The Divorced Billionaire Heiress Chapter 38 Compliments and Cooperation
The girls looked at Ingrid’s grim face and quieted down.The second floor of the banquet hall was relatively quiet. When Grant brought Nicole upstairs, an unruly-looking young man in an expensive black shirt stood up.The two men shook hands briefly. Grant smiled and said, “Mr. Lichman, it’s been a while.”Gerard Lichman laughed. The corners of his lips hooked up charmingly. “Hello, Mr. Stanton.”Without waiting for Grant’s introduction, Gerard had already moved his gaze onto Nicole. It was an appreciative glance with a decent sense of proportion that was not offensive.“Ms. Nicole, you’re not only beautiful but also capable. I hope that you won’t mind that I put off our dinner and invited you to this banquet instead.”Nicole smiled, "Of course not. Congratulations on J&L’s 5th anniversary. I hope we’ll be able to work together happily in the years to come.”She made a double entendre.Gerard smiled. “Mr. Stanton, may I talk to Ms. Nicole privately? After all, if there’s a chan
The Divorced Billionaire Heiress Chapter 39 Just One Dance
Nicole thought, ‘I see, so that’s how it is… He’s already a shareholder, huh? I just didn’t expect Eric Ferguson had set his eyes on the field of artificial intelligence for so long.’If Gerard Lichman did not take the initiative to tell Nicole this, Nicole would not have been able to find out. The fact that he told her this information also proved that he genuinely wanted to cooperate with her.Although Nicole was not happy about Eric’s involvement, she had a clear mind and separated her personal affairs and business well. She would not give up on this opportunity.Nicole lowered her eyes and smiled. “With Ferguson Corporation’s strength, you can very well enjoy the fruits of this cooperation by yourself. Why do you need a third party to get involved?”She raised her eyebrows slightly and glanced at Eric.“After all, this is a brand new field that no one’s involved in, so Ferguson Corporation cannot take this risk alone.”The man’s voice was deep and clear. The corners of his li
The Divorced Billionaire Heiress Chapter 40 Some Kind of Relationship
When Nicole heard her name, she froze for a moment. She did not want to have anything to do with Eric Ferguson, but this situation was out of her control and she felt everyone’s eyes on her at this moment.The awkward relationship between them after their divorce added to the mystery of this coincidental cooperation.Eric also did not expect this. Without a doubt, this was Gerard’s doing.Nicole was still in a pickle when Eric walked to her. He was exuding a cool aura as he bent slightly and reached out, inviting Nicole to the dance floor.Everyone’s eyes were focused on the pair.There was no way Nicole could reject Eric’s invitation because she did not want to leave a negative impact at the beginning of their three-way cooperation.Grant gave his baby sister a heartfelt look. Nicole smiled faintly, then stretched out her hand to take Eric’s.The people in front of them consciously made way for the pair. Nicole carried her dress with her other hand and walked forward without lo
The Divorced Billionaire Heiress Chapter 41 He Did It on Purpose
The lights flickered.Nicole gently shook the glass of wine and stood in front of the railing on the second floor. She watched the pretentious exchange of pleasantries of the people below.Eric, who was walking over not far away, looked up at that instant and suddenly met Nicole’s clear and cold gaze.Nicole faintly retracted her gaze and ignored the discomfort in her heart. That kiss on the dance floor earlier made the crowd gasp. No one cared which of them actually made the wrong move at the end of the dance. They were just waiting for a good show to happen between the ex-couple.Any reaction on either of them would lead to endless speculation.Thus, at the moment their lips touched, Nicole instantly turned her face to the side. Fortunately, the music stopped and she drew back in time. She glanced coldly at Eric and turned away without looking back.Keith was joking with several people around Eric. After sending them away, he let out a sigh of relief and looked at Eric, who had
The Divorced Billionaire Heiress Chapter 42 Ugly Past
Ian Carter looked extremely shocked. He caught onto the main point. “Kiss your brother? Haha...stop daydreaming. Nicole’s not crazy or stupid, so why would she look for a f*ckboy?”“If you don’t believe me, ask anyone here. Everyone saw it!” Ingrid argued.Her friends hesitantly nodded their heads.Ian dismissed them without a second thought. “Why should I ask the people you’re colluding with? Do you think I’m dumb?”Ingrid’s face turned red with anger. “It’s true anyway! Nicole, you don’t dare admit it? My brother only cares about Wendy. You exist only because you can give her a blood transfusion. Stop your wishful thinking that you can still marry into our family. We will never accept you!”She knew that Wendy was a thorn in Nicole’s heart. Every time this name was mentioned, it made Nicole feel twice as desperate.However, in front of others, Nicole faintly hooked her lips and laughed lightly. She coldly swept a glance at the girls behind Ingrid.“The whole world knows about
The Divorced Billionaire Heiress Chapter 43 You’re Different
Eric Ferguson did not bother to look at Nicole’s expression and walked straight to Ingrid. His face was inexplicably cold.“Was everything you just said true?” He asked with gritted teeth.Ingrid was a little flustered. She bit her lower lip and did not know how to respond.She grew up around her parents and was not close to her brother, who grew up abroad. After Eric returned to the country, he became a first-class business whiz in the industry and expanded the Ferguson family’s wealth by hundreds of times. This made Ingrid insufferably arrogant.“Answer me!” Eric saw Ingrid’s hesitation and forced her to speak.A crisp, cold scoff came from the left side behind him. Without a thought, he knew that it was Nicole who was laughing.“Mr. Ferguson, it’s all true.”As soon as Nicole admitted it, the surrounding people looked at these two people with a complicated gaze. They did not expect that behind Nicole’s bright and beautiful exterior was such an ugly and miserable past.After
The Divorced Billionaire Heiress Chapter 44 Blind
Nicole sneered and looked at Ingrid Ferguson with a cold gaze. She lowered her eyelids slightly and said, “Ms. Ferguson, are you trying to embarrass me by bringing out this ugly past over and over again? Mind you, I’m not embarrassed. Your family should be embarrassed for treating their daughter-in-law like a maid. I wonder who will ever dare to marry into your family again...”“Anyway, you’re not worthy of being a Ferguson! Nicole, you were clearly trying to seduce my brother earlier. Aren’t you gonna admit it?”Ingrid was adamant that Nicole was deliberately seducing her brother with that kiss earlier. ‘Nicole wants me to apologize?!’Ingrid was resentful and thought, ‘Why can Nicole be so arrogant? Why didn’t my brother back me up?’“Ms. Ferguson, you actually think that I want to seduce Mr. Ferguson?”Nicole laughed lightly. She was never one to beat around the bush and had always gone straight to the point.‘Seduce? I don’t think I’m cheap enough to do this!’That kiss at
The Divorced Billionaire Heiress Chapter 45 Really Calculative
Ian Carter glanced sideways at Eric Ferguson. He smiled smugly and recklessly as if he was mocking Eric’s current situation.‘Look at him! Even Eric Ferguson will end up like this…’Keith Ludwig finally caught up to Eric. He followed Eric’s gaze and saw Nicole’s departing back. “Tsk tsk… Ferg, since you’re already divorced, don’t regret it. This is all that woman’s cheap tricks anyway.” Eric cast a sidelong glance at him and said, “Do I need you to teach me how to do things?”Keith suddenly felt a chill on his back and did not dare to speak for a while.‘That woman humiliated Eric in front of everyone. Even I feel like dying from anger, so let alone Eric! Although what Ingrid said was indeed a little overboard, that woman asked for it since she begged to marry Eric in the first place! Was it not her own fault then?’When Nicole first entered the hall, many came over to mingle with her perhaps because of her position in the Stanton Corporation or because of the drama tonight.Si

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.

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

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

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.

Chapter 2625 She Doesn’t Want It
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

Chapter 2624 Wasted Efforts
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

Chapter 2623 Understand the Law
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
