Chapter 231
The Divorced Billionaire Heiress
Chapter 231 He Wants to Propose
There were three boxes altogether! The crowd was clearly getting excited. Nicole opened the second
box with mixed feelings. âHuh?â It was a white fall and winter hat.
The design was simple and there were no special features.
However, Nicole could tell at a glance that this was an out-of-season style from XNâs lineup two years
ago.
It was a limited-edition item at that time. However, it was not considered a limited-edition luxury
nowadays.
Yvette scoffed in disdain. âWhat the hell? I have one of these as well.
Itâs a style from several years ago! Arenât you being too perfunctory, President Ferguson?â 1 Julie looked
at the hat thoughtfully and remained silent. Nicole was also a little surprised.
There was a complicated look in her eyes. She opened the third box without hesitation. It was an
exquisite and fine jade bracelet.
The color was bright and pure, the texture was deep, and the workmanship was luxurious and exquisite.
It was flawless! Quaint, simple, and elegant, yet extremely charming.
It was also worth a lot of money. It most likely cost more than nine figures. Even if the monetary value of
the gifts all the guests sent today were added up, they would probably still be lesser than the two gifts in
front of her.
One was a diamond necklace. The other was a jade bracelet. Eric Ferguson was really quite generousâ¦
Nicole stiffened slightly.
She did not want to associate them with the past, but she could not help but remember. The first time,
she gave him a ring. He gave her a necklace in return.
The second time, she gave him a scarf. He gave her a hat in return. She did not give him anything the
third time, and he did the same. However, he gave her a jade bracelet today.
Was he trying to make up for all the gifts he owed her before? The things that she had stopped mulling
Hell over once again surfaced in her memory.
Her emotions tangled and her heart grew sour. Her expression also sank.
âEric Ferguson really has a knack for upsetting me, huh? Does he think that Iâll pretend as if nothing
happened if he does this? I clearly told him that we no longer have anything to do with each other, but he
keeps reminding me time and time again! Fine, in that case, donât blame me for being rudeâ¦
âMs. Stanton, youâre so fortunate to get two big gifts in one go! How thoughtful of Mr. Ferguson⦠I think
that you two are truly made for each other.
Why donât you take this opportunity to reconcile?â Hearing those words, Nicoleâs cold eyes glanced over
at the speaker. âHah⦠Chloe Snyder!â All the people that Nicole did not want to see showed up at her
party.
The people around them also pricked their ears and listened closely.
If these two amazing figures got together, it would be more sensational than any celebrity scandal! It was
something worthy of shaking up the entire business world.
If these two powerhouses joined forces, they would be invincible. The women who covet Eric Ferguson
would no longer have a chance.
The men and women around the pair did not want them to get back together. They secretly envied and
resented them.
However, Nicole was unmoved when she heard Chloe Snyderâs words. She even sneered. âSelling
myself for two gifts? Ms. Snyder, it seems like you havenât received a gift in a long timeâ¦â
Nicole pretended as if nothing happened and closed the lid of the box, ignoring Chloeâs nasty
expression.
Her expression was indifferent and unconcerned as if these were nothing to her. âIâll accept your gifts, Mr.
Ferguson.
Thanks.â Nicoleâs nonchalant appearance shocked the people around her. The relationship between Eric
Ferguson and Nicole Stanton was truly puzzling to outsiders.
It must be very awkward for an ex-husband to give his ex-wife a gift⦠However, everyone also secretly
admired the heiress of Stanton Corporation for being so worldly.
She did not bat an eye even when facing such expensive gifts. Her temperament was so calm and
valiant! Nicole turned around and left indifferently, not wanting to continue staying here and suffer the
crowdâs strange glances.
When Nicole subconsciously let out a sigh of relief, Yvette sneakily came up to her. Yvette grabbed
Nicoleâs arm and pulled her to the side.
âNikki, I just saw Ian secretly instructing the staff to prepare some kind of ceremony. I think he wants to
surprise youâ¦â Nicole frowned.
That did seem like something Ian would do. âThere were so many roses tooâ¦â Yvette murmured. Nicole
was confused.
âWhy would he need roses for a surprise?â âHe didnât tell us in advance, so both Julie 7/10 Scanned with
CamScanner Chapter 231 Hell and I donât know about this.
Julie told me to give you a heads up.â Yvette shook her head to express her exasperation towards Ian.
This was not a trivial matter. They had to distance themselves from each other! âGot it.
If Ian dares to make a scene here, my dad and my brother wonât let him off the hook!â Nicole snorted
coldly with confidence.
Whatever Ian was up to, todayâs birthday party had to be perfect! Yvette raised her brows and nodded.
There was a sudden noise outside. It suddenly attracted everyoneâs attention.
Someone shouted in surprise, â Fireworks!â Everyone looked over towards the window.
Huge fireworks burst into full bloom in an instant. The colors were bright and brilliant, burning the sky
with gorgeous colors.
While the fireworks raged on, their shape in the sky gradually changed from a beautiful rose into a
womanâs face. The woman had long wavy hair, clear eyes, and curved lips. Every detail was meticulously
designed with care.
What was even more amazing was that the personâs face became clearer to everyone. âIsnât that
President Nicole?â Someone finally spoke up.
âYes, itâs really her!â Nicole naturally saw this as well, and her initial admiration turned into astonishment.
Her look of surprise instantly sank. The brilliant and dazzling light illuminated the expensive land inch by
inch. In just a few minutes, it lit up the night sky of the entire city.
Nicoleâs birthday was celebrated with fireworks all over the sky. It was indeed quite flashy! The three gifts
Eric said he prepared had already been received. In that case, who prepared these fireworks if not Eric?
