Chapter 307
The Divorced Billionaire Heiress
Chapter 307 You Must Be Assertive
After that, Kai slowly turned around and got into the car without paying any attention to Eric Ferguson
again. Mr. Anderson then started the car engine and drove away immediately.
Nicole went back home and had a good nightâs sleep.
The light outside spilled through the curtains onto the ground. It turned out that Tigger had changed the
roomâs sleep mode into an active mode. Tigger was now lying lazily on the balcony swing.
Its four little paws trembled and shrank as it felt scared yet happy.
Nicole was woken up by Julieâs phone call in the morning. She fumbled around helplessly for her phone.
âDid you and Yvette discuss amongst yourselves to not let me sleep in every day?â Julieâs calm voice
had a hint of concern.
âYou were taken away by Eric Ferguson last night. He didnât do anything to you, right?â Nicole was jolted
awake.
âHe took me away?â âDidnât I get into his car by myself?â âYeah, Roman, the good-for-nothing, didnât dare
to refuse Eric Ferguson, but I called Kai right after. Nothing happened in between, right?â Nicoleâs
eyebrows jumped.
âThat son of a b*tch Eric Ferguson dared to lie to me?! âNo, my third brother came quickly.â âThatâs
good.â Julie hung up after a casual chat. However, Nicole was so angry that she gritted her teeth.
âI was fooled by him?!â Knowing that Nicole was awake, the maids brought up some hangover tea for her.
Nicole ate breakfast and she later carried Tigger to J&L Corporation. Tiggerâs program was changed by
Maverick, but Molly Stewart must have a way to change Tigger back.
Nicole could not allow Tigger to like the people she hated. The receptionist saw Nicole walking over and
immediately came forward with a respectful smile.
âWelcome, Ms. Stanton. Mr. Lichman didnât know that you would be coming over today. Let me inform
him immediatelyâ¦â Nicole raised her hand.
âOh no, Iâm here to look for Molly Stewart. Is she in?â The receptionist paused for a moment.â Of course,
she is. Please wait in the lounge.â
Nicole raised her eyebrows and breathed a sigh of relief. âGreat! Now I can solve this stupid issue thatâs
been bugging me!â When she got to the lounge, Nicole stroked Tiggerâs soft fur.
âIn the future, you must be assertive. You canât just agree when someone wants to modify your program.
You have to learn to reject him, okay?â Tigger nestled in her arms aggrievedly.
( âBut Papa is the most handsome person in the world! Mama, you must acknowledge the truth!â Nicole
just wanted to pick Tigger up by the neck and teach it a lesson.
At this time, the door to the lounge suddenly opened. âNikki, youâre here!â Molly Stewart was wearing a
white lab coat and had her hair pulled into a messy bun.
Nicole raised her head in delight, but before she could greet Molly, her smile instantly froze when she
noticed the two people who came in after Molly.
âMr. Lichman? Mr. Ferguson?â Gerard Lichman and Eric Ferguson walked in one after the other. One
with a smile, while the latter was expressionless. Nicole took a deep breath.
âHeâs like a bloody ghost haunting me!â Gerard pushed up his gold-framed glasses. âItâs been a while, Ms.
Stanton. Congratulations for coming back in one piece.â Nicole chuckled. âThank you.â
Gerard saw that Nicole had no intention of greeting Eric, so to ease the awkwardness, he coughed and
said, âOh, it just so happened that Mr. Ferguson was here for a meeting.
We thought that you might want to know about the progress of the AI project, so we came here to
discuss it with you.
After all, youâve been in charge of this project all this while.â He felt that this was the best reason and
thought that his excuse was flawless.
Nicole said in the flattest tone possible, Havenât I handed over this project long before my accident?â
Gerard only managed a weak âohâ.
Just when everyone thought that the atmosphere was starting to get awkward, Eric suddenly opened his
mouth.
His voice was gentle and calm. âAfter drinking so much last night, are you feeling better now?â
