Nicole looked at her phone and had no intention of picking it up.When she got to the small balcony inside, the floor was covered with soft carpets. Lying on it felt like lying on a cloud.However, Nicole could only sit on her wheelchair.Tigger did not hesitate to occupy Nicole’s spot. Its four feet were facing the sky, revealing its stomach. It was smiling as it stared at the vast starry sky.Everyone thought that Tigger had pretty good tastes as an artificial intelligence robot to have such an elegant hobby.Nicole turned off her phone and looked up. The glass of the roof was made of a special material used for telescopes, so the vast Milky Way was magnified at once.Those distant stars seemed to be within reach.It was raining outside, so the raindrops were also magnified as it fell on the glass dome. It was simply spectacular and beautiful.......Ferguson Villa.Ingrid was in the living room, listening to Old Master Ferguson and Eric’s quarrel coming from the study upst
The dim light in the study did not have a trace of warmth at this time.The floor was a mess, and a chill permeated in the air.Eric stood there with his back against the light. His whole body was immersed in darkness.His cold and handsome face was half-lit. His dark eyes were as sharp as a blade as he tried to suppress the coldness in them.Eric truly regretted being soft-hearted and not taking back all of Old Master Ferguson’s power in the beginning.“Do you know what you’re doing?”His voice was deep, rough, and hoarse. Eric gritted his teeth as he looked at Old Master Ferguson.Old Master Ferguson looked at Eric and sneered.He laughed at Eric’s kind-heartedness. Eric was still too young.“How can those little tactics work against Clayton Sloan? I’m just adding fuel to the fire so that he would burn more thoroughly.”If Eric had not made the first move, Old Master Ferguson would not have been able to get the opportunity to do this.Old Master Ferguson glanced at him.“
Old Master Ferguson’s position in Ferguson Corporation was the most meritorious. Back then, his domineering and ruthless means single-handedly brought Ferguson Corporation onto the right track.Faced with so many ambitious shareholders that were fierce and cruel opponents, Old Master Ferguson decisively gave up on his son, Charles, who had a weak character and mediocre qualifications, and selected his grandson, Eric, who was only ten years old at the time.Old Master Ferguson single-handedly promoted Eric and taught him how to deal with the surrounding dangers in the business world.He got Eric enlisted into the army to build his character and let Eric go abroad to experience life.Eric’s excellence was Old Master Ferguson’s most satisfying work.Once Eric returned from his studies abroad, Old Master Ferguson decisively released the power in his hands and paved the way for Eric, then retired to the background.Old Master Ferguson let everyone know that Eric was the heir to Fergus
Eric’s long silence made Ingrid feel worried and afraid.For a long time, Eric coldly snickered. “Forgive who? You?”Ingrid raised her head abruptly and quickly shook her head.“Brother, it has nothing to do with me! I’m not so capable. It’s Grandpa…”Eric’s face suddenly changed. His voice was cold.“I’ve arranged people by Grandpa’s side. He didn’t know what I was doing, but you… What did you do when you went to the office during the day yesterday?”One sentence made Ingrid petrified. Her face instantly turned miserably white.Ingrid did not want Mitchell to tell Eric that she had been there, but she forgot that Mitchell was Eric’s right-hand man, so how could he listen to her orders?She stood there dumbstruck. Her eyes abruptly reddened.“Ingrid, I see that you haven’t learned anything during your time in society. You even learned to lie, so you can go back and continue to do your sales.”Ingrid was shocked and hurried over, crying as she looked at Eric.“Brother, I just
Eric hung up the phone. He started the car and drove in the direction of Stanton Mansion.He drove extremely fast. He did not know how long it had been since he felt this thrill. His blood was surging.When his car stopped at the entrance of the Stanton Mansion, Eric felt cold all over and a little hesitant.He picked up the phone and dialed Nicole’s number once again.Her phone was already turned off.Eric fiercely pounded his fist on the steering wheel. The sharp honk cut through the silent night sky.It also shocked the people at the Stanton Mansion.The butler was about to rest. When he heard the sound, he shuddered in fear and got up to look at the surveillance footage at the door. He saw the familiar Range Rover. It was Eric Ferguson.The butler did not dare to hesitate and went to knock on Nicole’s door.If Nicole did not respond, he could only let Eric wait outside.At this late hour, Nicole was still awake. Tigger opened the door for her, wagging its tail happily.T
Nicole rolled her eyes. Her third brother was very untactful and always brought up inappropriate people at inappropriate times.“Was the trending topic taken down?”Nicole was the best at changing the topic.Kai nodded and excitedly told her the latest situation.“It was removed two hours earlier than the time Clayton said. There’s not even a single trace left. The woman’s account was barred. She left a clarification article saying that she was paid to expose this. She and Clayton weren’t familiar with each other at all. She just interned at the investment bank where Clayton worked. The photo posted was a group photo taken during her internship. She cropped it and made it look like a couple-photo.”Nicole sneered. “She’s looking for trouble?”Kai raised his eyebrows. “Yeah. The tides turned online. Everyone’s scolding this woman for using their sympathy, but Clayton’s quite a unique guy.”“How so?” Nicole was baffled.Kai laughed. “Generally, with these kinds of rumors, the vic
Nicole was very thoughtful in her arrangements. Even if that anti-fan could no longer work in his industry because he betrayed his employer after taking the money, he could still work in a similar industry.Wave Media was the most famous content-creator platform in the industry. It was also the media platform he was most active online.A wildlife vlogger like him never dreamed that he would get this opportunity.The man hesitated and controlled himself from being enticed by such a big slice of pie that fell from the sky.“W-What if you lie to me?”Nicole laughed. “You’re at home, right? In five minutes, the employment contract of Wave Media will be delivered to your house. If you still don’t believe me, I can have a lawyer draw up a contract. I’m paying you for the work you do for me, so I won’t hold you responsible for slandering me previously. Honestly, for this amount of money, do I even need to lie to you?”To others, it was a huge sum of money falling from the sky.However,
Nicole was just about to open her mouth to shout for her third brother and was prepared to kiss the ground when her wheelchair suddenly stopped falling thirty centimeters away from the ground.It seemed that someone grabbed the wheelchair behind her. Immediately after, the man’s strong and sturdy arms reached over and picked her up along with the wheelchair. Nicole did not look up. She could smell the fragrance of smoke and felt a sullen chill.Nicole knew without thinking that the man was not from the Stanton Mansion because no one would dare to surprise her like that.Immediately after, Nicole was placed on the flat ground on the side, and the wheelchair was placed properly and smoothly.Nicole then saw the calm face that suddenly seemed magnified in front of her eyes.Eric Ferguson.‘Was he so impatient from waiting outside that he can’t resist barging in?’The butler and bodyguard at the door saw him running in and had already chased him over.“Miss…”Nicole raised her han
