Chapter 180
The Divorced Billionaire Heiress
Chapter 180 I Canât Get Arrested
Ferguson Corporation. Eric Ferguson looked at the latest gossip on the internet with furrowed brows.
Even Mitchell did not expect this turn of events.
This time, Eric should be happy because he had one less opponent, right? However, Mitchell did not
see a hint of joy on Ericâs face.
âMr. Ferguson?â Ericâs face was sullen. âI shouldâve thought of this⦠Kai didnât have any scandal with
anyone in the entertainment industry before⦠He was just nice to Nicole alone, so openly at that.
Turns out Kaiâs also Floyd Stantonâs son! If we didnât get a divorce, Kai wouldâve been my brother-in-
law!â It was pretty surprising.
Eric felt much better about this. However, when he recalled his attitude towards Kai yesterday, he felt a
little regretful.
If only Mitchell could read Ericâs thoughts. Mitchell would probably choke on his water.
Ericâs eyebrows sank coldly. âWhat else?â âEdmund Lynch, the Chairman of HS Corporation, is here
saying that he has something to discuss with you.â
âLet him in.â â âYes, sir.â Mitchell went out to invite the man in Although Edmund Lynch was older than
Eric Ferguson, he was still respectful and restrained in front of Eric.
âEric, I came here this time to ask if youâve thought about the West Coast Project yet?â As long as HIS
Corporation could take that project, the profits would be enough to sustain their expenses for one year.
Eric looked indifferent and expressionless. He did not rush to answer Edmund âIâve had people look
into it. Stanton Corporation has been eyeing that West Coast Project.
HS Corporation doesnât have an investment in it, so whatâs the point of you asking me if Iâm interested
in it?â Edmund Lynch smiled slyly and straightened his clothes. He was very confident.
âEric, as long as youâre willing to join, I can surely get it for you. Itâs a done deal, so you donât have to
worry about the rest.
âMr. Lynch, I must ask, whereâd you get the confidence to say this?â Ericâs gaze was affixed to the man
in front of him.
Edmund was slightly stunned. It seemed like Eric would not believe him if he did not reveal his trump
card. âWell, I approached the developer of this project, Tobias Stone.
Stanton Corporation has been working with him, but I bought him out at a high price. As long as he
stops work, Stanton Corporationâs West Coast Project wonât be able to proceed further.
When the time comes, they can only abandon the project or sell it off at a cheap price⦠)) Edmund
smiled with a glint in his eyes.
âEric, since Grant Stanton is abroad now, a woman like Nicole wonât be able to hold up Stanton
Corporation. This is a good opportunity to attack them. Donât forget how ruthless she was when she
dealt with your family.
You can take advantage of this opportunity to regain your familyâs reputation.â Ericâs face turned glum
and the air around him became colder.
Edmund saw that Eric did not respond and thought that Eric was considering this. Thus, he continued
to persuade Eric. âIf our companies work together, others can step aside.
Iâm sure Old Master Ferguson has mentioned the marriage alliance.
To fight Stanton Corporation, HS Corporation will surely have your back. My daughter⦠)) > âMr.
Lynch⦠Before Edmund could finish his sentence, Eric interrupted him with a cold tone.
âYou should know that whatever Old )) Master Ferguson says now is useless.â For a moment, Edmund
seemed to feel Ericâs bitter coldness.
The coldness and ruthlessness in Ericâs eyes were undisguised. The fact that he could even say such
disrespectful words about Old Master Ferguson in front of Edmund proved that Eric had the strength
and confidence to do so.
âThe Ferguson family is still not at the point of needing to rely on a marriage alliance for sustenance.
Back then, I could marry a penniless Nicole, so in the future, I wonât care who will become the matron
of the Ferguson family.
However, itâs definitely not going to be Jenny Lynch.â ) Every word Eric said carried a cold intent. In a
few short sentences, Eric managed to crush Edmund Lynchâs beautiful daydream. Back then, Old
Master Ferguson praised his daughter several times in front of him
. Thus, Edmund Lunch thought that old Master Ferguson intended to set up the young couple. Edmund
was so excited as if he had caught a big slice of pie falling from the sky.
However, Eric Ferguson just stated loud and clear that this marriage was absolutely impossible. âAlso,
Ferguson Corporation wonât participate in the West Coast Project.
Mr. Lynch, you can go ahead with your plans.â Eric was chasing Edmund away. Edmund thought that
he could be in the Fergusonsâ good graces, but he did not expect to return empty-handed this time.
âMr. Lynch, this way, pleaseâ¦â Mitchell stood on the side to send off the guest. Edmund Lynch could
not hide his disappointment.
As soon as he walked out, he received a call from Jenny. âDad, Stanton Corporation has hired a lawyer
to sue me. Please help meâ¦â
