Julie smiled. “Young idols who debut in the talent show have a lot of fans, but they’re mostly elementary school students. He seems to have been peeking at you.”Nicole pursed her lips helplessly and brushed her hair. “I’m not interested in elementary school students. I like older celebrities more.”Kai caught up behind them. “What are you talking about? I wanna know…”Nicole and Julie walked in silence.No one paid attention to him.The male celebrity walked in front of them. Before he reached the door, he put on his sunglasses and mask as if afraid that others would recognize him.He took out his phone and ordered, “Are the bodyguards ready? Don’t let anyone touch me. I’m a clean freak!”Nicole and Julie exchanged a glance and smiled silently.They felt like this man was purely superfluous. Most of his fans were elementary school students who would need to go to school instead of coming here to pick him up, right?The celebrity got ready. As soon as the person in front opene
The Stanton siblings were just too dazzling. Some reporters heard the news, and it was only a matter of minutes before the empty airport was swarmed.Nicole did not expect such a thing to happen. In order to protect Julie from being disturbed, Kai could not help but look back and let her find an opportunity to slip away.Thus, Nicole stood in the center without anyone to shield her. Hehe…It was like a dream!“Ms. Stanton, can you tell us what you think about Mr. Ferguson’s feelings? Are you really not going to give him a chance at all?”“Mr. Ferguson is very humble and everyone’s hearts ache for him. What do you think about that?”“Were the two responses just a way to build hype? How are the sales of Stanton Corporation’s new products?”“Will Kai handle the publicity for his own company?”......Countless reporters and questions surrounded them.Nicole could not move, and she was extremely angry.It was all Kai’s fault!She took a step back and stomped on his foot delibe
In Ferguson Corporation.Eric looked at Nicole making the trending topic at the airport and pursed his lips, admiring her.Stunning! Nicole was really good-looking.Every angle was perfect. There were no bad angles at all!Toto was in Eric’s office changing the water in the fish tank while coming up with an idea.“Mr. Ferguson, why don’t you like the news?”“Like it? Wouldn’t it be better for me to share the picture along with a caption?”Eric asked in a low voice.How would Eric reflect his worth if he did not spend money on it?He wanted nothing more than to spend money to make this trending topic stay on the top the entire day, but he was afraid that Nicole would come at him with a knife!Toto’s lips twitched into a smile. “That’s too grand and will only seem like an eyesore. It’s irritating and won’t serve the purpose.“A simple like indicates that you’re paying attention, but it’ll be like absent-minded attention which doesn’t make any big waves. That way, you’ll appear
As soon as the shooting started, everyone consciously shut up and became silent.The environment of the meeting room was already solemn. With Eric’s aura, even the interviewer felt pressured.Toto was just about to walk out when he watched Eric raise his hands and put them on the table.Eric sat there. He looked stern and weary, and his breath had a strong coldness.However, everyone clearly spotted that on Eric’s hands that were folded together on the table, there was a ring on his left ring finger.The Single!Toto froze.The moment Toto hesitated, he suddenly met Eric’s dark and cold line of sight. He shivered and did not dare to stay longer, then ran out in silence.Toto only sighed in relief after going out.The ring finger on the left hand represented marriage.The Single was a ring designed by Stanton Corporation for single people, but Eric actually wore it on his ring finger?He was really crazy about Nicole!However, he would not have to worry about it soon. Once t
Logan turned and left.Nicole continued to read the proposal. Their investment direction could not be limited to one aspect, and Grant had already proposed to step into real estate again.Everyone knew that the real estate industry had not been prosperous in recent years.However, it was because it was not prosperous that some people would take risks and win.Thus, when Grant proposed this plan, Nicole was persuaded as well.The AI project had gradually stabilized and was unlikely to deviate from the track, so their energy could be shifted in other directions.In the afternoon.Grant and Nicole discussed the plan of giving the project team a “surprise attack”.Nicole wore a white shirt and a slim and slender fishtail skirt, outlining her thin waist and long, straight legs. She went to the project department in her high heels.She stood in the middle of her crowd, looking bright and noble. Even Grant walked behind her.Everyone in the project department knew who Nicole was. Sh
Nicole glanced at Logan. Her words could not compare to a group photo that Xandria took out. How ridiculous!“Ms. Xandria is still in her internship period. Whether she can stay or not is her problem, but if Mr. Cook wants to give up his position, we have no problem with that…”Jacob instantly went ashen.Nicole’s words clearly meant that she did not want to be Xandria’s backer.He sucked up to the wrong person!It was time to get down to business.Nicole walked over to sit on the sofa, reached out, and took the documents that Logan handed over.“To be honest, Stanton Corporation has been flourishing this year. We have project after project, but it seems none of them have anything to do with you.”The AI project was Nicole’s achievements, and the big projects were all a result of Grant’s operations. The rest were cooperation with brands under Stanton Corporation.In that case, what was the significance of the project team’s existence?Jacob looked at Grant in a panic, but Gra
Jacob’s body felt cold.Xandria came in with coffee. “Mr. Cook, have my cousins left?”Jacob gave her a complicated look, pursed his lips, and pointed to her small desk.“Move your things out. You’ll be like everyone else in the future. Do what you have to do!”Xandria’s face froze. “Did you misunderstand something? As you saw earlier, Nicole and Grant are my cousins!”“There’s no misunderstanding. The company treats everyone equally. In addition, I suggest that you change that group photo on your desktop wallpaper. There shouldn’t be such a bad influence existing in the company. Merit should always be the most important.”Jacob took a deep breath. As a middle-aged man who almost lost his job, he had to take every step steadily and properly!“W-Why?”Xandria did not understand. Why did Jacob’s attitude towards her change so much after Nicole and Grant came?Did Nicole and Grant say something to him?“Because this is my territory!” Jacob said impatiently. “If you’re not satisf
Nicole looked up. Her facial features were stunning, and her temperament was clear. Her indifference was something that came from her bones. She sat opposite Xandria, who was standing, it was like looking at two opposite ends of the spectrum.“Xandria, you should know how you managed to get into the company. With your resume and ability, it’s impossible for you to join Stanton Corporation. Since we’re relatives, I didn’t tell HR to dismiss you immediately and gave you a chance to see your performance. If you continue to take advantage of our relationship and try to act like you’re special in the company, I’ll make it so that no company will want to hire you after I dismiss you!”Nicole smiled faintly as if she was talking about a trivial matter, but Xandria’s face went white.She was threatening Xandria. It was simply a naked threat!However, it just so happened that Xandria could not say a word in response to that threat.In the end, she could only purse her lips.“Nicole, I was
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
