Chapter 107

Nicole desperately suppressed those

surging emotions in her heart. She took a

deep breath as she held back the sourness in

her eyes.

Since things had co to this point, there

was no way to please both parties. The

only way was for Nicole to compromise.

Eric wanted Nicole to hand over the pipe to his grandfather to appease him and

divert his attention. Then, he could take

the opportunity to gain back control over

the media. He wanted to clarify the facts

for Nicole to clear her name and minimize

the damage.

“Nicole, let’s talk about the rest later.

What’s more important is solving the

matter at hand.” Eric spoke again with

forbearance.

Nicole sneered. “Don’t bother. I’m used to

being scolded, so it doesn’t matter to me.

Eric Ferguson, you’d best remember that

the most regrettable thing in my life is

being so blind to fall for a jerk like you!

Thank God it’s only been three years… I’ll

just consider this a nightmare! Also, tell

Chairman Ferguson that I will find a good

home for the emerald pipe.”

After that, Nicole hung up the phone

without hesitation. Her eyes were already

blurred with tears.

Nicole remembered when she first got Nicole remembered Jen she first got divorced, she wanted to

know if Eric had once felt moved or touched by her affection for him. However, she could not and would

not ask him this because asking would mean defeat. That was because Eric Ferguson had never

acknowledged her as his wife.

Nicole did not want to debase herself any longer.

Now, the answer was no longer

important, and Nicole just felt that the

question itself was simply ridiculous.

‘How absurd! The past three years of

marriage is just a self-abasing nightmare!

Nicole thought.

Keith looked at the call that was disconnected and saw that Eric’s face was glum and tense. He let out a

nervous laugh and said, “This woman doesn’t know any better. Ferg, don’t bother with her. Just wait for

the heat to pass.” He had not seen any woman who dared to scold Eric Ferguson so blatantly and did

not even give him the chance to retaliate.

‘Nicole’s really something!

“Nicole’s really something!”

“By the way, I received an invitation to

Stanton Corporation’s anniversary party,

I heard that they’ve also invited many

mainstream domestic and foreign media

for the grand gala. Perhaps they intend to

take advantage of this opportunity to

explain the matter about Nicole, so don’t

worry about it.”

Eric’s eyes were indifferent. His face was

icy, and his voice was cold as he said, ”

I’m not worried. Forget it… She doesn’t

appreciate it anyway.”

Eric did not know what Nicole was

thinking. The situation was clearly very

tense, but Nicole was still not willing to

accept the olive branch they offered her.

‘Did she really think that Stanton

Corporation would take her in? Or will

Grant Stanton really marry her? In her

situation, anyone who gets involved with

her will be in big trouble. This stupid

woman!’ Eric thought.
