Nicole and Julie were shocked.
Subsequently, Nicole frowned and looked at the man. “Mr. Ferguson, didn’t you leave yet?”
Eric paused for a moment. His expression was a bit cool.
“I’m waiting for you.”
“Why are you waiting for me?”
Nicole was confused. It was a cold day and she still wanted to catch the next party with Julie.
Eric’s eyes were sunken, and his eyebrows were stern. He looked at her and reminded her. “Your cousin
soiled my clothes…”
’I won’t get calculative…’
Before Eric could finish his sentence, Nicole let out a cold laugh.
“She’s not my cousin. If you want to find her, just contact her directly. Don’t go through me. I’m not a fool
that will pay for others. If anyone tries to cheat you under the guise of being related to me, please call the
police. Thank you.”
Her eyes were nonchalant with a cold undertone.
Nicole admitted that she was disgusted by that woman,
Xandria.
Eric did not expect Nicole to react this way. If he had not seen Xandria at the Stanton Mansion, he would
not have believed it.
Nicole and Xandria were simply worlds apart.
After Nicole said her piece, she walked past Eric and got into the car.
Julie glanced at Eric from behind and got into the car.
She smiled. “Mr. Ferguson seems to be very disappointed…”
Nicole smirked and sneered.
“He’s just disappointed that no one will pay for that multi- million-dollar jacket…”
Anyway, Nicole would not fork out this money because she would rather donate it.
The two ladies went to the bar that they often went to, Tattle Bar.
As soon as they entered, the bar owner recognized them.
“You ladies must’ve made an appointment with Young Master Carter, right? He’s at the usual place.”
Nicole was surprised and glanced at Julie.
Ian Carter was there!
That private room was chartered by them. No matter how fully booked the bar was, this room would be
reserved for them.
When the two ladies reached the door, they heard the person inside wailing, which sounded
heartbreaking and touching.
Nicole was stunned and asked Julie in a whisper, “What’s up with him lately?”
Why was Ian in such despair?
Julie shook her head, indicating that she was not aware either.
Ian was still jumping around excitedly screaming about going to see the Aurora Borealis two days ago in
their group chat. Everything seemed fine then.
Hesitantly, Nicole knocked on the door, but there was no response.
She then pushed the door open.
A bottle was viciously hurled at her. “Who allowed you to come in?! Get out!”
Nicole dodged sideways. The bottle smashed on the door and fell to the floor, shattering to pieces.
Ian did not hold back his strength at all.
Julie reminded him. “Will you open your eyes to see who it is?! What happens if you kill her?!”
Ian’s cries stopped abruptly.
He raised his eyes and looked at the two people who appeared in front of him.
“You guys… Why are you guys here?”
Nicole walked over and surveyed his beautiful eyes that were red and swollen like walnuts from crying so
much.
On his handsome face, this looked very comical.
“Carter, even actors can’t cry as hard as you did. May I ask what you’re so hung up about?”
Ian looked away awkwardly and rubbed his eyes. “I didn’t cry…”
Julie laughed lightly.
“Aren’t you the one who was just wailing like a banshee? I recorded it!”
Ian glared at Julie fiercely. “You’re so mean!” Nicole laughed and looked at him.
“So, what’s the reason? Is your poverty alleviation business not going well? Or you can’t sell the produce
anymore?”
Nicole still vividIy remembered Ian’s high-profile charity some time ago.
Ian pursed his lips. “It’s nothing…” Nicole straightened up and sighed.
“It’s fine if you don’t wanna tell us. You can continue crying then, we’ll head out…”
Ian looked at Nicole in shock. ’This heartless woman is just gonna leave like that?!’
Nicole and Julie really took their things and left. Ian paused for a moment and immediately called out to
them. He spoke in a crying tone.
“Wait! My family wants me to have a marriage alliance…”
