The other three women were all on the thin side.Sadie frowned, slightly dissatisfied.“The rules can’t change just because you said so…”“It’s all for the sake of fairness…”Eric stood there, annoyed. The chattering women over there were really irritating!When he heard that they wanted to separate him and Nicole, he looked at the fat woman Yuliana and his eyes could not help but turn cold.Just as he wanted to open his mouth to set things right, he suddenly saw Nicole turn the other way.Nicole said, “Then you and Mr. Ferguson will be on one team. I’ll go to the other one.”Yuliana beamed. She did not expect Nicole to agree so easily.It was clear reconciliation between these two was really out of the question.Her chance had come!Nicole jumped into the other boat, and Eric looked at Yuliana with gloomy eyes. She reached out to let him help her, but his gaze only swept over her indifferently. Then, he turned away, his temperament icy.He did not care that the cameras wer
Eric’s gloomy face became gloomy when he saw how happy Nicole was without him.His heart was unbearably suffocated especially when she was with Keith’s ex-wife.Their singing was loud and clear. One side rowed on the river, relaxing, while the other side was gloomy and heavy.After thinking about it, he could not just sit back and wait.He immediately took out his phone, found Nicole’s chatlog, and typed in a few words.“Babe, you sing so well. You’re the best singer in the world!”Nicole heard her phone ring and thought that it was a work emergency, so she picked it up to see.The contents…She wanted to throw her phone into the water.Her expression soured.That son of a b*tch!She sent a voice memo. “If you’re sick then go get cured.”It was an unprecedented honor for Eric to see her reply so promptly.His expression was filled with pleasure.The notification chime for WhatsApp sounded.Except for Eric, Yuliana and the cameraman on the boat could not help but freeze.
Yuliana, who was already cautiously observing Eric, watched as he suddenly stopped. Then, she looked in Nicole’s direction and immediately understood.She hurriedly walked over with a smile, propped one hand on the chair, and winked at Xander.“Oh my! Who prepared such exquisite afternoon tea?”Xander, who was standing at the side, stood up in a gentlemanly manner and went over to pull out the chair for Yuliana.The two of them exchanged a tacit glance.Yuliana thought, ‘He’s quite discerning.’Xander thought, ‘Oh, she’s interested in me!’The next second, a tall and upright figure walked to the vacant spot next to Nicole, raised his foot, and violently kicked it over, his aura cold and appalling.The loud sound instantly silenced the room and was filled up by the man’s sense of oppression instead.Nicole, who was sitting nearest to it, looked calm as ever. There was not a hint of panic on her face.Everyone instantly felt that Nicole was remarkable. If it were someone else s
At the same time, the surroundings quieted down.Everyone’s faces had different degrees of thought and changes.Nicole did not avoid the question. Her expression was like she was in a press conference, focused but dignified.“My marriage with Mr. Ferguson was quite sensational back then, but that wasn’t my intention. There’s no pride in showing off the ugliest side of a marriage, but… We’ve discussed it and decided to be friends or business partners. That isn’t something to regret.”No one noticed that when Nicole answered the question, Eric had tensed with his fists on his knees, clenched tightly and bulging with veins.Her simple and casual words made her position clear.No one noticed that next to her, the man’s arrogant and haughty look had suddenly collapsed. His eyes lowered as he gazed at her with a sorrowful look, his expression tense and ugly.Every time he heard her say such things, he felt as if his heart was suddenly gouged out, making it hurt when he breathed.She
At that thought, Sadie’s bright and charming eyes turned on Eric and she said, “In fact, I think that marriage will restrict a lot of freedom. If two people who are in love can be together, why should they care about their status? If they love each other, they would always be together even if they do not get married. If they don’t love each other, then even if they marry, they’ll just end up divorced. We will meet many people in our lives, so there’s no need to be fixated on one person. If you look around, you’ll find that there’s much more wonderful scenery!”Yuliana slowly sucked in a breath of cold air and subconsciously glanced at Eric’s expression.It was as she expected. ‘Heh. His gaze was so sharp it was as if he wanted to hit someone. Fortunately, she stopped in time!’Nicole felt that what Sadie said was very reasonable. She nodded heavily and encouraged her to continue.Sadie smiled and could not help but grow confident upon seeing everyone agree with her.“I have a diff
Sadie’s expression changed a few times, shocked with a hint of apprehension.Yuliana could not help but smile, feeling a little smug.If Eric was so easy to obtain, she would have gotten him a long time ago. Sadie would not even get the chance.Fortunately, she changed her strategy wisely!Nicole glanced at Eric and said faintly, “She asked you about your views of marriage, not your evaluation of her.Eric glanced away, leaning his body sideways on a propped-up arm. “Our marriage didn’t fail. It was only suspended because of my fault. If you’re willing, I can prove that our marriage is the most perfect.”No one expected Eric to give such a sincere speech in front of everyone.Nicole stood up. Her expression was extremely cold. She looked at Eric indifferently. “Those are big words. Be careful you don’t break your back carrying them.”Perfect, her *ss!Her slender and beautiful figure had almost reached the door.She suddenly heard Eric’s determined voice. “My back is very str
Nicole lowered her eyes slightly and walked over, raising her hand to the side. Her noble and lazy posture made Eric feel inexplicably happy.The temperamental Nicole was really, really cute!Eric immediately handed her the room card. The door opened with a beep...Nicole went in and looked around, secretly sneering in her heart.This hotel under Ferguson Corporation was regarded as a landmark hotel in the city. People would choose this hotel when hosting all kinds of events held by political and business circles, but he still wanted to improve it?It would be great if Stanton Corporation could acquire it!Nicole stood there, shaking her head regretfully.What a shame…Eric frowned at Nicole’s reaction, slightly surprised. “Are you… Dissatisfied?”He raised his hand and looked at his expensive watch, wondering if it was too late to go to a hotel in the neighboring city that specializes in receiving the country’s special guests.Nicole paused slightly and stroked her hair. “It
Dominic’s expression gradually improved. She was looking for Eric.Well, the biggest boss here now was Eric, so Eric was a fatal attraction to these divorced female celebrities, right?Heh…It seems like he had been overthinking!Dominic smiled. “Shouldn’t you ask the front desk directly?”Sadie’s face was a little stiff. It seemed like she had already asked but failed.“I did, but they’re all tight-lipped and won’t tell me anything about Mr. Ferguson’s room, so I could only come to you.“Mr. Young, Mr. Ferguson and Ms. Stanton have no hope of getting back together. If a new couple emerges in our variety show, wouldn’t it become the hottest variety show of the year?Sadie carefully looked at Dominic’s expression. Which producer would not want their program to flourish?Sure enough, Dominic’s eyes brightened in an instant. His smile deepened, but he hesitated for three seconds before he spoke softly.“Mr. Ferguson has a special presidential suite here. It’s on the top floor!”
