Eric instantly understood.The dark color in his eyes suddenly dissipated and he looked at Nicole beside him expectantly.However, Nicole only took out her phone calmly, opened a messaging app, sent her location to someone, and then looked at them. “My third brother will be here soon. You don’t mind if I wait in the car for a few minutes, right? After all, it’s quite cold outside.”They wanted her to walk back?Did they want her to freeze to death?Eric did not say anything. His eyes looked heavily at Toto.Not only were they unable to be alone, he even lost the chance to send her home!Toto was really useless!Toto lowered his head sheepishly, touching and looking at the car around him. “Hey, this Rolls-Royce should be quite expensive to repair, right?”......Less than ten minutes later.Kai’s ostentatious sports car roared to the intended location.He got out of the car lazily, glanced at the Rolls-Royce, smiled lightly, and went over to knock on the window mockingly.
Who would have thought that when Eric became cruel, he had no gentlemanly manners at all?There was a limit to his grace.Nicole laughed coldly, scrolling up and down the web page. Eric was really despicable and extreme.The Zahn family roots were not deep. It was half-opportunity and half-luck that they were able to make it to today.He relied on his rich wife to make a fortune, yet he dared to womanize outside.Nicole’s method of dealing with him was much simpler. Just by putting a wedge between his partnerships, it would make him remember this lesson forever.Her goal was still Harrison Corporation.In a short time, Logan came in several times.“President, a call from Harrison Corporation…”“I’m not answering it. I’m busy.”Nicole sneered and ordered people to find out the manufacturers that Harrison Corporation cooperated with in recent years. After a list was made, she carefully studied it and broke it down one by one.“President, Ivy Harrison is waiting downstairs, say
The Harrison family acknowledged Ivy and went through great pains to arrange an engagement with the Ferguson family, letting her get close to Eric.However, not only did she fail to accomplish anything, but she also brought the Harrison family to a dead end.Eli Harrison wanted nothing more than to kill Ivy now.At sunset.After an ordinary day, the situation in the business world had changed slightly due to interests.This day was quite unforgettable.The gossip on the internet did not stop but intensified instead.Ivy’s identity as a noble lady was exposed, and photos of her as a young girl dressed like a delinquent at school were revealed. Classmates came forward to accuse her of identity fraud.She wanted to cry.Although the blood of the Harrison family flowed in her veins, her identity as an illegitimate daughter was not glorious.Furthermore, no one spoke up for her.After work, Nicole took her bag and left.However, as soon as she left the office, Ivy greeted her wi
A big and tall woman climbed on top of Ivy and rained slaps down on her cheeks.“Help…”Ivy’s pleas for help were drowned in the sound of the slaps. She felt numb by shame and pain.Not far away, people saw this scene, but no one came up to help. Instead, they took their phones out to take videos and posted them online. It was like a follow-up to the topic that had been trending all day.[Wow!][She really is a mistress! Serves that b*tch right!][The legal wife is beating up the mistress. There’s no good ending for homewreckers!]......In a blur, Ivy seemed to see Joy coming. Joy stood tall and cold beside her with resentment and anger in her eyes.Ivy tried to call for help, but the woman on top of her was ruthless and did not give her any chance.Time passed by the second, and each second was like torture.The slapping finally stopped, and the fat woman got up from Ivy’s body and kicked her heavily on the chest. Ivy was already in too much pain to speak.“I’m telling yo
Someone noticed Ivy Harrison standing on the balcony of the eighteenth floor, looking relieved as she regained her smile.She had some paranoia and a long-hidden madness and hatred.Ivy hated Joy Harrison the most.She could have grown up with the same lavish lifestyle as Joy. What right did Joy have to enjoy all the benefits of being Eli Harrison’s daughter alone?Ivy knew that she was powerless against Nicole and could not touch her, but she could get rid of her curse, Joy Harrison.If Joy Harrison died, Ivy would be the only Young Lady of the Harrison family.......Nicole was playing poker with Yvette, Julie, and Ian when she heard the news of Joy’s murder.Logan called her saying that Ivy Harrison was arrested.Nicole’s mood was quite complicated.She pitied and disliked Ivy Harrison.After hearing such news, Nicole was in no mood to continue playing and went home.She called Logan to let the Harrison family off the hook.Since she had taken out all her anger, she wan
There was a logo at the bottom of the gold chrysanthemum.It seemed to be a custom-made piece that was extravagant and cheesy.Nicole’s heart trembled, but she kept her smile. “It’s too expensive…”Although this was not worth mentioning compared to the diamonds Lil Michael gave her before, what kind of child would simply give out gold and diamonds?Nicole was a bit overwhelmed.Clayton saw Nicole’s dumbfounded look and could not help but laugh.“It was already too late when I found out about the type of flower he chose. Fortunately, the shape of this flower isn’t too bad. It’ll still look nice as a decorative item.”Clayton thoughtfully added.Anyway, a chrysanthemum made of gold was certainly worth more than a bouquet of white chrysanthemums.Nicole chuckled and nodded along in agreement.“Oh right, I’ve prepared some gifts for Lil Michael as well.”“Oh?”Nicole called Logan and asked him to carry the stuff downstairs.She patted the box that was half her height and smile
Clayton did not take Floyd’s words to heart.He swept a glance at Nicole with a gentle gaze and continued to answer Floyd’s question.Floyd said, “Since you’re friends with Nicole, you can scout around for a suitable partner for her. I can’t be assured if she stays single forever.”He laughed heartily, but even Grant’s fingers froze for a moment.Grant slowly picked at a slice of fish with his fork and savored it without a word.Clayton laughed naturally. “Ms. Stanton’s an excellent lady, so she’s not short of admirers, but those who can match Ms. Stanton are very rare. I see that Ms. Stanton enjoys her life with her family. Chairman Stanton, you must’ve treated her like a princess, so no one can be as attentive to her as her family.”Floyd raised his eyebrows and wholeheartedly agreed with Clayton’s words.He was extremely delighted with what Clayton said.Floyd nodded repeatedly. “Yes, that’s true. Our whole family lets Nicole get her way. We’re happy when she’s happy.”This
“Let go of me.” Nicole warned Eric.Eric did not let go of her. Instead, he hugged her tighter.His voice carried a coldness that was hard to conceal. “Who did you go to dinner with, huh?”Eric was uncomfortable and was afraid that he would really lose her.Nicole wrinkled her eyebrows. Eric spun her around and met her gaze. The two were in extreme proximity that was beyond the usual safe distance.Nicole’s gaze was clear and cold as she tried to see what was wrong with Eric, but she did not notice any abnormalities.He did not smell of alcohol.She answered his question. “It’s none of your business. I don’t need to explain anything to you, right?”Eric narrowed his eyes and smiled. A cold light flashed in his eyes.He knew who she was out with, but he still wanted to hear that name from her mouth like some sort of masochist who enjoyed torturing himself.“Where’s my stuff?” Nicole reminded him.“What stuff?”“You tricked me?!”Eric laughed. He only wanted to find an excus
Chatty and Fischer had been apart for so long, so they cried when they finally hugged.Fischer could not bear to see her cry.When her sobbing eased a little, Fischer lowered his head to wipe her tears and gently coaxed her not to cry.Chatty took a deep breath and calmed herself down as soon as possible.She had so many questions for him.Seeing that her eyes were swollen from crying, Fischer pinched her cheek and said with a smile, “Do you still want to drink coffee? If you don’t want this, we can go to my place, and I’ll make you a cup of coffee.”Chatty nodded.Fischer let down his hand and naturally held Chatty’s hand. He turned around to pick up her bag and pushed the door open.The waiter at the back was envious that they were such a perfect match.Chatty saw that he was holding her hand and felt as if an electric current passed through her heart.When they were young, Fischer often held her hand. They were inseparable, and he liked her the most.Was he still the same
After Chatty left, Clayton sighed miserably for several days, and Nicole was speechless when she saw this.Life in school was not so boring.Although Chatty had been spoiled since childhood, she was not arrogant or insufferable.Chatty was bubbly, outgoing, and clever, so she was very popular.From time to time, she invited everyone to party in her big villa. Thus, everyone loved her even more.Chatty also enjoyed her time alone.She would go for a walk along the Seine and feed the pigeons in the sunset...However, she always felt that someone was watching her whenever she was alone.Even so, she did not think much about it. After all, her father arranged so many security personnel for her.Maybe that stare was from a bodyguard.Chatty walked alone in the sunset with an ice cream in hand and a limited-edition bag that her mom bought for her. Chatty was planning to send this bag back to Mediania.She was a young and beautiful lady with stunning features, so she was a sight to
Clayton talked to Chatty about studying abroad.Chatty agreed without hesitation.He asked her where she wanted to go, to which she replied that she was fine with anywhere except France.Clayton pondered for a while before asking, “Are you reluctant about France because of Fischer?”Chatty’s eyes turned red.“I don’t remember him at all. Daddy, don’t mention him!”She felt aggrieved.Chatty grew up with him, and he suddenly disappeared one day.It felt like a dream.That person was no longer behind her. Fischer was no longer around.Chatty missed him very much, but Fischer did not even say goodbye.Clayton touched her head and looked at his daughter in distress.“Chatty, now that you’ve grown up, you should know that Fischer had no choice but to leave. He also couldn’t contact you, so if you see him in the future, don’t blame him.”Chatty stubbornly turned her head away, pretending not to care.She was the apple of Clayton’s eye, so when had she ever suffered any grievanc
In the blink of an eye, Chatty grew up.As soon as she graduated from high school, she found a boyfriend.She was also happy to go home and share the good news with Nicole.Nicole did not think much of it. She thought that her daughter should enjoy the feeling of sweet and youthful love.Thus, Nicole asked Chatty about her feelings and did not think she was too serious in a relationship.Nicole felt that she could turn a blind eye to it.However, when Clayton found out, he could not sleep all night.Clayton intended to have a good talk with his daughter.Chatty did not think much of it.“Everyone in my class has a boyfriend. If I didn’t have one, I wouldn’t be able to keep up with the trend! Of course, I have to date while I’m young. Otherwise, it won’t be considered puppy love anymore! Life without a first love isn’t perfect!”Clayton tried to persuade her. “You’re still young. If you see the world, you’ll know that men aren’t great.”“Then is Mommy blind since she’s with y
Another surveillance footage showed that the waiter almost dropped the tray because of the instability of the wine glasses, so the waiter moved the position of the wine glass. However, Jade was unaware of this.The autopsy results came out overnight.Jade was found to be poisoned by potassium cyanide.The ingredients were the same as the small bottle that Jade was carrying.Jade intentionally wanted to kill someone, but she accidentally killed herself.She would never understand which part of her scheme went wrong and why she ended up dead.The police checked the surveillance footage and found that the small bottle was initially dropped by Selena’s aunt.They followed the lead and arrested her.The aunt confessed everything without omission and told the police that she was threatened, so she had to go to the event.However, the aunt did not want to harm anyone, so she took the opportunity of her fall to throw away the bottle of medicine.Unexpectedly, Jade did not give up and
Jade was silent for a moment. Then, she pursed her lips.“I don’t care what method you use. You must get your parents to see Selena. Otherwise, I will make your parents drink this bottle of potassium cyanide.”Jennifer raised her head abruptly. Her face was extremely pale.“Okay.”She spoke in a low voice.The uneasiness and fear in her eyes could not be concealed.......A few days later, the opportunity came.Eric specially brought Selena to attend a charity auction to relax her mind.Moreover, he also bought a lot of jewelry and antiques. Soon, he became the focus of the crowd.After the auction, there was a charity dinner.Jennifer’s parents managed to get an invitation through various channels.Jade was already in the center of the venue. She wanted to watch this good show, but Jennifer’s parents came late, and the crowd dispersed when they arrived.Jade was furious.If they missed this opportunity, how long would they have to wait for the next opportunity?The Stan
When Selena talked about Nicole and Eric, she had a smile on her face, and there was no concern or disgust in her eyes.It was probably because Selena felt that Eric had left his past behind.Eric would never approach Nicole again, and they each had their own lives.Nicole smiled. The gemstone bracelet in the box was shiny and beautiful. It was extravagant with each carefully crafted gemstone. 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. Thank you, I really like it!”Selena took the initiative to give her a gift, which showed that she did not mind Nicole’s past with Eric. They just laughed it off.Nicole wore the bracelet on her wrist. It was indeed very beautiful.Selena smiled and was very happy to see that Nicole liked it.“The past is in the past. Let’s forgive each other, okay?”Nicole nodded with sore eyes.“It’s a pity I didn’t prepare
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! Those shares must be given to me! Otherwise, I won’t rest!”Jade sat there looking like a rogue, as if she was determined to get the shares.Floyd’s face was gloomy, and he glanced at Jade with a complicated look.“You should go back and wait for the police and the company’s notice. Noah stole hundreds of millions of dollars from the company. The company is nice enough not to chase
Jade’s face turned pale.“You should try both, or at least find a reliable lawyer to get him less jail time.”Nicole could not help but chuckle.She interrupted their conversation.“Aunt Jade, in fact, you came at the right time. 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? How could I? This is illegal!”Nicole sneered
