Eric’s irritating face was right in front of Nicole’s eyes. Nicole looked at it with cold eyes and was not polite.When Eric let down his guard, Nicole lifted her leg and kicked him fiercely.Eric’s leg with the old injury trembled violently, which made him take two steps backwards. He looked at her in shock.She really kicked him hard!Nicole’s gaze was icy cold. He was finally a safe range away from her, which was reassuring.She reached out and touched her lips with her slender fingers. She wiped away the blood in a swift motion and made it seem like those traces never existed at all.Her gaze landed on him without the slightest heartache or guilt. Instead, she sneered.“Are you a dog? Eric Ferguson, if this happens again, I’ll cripple your leg.”Her tone was extremely cold. She was not joking.Eric’s eyes flinched.He used this tone when he was lecturing others, but now, Nicole used it to lecture him.Nicole was not bothered to glance at him and turned to leave as she wi

Just when Floyd was torn, Clayton’s phone rang. Clayton’s expression changed when he saw the number.Clayton stood up, excused himself, and walked out to answer the phone.Floyd looked at Nicole with difficulty.Nicole’s expression was light. She could not see what Floyd was thinking because her mind was not there.Kai also did not know about Floyd’s dilemma.In less than half a minute, Clayton walked in with a gentle face and waved toward Lil Michael.“Susan wants to talk to you. Come and take this call.”Susan was Lil Michael’s maid.Lil Michael frowned as he went over. ‘Why didn’t Susan contact me directly?’He looked at his empty wrist. ‘Oh, right… My watch just fell into the swimming pool!’The boy followed Clayton out the door.When he reached out to take the phone, Clayton did not give it to him. Instead, Clayton’s smile somewhat faded.“Just now, there’s a foreign transaction that came from you that’s $880 million. What did you buy?”Lil Michael lazily squinted his

Nicole felt like a feather brushed over her heart. It was gentle and restrained, but with a surging and rich love.Clayton was happy yet careful.Nicole was stunned for a moment as she did not seem to expect Clayton to make such a quick comeback again. However, his kiss carried a light scent of fresh grass that she could not help but indulge in.In less than a second, Clayton took a step back. The intense love in his eyes was suppressed and restrained.His eyes were light as he held a faint smile. His voice was warm and clear, like a spring breeze brushing through her heart.“Nicole, do you know how to completely forget a person?”Nicole’s body was tense. Her face was slightly cold, and her obsidian eyes were dark and heavy.She did not want to indulge in the warm embrace of a man she did not know too well.Thus, her tone carried a warning and detachment. “Mr. Sloan…”Clayton interrupted her. His eyebrows were sunken. “It’s to fall in love with another person.”He told her th

Nicole rolled her eyes at Kai. “She’s coming soon.”Kai regained his spirits and was even more excited to get back to the kitchen work.Tigger was draped in an expensive Gucci silk scarf, and it had a valuable watch that Kai no longer wanted on one of its legs. The little tiger made its rounds throughout the Stanton Mansion with a big grin on its face.Hearing Floyd’s bold and spirited laughter outside, Nicole was shocked for a moment and went out to see what was going on.It turned out that her second brother, Maverick, had returned.Not just him, but also Molly Stewart.The two of them came inside hand in hand and were obviously in a good relationship. Nicole clicked her tongue.“I always thought that Maverick would be single for life! Now, he’s the first among us to get into a relationship?”Kai wiped his hands and came out. Seeing this scene, he also felt a sizable blow.Floyd told everyone to come out and greet them at the door.Nicole and Kai looked at each other and hu

Nicole could not help but laugh a little.“You think too much! Everyone in our family adores you, especially my second brother!”Speaking of Maverick, Molly sighed and tilted her head with her hands together.“I never dreamed that I'd get to marry my idol! I’ll really wake up from laughing in my dreams…”Molly’s smile was full of joy.The sun was shining today. Although it was cold, it was still radiant and dazzling.Nicole curled the corners of her lips. “My second brother is the most uncontested person in our family, but he’s very busy. If you feel bored, you can come to me. We can go shopping and travel together!”She implied that Molly should not break up with Maverick just because he was such a busy person.Molly nodded heavily and rubbed her hands. “Um… Is Maverick rich?”Nicole was speechless.After three seconds of silence, Nicole hurriedly nodded.“Yes, he is. He has dividends from Stanton Corporation’s shares, his bonus, and various financial investments. The liqui
