Chapter 15 Pour Wine

last update Last Updated: 2021-09-27 16:00:18
Ingrid Ferguson, who was gambling her money away in Germany on the other side of the Atlantic, was oblivious to the fact that news of her stealing her family’s jewelry went viral back home.

Her reputation was ruined. Once Ingrid returned to the States, the ladies in her elite circle looked at her with contempt.

Moreover, the person who started all of this was Nicole, who they had kicked out of the Ferguson family.

Now that Ingrid saw Nicole in this restaurant, she clenched her teeth in anger. In the past, Ingrid looked down on Nicole’s unknown origins and walked all over her. When she saw Nicole again, she went to find the restaurant manager.

The manager heard the commotion and rushed over. All guests who came to this restaurant had reservations and were all influential people that he could not afford to offend.

“Ms. Ferguson, I’m really sorry…”

Ingrid glared at Nicole and wanted to slap her a few times to relieve her anger.

“She’s affecting my mood for dinner. Get her out of here! We’re your VIP customers!”

The manager turned around and was shocked to see Grant Stanton’s handsome face turn glum. The lady beside Grant Stanton had a faint smile on her face. She looked so beautiful and regal with her long wavy hair draped at her back. She had glimmering eyes and stunning features and did not look the slightest bit affected by Ingrid Ferguson’s outburst.

The manager hurriedly went over and respectfully bowed to greet them. “Welcome, Mr. Stanton. Your table is ready. This way, please.”

Ingrid’s face changed as she surveyed Grant Stanton. A trace of amazement flashed across her eyes, but when she saw that he was holding Nicole protectively, she frowned in dissatisfaction. “Hey! Did you not hear me? Get them out of here!”

Quinn sized up Nicole with disdain and echoed on the side. “Yeah, she should take a look at herself in the mirror! How dare she come here? Nicole, do you think you can be arrogant with us after finding yourself a sugar daddy? A woman who’s kicked out of the Ferguson family doesn’t have the right to show up here!”

Grant sneered. His oppressive aura was overwhelming. “Kicked out of the Ferguson family? Your ability to twist a story is pretty impressive! When did the Fergusons become so shameless?” He was furious and wondered what kind of life Nicole had when she was staying with the Fergusons.

Quinn froze. Her face turned red with anger as she looked at the manager and ordered. “What are you still doing standing here? I don’t want to see them!”

The manager’s face sank. He spoke decisively, “Mrs. Ferguson, Ms. Ferguson, Mr. Stanton is a major shareholder of our restaurant, so if you don’t want to see them, you may leave.”

Quinn and Ingrid were stupefied, and their expressions kept changing. Nicole chuckled. Her gaze was clear and indifferent.

Nicole turned to Grant. “Ignore them. It’s just a meal, so there’s no need for this impasse. I have something to say to the two of them, so you can go in and wait for me.”

Grant looked indignant, but when he thought about the fact that Nicole was a changed woman, he felt reassured that she could deal with this situation.

With a slight nod, Grant turned and walked in. He was astonishingly obedient.

The remaining Quinn and Ingrid were not afraid of Nicole. Ingrid sat there and snorted coldly. “At least you’re still self-aware. Our family won’t care who’s your new sugar daddy. My brother has never once fancied you, so I can make you vanish from Atlanta in a minute!”

Nicole looked down and smiled. Her eyes were indifferent. “Then… What do you want?”

“How about this… Pour me a glass of wine and apologize. I’m sure you’re used to serving others like this. Didn’t you do this often when you were staying with us? I’ll let you off the hook this once if you serve me well.”

Ingrid raised her eyebrows and snorted coldly as she waited for Nicole to bow to her and admit her mistake.

Nicole laughed, went up to pick up the decanter, then skillfully poured out a glass of wine and handed it over.

Ingrid hooked her lips in disdain. Before her hand could touch the wine glass, she felt a chill over her head.

Every drop of wine in the glass that Nicole was holding spilled on Ingrid’s head. Before Ingrid had time to scream or stand up, Nicole pressed her down on the shoulders. Nicole shoved Ingrid and said close to her ear, “Ms. Ferguson, remember this. I was the one who brought up the divorce. I’m the one that doesn’t want anything to do with your family. If you dare bend the truth, I’ll show you which one of us will vanish from Atlanta!”

    Nicole walked away in style. Ingrid’s face was pale, and before she could react, Quinn cursed loudly on the side and told the waiter to clean up the mess.“Is this b*tch Nicole crazy?! How dare she do this to you?”Quinn spoke viciously. In the blink of an eye, Nicole had already been led by the manager to the VIP room on the other side of the restaurant.Ingrid’s hair and clothes were soaked through with red wine. She looked wretched. When she returned to her senses, she was so infuriated that she wanted to go after Nicole to settle the score, but she was stopped by the waiter. “Miss, do you need a change of clothes?”The surrounding patrons stared at the miserable-looking Ingrid, who stomped her foot indignantly. “I won’t let her get away with this!”......Grant Stanton was in a bad mood after that encounter, but Nicole was not affected in any way. She looked up at Grant and smiled. “G, I have a shopping date with Yvette later, do you wanna join us?”The man gave her a sidelo

    Eric Ferguson watched as Grant Stanton’s car gradually drove away with narrowed eyes and a sullen expression.The divorced Nicole was like a derailed train. He simply could not figure out which direction she was heading.In the past, Nicole would be very cautious around him, but now, she even dared to say those ungracious words fearlessly.Ingrid was reluctant to let Nicole get away so easily and wanted to stop their car, but Eric yanked her back.“That’s enough!”“Brother, how can you side with an outsider? Nicole bullying me is the same as disrespecting our family! That ungrateful b*tch forgot who fed, clothed, and accommodated her these past three years. She needs to be taught a lesson!”“Ingrid Ferguson, the jewelry in the safe at Imperial Gardens are all for Nicole. Why did you take them without permission?” Eric reminded her. Although he had not taken the initiative to give it to Nicole, everything at the Imperial Gardens belonged to him and Nicole.“Brother, I’m your sist

    Ingrid tugged on Eric’s arm. “Brother, you have to help me… Didn’t Nicole take your money to support her lover? She clearly has an affair with that man…”Eric shrugged Ingrid off of his arm. His tone was sullen as he coldly spat out. “That man is Grant Stanton from West City. He’s someone you can’t afford to mess with.”He began to be doubtful. ‘Was the divorce not just my problem? Perhaps the entire Ferguson family is the problem…’Ingrid was stupefied. Although she had never met Grant Stanton, every woman in the elite circle knew that he was the most eligible bachelor in West City. He was so mysterious and noble. Countless women would bend over backward just to marry this man, but Nicole was with him?She was vexed. Since her brother did not back her up, she could only turn to others for help. Ingrid immediately made a phone call. “Keith, Nicole bullied me. You have to help me…”......At Grant Stanton’s office in the Stanton Tower, Nicole watched as Grant made her a cup of cof

    “Since you’re here, you don’t have to leave just yet. Why don’t you accompany me for a drink?” The man’s gaze was lecherous as he flashed a cunning smile. His tone was half-threatening and half-coaxing.Yvette was already tipsy. The man was holding her neck and looked like he could drag her away at any time.Nicole looked straight at the man and said calmly, “Let her go.”The man hooked his lips smugly and beckoned to her. “Come here and drink this, then I’ll let her go.”Nicole knew without having to think that the drink must have been spiked.Even so, she did not hesitate and walked over, but an onlooker discouraged her. “Miss, don’t go over first. Call the police. This guy is a notorious gang leader.”‘Even a gangster dares to bully me now?’ Nicole turned to look at the other guy and said, “Thanks for your concern, but don’t worry.”She was fed up and laughed instead of getting angry. “If I go over, you’ll release her?”“Sure. Come over then…”The man smiled lewdly and th

All those people online are berating you again!”Nicole paused slightly. “Berating me? Why?”Yvette showed Nicole the video that the paparazzi posted.

She did not want to be targeted the moment she took office. Just as she was about to ease the tension in the room, Samantha stood up apprehensively with a flushed face.“President Stanton, I’m sorry for my transgression. I respect the company’s decision and will work well with Ms. Nicole.”“Good. Meeting adjourned.”Grant Stanton did not say much.

There was a kind of wild and exquisite beauty to it.Nicole shook her head and could not help but laugh.“I liked collecting these a few years ago, but I’ve restrained myself now.

    Jade’s rudeness made Floyd’s face darken.Nicole twitched the corner of her mouth indifferently.“The shares of Stanton Corporation belong to the Stanton family. Back then, Uncle Noah signed his shares over to the company so that he would only enjoy the dividends. Now that he has left the company, he will not be able to enjoy the dividends. Aunt Jade, your plan has failed. These shares aren’t part of your property division. Even if they are to be divided, the interests of the company come first.”Jade’s complexion was dull.“Then what should I do? If he goes to jail, how will I survive? I don’t care!

We’re here to discuss how to rescue Uncle Noah!”Jade glanced at her in surprise and disbelief.“Then… What did you discuss?”Clayton smiled inexplicably. His warm gaze fell on Nicole, and he looked like he was watching a good show.Nicole sighed.“Actually, we have consulted a lawyer. The worst-case scenario is the death penalty. After all, he killed two people. But there is a way. Uncle Noah was married to you back then, right? As long as you come forward to testify that Uncle Noah has been with you all the time, so he didn’t have a chance to commit those crimes, there may be a glimmer of hope!”Jade’s face turned pale instantly, and she stood up in shock.“You… You want me to give a false statement?
