Eric thought, 'I don't think I've ever received Nicole's calls...'
Mitchell hesitantly spoke, "I've mentioned it to you once before, but at that time, you said not to report such trivial matters to you. You also said in front of both me and Ms. Nicole that aside from things related t o Ms. Quade, you don't want to be contacted about unimportant matters from Imperial Gardens, so... I guess that's why Ms. Nicole stopped calling you..."
His volume gradually decreased as he seemed to notice the air around Eric getting colder.
Eric rubbed his brow and seemed to remember this scene. Back then, they were at their villa in Imperial Gardens, but Eric was only thinking of Wendy Quade's excessive blood loss and seemed to ignore another pair of expectant eyes that slowly became desolate.
He had only given Nicole the nominal marriage that she wanted, yet he chipped away at her heart and drew her blood.
His heart suddenly felt so painful that it was hard to breathe.
It seemed like he was beginning to get an answer to how Nicole went from being cautious to disheartened.
"President, the meeting..."
"Go and make an appointment with Nicole. I want to meet her." Eric knew that Nicole would not answer his call, and rashly showing up at her office was also rude.
"Their reply has been very clear. Ms. Nicole is not available," Mitchell said.
When Eric swept a glance at Mitchell with his gloomy eyes, Mitchell's heart jumped and a chill gradually spread throughout his body. Mitchell immediately added, "But I will keep contacting them until we get a n appointment."
"Get out. The meeting will be held as planned."
"Yes, sir." Mitchell let out a sigh of relief after he retreated respectfully.
'Why bother? What's the use of being attentive to her after the divorce?'
Stanton Corporation.
A few minutes after sending Old Master Ferguson away, Logan returned to Nicole's office and conveyed word for word what he had just heard to Nicole so that she could be prepared.
Once Nicole heard this, she laughed coldly. Old Master Ferguson had never liked her, so Nicole had already expected that he would not hold back when dealing with her. However, she never thought that he would make up scandals about her private life.
'He wants to keep me from marrying into an affluent family? That’s cruel!’
If an ordinary woman was treated like this, she would be ostracized for life.
