read documents for a while until her phone rang.She picked it up and saw that it was from Clayton.She answered it. “Mr. Sloan?”“Ms. Stanton, is Michael behaving?”Clayton’s voice was gentle and calm with a seductive tenderness that could hook one’s soul.Nicole paused for a moment before snapping back to her senses.“He’s very well-behaved. He’s doing a puzzle now.”Clayton let out a low chuckle. “He colluded with the nanny and bodyguard to skip class and run away from home. I knew that he’d be with you.”Lil Michael seemed to realize who Nicole was on the phone with and ran over with wide eyes.“Pretty Lady, is that Daddy?”Nicole handed him the phone. “Yup. Do you want to talk to him?”“NO!”Lil Michael decisively hung up the phone!He put in a lot of effort to run out so that he c
Quinn’s shocked reaction was slightly out-of-place, and her voice was shrill, so she drew the attention of many people.Ivy Harrison stood meekly beside Quinn Ferguson, quiet and docile like she was pretending to be an ostrich.The moment she saw Nicole, a vague hint of excitement and resentment flashed in her eyes.Nicole did not look at Ivy. She only gently raised her eyes and glanced at Quinn.She did not explain herself because she could not be bothered with Quinn.Quinn realized that she had lost her composure and hurriedly snapped back to her senses.The man sitting across Nicole wore expensive clothes, had an outstanding temperament, and his movements were regal.The child was raised well and had good manners. Even the way he acted petulantly was not overbearing.With Nicole’s current identity, the people she came into contact with were definitely not ordinary.However, Quinn still could not help but sneer.“I was mistaken. Nicole, is this your… Boyfriend?”She looked
The phone was silent for two seconds.Eric’s voice was cold.“Fall out? What are you talking about?”Nicole looked at Quinn with deep eyes. The older woman was already panicking.“Mrs. Ferguson brought your fiancée over and humiliated me and Mr. Sloan. Are they doing this under your orders or Old Master Ferguson’s orders?”They could feel Eric’s chill through the phone.“Where are you?”Nicole did not answer and hung up the phone.Her objective was not to call him over.It was for the Ferguson family to put a leash on Quinn.Nicole was no longer Eric’s wife, so there was no need for her to accommodate Quinn’s whims!Quinn did not expect Nicole to call Eric so blatantly.Truth be told, Quinn was a little afraid of her son.Ingrid was still missing, but she almost forgot this lesson.Ivy felt Quinn’s body start to tremble and hurriedly went over to support her.“Aunty, why don’t we sit at the table over there?”Quinn was about to say something, but when she looked into Ni
Before Ivy could finish her sentence, Nicole hung up the phone.She even blocked the number.......A few days later, the company’s team-building day arrived.The location was in an airsoft field in the suburbs. Twelve people went, three of whom were senior executives from other companies that Stanton Corporation had a relatively good relationship with.However, Nicole never expected Eric to appear here.He looked at Nicole and seemed to want to say something, but he was blocked by Grant, who did not give them a chance to be alone.As expected of her big brother!Nicole was very interested in the game. The clothes were all military-style uniforms, and the weapons were harmless guns and ammunition.She changed faster than the others in the locker room and was blocked by a tall and dark shadow when she came out.Everyone wore a mask, so no one knew who the other people were. Thus, there was no need to show mercy.However, Nicole still recognized the person in front of her.Er
One second after the game started, Eric was already eliminated.No one would expect this even in their dreams.Eric turned around and looked at Nicole, aggrieved. Although he was eliminated, he was very calm and helplessly raised his hands in surrender.Nicole put her gun away and breathed a sigh before snorting coldly.“I don’t want an incompetent teammate!”Then, she went past him and ran to a nearby trench to ambush the other team, swiftly getting into a killer mindset.Everyone was speechless for a moment, but they also got into the game.They could not do anything about it. Eric and Nicole were enemies.They all thought that perhaps Eric calling Grant “Big Brother” had provoked Nicole.That was why she kicked Eric out of the game decisively.Eric stood to the side as a referee, standing on higher ground so he could take in the whole situation.He could see that Nicole was methodical and disciplined, and her body was flexible. Her movements and routes were almost on the
Eric, who returned before he could take two steps, was actually a little angry!Both times, he was eliminated because of Nicole.No one would believe it if she said that she did not do it on purpose.Eric’s gaze was sad and restrained as he looked at Nicole. The two of them confronted each other, and the surrounding people did not dare to watch the show and immediately ran.Nicole also wanted to follow, but Eric blocked her path.“Are you doing this on purpose?”He looked at her with a sullen gaze. His eyes reflected the sunlight. They were deep and dark, surging like a gathering storm.“Can’t afford to lose?”Nicole snorted lightly and deliberately provoked him with some disdain.She won against him twice. Her victory was already assured.She did not need him to say that he would “let her win”.Eric let out a low chuckle. “I can.”He underestimated her!Eric had never been defeated, but when it came to Nicole, he lost completely.Nicole raised her head to look at Eric. H
There was no need to mention anyone else. Eric and Grant were both on the blue team, so the red team was at a disadvantage.However, Nicole’s only target was Eric Ferguson.The wind was picking up.The sound of the wind was everywhere in her ears, mixed with the sounds of walking and running, making it difficult to distinguish between the sounds.Nicole quietly nestled in a corner and secretly took out two blue team members from behind.However, her red team also lost four members.After a fierce battle, Nicole was the only one left on the red team.Eric and Grant were left on the blue team.Nicole thought about it. In order to divert attention, she simply took off the red label on her uniform and threw it away.A blue team member was looking for her at the entrance to the woods ahead, but she did not know if it was Eric or Grant.She slowly and silently approached.Just as she was about to attack the person’s back, there was a sudden chill on her waist as a coldness envelop
