Yvette also looked at Nicole in surprise. Although Yvette’s gown was also beautiful, Nicole’s dress made her exude such glamour and elegance, especially when she smiled.Julie’s eyes lit up and immediately told the makeup artist to complete Nicole’s look. She then patted Nicole on the shoulder and said, “You need to be the finale.”She did not even give Nicole a chance to object and turned to the staff, ordering them to readjust the sequence.Nicole was dumbfounded. Yvette laughed and went up to her. “Yes, that’s great! Our Nikki Baby should be in the limelight!”Julie dragged Yvette over. “Don’t think you can just slack off… You’ll open the show.”Yvette was puzzled. “Huh?”Once Julie arranged everything, she left the coordinator in charge backstage and went to the front to see the effect of her show.The guests had all arrived. After everyone had exchanged pleasantries, they sat quietly in their seats and waited for the opening walk.Besides the spotlights on the runway, the
When the show was over, the venue immediately resounded with thunderous applause. Julie Nixon was calm and collected as she went on stage to say a few words. Everyone eagerly awaited the after-party.Many media personnel went up and asked Julie who was the model for the finale and whether Julie had hired a supermodel from abroad at a high price.Julie laughed and simply asked someone to call Nicole over. “This model isn’t an international supermodel, she’s my partner, Nicole.”Nicole smiled and nodded calmly. She was still wearing that dress. Everyone eagerly took pictures of her. Cameras flashed continuously, but Nicole was extremely cooperative and just stood there to let everyone take pictures of her.After all, Nicole wanted to help Julie and give her brand good publicity.The invited media were well-known in the fashion industry in the country and abroad. A foreign reporter asked, “The design of this gown looks like a bridal dress. Ms. Nicole, you walked so skillfully in this
The moment Wendy Quade saw Yvette, her expression changed. ‘If Yvette could come, then does it mean that Nicole was also here…? I wasn’t mistaken?’In an instant, Wendy clenched her fist and had her gaze affixed to the woman sitting with her back facing them.“Are you deaf? Come and take a picture with me!” Ingrid was annoyed that she was ignored by a model.Yvette chuckled and looked like she was ready to watch Ingrid make a fool of herself. “Who the hell are you? Why should anyone listen to you?”Ingrid gritted her teeth. “It has nothing to do with you! Mind your own business!”She looked at the model who was still unmoved. “Hey, you! I’m the Young Lady of the Ferguson family. How much do you want to be willing to take a picture with me?”‘What’s so big of a deal?’ Ingrid thought.Ingrid only wanted to show off to her friends. Otherwise, she would not have asked for a photo. In the past, Ingrid was used to others surrounding her and asking her for a picture.Nicole raised her
Hearing Nicole’s words, Wendy Quade frowned slightly. Ingrid Ferguson also did not expect Nicole to have this level of relationship with Share.‘The founder of Ingrid’s favorite brand, Share, was actually Nicole?!’ Ingrid thought.Ingrid did not want to get kicked out by security. If that happened, she would become the laughing stock in tomorrow’s headlines. She coldly snorted. “Why are you so smug? I don’t wanna come back to this sh*tty place!”She gritted her teeth and dragged Wendy away.When they got to the entrance downstairs, Wendy stopped in her tracks. “Wait.”“What’s wrong?”Although Ingrid did not want to leave empty-handed, Nicole would really get the security guards to kick them out if she did not leave on her own accord. That would be more humiliating then.“I think I saw your brother. Why don’t we wait for him?”‘If Eric recognized Nicole, would they meet and rekindle old feelings?’ Wendy thought.Thinking about the change in Eric’s attitude towards her since she
Kai’s body stiffened for a moment. Although he did regret what he just said, he could not take back his words.Julie quickly waved her hand. “No thanks. It’s too extravagant. I won’t even use it.”Nicole was adamant. “No way! We don’t have to use it, but we need one, so you must accept this! Our Mr. Superstar isn’t short of money anyway! Right?” Nicole grinned at Kai.Since Kai was paying for the yacht, Nicole was more than happy.Kai laughed and felt a little helpless. “Yeah, it’s just a yacht. Since Nikki said it, consider this a small gift. It’s certainly not a problem for me to buy it.”‘I must live up to my baby sister’s brag…’Julie was very close to Nicole and knew the Stanton family’s strength, so she did not refuse again.“Thanks, Kai,” Julie said.Kai raised his eyebrows and reached out to touch Julie’s head. “Don’t mention it.”Julie was stunned and blushed faintly.However, Kai quickly looked down at Nicole and spoke dotingly, “Satisfied? Can we go home now?”Nic
The night sky was getting gloomier. When Nicole heard those words, she stopped in her tracks and suddenly felt her blood drain from her body. Keith’s words stabbed into Nicole’s heart like a knife, which made her bleed profusely.The scars Nicole tried her best to hide were uncovered, and she could no longer act as if nothing had happened.She desperately wanted to forget those three years, but those people always had to remind her that her existence was worthless!Kai sneered as he said with an extremely dangerous tone, “Keith Ludwig, are you even human?”He knew that Nicole had a bad time while she was staying with the Fergusons those three years, but he did not know any details because his father did not allow them to inquire about Nicole. Thus, the Stanton brothers dared not touch this subject.Now that a glimpse of Nicole’s past suffering was brought up, Keith’s words instantly angered Kai. ‘So, this is how the princess that we pampered and coddled all this while was treated?
Of course, Nicole could see that Wendy was just pretending.Perhaps Wendy even did this intentionally. That little bit of blood on Wendy’s head in the dim light only magnified others’ fear and worry for her.Julie had kicked Ingrid and Wendy out from the venue a long time ago, but they stayed until now just to put on a show like this?Was Wendy just trying to prove that she was more important in Eric’s heart?Once Wendy was injured, everyone had to revolve around her. Nicole would then be chucked to the side again.Unfortunately, Nicole did not follow the script Wendy intended. Nicole did not get upset, nor did she pretend to be strong. Instead, Nicole hit Wendy.‘This feels great!’ Nicole laughed lightly, then went outside.Kai hooked his lips in satisfaction and did not blame Nicole at all. Instead, he gave her a thumbs up and praised her. “Great! Well done, Nikki! Now, this is the Nicole I know!”‘Not that stupid woman who lived like a coward for the past three years…’A tr
What Keith said to Nicole earlier was infuriating. Wendy Quade most probably got kicked in the head because of that, so they deserved it.The corners of Keith’s lips twitched. He looked at Eric and said, “Is she saying that I don’t have a brain?! What did I say that was so wrong?”Eric raised his eyes, which were deep and dark. His tone was cold. “What do you think?” ‘Well… I admit that I went a little overboard, but that’s only because I was too anxious about Wendy’s life, which was Hendrick’s only dying wish! How would I know that Wendy’s slight bruise looked so serious?’“But still… That woman shouldn’t have hit someone!”‘She must be so angry right now! If I really offended that woman, would she post my nudes in a fit of anger?!’ Eric’s eyebrows were tightly knitted. “Take her to the hospital for a checkup. I have to leave first.”“What?” Keith was surprised. “No, I have something to do too!”‘I need to apologize to Nicole before she remembers that she has my nudes! I’m a
