Charlotte said, "M-Ms. Stanton... You..."
Nicole immediately explained, "Eric Ferguson is not in this room. This is my room! If you don't believe me, you can come in and see!"
Charlotte lowered her gaze and collected her lost and nervous expression.
She struggled to put on a smile. "No... No need, I..."
Charlotte could not seem to think of any excuse for coming over to see a man while dressed like that.
Moreover, that man was also Nicole’s ex-husband!
Embarrassment and panic suddenly made Charlotte somewhat at a loss for words. Her fingers clasped the wine bottle tightly as she bit her lower lip. Her face was as red as an apple.
This subtle tension felt unbearable to Charlotte.
Nicole looked at Charlotte and thought that she should not be partial to Sadie, so she proposed thoughtfully.
"I'll help you contact Mr. Ferguson so that you can talk to him in person!"
As an ex-wife, Nicole's enthusiasm and generosity were truly admirable.
Before Nicole could take out her phone, Charlotte took a step back in shock. "No need, Ms. Stanton. I suddenly remembered that I haven't memorized my lines for tomorrow yet, so I'll get going. I won't bother you any longer. Have a good night!"
After that, Charlotte turned to leave, but when she realized what she was holding, she turned back and handed it to Nicole.
"This is my homemade wine using my family’s recipe. You can try it..."
Before Nicole could thank her, Charlotte scurried away.
The way Charlotte ran was even more comical than Sadie earlier.
Nicole could not help but laugh when she looked at the wine bottle and two wine glasses in her hands.
It looked like even if Eric Ferguson was divorced, he was still very attractive as droves of women pounced o n him.
If Eric was not divorced, there would be even more, right?
Nicole's eyes turned cold. Back when they were married, Nicole had no right to care about how many women were around Eric.
Not to mention now that they were divorced.
Nicole took the wine in and leisurely poured herself a glass.
She took a small sip. The rich fragrance filled her nose cavity while the mellow and complex flavors spread throughout her mouth at once. It had depth, and its wonderful aftertaste lingered on her tongue.
