Floyd’s mouth twitched. The night was not over yet, but Eric was already giving his New Year greetings?However, Floyd could not just stand still, so he smiled. “Well, thank you. Grant, take Mr. Ferguson to have a seat inside…”Grant glanced at Eric and held out his hand. “This way, Mr. Ferguson…”Eric nodded. “Happy New Year, Big Brother.”The smile on Grant’s face froze as he frowned. “Mr. Ferguson is very sincere…”Then, Grant walked in by himself.Nicole came downstairs and naturally saw Eric.Her expression instantly soured.All the relatives looked at the visiting man in surprise. The young girls watched with hearts in their eyes, excited and in high spirits.Eric stood there, raising his eyes to see Nicole, and his smile finally became gentle from the bottom of his heart.“Happy New Year, Nicole…”Nicole pursed her lips. Her eyes were clear. “You’re very polite for giving us your New Year’s greeting so early, Mr. Ferguson. Forgive our poor hospitality.”Eric smiled.
Xandria’s face changed. “I-I just… He was at the door. Was I supposed to shut him out? Besides, the butler also agreed.”‘It might be better to offer up a scapegoat!’ Xandria thought.Nicole’s voice was cold and did not show her any respect at all.“Really? The butler agreed? Should we call him here to ask if he did?”Xandria’s lips trembled as a trace of abnormality appeared on her face.“What kind of person is Mr. Ferguson? How could we stop him?”“I don’t need you to tell me what kind of person he is. In the future, don’t try to make decisions for matters that have nothing to do with you.”Then, Nicole left without even looking at Xandria.At that point, Nicole did not want to say even nastier words anymore.Xandria should be grateful that it was New Year’s now. Otherwise, Nicole would definitely throw her out.Under the heavy snowfall, the corners of Eric’s lips were curled into a smile as he drove home.A half-frozen man finally saw Eric’s car.Toto could not wait to g
Eric’s words were clearly a slap in Old Master Ferguson’s face!How dare he?!The butler at the side saw this and hurriedly stepped up to dissuade them. “Chairman, don’t be angry. The Young Master didn’t mean any harm. It’s for the good of the Ferguson family.”The butler looked at Eric. “Young Master, the Chairman’s health isn’t good, so you shouldn’t provoke him. When one reaches a certain age, just slight carelessness might cause them to enter the ICU. It’ll be troublesome if that happens.”Eric hesitated and his expression became less provoking.“Sorry, Grandpa. You should go up and rest well…”Eric could only compromise this far.After all, his grandfather watched him grow up. Eric would not be able to explain himself if the old man really entered the ICU.Old Master Ferguson’s expression did not improve. He sat on the sofa to soothe his emotions.“You… Eric, I won’t care about Nicole anymore. Bring your sister back.”Eric raised his dark eyes.Old Master Ferguson’s b
Eric looked at it and laughed coldly, but his face turned red with anger.Those private messages and comments kept growing.The media’s restrictions caused them to find an outlet here with Eric. In any case, they had to express something!‘Who the hell is Fabian? Am I not much better than that idol? How dare they say that Nicole and I are not suitable? Are they blind?’ Eric thought.Out of so many comments, only a few people supported Eric.Eric was so angry that he turned off his phone. He was quiet for a moment. ‘Damn it, I refuse to accept this!’He picked up his phone again and looked at all the heart-wrenching comments like a masochist.Then, he simply replied under the posts.[What? Why can’t I compare to that idol? I have money!][You have no say whether we’re suitable or not. Nicole belongs to me!][Who else besides me is worthy of Nicole? Who else is richer than me?][Thank you for your support, but I don’t need your pity!]......In an instant.The heat that was
Julie frowned. “Lil Michael was just here…”Nicole froze and stood up at once. “Let’s split up and find him.”She went to the garden where Lil Michael loved to hang around most. The dim lights decorated the garden beautifully. To cater to Lil Michael’s preferences, the place was decorated like a fairy tale world.Nicole walked over and vaguely saw a few figures sitting there, chatting.Just as she was about to turn around, she heard someone mention Lil Michael.“Is that child an illegitimate son Nicole had with a man outside?”“I think so. Look at how the Stantons treat that boy. They listen to everything he says and spoil him rotten. How would they be so kind to him if he wasn’t theirs?”“How could Nicole do such a scandalous thing…”“Maybe it was because this matter was exposed that she was thrown out of the Ferguson family!”“But Eric still came to declare his feelings tonight. Why does he still want a woman like that?”“Hehe, rich families joining by marriage is all for t
Nicole looked up. Lil Michael rubbed his eyes. “Pretty Lady, I haven’t given you my present yet. Wait a minute…”She smiled and walked inside slowly.Floyd looked at Nicole reproachfully. “How many times have I told you? It’s cold outside, so you have to put on a jacket when you go out…”Nicole smiled and said nothing.Floyd turned to Kai, who was fawning over Julie, and was immediately furious.“What if your sister falls sick? Don’t you know how to look out for her?”Kai was bewildered. “Wha- What did I do this time?”Julie could not help but laugh and gave Kai a push. “Go get a shawl for Lil N!”Kai touched his head, obediently took the shawl, and was about to drape it over Nicole.However, she blocked him and avoided his hand.Only then did Kai realize that her body was very cold. Her lips were also starting to turn purple.It was no wonder that Floyd was angry!“Why did you run out without putting on more clothes? Do you want our beloved father to kill your third brothe
Nicole did not know what to say for a moment. Lil Michael’s gifts really got more and more expensive!Everyone looked at the necklace and knew at a glance that it was not an ordinary product.“That must be expensive.”“Yeah, it’s beautiful. I don’t think I’ve seen it on the market before…”......Lil Michael smiled. “It’s not expensive. It only costs 880 million. I have money anyway, so I want to give it to Pretty Lady, because she’s the prettiest girl in the world!”Floyd laughed. “Oh, you little boy. You have a good eye…”Floyd was happy whenever anyone praised his daughter.Everyone instantly looked at Lil Michael differently.They originally thought that he was just an ordinary child being fostered here.However, how could an ordinary child give someone a gift worth $880 million?Nicole put the pearls away. In a roundabout way, this necklace ended up in her hands. What a twist of fate!However, she could not accept such an expensive gift. She would give the money to Cla
“Yes, yes. I know that you look down on us for being poor, Nicole, but we’re still a family. Why are you so aggressive?”They still had to bite the bullet and deny it.Everyone looked at them and then at the cold-faced Nicole.To the side, Noah coughed twice. “Nicole, don’t be willful. Why are you throwing a tantrum tonight? We’re all relatives here!”Nicole pursed her lips and laughed softly.“I know, Uncle Noah. It’s because we’re relatives that my father and brothers are staying up and accompanying everyone to celebrate the New Year instead of sleeping. It’s because we’re relatives that we’re using the best things to entertain them and prepare elaborate gifts. However…”Her tone changed as she looked at the two women.“Sorry, but if being relatives means that we can hurt each other, then I’d rather disown them.”In an instant, the room became even more silent.No one except Nicole and the two women knew what happened.“What exactly happened?”“Yeah, what’s going on?
