Chapter 760 Bribed by Whom
Nicole’s words made Logan’s blood surge.It was an exciting gamble that was risky all the same.Using public opinion to gain sympathy was easy to end in ruins.There were countless examples on the internet.Logan frowned. “Such public opinion may not be a good thing for us.”Nicole fiddled with the raised button on her wheelchair and glanced at Logan with a smile.“Of course, it can’t be that simple. If that murderer can kill for his daughter, why can’t he be a good person for his daughter for once?”Logan’s brows instantly tightened. “President, I don’t understand. That murderer’s death sentence is pretty much set. Moreover, he only got caught this time because he failed to kill you. He hates us so much, so how could he be bribed by us?”The murderer was probably the typical kind of person that was vengeful against society. He would want people to suffer even after death.Nicole sneered slightly and looked up at Logan.“Have someone show him the photos of his wife and daught
Chapter 761 The Little Cripple
The murderer harmed Nicole for his daughter, and Nicole only survived because she was lucky.What if Nicole did not manage to escape?What if Clayton did not show up in time?Grant just did not want to waste a single penny on this murderer’s family.Nicole was silent for a few seconds, knowing that they were all so reluctant for her sake.Otherwise, with Grant’s character, he would have solved it with money.Money was the murderer’s wife’s weakness. If they charged the murderer’s wife with extortion and blackmail, she would be in jail as well.However, Grant did not do so because he was resentful.Nicole pursed her lips. Her beautiful eyes dimmed.“G, this money will set a positive image for us and lay the foundation for the project in Sand City. It’s worth it.”She was still a businesswoman that could weigh the pros and cons in the shortest time.This little bit of money was nothing to them.Grant knew that Nicole had already made up her mind, so he did not stop her.“Oka
Chapter 762 False Flattery
Toto opened his mouth and was silent for a few seconds.After a while, Toto calmed down and did not forget his mission yet.“Mr. Ferguson isn’t doing it for the money, it’s for you, Ms. Stanton!”Nicole’s crystal-like beautiful eyes were stunned for a moment. She seemed to understand the purpose of Toto’s visit.At that moment, Nicole did not expose Toto’s intentions. She only smiled and continued to eat.Toto saw that Nicole did not continue the conversation, but he still braced himself and continued, “When Mr. Ferguson found out about your accident, he hasn’t slept for two days. As soon as he got the news, he rushed over like crazy to Sand City, but when he came back, he looked like a completely different person.Nicole’s hands paused slightly, and her heart trembled unnoticeably.On that day, Nicole clearly did not see Eric after she woke up.How could he have gone to Sand City?Toto said, “Then he came here once, and after he went back, he couldn’t hold on and passed out.
Chapter 763 Duplicitous Clayton
Toto suddenly realized that this trip was a waste of time.As Toto walked to the door with his head hanging, he suddenly saw a familiar man walking in. The man was a tall, upright, and modest gentleman, giving off a kind and intimate feeling, yet reserved and noble.Toto paused in his footsteps and suddenly remembered that this man was Clayton Sloan!He was the handsome, tall, well-built, personable, pretentious, and duplicitous Clayton Sloan!Toto was anxious and antsy. He wanted to turn back to the ward, but his reasoning prevented him from doing so.Since Toto represented Eric in every word and deed, he could not make Nicole hate Eric even more.Thus, Toto left quickly and ran directly to Ferguson Corporation.Eric’s temper has been very bad lately. It was simply horrible.His subordinates were all apprehensive as they did not know why Eric’s attitude changed so much.Even Mitchell, Eric’s right-hand man, tried his best to avoid taking the initiative to find Eric.Toto ran
Chapter 764 What a Kind-Hearted Mr. Ferguson
Although Toto had many methods, his ability was limited.Especially for someone of Clayton’s status, trying to dig up dirt on him was not something that Toto could touch.However, this should not be a difficult task for Eric.At that moment, Eric was no longer anxious. He raised his eyes to look at Toto.“What does she like to eat? Go and buy the ingredients. I’ll learn to make it tonight when I get back.”As a changed good man, Eric had high requirements of himself.An able spouse should be able to do well at home and in public. Eric wanted to make himself as perfect as possible.Any bit of correction was for Nicole.When Toto heard this, his body fiercely stiffened. ‘Mr. Ferguson wants to cook again?! Why did he have to spoil that new kitchen repeatedly?’However, Toto could not bring himself to stop Eric. Eric was obsessed with becoming a “virtuous husband” and did not admit his own failure and incompetence in cooking.Toto pursed his lips and sighed.“Yes, Mr. Ferguson.
Chapter 765 The Most Expensive Orange
Suddenly, Clayton took out a perfectly round orange from out of nowhere that looked so vibrant and pretty. It was extremely enticing.His eyes were warm and soft, and his voice was extremely soothing to the ear. “This is for you.”Nicole froze for a moment when she saw the orange in front of her.She had received numerous gifts in her lifetime – gold and silver jewelry, diamond necklaces, luxury goods more expensive than the other.However, this little orange with its glistening luster on the surface accidentally entered her heart.A certain place in her chest shook slightly.Her heart softened.Before she ate it, she could already taste the sweetness.Nicole reached out and picked it up, trying to ignore the emotional turmoil in her heart.She was calm and composed as she looked at him and smiled politely.“How did you get this little orange?”“Just now when I was parking, an old man selling oranges accidentally knocked his cart into my car door. He was a little scared, so
Chapter 766 I’m the One Who Likes You Most
Clayton was helpless. He stood up and straightened his clothes.“Fine, then I’ll go get some air.”Nicole waved at Clayton, then looked at Lil Michael and really wanted to touch his shaggy hair.“Lil Michael, Daddy loves you so much. He’ll get sad when you do this…”Lil Michael pouted and thought, ‘He wouldn’t!’“But I wanted to talk to you alone, Pretty Lady…”Nicole immediately could not bear to nag the boy.He was such a well-behaved baby. What fault can he have?“Okay, then let’s talk about your daddy. What do you think his strengths are?”Lil Michael struggled to think about this question that was really difficult for him.‘Does Daddy even have any strengths? Every time he calls me a good boy, he’ll then get my tutor to give me more lessons. This sweet trick isn’t so sweet anymore. If I don’t say anything, then Pretty Lady will think that I’m not a good boy! For the sake of my image, I must suck it up and praise Daddy!’Nicole laughed. What a good opportunity to witness
Chapter 767 Hammer the Scumbag to Death
As they were talking, Clayton came into the ward and looked at Nicole with a smile. He spoke in a normal tone.“There’s an urgent meeting, so I have to go over…”Nicole nodded, said goodbye to Lil Michael, then returned the phone to Clayton.The moment the video call ended, Nicole saw a nice blue sky with white clouds as his wallpaper.It was very much in line with his character, pure and warm.Unlike other men’s phone screen, which was usually a sexy photo of a beautiful woman.This detail was really a plus point.Clayton took his phone and casually put it in his pocket. He looked at her fondly.“Next time, just let me know what you want me to bring the next time I come over.”He was happy to run errands for her.Nicole smiled. “Okay, I won’t be polite.”Clayton’s gaze was gentle as he looked at her. He suddenly reached out and could not resist touching her hair. He withdrew his hand just in time.He immediately turned around and left, afraid to see Nicole’s cold and detac
