After a long silence, a deep and upset voice finally came from the living room.“When did that happen?”When they turned back, they saw Kai’s bloodshot eyes that were filled with restraint and shock.Julie laughed and looked indifferent. “Not long ago. Roman and I have known each other for so long. We got along well, so we decided to be together. I guess we fell in love over time.”Kai’s handsome face was incredibly gloomy. His fists were clenched tightly, so much so that the veins on his arms were bulging.He was exasperated.Nicole saw the bad situation and immediately cleared her throat. “I just mentioned it in passing. Jules, you should’ve told me earlier, then I wouldn’t have asked.”Julie smiled and glanced at Roman with a gentle smile.“I asked him to come over so that I could tell you.”Julie did not expect to be interrupted by Nicole’s sudden question.Nicole said, “Congratulations! I’ll always support your decision.”“Thanks.”Nicole smiled and felt a little compl
Kai questioned Nicole’s methods, but since Nicole was Julie’s bestie, she would understand Julie best. Thus, Kai had no choice but to half-heartedly do as he was told.Nicole was on the trending topics for three days, during which Stanton Corporation’s and Ferguson Corporation’s stocks soared to such heights because of Nicole’s hype alone. Everyone was envious.Many high society ladies followed in Nicole’s footsteps and intentionally got paparazzi to sneak shots of them. They also wanted to use this opportunity to become bigwigs in the business and entertainment circles.Unfortunately, none of them created much of a splash.Every time one was photographed, it would be brought out and compared with Nicole.[How can they be so shameless to buy the trending topics with that figure? Do they think that we’re stupid?][They can’t even compare to our career-focused President Nicole!][These high-society ladies should just concentrate on spending money. How can commoners like us afford
Eric frowned while Old Master Ferguson spoke unhurriedly.“With your slow and indirect methods, I’m afraid that she’ll only take one look at you when she’s unmarried at 40 or 50 years old. By then, it’ll be too late and you’ll just waste your time for nothing. It’s better if you can do something irrevocable and get her pregnant, then she’ll have no choice but to be with you.”Eric’s face was cold and sullen for a moment.His eyes were sharp and cold as he looked at Old Master Ferguson. His voice was icy. “She’s Nicole Stanton!”Nicole was not a pushover that would not fight back when she was bullied.With the whole Stanton Corporation behind her, was she a regular woman who could be controlled at will?Offending Stanton Corporation would just leave both companies in defeat.Old Master Ferguson let out a cold laugh.“Of course I know that she’s Nicole Stanton. It’s because of her identity that the Stanton family can’t afford to lose their reputation. We can only use this necessa
Old Master Ferguson’s body shook viciously. He turned back and stared at Eric with a deadly glare, seemingly in disbelief.“You…”Eric called for someone to come in. “Send the Old Master back to the Ferguson Villa.”After that, Eric did not look at his grandfather again.Old Master Ferguson’s face was red with anger. Eric was the grandson that he was most proud of and the heir that he had spent all his efforts to train.Eric was different from his father, Charles Ferguson, who was conservative, cowardly, and had no ambition.Since Eric was young, he was smart and bold, so Old Master Ferguson focused on cultivating Eric to be his successor. The company was handed to Eric when he was of age, surpassing Charles. Thus far, Eric was very outstanding.Until now, Old Master Ferguson suddenly felt that he had grown old.He did not have any ability to make Eric listen to him anymore.After Old Master Ferguson left, Eric sat on the chair tiredly with his brow knitted. The dim light seem
The bar manager was stunned by Nicole’s.Such an elegant and young woman wanted to listen to this old-fashioned song?However, since she was the paymaster, her words were decree!The bar manager dared not to show his surprise and looked at her with a smile as if he was looking at a mountain of gold.“Of course! What else do you need?”“Anything I need can be satisfied?” Nicole raised her eyebrows.“Our customers’ needs are our motivation to improve ourselves.”The bar manager smiled. Everything could bow to money.Nicole said, “Turn up the volume then! Who can hear it with such a low volume? The lighting is also too dark to see anyone. Also, I want the blueberry cheesecake from Katelyn’s and luwak coffee from Banley’s…”She pursed her lips and thought that she should not go overboard. “That’s all. Is that possible?”The bar manager looked at her dumbfounded for a full minute.He instantly regretted saying those words.However, thinking about how she used hundreds of thousan
The bar manager rushed down to help the person up. “Young Master Ludwig!”Everyone surrounded Keith in a tight circle.Nicole snorted coldly while Keith trembled.The surrounding people gossiped as they watched.“It’s over… Young Master Ludwig isn’t someone who could be offended! He certainly won’t let go of this woman…”“Yeah, will Young Master Ludwig call the police and falsely accuse her?”“Manager, what should we do? Should we give this woman away?”Keith struggled to open his eyelids and unlocked his phone.“Call and ask my wife to pick me up... This song is very good. Don’t look for trouble!”Keith could not afford to offend Nicole, so he had to disassociate himself from her.At that thought, Keith somehow passed out.The bar manager shuddered and picked up Keith’s phone to make a call for someone to pick him up.Nicole said in a cold and clear voice, “He’s divorced, so get his friend to come and pick him up.”With that, she found Eric’s number on Keith’s phone and t
Nicole suddenly froze at Yvette’s words.Yvette came next to Nicole and explained in a whisper.“These people are no match for that guy. Just rest assured and give him a chance to perform!”Nicole frowned.Not even a minute later, the situation reversed.Those colorful-haired hooligans screamed miserably. Some fled while some yelled to call the police.Nicole said, “Is it their first day in the gang? Why would they call the police?”Yvette also looked at those hooligans with disgust. “These gangsters just get weaker by the year. How can such wimps be in a gang?”Clayton still looked gentle and elegant, but his clothes were a bit messy, so he looked a bit more cold and unrestrained.Yvette waved her hand. “Hey handsome, you’re not hurt, right?”Clayton smiled implicitly. “No.”He looked at Nicole, picked up the phone that was thrown on the ground, and handed it to her.“Your phone is broken. I’ll buy you a new one.”Nicole took over her phone. It was indeed broken and turne
Nicole raised her eyebrows. “Mr. Sloan, I didn’t expect that you like going to bars.”Clayton frowned. “Did I give off the impression that I like quiet places?”“You just look like the type that listens to symphonies…”Clayton said, “Are you saying that I’m old and lonely?”Nicole pursed her lips. “Don’t be so self-abasing.”Clayton was speechless.In the next second, the two of them involuntarily laughed out loud.Ten minutes later, they arrived at the Stanton Mansion.Yvette probably gave them a call, so Kai stood shivering at the door, waiting for Nicole.The butler opened the gates, so Clayton drove straight inside.Kai sneezed and went over to open the door for Nicole.“You’re back so late and you’re drunk?”Nicole raised her eyebrows and went around to reach out. “Mr. Sloan, come in for a bit. Lil Michael should still be awake.”Since he saved her, there was no reason to send him away after he drove her home.Clayton pondered for a moment, nodded, and followed him i
