Aida knew that Grant was angry, so she quickly comforted him.
“I’m okay. I was stopping him from hitting Selena. This injury is nothing compared to Selena’s.”
Grant gritted his teeth. “I won’t let that double-crosser go!”
Grant intended to remain indifferent to Eric’s punishment of Noah, but now, he wanted to add fuel to the fire.
Kai was also furious.
“Yeah, we can’t let him go! Noah doesn’t even respect Aida. It’s no wonder that he wants to bring down Stanton Corporation. Brother, let’s settle the old and new grudges together!”
Grant nodded with dark eyes.
Noah’s lewd gaze at Aida made Grant want to gouge out Noah’s eyeballs.
Aida was his treasure and someone he held dear. No one could desecrate her.
Nicole went over to look at Aida’s injury and said with concern, “You should put on some medicine first, Aida. It must be very painful.”
“It’s okay. I just can’t go out to meet guests like this, so you’ll have to work harder, Nicole.”
Aida smiled.
Nicole nodded. “Don’t worry, I will. Quick, put on some ointment. Otherwise, the swelling will be more severe tomorrow.”
They all hated Noah.
Aida was such a gentle and generous person, yet Noah dared to treat her with such contempt.
Noah was really asking for it.
Aida nodded and was taken away by Grant.
Kai went over and patted Nicole on the shoulder.
“I’ll stay here and watch over Dad. You can go and send off the guests with Clayton. There are probably more people watching the show now, so don’t let the news out.”
“Alright.”
Nicole glanced at Floyd and left immediately.
Clayton saw that it was almost time and had already started to send off the guests.
Seeing Nicole approaching, Clayton took off his coat and put it on her.
“Tired?”
Nicole hugged him with both arms and shook her head.
“Dad must be very sad. He’s so tolerant of his younger brother and always feels that Noah is his responsibility because they have been through hard times together. In fact, Noah didn’t have a hard life. He does one thing in front of Dad and another behind his back. He lives a more relaxed life than Dad. Dad still has to take care of us and the company. Dad is the one who had it rough!”
Clayton sighed and hugged her.
“Don’t worry. Dad knows what’s going on and won’t interfere anymore. Judging by Eric’s attitude, I don’t think that he’ll let Noah go so easily. If Dad doesn’t intervene, he won’t do anything to our family either.”
“I hope so. Noah is such a double-crosser and ingrate!”
It was rare for Nicole to be so angry.
Clayton stroked her hair and greeted the people who came over with a smile.
The man smiled meaningfully.
“Mr. Sloan, you and Ms. Stanton are so loving. We can smell the sweetness in the air from so far away. What do you make of us single people?”
Nicole raised her head and saw that it was an old business partner, so she did not care and let go of her hand with a smile.
“Then you should hurry up and find a partner for yourself!”
The other party pointed to Nicole and finally said goodbye.
It took a long time to send everyone away.
After all, it was Floyd’s birthday, so everyone wondered why Floyd did not show up in the end.
Nicole could only say that Floyd was not feeling well and fell asleep after taking some medicine.
Everyone did not dwell on it.
After everyone left, Nicole and Clayton returned to Floyd’s room.
Kai was still there. He called Julie to tell her about what happened.
Julie came to the banquet for a while, but she left in a hurry because she had to attend to something urgent at the office.
She was about to come back after resolving the issue, but Kai asked her to go straight to the Stanton Mansion because they would be staying there for one night.
It was already a mess here anyway.
Floyd woke up again and rubbed his temples.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Divorced Billionaire Heiress
I liked this book and wanted to read it. As I have moved into the chapters, I have found that it is unreadable due to typographical errors, including sentences that are incomplete, complete gibberish, missing elements. This is not just some misspelled words. It is actually unreadable. If you decide to fix this, let me know and I will read it....
