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
Chapter 634 Self-Indulgence
The moonlight was beautiful. Nicole and Clayton finished their coffee and walked back to the hotel along the small path.Nicole thought that Clayton was just walking her back to the hotel like a gentleman, but when she got to her room, Clayton did not look like he had the intention to leave. She then watched in amazement as he took out a room card from his pocket.‘Oh, he’s staying in the opposite room…’Nicole raised an eyebrow. It was not uncommon to stay in the same hotel. He was just walking her back on the way to his room.Clayton smiled and watched her open the door. “Goodnight.”Nicole nodded. “Sweet dreams.”She went in and let out a sigh of relief before sending Logan a text and washing up for bed.Nicole turned off her phone before going to bed so that no one would disturb her sleep.The moonlight was gentle, hazy, and tranquil.Early in the morning, the alarm clock she set woke her up.Nicole freshened up and heard the doorbell.It was Logan.He handed her the tw
Chapter 635 When Will You Remarry?
Nicole got out of the car indifferently. She expected the reporters’ arrival, so she did not panic and came prepared.Once she was outside, she smiled faintly and followed the bodyguard towards the lobby of her office building.The reporters did not want to let go of this opportunity and bombarded her with questions.“Ms. Stanton, is the city-wide display last night your confession to Mr. Ferguson? Are the two of you going to remarry each other?”“Ms. Stanton, may I ask what the phrase ‘I, Nicole Stanton, would like to thank Eric Ferguson, the best person in the world’ means?”“Ms. Stanton, were you with Mr. Ferguson last night?”“Ms. Stanton, can you tell us about the expenses spent last night?”......Nicole kept a light smile. Her hair was casually tied up to reveal her small ears as well as the delicate and low-profile but expensive earrings.She was inadvertently modeling the jewelry on her in every movement and shot of her side profile.Just when everyone thought that N
