Ch. 2611..2620

The Divorced Billionaire Heiress Chapter 2611 -Mitchell did not want to use such a despicable way to obtain cooperation.

However, he also knew that the business world was like a battlefield. This kind of interest replacement was very common.

As a staff of Ferguson Corporation, Mitchell should have spoken from Ferguson Corporation's perspective.

Thus, saying these words was a bit out of character for Mitchell.

It felt like stabbing Stanton Corporation in the back. If Nicole found out, it would definitely be another bloodbath.

Then, they might lose everything.

There was always more damage done when two behemoths fought.

Eric pondered with a solemn face.

'You don’t need to worry."

"Chairman Stanton's birthday party will be held tomorrow in a villa in the city center. Should we still go?"

Mitchell asked.

If they went at this time, they would really be shameless.

However, Eric was always unpredictable.

Thus, Mitchell had to ask clearly before he prepared any gifts.

Eric raised his eyes and glanced at Mitchell.

"Of course. Pick a few gifts and tell Selena to be prepared."

'Yes, sir."

Since they knew that Floyd and Selena were not father and daughter, then they should formally apologize for what happened previously.

Selena also felt sorry for hurting Nicole because of this and was looking for a chance to make it up to her.

Floyd’s birthday banquet was grand.

Kai purposely made it very lively to lift Floyd's spirits after being injured by Eric's people.

He invited many of Floyd’s old friends in the business world as well as many singers and dancers.

It was more like a New Year's Eve party.

Floyd was downstairs exchanging pleasantries with the guests when he saw a group of women dancing with their thighs exposed. He was truly horrified.

However, Kai was very satisfied with his arrangement.

It was a dazzling show which attracted many men and women to stop and appreciate it.

Floyd's face was red from anger, but he could not scold Kai in front of everyone.

Floyd was cursing Kai a million times in his heart.

It was so shameful!

Finally, the formalities were done. After cutting the cake, Floyd could not wait to let everyone drink and have fun.

He tried to grab everyone’s attention from the stage.

However, it was not very effective.

Clayton walked over with a smile, took Floyd's arm, and said, "Dad, this dance is a bit long. Shall we change it to a poetry reading instead?"

Floyd was taken aback for a moment. Then, he immediately praised his son-in-law’s taste.

'Yes, poetry reading is a traditional art that we should nurture the masses with. You have great taste! Much better than that idiot Kai!"

Floyd cursed in a low voice and added, "Change the program now!"

Clayton nodded with a smile, then asked someone to change the program.

Without the group of women flashing their thighs, the whole event felt a lot classier.

Kai was still a little disappointed. He came to Clayton angrily.

"Those girls are my company's artists. They finally have a chance to practice their talent. Why did you change them out?”

Before Clayton could speak, Floyd pinched Kai's ears and dragged him into the lounge.

'You little brat! Are you trying to mess things up? Do you think this is a bar or a club? This is my birthday party. I shouldn't have left it to you. I'm about to get a heart attack!"

"Dad, please forgive me! Daddy!"

Kai was dragged into the lounge while holding his ear in pain.

"No one said anything. I bet they envy you!"

Clayton smiled and loosened his collar. Instead of following them inside, he turned to look for Nicole.

Unexpectedly, Eric brought his wife here.

Clayton raised his eyebrows slightly. If Eric had not gotten married, Clayton would not have left Nicole's side at ease.

"Mr. Ferguson, it's great to have you here."

When Clayton returned to Mediania two days ago, he heard that Eric and Floyd had a very unpleasant row.

Clayton thought that Eric would not come, but he clearly underestimated Eric's thick skin everytime.

Eric glanced at Clayton lightly.

"Sorry to disappoint you. I'm here."

Every time the two men met, there was an inevitable tension between them.

Perhaps they were natural enemies.

However, Selena had a good impression of Clayton. She smiled and nodded.

"Mr. Sloan, I haven't congratulated you on your new baby!"

Clayton raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "We haven't made an official announcement yet. It seems that you’re indeed very close with my wife that she will tell you this secret."

Selena smiled. "I found out by chance. Shall I go say hello to her?"

"Sure. I'm just about to look for her. Shall we go together?"

Clayton stretched out his hand to lead the way.

Selena nodded and let go of Eric's hand.

"Don't you have your own business? You can go ahead and come find me later."

Eric nodded and gave Clayton a meaningful look.

He was warning Clayton not to talk nonsense in front of Selena.

The waiter took Eric to the door of the lounge and left.

Eric stood there, knocked on the door, and pushed the door open when he saw the commotion inside.

Kai was kneeling in front of Floyd and hugging Floyd’s leg.

Floyd could not even walk and was so angry that he was about to kick Kai away.

Seeing Eric standing at the door, Kai immediately stood up from the ground and tidied up his sleeves seriously. He had an indomitable indifference in his eyes.

"Hah! What a rare guest! What are you doing here again, Mr. Ferguson? Are you trying to find a chance to get my dad's DNA sample to do a paternity test for yourself this time? Are you so obsessed about being my dad’s son-in-law?"

Floyd coughed and glanced at Kai speechlessly.

"Go out if you have nothing to do."

Kai turned his head and stood there unconvinced.

"What if he bullies you after I leave? What if he pisses you off so much that you get a heart attack? I won't leave!"

Floyd gritted his teeth. 'You almost gave me a heart attack just now! Get out of here!"

Eric stood silently at the door and watched with an indescribably dark emotion in his eyes.

He had always known how the Stanton family got along.

They were still the same after decades.

It seemed that they would never have any grudges between the father and children, let alone any schemes and calculations.

They dared to speak their mind and diss each other. They would never hide their emotions.

Indeed, they were an enviable family.

Kai could not disobey Floyd, so he could only straighten his collar and walk out.

He deliberately wanted to bump Eric with his shoulder, but Eric predicted it and dodged the moment Kai wanted to hit him.

Kai did not control his strength and bumped into the door frame instead.

He gasped in pain for a moment and clutched his shoulder miserably. Then, he stared at Eric angrily.

This damned Eric! Kai hated Eric a little more.

Eric looked at Kai with a sly smile, but he quickly restrained it.

"Are you alright? I didn't know you would bump into me. Does it hurt?"

Kai was exasperated and thought, 'When did Eric become so fake? He can act better than me!'

The Divorced Billionaire Heiress Chapter 2612 -Kai glanced at Eric with a strange look before he left in displeasure.

He was an award-winning actor, yet he was crushed by a bullish man.

Who would believe it?

Eric lowered his head and chuckled lightly. Then, he shook his head and gathered his composure before he walked into the lounge.

He knew that Kai was still a child at heart and that he had not changed after so many years.

Otherwise, Kai would not have hugged Floyd's thigh and acted like a baby.

Floyd looked at all this without any emotional fluctuation. He sat there and was in deep thought.

Eric walked over and bowed slightly.

"Chairman Stanton, I would like to formally apologize to you for my recklessness last time."

The plaster on Floyd's arm had been removed, so he was able to move.

However, for Floyd, it was not the severity of the injury that determined the issue.

This small disturbance had indeed aroused a lot of resentment from the Stanton family.

However, Eric still had to do it.

Eric could not give up on Selena just because he was concerned about the Stanton family's reaction.

Floyd took a sip of the tea next to him, then raised his eyes slightly.

"Mr. Ferguson, didn't you already apologize last time? You don't have to offer this kind of fake politeness. I didn't cooperate because of you. I did it because your wife is my daughter's friend."

Eric pursed his lips. His expression was stern, but he showed some modesty and flattery.

"No matter what, you've helped me. I am very grateful and sorry. I'm not faking politeness, nor am I acting. Chairman Stanton, I sincerely want to express my apology."

Eric paused. His eyes deepened a little.

After a few seconds, Eric took out the contract that he had already prepared.

"I know that you don't lack anything, but this is my sincerity. I don't want the shares that Noah sold to me. So, this is a peace offering.”

Floyd took it over. When he heard Eric’s words, his face became extremely glum.

When Floyd opened the contract, his expression changed drastically.

Although he was no longer involved in the company's affairs, Grant and Nicole would bring some of the more important projects back to him to review.

Sometimes, through Nicole and Grant's conversations at home, Floyd could also get to know about the projects Stanton Corporation was currently handling.

The Highland Project in front of him changed from Stanton Corporation's headquarters to their Jericho City branch that Noah was in charge of.

The shares transfer document was also signed by Noah himself. Noah had transferred his shares of Stanton Corporation to Eric.

Floyd looked at the document for three full minutes.

His face gradually became gloomier as the seconds passed.

Even his breathing became a little faster.

His face was livid.

Suddenly, Floyd threw the documents in his hand on the ground.

'What's going on here, Eric? Have you been eyeing Stanton Corporation's shares and setting up a trap for Noah? Or did Noah go to you on his own initiative?"

Floyd asked bluntly.

Eric pursed his lips. His cold and handsome face was a bit reserved. In front of Floyd, he was more humble.

"Chairman Stanton, if I wanted Stanton Corporation, I would have plenty of opportunities to get my hands on it from the beginning. I didn't do anything to Stanton Corporation not because I couldn't, but because I wouldn’t do so. Noah came to me and offered to cooperate and transfer his shares to me just so that your headquarters will allocate more resources to Jericho City. Perhaps when the headquarters is running low on resources, his chance will come again."

Eric's tone was cold without any emotion.

He was arrogant and self-confident, but he also felt a little inferior. He could explain this to Floyd patiently because he felt apologetic to Floyd and Nicole.

Floyd's chest heaved, and he covered his chest. His face turned red with anger.

'This b*stard! He still hasn’t given up. I haven't treated him badly. How could he..."

Why was Noah so restless?

Floyd just wanted to have a quiet and intimate meal for his birthday this year.

However, Noah said that since he came all the way here just to celebrate Floyd's birthday, it must be more grand.

The relationship between Floyd and Noah was finally repaired, so Floyd naturally would not refuse Noah’s proposal.

"Chairman Stanton, you’ve read the contract, and I haven't signed the shares transfer document, so nothing has come into effect. Since I have given these things to you, how to deal with them is your business. I hope that my sincerity can appease you. But I'd like to remind you that if you don't cut your losses in time, you will end up suffering. Next time, if Noah finds someone else, they may not be as sincere as I am.”

Eric nodded lightly, then turned around and left.

Floyd sat there for a long time, watching Eric’s departing back quietly until Eric was gone.

He seemed to have a lot of things to say, but he did not know where to start when he opened his mouth.

Noah had already arrived and was entertaining the guests on behalf of the Stanton family.

Noah was enthusiastic about socializing.

Grant frowned slightly but could not say anything.

A waiter came and invited Grant and Nicole into the lounge.

The siblings put down the things in their hands and went inside.

Nicole went in and saw Floyd sitting stiffly on the chair. Floyd’s expression was gloomy, and he was completely different from his happy and joyful appearance earlier.

"Dad, what’s the matter? Did Kai make you angry?"

Grant paused. ”1 just saw Eric leave from here. What did he say?”

Floyd raised his head slowly, knocked on the table, and pointed to the contract thrown on the ground not far away.

"Look at that."

Grant picked it up from the ground with a solemn expression. After a few glances, his expression changed drastically.

Nicole saw it too. Her heart sank, and her eyes instantly turned cold.

"Uncle Noah is going to sell his shares? And he's planning to sell them to Eric?"

Grant's tone was cold and serious.

"It's more than that. He took advantage of the loophole of our cooperation and snatched the opportunity between our headquarters and Ferguson Corporation for his Jericho City subsidiary. Moreover, Ferguson Corporation has the final say, and Stanton Corporation has been marginalized in this cooperation. Not only have we been marginalized, but we also need to spend twice as much resources based on the conditions. Uncle Noah wants to sell out our company to satisfy his greed!”

Nicole’s face was glum. "Is he crazy?! He must be senile!”

Grant looked indifferent. "When the time comes, our headquarters will have to allocate our resources to Jericho City for this contract, and other projects will be abandoned. With the shortage of funds, Stanton Corporation will be in a crisis."

He gritted his teeth irritably. "Uncle Noah is really crazy!"

Floyd sat there silently and sighed.

"Selling his shares is still understandable. In the beginning, we had him sign the agreement so that he only got dividends. He doesn't have the right to transfer and use them, but he probably forgot about this. He thought that he was still a shareholder of Stanton Corporation since he still gets the dividends. I allow him to stay put at Jericho City so that he’ll have some wealth. But he just wants to make such a big mess! What do you guys think we should do?"

Floyd handed the business empire he built from scratch to his two most suitable children.

They had never let him down.

If Floyd handed over the company to Noah, it would really be destroyed

The Divorced Billionaire Heiress Chapter 2613-Floyd would not let Noah destroy the company.

For this reason, he would rather disown his younger brother.

Grant's face was stern, and he was exuding a chill.

"Dad, according to the company's regulations, it is illegal to transfer shares without the approval of the shareholders. The contract he signed has also affected the interests of the company. It'll be kind of us to kick him out of the company. I don’t think there is any need to continue giving him the annual dividends. He's not capable enough to find a job on his own. Our family has been supporting him financially for decades. Isn't it enough?"

Floyd closed his eyes and did not speak. He looked to be in a dilemma.

After all, Noah was his brother. Although Noah had bad intentions, Floyd had been tolerant of him many times.

Now that Floyd was pushed over the cliff, he had to make a decision and felt uncomfortable.

Nicole snorted coldly.

"Dad, we can’t keep him around. We're not sending him to jail because he’s our relative. You treat him as a brother, but he treats you as a fool. He wants to destroy Stanton Corporation. If you let him go this time, he will only find another way to cause us more trouble. Do you think that there will be more people like Eric, who wouldn't take a bite out of such a big piece of pie?"

Floyd's eyebrows twitched.

Suddenly, he opened his eyes.

Floyd gritted his teeth. His face was cold.

"I'll give him one last chance tonight. It's what I owe him as a brother. If he can take the initiative to admit his mistakes, please let him go this time for my sake. But I will ask him to leave Stanton Corporation and you can take all the power in Jericho City back. But if he still refuses to admit his mistakes and continues down this path, then I won't show him mercy anymore."

Nicole and Grant looked at each other.

Both of them understood that this was a big concession from Floyd.

However, they were not worried because they did not believe that Noah would admit his mistake.

Noah was so close to success. How could he regret his actions so easily if there was no real threat?

The guests outside were in full attendance. Everyone was chatting with each other, and it was very lively.

The banquet was organized uniquely, and the poetry reading on the stage added more color to the event.

Selena was saying hello to Aida. They were not familiar with each other, but Aida had an attractive vibe. She was the most eye-catching presence in the crowd.

Selena had heard Nicole mention her sister-in-law. Aida was highly- educated and emotionally intelligent. She was also beautiful and capable.

Looking at Aida today, Selena felt enviable.

Although Selena ran a small bar, she was still too far away compared to Aida.

After Aida finished chatting with others, she turned her head and saw Selena.

Aida walked over with a kind smile.

"How are you, Mrs. Ferguson?"

"You know me?"

"Of course! I went to your wedding, but I came back a day later because my son at home suddenly had a fever. I was really worried, but he's much better now."

Aida's voice was soft and sweet, like the feeling of spring breeze blowing on Selena's face.

Selena smiled. "That's good. Children need more attention."

While the two were talking, a man came over and smiled darkly.

"Aida, where's Grant?"

"Uncle Noah, Grant went to look for Dad."

"In that case, you should accompany me to greet the guests."

Noah casually bossed Aida around. Everyone said that Aida had a good temper and that she was a soft person. Thus, Noah thought that he could order her around.

Aida was beautiful. Otherwise, someone with such strong self-control like Grant would not have been infatuated with her.

Especially after giving birth, Aida's body was even more stunning.

However, Aida was a mere woman. There were women like her everywhere.

Aida had no sense of presence in the Stanton family. She was just a little invisible woman who was in the way.

She did not even join Stanton Corporation, so Noah thought that Aida must not be capable enough.

Grant could still tell the difference.

Aida smiled and looked at Noah politely.

"Uncle Noah, I’m talking to a guest, so I won’t accompany you. You can go by yourself."

She smiled slightly, then turned to look at Selena.

"Mrs. Ferguson, Levi and Chance are good friends. Please let Chance come over more often for play dates."

Selena nodded in a daze.

What Noah said just now was short of a blunt order.

He did not show Aida much respect either.

That tone and attitude suddenly made Selena think of someone.

How strange. Why did she suddenly think of that "Mr. Stanton" from her mother's diary?

In the diary, her mother was powerless against Mr. Stanton's power and was forced to obey.

However, Aida refused without hesitation or changing her expression.

Only then did Noah see Selena who was opposite Aida. He paused slightly.

Noah went elsewhere. When he came back, he held a glass of rainbow cocktail and handed it to Selena.

"Mrs. Ferguson, since you're here, I presume that Mr. Ferguson is here too. I’ll have a few more drinks with him in a while. It's really nice for him to come."

Selena was a little uncomfortable with Noah’s attitude, but she accepted the drink politely.

'Thanks."

"Why don’t you try this cocktail? I heard that you run a bar, so you must have studied a lot about alcohol. I have tried almost all the drinks here.

This Rainbow Cocktail is most suitable for women since the alcohol content is low."

Noah looked at Selena politely as if waiting for her to express her feelings.

Selena paused and felt a little uncomfortable.

Aida paused, then said with a smile, "Uncle Noah, aren't you going to greet the guests? Just leave the lady guests to me, lest the other guests say that we're neglecting them!"

Noah took a meaningful look at Aida.

"Is there a difference between men and women when entertaining guests? You've been in the Stanton family for a long time, but you don't even understand this? On this kind of occasion, you should also be greeting the male guests. You're Grant's wife, so why are you so petty?"

Noah mercilessly accused Aida in front of Selena, an outsider.

Selena was stunned.

Aida paused slightly. Her face turned pale, and she clenched her fists tightly.

"Uncle Noah, you must be joking. I am indeed Grant's wife, but my husband and brother-in-law are free to entertain the male guests. Besides, Nicole is also here. It's not my turn to take the lead. Dad also said that I should take it easy because I still have to take care of the children."

"Hmph! You just like to make excuses for yourself because you’re not capable. Why don't you take a look around? Which wife doesn't socialize with her husband?"

Noah accused Aida and even dared to diss her.

Aida chuckled. Her voice was soft like silk.

"Uncle Noah, you must be kidding. My husband is talking about business. I just don't feel like socializing with you."

There was a hint of sharpness in her soft tone.

It made Noah's face turn glum.

Noah did not gain the upper hand in front of outsiders.

'You..."

Aida looked away, turned to Selena, and smiled slightly. She looked gentle and generous.

"Mrs. Ferguson, will you sit with me over there?"

"Mrs. Ferguson, you still haven't told me how this cocktail tastes.

The Divorced Billionaire Heiress Chapter 2614-Noah suddenly interrupted Aida.

Selena paused.

It was a bit difficult to get away with it.

It seemed that she must try this drink.

Aida wanted to say something, but Selena smiled and said," Okay, I’ll try it.”

The moment the strong and sweet liquid entered her throat, Selena felt as if a hand was strangling her neck. She shook violently, and the deep pain in her heart spread throughout her whole body.

At this moment, her blood seemed to flow backward.

Her face turned pale instantly.

She put down the cocktail glass and looked at Noah with dark and empty eyes.

Her heart was beating violently with unspeakable panic and fear.

Why?

That was because she tasted pollen in the cocktail. 1

Selena was sensitive to the ingredients in drinks. She ran a bar, so she knew what a drink tasted like with pollen in it.

Back then, when Eric held the banquet after their wedding, they deliberately spread rumors that Selena was allergic to pollen in order to catch the suspect.

However, the suspect did not take the bait at that time.

They thought that the suspect was not among the group they invited.

Unexpectedly, it turned out to be this man in front of her.

Pollen allergies could lead to suffocation.

Noah really wanted his daughter to die!

Selena’s heart clenched. Even her breathing became a little difficult.

She was not allergic to pollen, but her reaction was stronger and more obvious than any allergic reaction.

Selena's face flushed red, and her breathing was labored.

Aida immediately noticed that something was wrong and went to support Selena.

"Mrs. Ferguson, what’s the matter? Is something wrong? Is there something wrong with this drink?"

Noah rolled his eyes at Aida.

"Don’t talk nonsense! Your husband and I personally checked the drinks here. How could there be any problems? Maybe it's because of the alcohol. She's just not used to it. Get someone to take her to the lounge to rest for a while."

"But this isn’t normal. Why don't you call Mr. Ferguson to come over and have a look? Ask someone to call a doctor."

Aida took out her phone and planned to make a call.

Noah snatched the phone from Aida and threw it on the ground. He stared at Aida fiercely.

"Don’t you understand what I'm saying? Take her to the lounge first and leave her there alone. Why are you making a fuss by calling a doctor? It's my brother's birthday. Are you trying to ruin the party?"

Aida looked at Noah in shock.

Usually, Noah could still maintain a superficial politeness.

However, Noah dared to do this. His bad attitude seemed to trigger the release of the demons in his heart.

Some people around them heard the commotion.

Noah was very good at pretending. He turned his head to joke with others and smiled helplessly.

"She had too much to drink. It’s okay. Carry on..."

Aida held Selena's hand and comforted her patiently.

"It’s okay. I’ll call someone for you."

Selena just held Aida's hand. She had already regained her senses and calmed down.

What she was facing was not her father, but a demon.

He was a demon that destroyed her and her mother.

He was a devil who pretended to be human for twenty years and wanted to kill his daughter at her wedding.

If it was not for that cocktail, Selena might never have known who her biological father was.

Was the way Noah looked at Aida and the way he ordered Aida to accompany him to socialize the same way he treated Selena's biological mother twenty years ago?

Countless sorrows flooded Selena's heart in an instant.

The heaviness and sadness she felt were about to overwhelm her in an instant.

The words in her mother's diary drilled into her mind one by one.

Selena seemed to feel the despair between those lines, and it was brought by the man in front of her.

Mr. Stanton was Noah.

Noah saw that Aida was dallying, so he walked over and pushed her away.

"I'll help her. Leaving her here will just affect everyone's mood."

"Uncle Noah, don't forget where we are right now. She is Eric Ferguson's wife, not just a random woman."

Aida's eyes were cold as she warned Noah.

Noah paused, then chuckled.

"What are you thinking of? Of course, I know that she is Eric's wife. I’m close to Eric, which you aren't aware of. I won't do anything to her. I'll just take her to the lounge. If

you don’t believe me, you can come along!"

Of course, Aida was worried.

She looked around but could not see Grant and Nicole anywhere.

If Noah took Selena away and something happened to Selena, the consequences would be disastrous.

Aida had to follow them.

She was about to leave while holding the hem of her dress when she accidentally bumped into someone.

"Aida, why do you look so angry?"

Kai supported her.

Aida looked at Kai as if she found a savior and instantly felt relieved.

"Kai, hurry up and find your elder brother. Quick! Noah took Mrs. Ferguson away. I'm worried that something will happen to her. Mrs. Ferguson is feeling unwell..."

She spoke incoherently and chased after Noah and Selena.

Aida would have taken other people with her if she was not worried about making a fuss.

Kai frowned tightly. "Mrs. Ferguson is unwell..."

He paused and did not dwell on it. Then, he immediately went to find someone.

Aida watched as Noah took Selena to the innermost lounge.

The door was not locked.

Aida breathed a sigh of relief and pushed the door open.

She watched as Noah put Selena on the sofa.

Selena was not in the right state. Her eyes were dull and dazed, and her face was flushed, but her lips were white.

She was breathing heavily as if she was really having an allergic reaction.

On the other hand, Noah stood motionless not far away and watched with cold eyes.

He did not care about Selena's survival.

Aida walked over. "Mrs. Ferguson, are you okay? Are you allergic to something? Or is this an asthma attack? Do you have any medicine with you?"

Selena's tears flowed out in a daze.

She tried to control her emotions, but she could not control her heart.

Selena had to continue this act until Noah showed his true colors.

She shook her head at Aida.

Aida sat there worried and planned to pour her a glass of water.

"Don’t worry. I'll call the doctor right away."

Before she could hand over the water to Selena, the glass was snatched away and fell to the ground.

The carpet instantly became wet.

Noah locked the door and came back, looking down at them.

Aida raised her head in shock.

"Uncle Noah, what are you doing? Couldn't you see that Mrs. Ferguson isn’t feeling well? If something happens to her here, do you want Eric to turn against our family?"

Noah sized up Aida lewdly.

"You have a way with words, huh? No wonder you can bewitch Grant. You're just like Selena. You two have the ability to enchant people. Eric liked Nicole before, but now he likes Selena. He probably just thinks this woman is easy to handle. Otherwise, why didn’t he choose among the many well-matched women but chose this b*stard child instead?"

When he said this, his cold and stern eyes fell on Selena.

It made Selena shudder.

Hearing this, Aida was furious.

She stood up abruptly.

"Noah Stanton, do you know what you are saying?!"

The Divorced Billionaire Heiress Chapter 2615-Noah looked at Aida and narrowed his eyes with a bit of disdain and lewdness.

He pointed at Aida.

"Hah! You won't even call me Uncle Noah anymore, huh? Aida, let me see how long you can pretend. Do you really feel sorry for her? Your family has also fallen from glory. If it were not for Grant, you would end up being someone else’s mistress. How dare you put on airs in front of me just because you gave birth to two sons for Grant?"

Aida was so furious that her face turned red. She clenched her fists and slapped Noah.

Noah's face was cold and glum.

"How dare you hit me?!"

"Why won't I dare to? You said a load of trash. Even if Grant and Dad are here, I will still dare to hit you!"

Aida's face was cold. Her eyes were contemptuous and distant.

There was no need to hide her disgust toward this uncle anymore.

It brought Aida great joy to lash out at Noah.

Just as Noah was about to fight back, Selena panted and sat up on the sofa with difficulty.

"Mr. Stanton, please call a doctor for me. Aren't you cooperating with my husband? How can you watch me die?"

Selena wanted to hear Noah speak his mind.

Noah paused, calmed down, and sneered.

"Without antihistamines, an allergic reaction should take around half an hour to suffocate a person and cause death, right?"

There was a bit of coldness and joy in his eyes.

Aida was shocked by that psychotic look in his eyes.

Aida suddenly wanted to run out of the room, but Noah grasped her arm tightly, flung her back, and threw her beside Selena.

"Since you're already here, there's no need to leave. I'll get rid of you after I'm done with Selena."

He smiled maliciously. His eyes fell on Selena again.

"Actually, I don't plan on hurting you. But why did you have to marry Eric Ferguson?"

Selena widened her eyes.

"I knew it was you! You were the one who asked Jennifer Nelson to kidnap me at my wedding, and you were the one who added pollen to the drink, right?"

Noah could not help but raise his head and laughed loudly.

"You asked for it, so you can't blame me. Mr. Ferguson told me about your pollen allergy, so you can blame him. I ought to thank him for this. Otherwise, it would be quite difficult to kill you in Mediania. Well now, after half an hour, I’ll go out and say that you ate pollen by mistake and died. It has nothing to do with anyone. As for you..."

Noah's gaze landed on Aida's face.

There was a bit of murderous intent in his eyes.

He raised his hand, wanting to touch her face, but Aida pushed him away.

Noah smiled slowly as if he was not in a hurry to touch her.

In the face of life and death, Noah did not believe that Aida would be so cold and rigid.

Sooner or later, Aida would kneel before him and beg him to spare her life.

Selena's face was pale.

"You forced my biological mother to commit suicide. I never thought of settling accounts with you, and I was even clueless about it. How could you do this? Why do you want to kill me? I don’t understand."

Noah sneered and stared at her.

"So, you do know it after all. Then, you must know that I'm your biological father, huh?”

Aida’s eyes widened in shock for a moment.

Selena sat there with a tense and stiff face. She clutched her chest and panted heavily.

Tears fell involuntarily down her face.

The person Selena was looking for was not Floyd, but Noah, who was protected under Floyd's wings.

Only Floyd and Noah would be called "Mr. Stanton" back then.

Noah was not as capable as Floyd, so it was easy for him to be overlooked and forgotten.

However, with Stanton Corporation's power and as Floyd's younger brother, Noah naturally rose to the top and was highly regarded back then.

In order to get the project, Joel Nelson offered up his wife. Since then, things had gotten out of hand.

They fed a devil's greed with their lives.

Noah smiled coldly.

"Don’t hate me either. I really liked your mother at the time. I asked her to divorce her husband and be with me, but she didn’t agree. Instead, she stabbed me and castrated me, so I'm unable to have children. I hate her so much. She wanted to die, yet she wanted to make me childless for the rest of my life. Do you think that I will treat you kindly if you are my daughter?"

His eyes were filled with indifference and arrogance.

"When I knew you were my biological daughter, I only felt extremely disgusted. Your mother was mocking me. She thought that I would love you dearly if I only had you as my

child. Pooh! I won't do as she wishes. I'd rather raise someone else's child than make your life easier. You're right. I could've kept my hands clean. But why did you have to marry Eric? You told the Nelsons that Eric would be your backer in the future and that you will have your revenge for all the grievances you suffered. If I don't kill you beforehand, won’t I lose the upper hand when Eric finds out the truth for you? Instead of waiting for you to settle the score with me, I might as well act first. Whatever your mother owes me, I will get it back from you!"

Noah’s face became glum and distorted.

The madness and recklessness on his face were appalling.

Selena burst into tears. She could not control the tears from flowing out.

However, there was no emotion on her face.

She listened in a daze as Noah vented in outrage and thought it was extremely ridiculous.

Who even asked to be his child?

If Selena could choose her parents, why would she choose to be born into such a family?

Selena's eyes were empty and lifeless. She only felt sorry for her poor mother.

Her mother let her live because of a thought of kindness, but the devil did not intend to let her live.

Selena suddenly laughed and slowly stood upright. She looked at him with dark and cold eyes.

"You can't get it back. My mother died because of you. You made her lose her happy family, and you slowly drove her to a dead end. Why do you have the cheek to settle the score with us? Noah Stanton, you should be grateful to my mother for not planting the seeds of hatred in my heart. That’s why I didn't settle accounts with you. You are the one who deserves to die! But you have enjoyed such a blessed life for more than 20 years. How unfair is that?!"

At this moment, Selena no longer clutched her chest and had stopped panting. Her face was no longer flushed, and she no longer looked weak.

Noah frowned and looked at her.

"How did you suddenly recover?"

After he said that, there was a commotion at the door.

Someone kept knocking on the door.

Grant's voice came through.

"Aida, are you in there?”

Aida's eyes suddenly became sore, and she hurriedly stood up.

"Grant..."

As soon as she finished speaking, Noah violently pushed her onto the sofa and slapped her across the face.

"You'd better behave!"

The noise at the door grew louder.

Eric was impatient and wanted to kick open the door.

"Selena..."

Selena shouted loudly, "I'm fine. I won't die just yet."

She looked at Noah with mockery and indifference in her eyes.

"Of course. I’m fine. That's because I faked the pollen allergy. From the moment I drank that cocktail, I knew that you wanted to kill me because you served me that drink. You were also the only one who knew about my pollen allergy."

The Divorced Billionaire Heiress Chapter 2616 -Panic and shock flashed on Noah's face.

There was anger and chill in his eyes when he looked at Selena.

Noah took a step forward and approached her step by step with a sinister and indifferent air about him.

Selena met his gaze without fear.

"rm disgusted that your blood is flowing in me, but I will live well so that I can disgust you with my presence!"

Noah violently choked her neck and pressed her on the sofa.

His actions were vicious, and the veins on his forehead were bulging with determination.

"Go to hell and reunite with your mother!"

Aida went over to push him in shock.

"You're crazy! Noah, let go!"

Aida went to the side and picked up an ashtray to smash it on his head. The blood on Noah’s head slowly flowed down, but he still did not let go.

His terrifying look made it seem like he had come from hell.

Noah used all his vicious strength in his hands and tightly strangled Selena’s neck.

Selena could not breathe, and her face flushed and turned purple...

Seeing that the situation was awry, Aida hurriedly opened the door.

The door was custom-made so that it would be difficult to force it open from the outside.

At that moment, Eric coincidentally kicked the door.

Aida was kicked back because of the force, but she could not care less now.

Eric rushed in.

Seeing that scene, his eyes instantly turned red.

He stepped forward quickly and kicked Noah away.

Selena breathed heavily.

Eric held her in his arms, and soon let go.

He unbuttoned his shirt with a gloomy and cold expression.

Then, Eric grabbed Noah’s shirt and punched him repeatedly.

Every punch was using his full strength.

Noah struggled at first, but soon, he became motionless like mud.

In the end, Noah's head was covered in blood, and it was hard to tell his original appearance.

Kai stopped Eric.

"Eric, do you want to go to jail?”

They did not stop Eric at first because they knew that he wanted to vent his anger and that Noah deserved it.

Everyone would have the urge to kill Noah when they saw that scene.

Grant went over to hug Aida, kissed her gently, and asked in a low voice.

"Are you okay?"

Aida shook her head and tugged at his clothes.

She then told him what happened just now.

Grant's face became darker.

Nicole supported Floyd over, and they were stunned when they saw this scene.

The mark on Selena's neck was really shocking.

Floyd's face changed slightly. "Go and call the doctor."

Selena touched her neck. Only now did she belatedly feel the dull pain that felt like a knife cutting her flesh.

Eric stared at Noah fiercely.

He glanced at Floyd and chuckled lightly.

"Chairman Stanton, it looks like the sincerity I offered was superfluous. Now that certain things have come to my attention, the situation is different."

"Mr. Ferguson, what do you want to do?"

"I want to take him away, regardless of his survival."

Eric's tone was sharp. The indifference and contempt in his eyes were as sharp as a falcon’s murderous intent on its prey.

Floyd narrowed his eyes, walked over, and looked at Noah, who was already unconscious on the ground. Then, he sighed.

"Everyone will have to face the consequences of their actions sooner or later."

Floyd did not plan to care about Noah anymore.

Originally, he still had a glimmer of hope for his younger brother.

Floyd looked forward to Noah's repentance.

However, Noah actually wanted to kill Eric’s wife at his birthday party.

The results were self-evident.

If the Stanton family and the Ferguson family turned against each other, all interests involved would be lost.

Noah wanted to destroy the Stanton family and kill Selena. No matter what the price was, Floyd did not want to care anymore.

Floyd suddenly felt exhausted, and he could not say a word.

He turned his head to look at Selena with distress and struggle in his eyes.

"Girl, before I read the diary you showed me, I didn't know about what happened. After reading the diary, I only suspected him. I wanted him to admit it himself, but now it seems that I was too naive. In the past twenty years, the Stanton family has wronged you. Don't worry, I will give you justice."

Selena's complexion was ashen, and she coughed violently.

Eric stepped forward, picked her up, and asked the bodyguards who came in to take Noah away.

Eric left.

When the bodyguard first moved Noah, he resisted violently.

"Brother, save me! You can't just leave me alone! If I fall into Eric's hands, will I still survive?"

Floyd's eyes were tired and calm.

"You asked for it, Noah. Haven't I given you enough? You actually want to betray me and Stanton Corporation. Eric already gave me the contract that you signed with him. Even if he doesn't settle the score with you, I won’t let you go!"

Noah was taken aback for a moment. Then, he immediately cried out.

"I was deceived, Brother! It was Eric's trap! Brother, save me »»

"Stop pretending."

Floyd turned around and left.

Seeing this, Noah could not help but yell.

"I have a share in Stanton Corporation, but you only think about your children. What about me? You think that you don't need to give me any power because I don’t have children. You’re afraid that I’ll give my shares to outsiders. Aren't you selfish? Do you think I'll be grateful to you for giving me money?”

Floyd shook slightly and was almost unable to stand still.

Nicole supported Floyd from behind and urged Eric's bodyguards.

"Hurry up and take him away."

Noah was trash. They did not want to get their hands dirty by handling him themselves.

Since Floyd did not intend to save his brother, Eric could do whatever he wanted.

Noah cursed incoherently and was carried away by the bodyguards.

Although they left through the back door, many guests still saw the commotion.

Floyd was not in the mood to celebrate anymore.

He suddenly realized that the purpose of Noah's suggestion to do something special was to find an opportunity to get close to Selena so that he could take the opportunity to attack her.

Noah wanted to drag the entire Stanton family into trouble. Floyd's eyes darkened, and he immediately passed out.

"Dad..."

Nicole and Grant stepped forward. Grant took his father into another lounge and immediately called the doctor.

Clayton was outside stabilizing the crowd, so this small episode did not affect the guests.

Kai asked for the surveillance footage to see what happened.

Grant saw how rude Noah was to Aida, as well as Noah's contempt and insult toward her. His face turned livid.

Aida was still there taking care of Floyd, unaware of her husband’s emotional changes.

After the doctor gave Floyd an injection, Nicole sat beside her and noticed Aida's swollen face when she looked up.

Nicole stood up in surprise.

"Aida, what happened to your face?"

Aida touched the side of her face that Noah slapped, which felt hot and a little painful.

She covered it with her hair and comforted Nicole with a smile.

"It’s nothing."

As soon as she said that, Grant went over, grabbed Aida's hand, and brushed her hair away. Seeing the slap marks on her delicate face, he was infuriated.

"Did Uncle Noah slap you?"

The Divorced Billionaire Heiress Chapter 2617-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.

He glanced around. His eyes were somewhat gloomy and hurt.

Floyd looked at Clayton.

"Why don't you take Nicole back to rest? She's pregnant now, so she shouldn't stay up late."

Clayton poured him a glass of water and handed it over gently.

"She's worried about you, Dad. So, she won't be able to sleep anyway. Are you feeling better?"

Floyd sat up and sighed.

"What a disaster..."

Nicole sniffled and walked over.

"Dad, we don’t plan to intervene in Uncle Noah's affairs anymore. Although you're merciful, we shouldn't risk everything we have to fight for such a scumbag. Did you know that he also humiliated Aida and hit her?"

Floyd was slightly startled. He looked at her with disbelief.

'That b*stard!"

Kai stroked Floyd's chest from the side.

"Dad, don't be angry. We just want you to promise that you'll leave this to Grant and stay out of it.”

Floyd’s chest heaved up and down, and he waved his hand away.

"I know. I won’t be soft-hearted. If he dares to hurt our family, I won't be polite to him. I used to think that he was ignorant and had no bad intentions. But when Selena appeared, I realized the devil that Noah was!"

Over the years, Noah had been too good at pretending.

Noah made everyone think that he was just a wimp that succumbed to his wife's demands.

Perhaps he was just using Jade.

Noah had not fathered any children for so many years, nor had he ever cheated or fooled around with women.

That was because Noah was impotent.

Jade and her daughter, Lydia, were just a cover for Noah to deceive others.

Kai nodded.

As long as Floyd was not soft-hearted, they could handle this nicely.

Eric brought Selena back to their home.

Now that they knew who Selena’s biological father was, it was much easier to investigate in that direction.

Eric wanted to give Selena a checkup first.

The doctor was waiting at home.

Chance, who had just returned home, was also staring at the doctor, waiting for his parents.

When Eric and Selena went in, the doctor stood up.

"What happened?"

Selena's voice was a little hoarse, and she could hardly speak.

Noah used all his strength to strangle her to death.

Selena’s eyes were also extremely red and bloodshot.

"Examine her quickly."

Eric carried Selena upstairs in one breath.

The doctor and Chance hurriedly followed.

After a thorough examination, the doctor breathed a sigh of relief and took out an ointment.

'This is for external use. I’ll bring the oral medicine tomorrow. Tonight, she won't be able to take anything as her throat is still sore, so oral medication wouldn't work. She can eat when the swelling subsides tomorrow."

Eric nodded. "Is she alright?"

"She's alright. The attacker didn't strangle her in the right place, so although he used a lot of strength, it didn't hurt any vital parts. If the attacker’s hand slid down just a little bit, I’m afraid she wouldn't have survived..."

The doctor explained and watched as Eric's face darkened completely.

Having said that, the doctor knew that it was time for him to leave.

"I’ll get going then. Call me if you need anything."

Eric nodded.

Chance climbed onto the bed and sat beside Selena. He wanted to touch her neck with his little hands, but he dared not to. His clear and pure eyes were full of distress.

"Auntie, does it hurt? I should've gone with you today. I should've protected you."

Chance choked up a little while talking.

The Divorced Billionaire Heiress Chapter 2618-Selena took Chance's hand and shook her head, but she could not speak.

She could only look at Eric, begging for help.

Eric carried Chance down from the bed.

"Go to bed. Don't disturb her rest."

Chance turned his head three times and reluctantly left while wiping away his tears.

Selena looked at Eric angrily.

She was blaming him for not having much patience with Chance.

Eric sighed, sat down, and applied the ointment to Selena's neck.

"I'm really not in the mood to think about anything else right now. I’ll apologize to him later, okay?"

Selena blinked her tender and watery eyes.

They finally found her biological father, so they could let go of all their worries.

From the initial shock and grief, Selena felt somewhat relieved now.

She felt that God treated her well.

Her grandfather saved her and sent her back to hell, but she climbed back up.

She also had her own career and this man in front of her.

What else could she complain about?

Selena was lucky.

She did not fall into the mire, and she did not let herself wallow in her misfortune.

Selena worked very hard to survive.

Eric lowered his head and carefully applied the ointment for her. He was very cautious as he was afraid that it would hurt her.

Selena's tears fell in a daze. She touched Eric's face comfortingly and could not speak, but she mouthed the words, "It’s okay. It doesn't hurt."

The corners of Eric's eyes were slightly red as he held her in his arms.

"If he gets his way, I will kill him, Selena. I will definitely kill him."

Noah did not get his way, but Eric still beat him to a pulp.

If Noah managed to kill Selena, Eric would definitely go crazy and lose control. He would make Noah pay for it with his life.

Of course, Selena believed what Eric said.

After all, she saw him beating Noah up.

Eric would not let Noah get away with it so easily.

He sent Noah to an unknown place.

Noah had hypocritically said that he wanted to cooperate with Eric and begged Eric for help.

Perhaps it was all an excuse to get close to Selena.

The closer he got to Eric, the more Selena would trust Noah.

Late at night, Selena fell asleep. Then, Eric went out.

His bodyguards were guarding a room that no one dared to approach.

Noah fainted in the cold, dark, and damp room.

They were at an old abandoned factory that had nothing to do with Ferguson Corporation.

Even if Noah were to die here, no one would suspect Eric.

Eric was well-prepared to fight to the death with Noah and retreat without leaving any evidence.

Suddenly, a bucket of cold water was poured over Noah's head, and he instantly woke up from his drowsy state due to the stress response.

Noah whimpered in pain, slowly raised his head, and looked at Eric, who was standing in the dark with an oppressive vibe.

He paused for a moment, then came to his senses. He remembered what had happened and trembled all over.

Eric stood there and lit a cigarette for himself.

The smoke lingered and scattered in the air. It dispersed until nothing could be seen.

Noah felt a bone-chilling fear which made him shudder.

Seeing his reaction, Eric chuckled.

"Mr. Stanton, is it?"

"Mr. Stanton" reminded Noah of Selena’s biological mother.

She did not even know his name.

Joel Nelson only introduced him as Mr. Stanton, so she could only address him as such.

Back then, she said, "Mr. Stanton, please have mercy.

Please let me go. Please..."

She also said, "I won’t let you get away with this! I hate you! I want you to die!"

In the end, only hysteria remained on that gentle face.

She and Selena were indeed mother and daughter. They really looked alike!

They were so similar that every time Noah saw Selena, he would subconsciously want to torture and abuse her.

He would think that Selena was her mother.

That face was so beautiful and alluring.

It was also that woman with the pitiful face that took a knife and castrated him while he was not paying attention.

Thus, Noah hated that woman.

When Eric stepped on Noah's head, Noah recalled the moment the woman stood at the window and asked him," Did you kill Joel?"

At that time, Noah relied on Stanton Corporation’s name so that no one would dare to mess with him.

Although Floyd was a well-known figure, everyone knew that he was kind and soft-hearted.

However, Noah was the exact opposite of Floyd. He was ruthless.

Stanton Corporation landed many projects because of Noah.

Floyd did not know that his younger brother would do these things, so he confidently handed over the power of the company to him.

That time was Noah’s brightest moment.

Later, because of a problem with a project, Floyd no longer trusted Noah and gradually withdrew these rights. When Stanton Corporation established a subsidiary in Jericho City, Floyd asked Noah to leave the company.

Noah clearly knew that Floyd was expelling him from the center of power.

He also agreed because he hoped to establish his own company. If he was always standing behind Floyd, who would know what he was capable of?

However, when he escaped from Floyd's control, he was in the limelight for a while.

Noah proposed for Joel to offer up his wife so that he could have fun with her for a few days.

That wimpy Joel actually refused and said that he would never continue this arrangement in the future.

Joel regretted it.

How ridiculous! It had already started, so how could he regret it?

Did Joel think that Noah would pretend that nothing ever happened just because Joel regretted it?

So, as Joel was driving back, Noah messed with Joel’s brakes.

No one knew.

Joel died, and his wife would have no support. Thus, she had no choice but to go to him.

Noah made a brilliant plan and could not be happier.

He did not care that he killed someone and did not feel the slightest fear. Instead, he found it thrilling, like an electric current passed through his body. Wherever it went, it gave off a dense stimulation.

It made him feel exhilarated.

It turned out that Noah enjoyed killing people.

Noah looked at the woman on the windowsill who wanted to threaten him with her death, smiled, and told her how he felt at that time.

The woman yelled like crazy.

Noah wanted to rape, abuse and humiliated her as usual.

She had even given birth to his child, so why was she still dissatisfied?

Somehow, she took out a knife from somewhere and ruthlessly pierced it into his lower body.

He wanted to kill her at the time.

However, before he could do so, the woman jumped off the balcony.

Splat-

Her body smashed to the ground.

The baby was crying loudly, but Noah did not seem to hear it.

Noah looked at the woman downstairs, whose brains spilled out of her head. Tsk tsk, how gory.

However, Noah was elated.

Noah left and erased all traces of his presence.

The Nelson family was clueless. Even if they had a lead, they did not dare to do anything because of what Joel did to gain the project.

They could not afford to lose their reputation.

The Divorced Billionaire Heiress Chapter 2619-Noah had lived in peace for twenty years.

The musty smell of the damp room tainted Noah's expensive suit.

Noah laughed loudly, and blood flowed out of his mouth.

It was nasty and sticky.

Noah could vaguely see the car accident from back then and smell the gasoline from the collision as well as the blood after the woman jumped off the building.

Surprisingly, it smelled the same.

"Is she dead? I'm glad she's dead..."

Noah mumbled as he grinned.

Eric looked at him with a cold gaze and kicked him, breaking several of his ribs.

Noah clutched his chest in pain. His face turned pale, and he could not utter a word.

The pain was extreme, so his body curled up. However, the sharp pain surged.

Eric's tone was cold. "Are you awake, Mr. Stanton?"

Noah coughed up a mouthful of blood.

He laughed intermittently.

"She's not dead, huh? What a pity..."

Eric saw that Noah was delirious. His eyes darkened.

"Watch him. There's no need to call a doctor. It doesn’t matter if he dies."

"Yes, sir."

There was anger in Eric's eyes.

The next day, Grant asked someone to deliver a package of things to Ferguson Corporation early in the morning.

When Eric went into the office, Mitchell handed it over.

Eric opened it and had a look.

It was the evidence of Noah's tax evasion in the company over the years, as well as evidence of Noah's illegally obtained funds and projects.

This evidence was enough to imprison Noah for 20 years.

However, the Stantons did not give it to the police but to Eric.

That was because Noah was in Eric's hands.

Once the evidence was handed over to the police, the police would definitely start to look for and arrest Noah. In that case, Eric would be in a passive situation.

However, if they handed the evidence to Eric, Eric would have the final say in what would become of Noah.

It was impossible for Noah to get away with his crimes

again.

This was the Stanton family's stance.

Eric took a look at it and asked Mitchell to put it away.

He did not want to let Noah go so soon.

However, he still had to respect the Stanton family.

As long as the Stanton family did not intervene, Eric would not implicate others.

At noon, Eric was worried about Selena, so he called home.

The servant answered the phone.

"How is Madam feeling today?"

Before the servant could speak, Selena picked up the phone.

"Mrs. Ferguson is fine today. She’s in a good mood. Don't worry and make more money, okay?"

Eric was taken aback. He smiled with his eyes.

Judging by her tone, Eric knew that Selena regained her spirits.

"You’re in a good mood? There's a bank card in the bedroom drawer. You can go shopping if you want. Someone has to spend the money I earn!"

Selena laughed. "Of course. Chance is on vacation today, so I'll take him shopping. He can help to carry my bags!"

"How much can that little boy carry? Why don’t I help you?"

Eric was also in a good mood.

Selena said, "You don't have to come. Every minute that you work is just an extra bag for me! Don't waste it."

Eric replied, 'You really know how to enjoy yourself!"

The two talked for a while, and Selena thought of something.

"Eric, don't kill him. It’s not because I don't want him to die. I just don’t want to get his dirty blood on your hands."

Eric pondered quietly for a few seconds before he said," Alright, I know."

If Eric had not captured Noah, he would not have let Selena go out with such ease.

Now, Selena could go out openly.

Selena smiled and hung up the phone.

A trace of gloom flashed across Eric’s eyes. He did not go shopping with Selena.

Noah was seriously injured, so Eric was not worried that he would run away.

Moreover, the bodyguards were all carefully selected.

More than half a month later, Noah's rib injury was almost healed.

Eric made a phone call, and the bodyguard broke Noah's ribs again.

Just like that, Eric waited until Noah recovered before he

asked his bodyguards to break Noah's ribs. This happened repeatedly until Noah's wounds would never heal.

Noah lay on the bed in pain. The room was dark.

It was very similar to the room where he imprisoned Selena’s mother.

Back then, Noah wanted stimulation and sensual pleasure.

When it was finally his turn to be locked up, he only felt waves of panic and chills.

Noah could not take it anymore.

A month later, Eric received a call from the bodyguard.

Noah confessed something that none of them knew.

Noah wanted to exchange this information for his freedom to end this dark torture.

Eric readily agreed.

Thus, a confession letter arrived on Eric's desk.

It described in detail how Noah bribed Joel's driver, tampered with Joel's car, killed Joel, and attempted to take possession of Selena's mother.

Between the lines, Noah did not admit his mistake. Instead, he calmly narrated what he had done and how he felt when he killed them.

Noah was a psychotic murderer.

Eric read it for a long time and felt suffocated.

That was how Selena came to this earth.

A flower actually bloomed from a pile of dung.

It was incredible.

Joel Nelson was useless, Selena's mother was weak, and Noah was psychotic.

Eric did not hide it from Selena. He let her read the letter before telling her about his decision.

"Just leave it to the police. Murder is bigger than personal grievances. We can’t solve this matter privately, but the police can."

Selena did not say anything and nodded in agreement.

She already knew the answer and had the result.

How she reacted did not seem to matter that much anymore.

Her biological father killed her biological mother. She was not welcomed into this world, and she did not owe anyone anything. She did not need to avenge or stand up for anyone.

Since things came to this point, the best way was to expose the forgotten past and tell the truth. They would let the judge make a decision.

The kindness she owed to her grandfather for her upbringing had been paid off.

Selena felt relaxed.

Eric quickly asked people to hand over the evidence that the Stanton family gave him to the police.

After the police filed the case, Eric asked his bodyguard to let Noah out.

Noah stumbled down the street, looking dazed and listless. He staggered forward, and the passers-by screamed.

Soon, someone called the police.

Noah was arrested by the police for a serious commercial crime.

The police also notified the Stanton family in advance. The Stanton family only said that they hoped that the police would follow the law and that they did not plan to bail Noah out. They also wanted to pursue Noah’s responsibility for the huge losses caused to the company.

The police had not begun to fully verify the incident of the commercial crime when Noah confessed to another criminal offense.

"I was the one who tampered with Joel Nelson's brakes. I wanted him to die. I did it. I forced that woman to her death. Even if she didn't jump off the building by herself, I would've killed her. Hahahaha! She deserves it. Officer, I surrendered, so will you be lenient? I can pay bail and you'll let me go, right?"

The police noticed something was wrong and immediately went to investigate a man named Joel Nelson.

All of a sudden, Joel's car accident from twenty years ago

was involved in this case.

They also discovered two major cases of Joel's wife's suicide and a series of rape that were tied to Noah.

The rest became a matter of course.

The Divorced Billionaire Heiress Chapter 2620-Convicted

Noah's commercial crime became a homicide charge.

The police's investigation expanded in another direction.

It was only during the interrogation that Noah realized that he had been fooled.

His confession was never handed over to the police.

Instead, he fell into the trap.

Noah wanted to wait for the police to come up with the "admission of guilt" so that he could deny it and tell them about Eric's illegal imprisonment of him.

However, the police did nothing of the sort.

Instead, Noah fell into the trap.

When he wanted to retract his confession, the police had already started investigating the murders.

The police also revoked Noah's privilege of surrendering when he stopped cooperating with the interrogation.

Selena handed over the diary, and the police solved the case with little effort.

The basement of Selena's parents' house was filled with evidence.

Fingerprints, bloodstains, and semen were all well preserved.

Although it had been a long time, it was not troublesome to verify.

When the police took Noah to identify the scene, Noah stood at the door of the villa with an evil smile on his face.

Selena and Eric did not go in.

They tried their best to disassociate themselves from this case and just quietly watched them from their car not far away.

Eric held Selena’s hand tightly. His eyes were dark, and he looked into the distance without any emotion.

When Eric looked down at Selena, his eyes were filled with tenderness.

Selena turned her head and looked out the window.

The gate that was covered in plants was surrounded by parked police cars.

It was the first time in twenty years that this place was so lively.

It was not lively for a good reason, but rather a conclusion to these ridiculous events.

Noah's initial reaction was normal when the police took him to identify the scene.

Noah’s expression became a little complicated when he got to the basement. There was a bit of excitement in his eyes.

However, when they went to Selena’s nursery, the innermost room upstairs, there was something wrong with Noah's expression.

The police officer stood by the window and used a ruler to measure the size of it. He pointed at the window and looked at Noah.

"Did she jump from here?"

Did Selena's mother stand here and jump off?

Noah seemed to recall that day twenty years ago. It had been so long, but his memory of that day was so vivid.

That woman was so beautiful that it made him excited every time he saw her.

She cried pitifully and looked like a goddess weeping.

When she saw Noah’s paternity test with Selena and knew that Selena was not Joel Nelson's child, she could not live anymore.

The more pitiful she looked, the more he wanted to rape her. When he touched her, she moved.

However, before he could react, the woman opened the window and jumped out.

Her back figure was as thin as a piece of paper, but when she fell to the ground, it sounded as if she weighed a thousand pounds.

His heart was also smashed to pieces at that moment.

The police officer asked him questions. In Noah's eyes, the police officer's figure overlapped with the woman in his memory.

Noah seemed to feel the sting of the cold dagger that pierced his body. His life would no longer be normal.

The anger in his chest gradually spread, and his eyes turned red

Suddenly, Noah pushed away the police officer beside him and ran toward the window.

He reached out his handcuffed hands and tried to push the woman out the window.

Noah thought, 'If she wasn't dead, she could die again!

He strangled the police officer and tried to push the officer out the window. The other officers rushed over at the same time, released Noah’s grip, and saved the officer under him.

Noah was restrained with his face pressed against the dusty floor. His breathing was unsteady, and he could feel a burst of chill from the ground spreading to his body.

His limbs and bones were shivering from the cold.

Assaulting a police officer was a serious offense. The police immediately stepped up their vigilance. After taking Noah away, calm was finally restored in the villa.

Eric could clearly see everything that happened at that window.

Noah had really gone down the path of no return.

Eric raised the car window.

Selena asked him, "Shall we go home?"

Eric smiled. "Wait a minute. Let me take you to a place."

The car arrived at the gate of the psychiatric hospital.

Eric took her to a ward at the east end of the second floor.

The doctor recognized him immediately.

"Mr. Ferguson."

"How is she doing recently?"

"She's a lot better now, and she won't make a lot of noise, but she's still restless. I saw her secretly put the medicine in the nurse's cup a few times. If the staff watching the surveillance footage did not find out in time, she would really get her way."

Jennifer was not stupid. She still had the strength to make a fuss in the first few days.

However, she changed her approach after seeing that the people in the hospital did not believe her.

Jennifer wanted to find a chance to leave, but there were more doctors and nurses than patients.

Thus, she decided to get rid of the doctors and nurses first.

Eric looked at Jennifer, who was in the ward, through the surveillance camera.

Selena also looked over and frowned slightly.

"She's been here all this time?"

Eric sneered. "You underestimate your cousin too much. She's much better than you."

Selena rolled her eyes speechlessly.

Eric's voice was clear and cold.

"After giving her a sedative, she targeted Floyd and deliberately misled us. This shows that she is mentally strong and isn’t as simple as she seems. Also, do you remember? Noah said that someone from the Nelson family told him after our wedding that you would have your revenge for all the grievances you suffered."

"I never said that."

Selena frowned. She would not say such arrogant words.

After all, she was reluctant to even get married in the first place.

Eric chuckled and squeezed her shoulder.

"Of course, I know you didn't say that, but someone told Noah that you did, and Noah believed them. Have you ever wondered why? That person from the Nelson family was guiding Noah to kill you..."

Eric said this with a smile, but there was an inexplicable chill and sharpness in his voice.

Selena's smile suddenly froze on her face.

She stared blankly at Eric.

Her initial relaxed expression disappeared in an instant. It felt like ice water was poured over her head, cooling her heart.

Selena’s attention back then was on Noah and her emotions.

Thus, she neglected some irrelevant things he said.

However, Eric noticed those irrelevant words.

The Stanton family gave Eric the surveillance footage at that time. Eric must have watched it several times before he could spot this detail that Selena overlooked.

Eric sighed. "Don’t be afraid. I didn’t dare to tell you because I was afraid it would frighten you."

Selena snorted coldly and adjusted her expression.

"I’m not afraid. I’m not even afraid of Noah anymore. Why would I be afraid of others?"

"Jennifer’s parents were the only ones in the Nelson family who would do this. Others didn't have any conflicts of interest, and they wouldn't benefit from going against you."

Eric analyzed it and paused.

"But Jennifer’s parents are different. Their company is almost bankrupt and can barely continue to operate. However, they recently received a large capital investment that brought their company back to life.
