Chapter 626 What a Talent
Clayton Sloan pulled the corner of his lips and smiled bitterly. “I can’t believe I got conned. It makes me feel a little demoralized…”For a business elite and Wall Street genius, this knowledge was too much of a fall.Nicole laughed, which instantly lightened up the atmosphere in the car.She took out the iPad she brought along with her. “I can tell you about the topic of the speech.”This meeting was mainly a prospective exchange of market research. The reason why it was important was not because of the meeting itself, but due to the participants that could shake up the stock market, hence influencing the market pattern.There will be a project proposed during the meeting in which Stanton Corporation had been planning for some time that they were very optimistic about.Clayton immediately got into a serious learning mode. His face was very enchanting, modest, and gentle. His temperament was refined and reserved, but not indifferent. He had a refreshing scent on him that did no
Chapter 627 Erratic Man
Midway through the meeting.Nicole received several phone calls and text messages from Xander.She did not answer.His text messages came one after another.[Ms. Stanton, you have to believe me… This is all a trap by Mr. Ferguson and Yuliana. They set me up!][Ms. Stanton, I respect and like you very much. The first time I saw you, I knew that you were unique. I approached you with great respect and sacredness and love you so much…][Ms. Stanton, please save me. I don’t want my career to end. I still have a long way to go in life…]......Nicole swept a glance and immediately felt a gag reflex. She felt extremely disgusted.‘I was so blind! How could I think to support such a rotten person before?!’Without hesitation, Nicole blocked Xander.In the meantime, she also sent a text message to Dominic. [Tell Xander to get lost, the farther the better!]Nicole did not want to care anymore. What was supposed to be her money tree became a value trap. This was simply a big, failed
Chapter 628 Ask For a Scolding
The department head’s face instantly paled as beads of sweat dripped down his forehead. His body began to tremble.The atmosphere in the meeting room was instantly condensed. The others at the table did not dare to breathe loudly as they were afraid of getting implicated.Eric was in a good mood earlier and even comforted the department head who made a mistake prior to this and encouraged him to continue his efforts.However, in the blink of an eye, Eric suddenly became stern, harsh, and unreasonable.Was Eric’s mood swings too sudden, or was his subordinate just too unlucky?Mitchell, who was on the side, also dared not make a sound. In his heart, he silently mourned for this project department head that was chided.Perhaps this was fate.Eric seemed to have fallen into cold sinking darkness. His gloomy gaze swept across that department head.“Send a detailed report to my office before the end of the day. Otherwise, you can hand in your resignation.”After that, Eric did not
Chapter 629 Won the Prize
Nicole was stunned. She thought that it might be related to her and subconsciously became tense and guarded.However, the group of black-clad bodyguards ran past her.‘Phew… I’m not their target. Great!’Nicole was a little tired of walking and saw a rest area in front with not many people. An expensive piano was placed in the middle, so she went over and sat down.When her fingers touched the piano, she suddenly felt an urge to play.She pressed on a few keys, which sounded crisp and pleasant. This piano was pretty nice.Nicole subconsciously began to play a tune. The chords somehow transformed into “Kikujiro’s Summer”. It was a simple and bright tune with fresh and natural notes that reflected her current leisurely mood after shopping.She had not been so relaxed in a long time and was even a little immersed in it.Suddenly, someone sat down next to her, but she was too engrossed in the music to notice.A pair of hands landed on the keys next to hers. The light and pleasant
Chapter 630 The Woman Who Doesn’t Go By the Book
The general manager of the mall spoke excitedly.Nicole and Clayton were unmoved and looked at him calmly.The mall manager did not feel the least bit embarrassed and smiled as he explained.“You two are the lucky couple of the day! Today is the last day of our mall’s activity. You both fully met and exceeded our expectations when you played the duet so perfectly on this ten-million-dollar piano!”The mall manager could tell that this couple were not ordinary people, especially the man’s watch that was worth enough to buy a luxury apartment in the city center. Although the lady was dressed casually and simply, her bag was limited-edition and worth a million dollars.Thus, the mall manager did not want to let go of two big spenders.Nicole raised her eyebrows and was silent for a moment.Women were naturally inclined to gifts, so Nicole was very interested in the prize. However, since this gift was for a couple, and she and Clayton were not a couple, Nicole felt a little embarras
Chapter 631 She Likes Me
The mall manager thought, ‘Why was I so insistent to stuff the prize to this woman, who wanted to refuse earlier?’He instantly felt like he was walking toward his death.The mall manager licked his dry lips and said, “Uh… $50 million is not a small amount, so I’ll have to ask the management…”He said with a guilty conscience.His voice turned hoarse.Nicole blinked. “Aren’t you the general manager? Can’t you make this decision? Otherwise, I can call your boss and ask for it…”She took out her phone as she said this.“Wait! Of course, I can make the decision. Miss, please leave your bank account number and name. I promise that you’ll receive this $50 million later.”The general manager gritted his teeth and made a promise.If this matter reached Eric’s ears, the general manager would lose his job because he violated the lottery and wanted to renege on the promise.Nicole smiled without changing her expression. She put away her phone and left her contact information and accoun
Chapter 632 Everything He Says Is Right
The corners of Mitchell’s lips twitched as he looked at Eric.Mitchell was tempted to say, “President, you’re thinking too much! According to my understanding of Ms. Stanton, she’s willing to spend money to solve her problems.’He opened his mouth, but in the end, he swallowed those words.‘Forget it, everything he says is right!’ Mitchell thought.At that time, Mitchell’s phone chimed. It was the general manager of the mall in the neighboring city who happened to be Mitchell’s ex-classmate. He sent a message to Mitchell asking for help.[Help me! Look what I’ve encountered…]The mall manager sent over two photos and a video.One of the photos was signed with Nicole’s name and her bank account number. The other was a photo of Nicole and another man’s back.The video was an over ten-second clip of them playing the piano.[She… She wouldn’t be THE Nicole Stanton that our president couldn’t get, right? She and the other man won the couple jackpot worth $50 million! My performance
Chapter 633 Get Rich Together
Clayton’s words silenced the surroundings.Nicole froze for a moment.Before the divorce, Nicole did think about that when she was living alone in Imperial Gardens, where she voluntarily imprisoned herself because of that promise.Nicole wondered countless times what would have happened if another man had saved her instead.Would she have passed by the underground fight club on that street corner, gone in, and rescued Eric?Maybe everything would have been rewritten.Nicole lowered her eyes. Her fingers touched the pattern on the cup.“I never think about things that didn’t happen, and I never regret the decisions I made.”It was not Nicole’s style to dwell on the sad past.Even if she made the wrong decision and regretted it, Nicole could only grit her teeth and move on.Would she deny that time of her life when she had a crush on him?No, he did save her many times.She had no regrets after.Nicole’s words stunned Clayton a little. He had wanted to hear that Nicole regre
