Read of The Divorced Billionaire Heiress-By I Wanna Eat Meat
Clayton did not say anything much and handed the phone to him.
“Call Autumn Ferguson.”
Without saying a word, Logan found the number and called it.
“Hello?”
Clayton took the phone, his tone extremely cold.
“Ms. Ferguson, I know you know where Nicole is. Tell me.”
Autumn did not speak.
After a full three seconds of silence, Clayton could not wait any longer.
Clayton loosened the opening of his collar. There was no room for negotiation in his tone.
“Ms. Ferguson, Nicole isn’t alone in the Stanton family. After today, if anything happens to her, the
Stanton family will come after you. Eric Ferguson loves Nicole so much, so he won’t protect you either.
He didn’t even protect his own sister, let alone you. As for Chairman Sloan beside you, according to his
temper, he’ll just pay a life for a life at most. He won’t fall out with the Stanton family. In the end, you’ll
be pushed out to take the blame. Understand?”
Clayton immediately restrained his emotions and calmed down.
Autumn sucked in a breath of cold air on the other side of the phone.
“That… That won’t happen.”
Clayton sneered and continued to speak.
“Also, Old Master Leonard let that reporter show up today probably because he wanted to make peace
with the Stanton family. When the time comes, do you think he’ll care about a god-granddaughter who
has no blood relations to him?” Without a doubt, the final sentence shattered Autumn’s last pillar of
hope. Old Master Leonard was her final way out.
Autumn was a marginalized person in the Ferguson family. Ingrid had a flamboyant character. How
would she allow Autumn to be compared with her? Ingrid relied on Old Master Ferguson and Eric’s
power to become the center of attention of the young ladies in the circle. No matter how ignorant and
rude Ingrid was, it could be gently brushed off by saying that she was naive. To avoid comparison with
Ingrid, Autumn could only go abroad for further education. Autumn felt like she was a different kind of
person from Ingrid.
Her high level of education was where she stood out the most.
After Autumn learned that Ingrid was forced out of the country and unable to return to Mediania
because she offended Nicole, Autumn came back happily.
Finally, Autumn could show herself off in this circle.
However, no one in the Ferguson family paid attention to her. Autumn could only rely on Old Master
Leonard with her silver tongue.
Now, if even Old Master Leonard gave up on her, the consequence was something she did not dare to
think about. Autumn stood there. The blood drained from her face as she listened to Clayton’s low
voice that carried a sinister coldness.
Every word seemed to block her retreat.
Autumn had not yet made a name for herself in this circle, but she was about to lose all the preferential
treatment she received.
”Tell me. Where exactly is Nicole?”
Clayton waited a few seconds and could not wait any longer. He repeated his question with great
impatience. Autumn opened her mouth and spoke in a trembling voice. ”The warehouse.” Clayton
immediately hung up the phone and turned to leave. Logan and the others followed closely.
In the warehouse.
Nicole was about to pass out from breathing in the smoke. She clenched her teeth. The unconquerable
strength in her body did not allow her to easily bow down. Even though the surrounding temperature
was extremely high, and it felt like she was in a large oven, she remained Conscious. Nicole struggled
to get up and went to a cluttered corner to find a rod.
It was quite handy for hitting people. Unfortunately, there was nobody else here. Nicole gritted her teeth
and went to the locked door. Barn — Barn — She pounded heavily on the door.
The fire spread, and there was already smoke coming in through the doorway below.
