Chapter 407 Ms. Ferguson
Nicole sat on the balcony on the second floor, basking in the sunset with a cup o ftea next to her. www.noveljar.com
She squinted her eyes and felt a wave of sleepiness. She then heard deliberately lightened footsteps.
Nicole frowned. “Toto?” www.noveljar.com
“Ms. Stanton, you‘re so smart! You already know it‘s me without turning around. Your calm and cool temperament is so different from other women. I prepared some fruit for you. Was today‘s dinner still satisfactory?” www.noveljar.com
Toto nervously rubbed his hands with some apprehension in his voice as he continued, “Mr. Ferguson ordered those dinners. I don‘t know if they‘re to your taste. This is my first day on the job. I don‘t want to lose this job because
of the dinner. After all, I have a first class chef license...”
The corners of Nicole‘s upturned lips stiffened slightly. www.noveljar.com
Eric ordered these? I thought it was a coincidence that those are my favorite dishes... How did he know anyway?
Nicole‘s heart suddenly felt a little stuffy. www.noveljar.com
The more Eric put his heart into her, the more uncomfortable she felt. www.noveljar.com
Soon, Nicole regained her composure.
“I‘m not a picky eater, so you can cook whatever you want.” www.noveljar.com
After all, Nicole did not eat much. If she really did not like to eat it, she could just go back to the Stanton Mansion.
Toto still wanted to say more, but Nicole put down the teacup she was holding and took a deep breath. www.noveljar.com
“I almost forgot. I‘m going shopping with my friends later and will be back late. Remember to leave the door open
“Shopping? Do you need me to carry your bags?” www.noveljar.com
Toto excitedly volunteered for the job. I f he could gain Nicole‘s trust, it would definitely make his matchmaking tasks o much easier!
Nicole forced an awkward smile. “No need. Luca‘s with me.” www.noveljar.com

Inside the mall,
Yvette and Julie sat at the lounge massage chairs while waiting for Nicole. www.noveljar.com
Nicole looked at these two women and chuckled lightly. www.noveljar.com
“Shopping in the evening? Are you two
that busy lately?” www.noveljar.com
Julie rolled her eyes at her. “We‘re just tryna find ways for you to pass the time. Otherwise, there‘s no guarantee that your old feelings won‘t be rekindled if you face Eric Ferguson all day and night!” www.noveljar.com
Yvette nodded in agreement. “I heard that the old hag Quinn was hospitalized?” www.noveljar.com
Nicole raised her eyebrows and sat on the side. “You girls are pretty well informed, huh?” www.noveljar.com
Luca had the sense not to follow too closely. He was on constant alert not far away to ensure that Nicole was within a safe distance from him where he could react if needed.
Yvette and Julie took their bags and dragged Nicole around the mall. www.noveljar.com
“How can I not be well–informed? My
uncle is the director of that hospital. I heard that she was covered in blood when she was sent over and even woke u p cursing you. The strange thing is that the Fergusons kept this under wraps, and not a single person went over to visit her.”
Yvette looked at Nicole and continued,” Does this have something to do with
you?” www.noveljar.com
Nicole laughed lightly. Her eyes were cold.

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....
