Ingrid changed from her usual arrogant and domineering attitude. Instead, she walked over and apologized.“Nicole, I was ignorant in the past and did a lot of wrong things because I didn’t know better. Thinking about it now, I really regret it. I specially asked my grandpa to bring me here so I could apologize to you face-to-face. I was wrong in the past. Can you forgive me?”Ingrid stood there obediently, her gaze flickering to Eric’s face from time to time.If not for Eric’s obsession with Nicole and Ingrid’s desire to go back to the Ferguson family, Ingrid would not take the initiative to visit Nicole for New Year’s!However, in order to return to the Ferguson family, Ingrid could only bear with it because she did not want to go back to the days where she had a meager salary every month and had to acquiesce to people’s whims.Nicole sat there and smiled with a cool expression.“Don’t be silly, Ms. Ferguson. I’ve already forgotten what you did before. It’s best for everyone to
In Stanton Mansion.Everyone obviously relaxed after Eric left.Maverick and Molly personally cooked breakfast for everyone.Needless to say, this was definitely not Maverick’s idea.It must be Molly who wanted to find a chance to “prove herself”.Julie and Kai helped out from the side, and Lil Michael was having his morning lesson in the study.As usual, Grant held a regular meeting with the foreign executives before coming downstairs slowly.Nicole was sitting on the sofa nibbling on an apple when she saw Grant and greeted him.“Big Brother, are you going to help out in the kitchen?”She raised her hand and pointed.Nicole had never seen Grant in the kitchen before, so it was quite rare.Grant hesitated for three seconds and shook his head. “No.”Nicole sighed in disappointment and smiled. “Big Brother, you’re going to be the only one who’s still single in this family. You have to hurry up…”Grant frowned. “There’s still you and Kai, right?”It was clearly only Maverick
Noah looked like the breakfast porridge was especially hard to swallow.For the first time, Nicole felt sympathy for this old man.He did not have hypertension, right?Floyd had the same expression.After wiping his mouth, Floyd smiled and uttered some long-prepared words of praise.Nicole and Kai were dumbfounded upon hearing him!Nicole thought to herself, ‘How scared is Dad that Molly won’t want Maverick?’Grant simply took a tiny spoonful and refused to touch it again.Sure enough, the smartest person in the family was always Grant!Molly watched the family admire her cooking skills in satisfaction, especially Floyd, who made her feel extraordinarily satisfied.Maverick looked at his hypocritical family and ate the toast made by Kai with an expressionless face.Ever since he saw Molly put in salt instead of sugar, he felt that he could not let Molly cook anymore in the future.This meal was the first and last!After breakfast, everyone drank several glasses of water.
Some rich women and celebrities liked to wear large diamonds to show off their unique identities.It was as if the larger the diamond, the nobler they were.However, Nicole’s ring was just a one-carat diamond. It looked very inconspicuous, but it was delicate, dazzling, and radiant.On her hand, no one believed that it was a cheap product.Soon, the netizens used their strong detective skills and their keen eyes to discover the new product to be launched by Stanton Corporation: The Single!This diamond ring named “The Single” was specially designed and polished to the highest international standard.It had a price point that was acceptable to everyone but with an exquisite design. It looked low-key as it was mysteriously worn on Nicole’s hand.It attracted the intense interest of the netizens in an instant.[Woah. A CEO can wear jewelry that’s not on the market? I’m so envious!][Only President Nicole could have such a simple and neat response. Long live the single gentry!][
In the new year, Grant went to work earlier than everyone else. He went to the office two days in advance to arrange things.Nicole declined the invitation to go to work together on the pretext that she had to accompany Julie abroad to find Roman.The two ladies and Kai toured around for two days before they followed Julie to Milan.Since Roman inexplicably disappeared on New Year’s Eve and did not answer his phone, Julie did not take the initiative to contact him.However, the strange thing was that Roman did not take the initiative to contact Julie either.Only then did Julie start to suspect that Roman was hiding something from her.When Nicole and Julie decided to go to Milan to find Roman, Kai jumped up and down in excitement and insisted on going together. No one was able to stop him.Nicole saw through Kai’s motive at a glance, but fortunately, Julie was not in the mood to wrangle with him. The three of them went to Milan by plane.After getting off the plane.Julie’s e
It was clear that the woman had just woken up, similar to the other woman at the door. She draped her arms over Roman’s shoulder ambiguously. “Roman, who is it?”Roman shuddered with fear and immediately pushed the woman away.“What’s wrong?” The woman asked.Roman’s face changed dramatically. “Get inside now…”He pursed his lips and was about to walk towards the door when the silent Julie spoke up.“Get dressed and go down to the lobby. We’ll wait for you there.”There was no emotion in her voice.However, Nicole felt that it was impossible for any woman to be too happy if she encountered something like this.Then, Julie turned and left.Nicole followed her. When she turned around, she saw Kai still standing there, looking at Roman inside with cold eyes.Julie borrowed the hotel’s office to print the documents.Less than ten minutes later, they waited downstairs for Roman.At that moment, Roman had changed into clean and tidy clothes, looking as well-groomed as he always d
Julie laughed and reminded Roman in a cool tone. “When I promoted you, you were just a newcomer as well. Without my recommendation, do you really think that you’re capable enough to walk on that runway?”She bluntly showed him the industry’s unspoken rules.If she could hold him up to the sky, she could also drop him like a hot potato.“Ability is certainly important, but when it comes to people like you who have the ability but are still struggling, you’re the only one who stands out from others. Roman, you’re the first newcomer who signed with my company. I said that I would spare no effort to help you, and I kept my word.”Julie smiled as her tone became cold.“However, from today onwards, you’re on your own…”At that point, she did not even want to say the words “let’s break up” to him. She simply gave up on him.She smiled and stood up, looking at Nicole. “Let’s go. I can’t let you come here for nothing. Let’s go shopping. I’ll pay for whatever you like!”Nicole got up wit
Behind them, Kai came over with two cups of ice cream and urged them. “Here, rest for a while…”Nicole took it and sat down. Julie gestured to a new dress in front of her, looking very satisfied.Kai said, “Wow, it’s beautiful! It’s a nice style and color. Go ahead and try it on…”Julie nodded.Nicole looked at him. “Did you hear?”Kai raised his brows. Nicole laughed and said, “You look like you’re not curious at all. Why do I feel like you had something to do with this…?”Before Nicole could finish, Kai covered her mouth and shot her a warning look.“If you ruin my plan, you’d better give me back my black card!”Nicole’s smile deepened. Sure enough, her guess was correct.Kai would not remain unconcerned. He would definitely use today’s adultery incident to push forward!“I’m casting a long line to catch a big fish, understand?”Nicole smiled meaningfully. “Yes, yes, yes. Turns out that the big boss behind the scenes is actually you. You sure are pulling out all the stops
