Floyd Stanton raised his eyebrows and glanced at Eric Ferguson, then shook his head and said, “How could I possibly imagine becoming in-laws with you? My daughter certainly doesn’t deserve such an exceptional man like Mr. Ferguson.”Old Master Ferguson paused, then laughed and changed the subject. “Speaking of which, Stanton Corporation was really messed up by that woman’s scandalous background, right? The stock market even began to stir...”Wendy Quade pulled Ingrid Ferguson’s hand and asked in a whisper, “Did you really see it clearly? Why would Nicole even be here at this time?”“How could I be mistaken? My mother was also present at that time…”Wendy’s eyes narrowed. She followed Ingrid to the second floor and looked down at the crowd that was filled with people. There were all kinds of dresses, and it was simply impossible to recognize anyone.“How can we find her like this…”Ingrid scratched her head. “I don’t know where she ran to hide, but since she’s here, I doubt she’ll

The venue was brightly lit, extremely luxurious, and high-profile. Soon, the music stopped abruptly as Floyd Stanton walked up onto the stage.Everyone gathered around the stage, knowing that the main event of this gala was about to begin.Although Grant Stanton was the actual person in charge of Stanton Corporation and had the prestige and reputation comparable to Eric Ferguson, at this time, he did not have the slightest intention to take the spotlight away from his father. Instead, he only stood on the side humbly and respectfully as he watched his father speak.“Ladies and gentlemen, thank you all for coming to Stanton Corporation’s anniversary gala. Thanks to your support all these years, we’ve had such smooth sailing thus far. This toast is for everyone!”Floyd Stanton raised his glass, to which everyone responded with the same action, then downed the wine in it. Everyone knew that it was not because of everyone’s support that Stanton Corporation had such an unstoppable gro

Nicole silently curved her lips and did not say another word. Everyone finally understood.This slanderous farce was created by the Fergusons with malicious intent to defame Nicole.If this happened to an ordinary person, it was simply impossible for them to make a comeback.With the Ferguson family’s power, it was as easy as a snap of a finger to sentence an ordinary person a “social death”. Nicole was not so kind as to hide the Fergusons’ bad deeds. Since there was such an opportunity, she would of course let the world know how despicable and shameless the Fergusons were.Old Master Ferguson stood there trying to conceal the panic and huge sense of regret in his shocked gaze. What was done could not be undone.No one had expected Nicole to be the heir to Stanton Corporation!It was no wonder the Fergusons could not find any trace of Nicole’s past even when they used their connections when Nicole and Eric first got married. Thus, they believed her when she said she was an orph

Old Master Ferguson’s face was glum as he narrowed his eyes and grunted coldly. He was so exasperated looking at this father-daughter pair that he gnashed his teeth and said, “Chairman Stanton, what else do you have in store? I’ve already seen enough of this surprising show!”It was clear that the Stantons were deliberately telling off the Fergusons with everything that happened at the gala.‘No wonder Nicole was so fearless when I complained about her to Floyd Stanton in her office that day. Now that I think back to it, she deliberately played me!’ Old Master Ferguson thought.Floyd Stanton glanced at Eric Ferguson, who still did not show a hint of emotion on his noble and calm face. At such a young age, he managed to be so unperturbed by all that happened, which was a rare talent.If not for Eric’s messy love life and for him hurting Nicole so many times that made Floyd Stanton keep a distance from him, Floyd would probably be able to accept such a man as his son-in-law.“Chairm

Nicole paused for a moment. Her eyebrows moved slightly as she raised her eyelids insouciantly, then hooked the corners of her lips.“Mr. Ferguson, why do you want to know this?”‘Knowing the answer no longer had any meaning now, is there?’ Nicole thought.“Answer me.” Eric’s voice was deep, and his eyes were bottomless like the ocean.Nicole lowered her eyelids and smiled gently.“Because my family is very unimpressed with you, but I was somehow blind and liked you.”‘That was why I turned my back on my world, gave up my identity, and ran to him with open arms. Unfortunately, he didn’t catch me, and I fell to a painful death…’“Fortunately, I’m not blind anymore.” Nicole smiled faintly. It was extremely cold. “Mr. Ferguson, are you done talking? You might as well go back and discuss with the old man on how to word the apology.”Nicole took a sip of red wine and retracted her gaze. She turned on her heels and left without saying another word.Grant was mingling with the guests
