Nicole was obviously on guard. If Sean Moore sent Yvette home, Yvette would be walking into a lion’s den.Yvette also did not want to have any entanglement with Sean. Anyway, since the contract was not signed, why would she still waste her time to please him?Dream on!“No, thanks. We’ve all had too much to drink tonight, so let’s go back separately.”Yvette took Nicole’s arm. “Let’s go?”Before they left, Yvette went inside to apologize to the rest of the guests, then instructed her assistant to wrap up the aftermath. She then took her things and strutted out.When Yvette reached the door, she had a smile on her face but did not look much better.Before Nicole could ask if Yvette was uncomfortable, Nicole saw that Grant also followed them out.Yvette smiled and was just about to go up to say hello when she saw another person behind Grant.It was a woman who looked extremely gentle and beautiful.“Aida?”Grant had been cold-faced until he turned around and showed a warm smil
No one said it explicitly, but Nicole knew Yvette’s heart. Since Yvette did not say it, Nicole pretended not to know.Grant’s attitude toward Yvette was always based on the fact that she was Nicole’s best friend. There was no difference between the way Grant treated Yvette and Julie.Grant was indifferent to any woman who offered him attention, and Nicole always thought that it would be very difficult for him to get a girlfriend.However, what Nicole saw today showed that there seemed to be exceptions, like Aida Webber.Yvette could not stand it any longer. She suddenly hunched over, squatted down, and hugged herself.Her shoulders were trembling because she was crying.It was the most desperate silent cry.Nicole sighed.She naturally favored her best friend, but she could not possibly force Grant to like Yvette.Nicole squatted down next to Yvette without saying a word.Yvette’s sobs made Nicole think about some sad past. She suddenly felt a stinging pain in her heart that
Nicole pointed to the car that was parked just a few steps away. “No need. My driver will send us. Goodbye.”As she said that, Nicole took advantage of the shadows in the night to block Yvette behind her and pulled Yvette into the car.Eric was only preoccupied with Nicole and would not pay any attention to the person next to her.Thus, Eric did not notice anything wrong at all.Nicole was just about to close the door when a big hand stopped her.His fingers were slender and beautiful, but strong.Half of Eric’s face was sunk in the shadows. The side of his face was dark and handsome. He looked like he had something to say.Nicole looked at him.Eric struggled for a long time before he gritted his teeth and said in a deep and hoarse voice, “Nicole, will you hate me if I appear so often? I just want to see you. I don’t want to cause you any trouble…”His voice was cautious.Nicole froze for a moment and stared at his face for a long time.Are these words that Eric Ferguson wo
Yvette suddenly smiled with a hint of despair.She turned around and walked inside, then took out a few bottles of expensive red wine from the wine cabinet and put them on the table.Nicole sighed. “It’s not like you can control it.”Yvette was silent for a moment. She suddenly slapped herself in the face, hard as hell.Nicole’s heart trembled as she went over to stop Yvette.“Yvette!”Nicole was heartbroken to see Yvette like this.Yvette was usually the most carefree and spontaneous one, but once the secret in her heart was revealed, her emotions were like floodwater that could no longer be controlled.A flash of disgust crossed Grant’s eyes when he saw Yvette’s passionate kiss with Sean Moore, which Yvette keenly noticed.Yvette could no longer stay calm.She knew that there was no hope for her.In Grant’s world, Yvette had never been in the game.If Yvette had not been Nicole’s best friend, Grant would not have even made a point to remember her name.Yvette poured a gl
Nicole frowned, then laughed. Yvette’s words reflected her temper – straightforward but also sharp.“What’s more, perhaps last night I was only so sad because I was drunk and lost the contract. Luckily you were by my side and didn’t let me embarrass myself. Otherwise, how can I meet people in the future?”Whether what Yvette said was true or not, Nicole could hear that Yvette truly intended to let go of her love for Grant.Nicole went over to hug Yvette and sighed. “Don’t worry, I’ll introduce you to a better man! There are millions of men in the world. Besides, making money is the most important. It’s not worth wasting your time on such things!”Yvette was speechless, but what Nicole said seemed quite reasonable.She needed time to digest these on her own, so Nicole left early to go to the office.Nicole had spare clothes in her office. After she changed into a new outfit and put on light makeup, Nicole looked refreshed and stunning.Logan knocked on the door and came in. He re
The meeting room was very silent.No one spoke up first.Eric sat there without a care or a trace of panic. No one knew what he was thinking.He had plenty of patience.Whoever spoke first would lose the first opportunity.In the end, Old Master Ferguson could not resist.Old Master Ferguson narrowed his eyes. His cloudy eyes revealed a refined light and sharpness.“Although you’ve grown up, you’re still too young, Eric. I’ve discussed this with several shareholders. You’re not quite suitable for this position, so I’ve decided to convene a board meeting to change the leader.”Old Master Ferguson was concise and did not even bother to be a little euphemistic. He just stated the purpose clearly.Change the leader.A sidekick of the Ferguson family that was next to Old Master Ferguson coughed to ease the situation perhaps because he felt that this was too merciless.“Eric, the Chairman means to send you to study abroad. You can take a break for a while. When you come back from
Quinn and Ingrid, who had been out of the country for a long time, appeared in front of everyone.The crowd was slightly shocked.Quinn cried as soon as she saw Old Master Ferguson and ran to him.“Dad, you have to help me! Eric sent me away. He no longer cares about this family. He was born a rebel and simply doesn’t care about the rest of the Ferguson family’s survival! Even if he’s my son, I can’t put up with this anymore!”Quinn was Eric’s biological mother. Now that she came out to accuse Eric, the others felt that Eric could not even fend for himself.Eric’s face was calm and cold with a sharp chill in his eyes. He looked at Quinn without a change in expression.Ingrid was well-behaved because she feared Eric’s power and dared not do anything.Quinn braced herself and wanted to teach her son a lesson.She cried and looked at Eric, then looked at the others.“My husband still has some shares in his hand. I officially endorse the Chairman’s decision on my husband’s behalf.
Those shareholders present instantly turned pale.When they were working for Old Master Ferguson back then, Old Master Ferguson was sentimental and turned a blind eye to their acts of accepting bribes.Thus, they were bold and did not bother to cover up their tracks.As long as the company did not raise objections, they could continue to accept bribes.Once Eric came to power, he cut off their source of income even though he did not pursue their responsibility for previous acts. Eric also consolidated the power of the Ferguson Corporation.They had suppressed their grievances for many years.When they thought it was all in the past, Eric secretly left evidence.Right in front of them was the evidence of their crimes, which was enough to make them squat in jail for a lifetime.They were drenched in a cold sweat at this moment. What qualification did they have to take sides between Old Master Ferguson and Eric?Not many of these shareholders, who could not even fend for themselv
