Chapter 110

Outside the bathroom stall, Quinn and

Ingrid Ferguson were shaken.

“You… How did you get in here?” Ingrid

spoke in surprise and thought, ‘Wasn’t

Nicole kicked out of Stanton Corporation?’

Quinn was also slightly stunned, but

quickly covered it up and smiled calmly.

“She’s probably here to die. Nicole, you

should know when to stop.

Not every rich

family will accept trash… Let alone

secondhand trash…”

Ingrid felt emboldened. “Yeah, are you

here to make trouble? Too bad, no one will

help you anymore. The Stanton family

doesn’t want you, so your backer is gone

Nicole lowered her head and smiled, then

cast a sidelong glance at them and walked

out without saying a word.

Ingrid was blocking the doorway and did

not intend to give way to Nicole.

Thus, Nicole just shoved Ingrid to the side

when she passed her by. Ingrid was

caught off guard as her body slanted to

caught off guard a er body slanted to

the side and hit the wall. She was in pain

and was just about to curse at Nicole when

she suddenly saw Nicole’s cold dark eyes

that looked askance at her.

She was so

scared that she dared not say a word.

After Nicole’s figure gradually faded

away, Ingrid rubbed her shoulder that was

hurt by the impact and bared her teeth.”

She’s already an outcast. How dare she

throw a fit?! Sooner or later, I’ll show her

who’s boss!”

In the center of the banquet hall, the Stanton father-and-son pair calmly exchanged pleasantries with

their guests. Although Floyd Stanton had retired and taken a back seat in the company, he still did not

look a day over fifty as he kept a good exercise routine. Standing next to Grant, Floyd looked more like

an older brother.

“Chairman Stanton!” “Chairman Ferguson, what an honor.” Floyd Stanton shook hands with Old Master

Ferguson and greeted him in a cold voice. Eric bowed slightly. “Uncle Floyd.” “No, no… Just call me

Chairman Stanton.” Floyd laughed without accepting Eric’s greeting

Eric was stunned for a moment but quickly regained composure. Although they had dealt with each other

frequently in business, they did not have much of a personal connection. Floyd was clearly drawing a

clear line with the Fergusons privately based on his cold attitude, which puzzled Eric.

Old Master Ferguson did not notice this and was only exchanging pleasantries with Floyd. Grant

Stanton, who was standing on the other side, smirked and looked at Wendy Quade who was beside Eric.

He lifted his glass and said, “Mr. Ferguson, no wonder you’re so relentless towards your ex-wife. It looks

like you’ll be

announcing your marital news again, huh? I wonder which family’s daughter

can make Mr. Ferguson so devoted to

her?”

No matter how slow-witted Eric Ferguson

was, he could hear the mockery in Grant’s

words. His eyebrows were slightly

knitted, and his face was somewhat sullen

knitted, and his face as somewhat sullen and cold. Eric did not like other people prying into his personal

affairs, not to mention, Grant had an ongoing scandal with Nicole. ‘Is he trying to get justice for Nicole?’

Eric thought

Eric’s eyes were cold. Wendy heard this and could not wait to make a self- introduction. “I grew up

abroad. My eldest uncle is the Chairman of FQ Enterprise.” Grant nodded politely. “I see.” “Mr. Stanton,

do you know my eldest uncle?”

Wendy’s eyes lit up. Grant’s smile was cold with condescending scrutiny, but his voice was calm and

polite. “No, I’ve never heard of him.” Wendy’s smile froze as she felt embarrassed. Although Grant did

not say it directly, Wendy could feel the contempt in

his words.

Even so, Wendy still thought that she was

much better off than Nicole, who had

nothing to her name. Thus, Wendy did not

care about Grant’s attitude towards her.

De

“But the two of you do look good

together,” Grant added. Wendy bowed her

head and smiled shyly, while Eric’s face

sank.

“Mr. Stanton, are you so curious about my

personal matters?” There was a slight dip

between his eyebrows.

Grant smiled calmly and faintly, then

pursed his lips. “Maybe.”

He still wanted to say something, but

Ingrid ran over from a distance while

holding the hem of her dress. “Wendy…”

Eric’s face was grim. “Where are your

manners?”

Ingrid was so frightened that she

immediately stood upright and carefully

walked up to them. She then whispered a

few words into Wendy’s ear. Wendy’s face

lit up and the two girls ran away hand in

hand without greeting anyone

Eric narrowed his eyes in dissatisfaction.

Grant did not care. Floyd, who was on the

side, saw this and smiled. “Ms. Ferguson I

really bubbly It must be a very lively

side, saw this and sed. “Ms. Ferguson is

really bubbly. It must be very lively at

home…”

Old Master Ferguson laughed. “She’s just

spoiled and forgot all her manners.

Chairman Stanton, don’t mind her.”

Floyd sighed lightly with regret. “It’s a

pity my son works all day long and is

busier than I am, so I barely get to see him

at home.”

“It’s nice to have a daughter. Mr. Stanton,

if only you had a daughter, we’d probably

become in-laws…”
