Nicole rolled her eyes, but she did not intend to fight with Eric here. She looked at Clayton.

"Wait for me. I’ll be right back." Clayton nodded. "I’ll get the car."

Nicole agreed and handed Clayton her car keys before following Eric.

Eric had just walked to the car when he turned to stare at Nicole with his dark and deep eyes.

"What gift do you want?"

Nicole’s eyes narrowed. Her tone was dull. "Where are the documents?"

"Tell me what you want first." "You lied to me?!"

Nicole sneered, then turned around and walked away.

Eric pursed his lips. The moment she left, he suddenly reached out and tugged her arm, pulling her backward and pressing her against the car.

He propped one hand behind her. His gaze was cold and sullen as he looked at her. His cool breath surrounded Nicole and was the source of the burst of chills she felt.

The driver in the car shuddered and thought, ’Should I pretend that I’m invisible?’

Nicole looked at Eric with a dull expression. Her tone was icy.

"Eric Ferguson, are you crazy?"

Eric’s jaw was tense. The suppressed emotions in his eyes unconsciously leaked out.

"I’ve been crazy for a long time, Nicole. Why are you getting so close to him again?"

Eric looked at her and reached out to touch her face, but Nicole dodged it with a tilt of her head.

He lowered his eyes and hid his disappointment. His fingers caressed her earlobe and gently pinched it.

Eric let out a light laugh next to her ear. His voice was magnetic, mellow, and seductive, but with a burst of coldness.

"It’s not just today’s bid. If he doesn’t know how to cut his losses in time, I can sooner or later make him lose all his power abroad."

Nicole suddenly raised her eyes and looked at him. Eric’s stern and paranoid face did not look like he was joking.

Eric saw her surprised look and thought that she was very cute. His heart was slightly moved.

He lowered his head and wanted to kiss her.

Nicole subconsciously wanted to turn away, but a large hand tightly pinched her chin.

The next second, his cool lips covered hers with an unquestionable ruthlessness. A faint minty flavor put her in a trance for a moment. This was the taste of Eric’s aggressiveness.

Nicole suddenly felt a chill throughout her body as she shivered slightly. She looked at him as if she was not the one involved.

Eric’s eyes were bloodshot as he stared at her. The corners of his eyes were slightly red.

He was angry and more upset.

However, he could not tell her that he was sad, so he wanted to punish her in this intimate way to show her his dissatisfaction and distress.

Eric saw Nicole’s calm eyes and felt his heart shrinking fiercely. Nicole was not angry or sad.

She just looked at him like he was a stranger. Suddenly, Eric bit her hard on the lips.

Nicole’s eyebrows knitted up. She shuddered in pain and slapped him.

"Slap—"

Eric’s face had five distinct fingerprints. It was quite wonderful.

The atmosphere was stagnant.

He hissed as his eyes sank, but he soon flashed a light and loose smile.

He touched her lips that he bit with his long fingers. Her light lipstick instantly became a bright red, which made her already delicate skin look even fairer.

Nicole kept an aloof, high, and mighty temperament. Her eyes were cold as she glared at him.

She looked furious.

On the contrary, Eric was extraordinarily happy, as if his gloomy mood from the auction earlier was swept away.

A kiss for a slap, fair and square.

Eric looked at the wound on her lips and started to feel heartbroken.

"Does it hurt?" He asked in a low, hoarse voice.

Nicole saw how Eric’s mood changed from being angry, sad, and now sympathetic. ’Why didn’t I realize before how much this son of a b”tch can act?’

She laughed in exasperation. It was cold as hell. “It doesn’t hurt. Why don’t you bite yourself?” Although Eric was scolded, he was evenhappier.

He came closer to her and said in a deep and cold voice, “

You can bite me.”

Eric’s irritating face was right in front of Nicole’s eyes. Nicole looked at it with cold eyes and was not polite.

When Eric let down his guard, Nicole lifted her leg and kicked him fiercely.

Eric’s leg with the old injury trembled violently, which made him take two steps backwards. He looked at her in shock.

She really kicked him hard!

Nicole’s gaze was icy cold. He was finally a safe range away from her, which was reassuring.

She reached out and touched her lips with her slender fingers. She wiped away the blood in a swift motion and made it seem like those traces never existed at all.

Her gaze landed on him without the slightest heartache or guilt. Instead, she sneered.

"Are you a dog? Eric Ferguson, if this happens again, I’ll cripple your leg."

Her tone was extremely cold. She was not joking. Eric’s eyes flinched.

He used this tone when he was lecturing others, but now, Nicole used it to lecture him.

Nicole was not bothered to glance at him and turned to leave as she wiped her lips in disgust.

Eric held his injured leg and smiled coldly. "Are you scared to be seen by Clayton?"

Nicole paused for a moment, then left without the slightest hesitation.

Eric narrowed his eyes. A hostility rose fiercely in his eyes.

Eric’s driver finally stopped playing dead and stumbled out of the car to help Eric.

He saw everything that happened from the inside of the car and thought, ’Ms. Stanton is really brutal!’

"Mr. Ferguson, are you alright? I’ll contact the doctor to wait at home..."

Eric’s eyebrows converged. He waved away the driver’s hand and went into the car.

There was still a long time to come. Eric did not believe that Clayton would marry Nicole so soon.

"Contact Mitchell. Tell him to investigate who bought the black pearl and buy it back."

The driver nodded. "Yes, sir."

No matter how he looked at it, he felt that such a beautiful black pearl necklace should be worn by Nicole.

Only she was worthy.

Nicole got into the car with a cold frown. Clayton, who was the driver, turned to look at her.

Suddenly, he saw that her complexion was off. Her lips were more gaudy than before and somewhat swollen.

He was stunned for a moment. However, he quickly regained a gentle and warm gaze as if nothing happened.

Clayton smiled and asked, "You didn’t get the documents back?"

Nicole froze and saw her two empty hands. ’What buIIsh*t document! I will never trust that son of a b”tch again!’

"No."

Clayton smiled and started the car. "It seems that Mr. Ferguson is jealous."

Nicole raised her eyebrows and laughed coldIy. "He’s just crazy!"

After a while, Nicole asked him, "Didn’t you want that bidding contract?"

Clayton smiled gently without any emotion.

He seemed to anticipate that she would ask this. "Yes, but it’s not a must-have."

Nicole paused and thought of Eric’s warning words earlier. "If you need it, I can get it back for you."

Clayton’s smile deepened as his voice unconsciously turned gentle.

"No need. Even if I get that contract, I currently don’t have the time or heart to care about it. I still have to go to Liberty after the New Year because there’s some trouble there."

Nicole’s chest sank slightly and subconsciously associated it with Eric.

"Is it a big problem?"

"It’s a small problem. A few friends wanted to disband, so we gotta divide the assets properly..."

Nicole nodded and breathed a sigh of relief. ’That’s good...’ They arrived at the Stanton Mansion.

The butler had already decorated the Stanton Mansion inside and outside in a cheerful manner. Kai took Lil Michael to the swing in the yard.

Floyd was standing at the entrance, talking on the phone in a very loud voice as he contacted some relatives to come over for the New Year.

As soon as Clayton and Nicole got out of the car, Lil Michael’s eyes lit up. He ran over and left Kai behind.

”Daddy...”

Clayton’s heart felt warm. He immediately squatted down, intending to carry Lil Michael and spin the boy around.

However, Lil Michael changed his direction and jumped into Nicole’s arms.

"Pretty Lady! I miss you so much! I haven’t seen you since last night...”

His father, who he had not seen in half a month, was speechless.

Nicole carried Lil Michael for a while and spun him around. She ran out of strength, so she put him down and stroked his soft curly hair.

"Lil Michael, go say hello to Daddy."

Lil Michael nodded obediently and went to Clayton, then cupped his father’s face and planted a big kiss on his cheek.

"Daddy, I miss you so much..."

The boy’s tone was so perfunctory!

Clayton’s smile looked like he was trying to cope with it. He had a feeling that he raised an ingrate.

"Although I don’t quite believe it, since it’s the New Year, I forgive you."

He reached out and pinched Lil Michael’s cheeks as he laughed.

Lil Michael bounced around and went back to Nicole’s

side, taking her soft, pretty hand as he squinted his eyes. "Pretty Lady, I prepared a gift for you! It’ll come soon..." Nicole blinked. "I have a gift for you too!"

Floyd hung up the phone and stood there as he beckoned to them. "Come on in! Don’t let Lil Michael catch a cold!"

The forgotten Nicole was speechless.

Kai ran over gleefully. "Haha! You’re out of favor!" Nicole rolled her eyes. "Sour grapes!"

Kai froze and felt like beating his sister up.

They walked over. Clayton greeted Floyd politely, to which Floyd nodded in response. Floyd swept a glance at Nicole’s face and stopped for a moment.

"Lil N, what happened to your lip?"

Originally, everyone did not notice it, but when Floyd mentioned it, everyone looked over.

Nicole unnaturally pursed her lips and glared at Kai, who was smirking.

"I accidentally bumped into something."

Kai smiled playfully. His gaze swept over Clayton, who came over with Nicole.

"This excuse is a bit far-fetched, right?"

Floyd’s face was cold as he kicked Kai. "You dare to talk to your sister like that?!"

Kai raised his hands in surrender and smiled humbly. "Dad, I was wrong!"

Nicole snorted coldly and walked inside.

In her heart, she cursed Eric Ferguson a million times.

Floyd looked at Clayton with a complicated gaze that was clearly not as amiable as just now.

Clayton only lowered his head and said nothing.

Lil Michael puffed up his cheeks in anger as he looked at Clayton with disdain.

"Daddy, I won’t forgive you if you bully Pretty Lady!"

Clayton was dumbstruck and looked at him. "Do you still know your last name?!"

Lil Michael snorted arrogantly. "I will uphold justice regardless of blood relations!"

The butler welcomed everyone inside. He keenly noticed that the corners of Nicole’s lips were bruised, but looking a t Nicole’s face, he did not dare to ask anything more.

"Miss, what would you like to eat?"

Nicole said, "No need, I’ll just have a cup of coffee."

"Okay."

The butler politely went to ask Clayton, "What would you like to drink, Mr. Sloan?"

’the same, thanks."

The butler did not need to ask Floyd and Kai since they had been eating and drinking at home all day.

Floyd coughed and looked at Clayton.

"Mr. Sloan, did you come to pick up Michael?"

Clayton pursed his lips and nodded. "Yes, according to custom, we shouldn’t disturb you for New Year’s Eve."

Lil Michael’s features were scrunched up as he was nervous.

He did not want to leave.

This was the first New Year’s Eve with his pretty lady, so he wanted to countdown with her.

Floyd looked at Lil Michael longingly. In fact, he wanted Lil Michael to stay.

However, if the boy stayed back, Clayton must also stay.

Their relatives would come over in a moment, so if another man and child counted down to the New Year with them, gossip would certainly spread.

It would not be good for Nicole.

Just when Floyd was torn, Clayton’s phone rang. Clayton’s expression changed when he saw the number.

Clayton stood up, excused himself, and walked out to answer the phone.

Floyd looked at Nicole with difficulty.

Nicole’s expression was light. She could not see what Floyd was thinking because her mind was not there.

Kai also did not know about Floyd’s dilemma.

In less than half a minute, Clayton walked in with a gentle face and waved toward Lil Michael.

"Susan wants to talk to you. Come and take this call." Susan was Lil Michael’s maid.

Lil Michael frowned as he went over. ’Why didn’t Susan contact me directly?’

He looked at his empty wrist. ’Oh, right... My watch just fell into the swimming pool!’

The boy followed Clayton out the door.

When he reached out to take the phone, Clayton did not give it to him. Instead, Clayton’s smile somewhat faded.

"Just now, there’s a foreign transaction that came from you that’s $880 million. What did you buy?"

Lil Michael lazily squinted his eyes. "Daddy, you tricked me to come out just to say this?"

Clayton glared at him. "Isn’t this amount worth asking?" Lil Michael replied, "I just bought a New Year’s gift."

Clayton asked dubiously, "For me?"

The boy smiled slyly. "Daddy, what do you think?" Obviously not!

Clayton looked at his son, speechless. "It’s for Pretty Lady, of course!"

When Clayton heard that it was for Nicole, his face instantly softened.

"What did you buy?"

Lil Michael’s eyes rolled around playfully. "A black pearl necklace!"

Clayton’s face stiffened.

"So, you’re the mysterious big shot?!" 8880 million for a black pearl necklace.

Everything matched up. It was such a coincidence!

That black pearl necklace that gained all the attention at the auction was finally auctioned off by the mysterious big shot from abroad.

Even Eric did not continue to compete with the bidding.

Clayton did not expect that the mysterious big shot would turn out to be his son.

Lil Michael looked at his father in confusion. "What mysterious big shot? I’m a big shot just by buying a necklace?"

Clayton’s expression suddenly became complicated. For a moment, he did not know what to say.

Even he, as a father, lost to Lil Michael completely.

’Taking my money to please a girl... What a good son, huh?’

However, thinking that it was for Nicole, Clayton had nothing to say.

He had intended to give this to her in the first place, but his son got to it first.

Clayton was speechless.

After a while, Clayton’s mood eased.

"Daddy can’t stay here for the New Year because I need to go to Liberty later. Do you wanna come with me or stay here?"

"Of course I’m staying!"

Lil Michael spoke decisively.

Clayton should have known the answer, but he only humiliated himself by asking this question.

He pursed his lips and walked in again, then shamelessly asked the Stantons to take in his heartless little ungrateful Son.

Floyd heard this and thought that it was just to his liking.

"No problem! You can let him stay in our house without worry. We’ll definitely take good care of him!"

Floyd almost raised his hand and swore.

Clayton smiled gently. "Then sorry to trouble you, Chairman Stanton."

He looked at Nicole with tender eyes. "I’ll see you after the New Year."

Nicole nodded. "See you next year!"

Originally, Nicole was wondering what kind of urgent matters he had that he needed to leave at this time.

However, Nicole looked at the blonde-haired boy and suddenly realized that Cla on raised Lil Michael overseas, so the New Year was not that big of an occasion as it was in Mediania.

To Clayton and Lil Michael, the New Year was probably just a normal day.

Lil Michael joyfully sat next to his pretty lady and waved at Clayton.

“See you after the New Year, Daddy!” Hehe...

Clayton smiled and looked at Nicole hesitantly, wanting to say something.

Nicole saw this and stood up, then casually took a shawl and draped it over her body.

"I’ll walk you out."

The two went to the door and handed him the car keys. Clayton was stunned and shook his head with a smile.

"My driver will pick me up soon. I just want to talk to you alone."

Nicole paused for a moment and raised her eyes to look at him. This man was most attractive when he smiled gently, as if the whole world could shine brightly because of it.

She pursed her lips and said in a calm voice, "What do you wanna say?"

Clayton smiled with his eyes. "Nicole, can I call you by your first name?"

Nicole frowned and thought, ’I never said that he can’t call me Nicole...’

"It’s up to you."

It was just a name anyway.

Without her jacket and only a shawl, she looked so warm.

This warmth made her look softer, and her eyes were relaxed like a girl next door, not the strong and influential woman she was in the industry.

This contrast made Clayton feel a little heartbroken.

He bowed his head and chuckled, "Always calling you Ms. Stanton makes me feel like I’m making no progress and that we’re not close."

Unconsciously, he told her what was in his heart.

Nicole wrinkled her eyebrows. "We’re not very close anyway

She remembered that she had made her stance extremely clear and did not lead him on.

"We’re already friends, right?" Clayton did not know whether to cry or laugh.

Nicole nodded. She misunderstood him. "Then you can call me by my name."

The corner of Clayton’s lips curled up into a gentle arc. He playfully said her name, "Nicole."

Nicole raised her eyes to look at him and felt that he was being a little weird today, but she could not pinpoint it.

His eyes were bright, gentle, and modest, and reflected Nicole’s figure.

At this moment, a trace of strange emotions crossed his eyes.

When Nicole was exploring what it might be, Clayton took a step forward and hugged her. His broad shoulders and warm embrace stunned Nicole.

After she came to her senses, she frowned and intended to reach out and push him away, but Clayton had already let g o of her.

Nicole’s gaze grew cold because Clayton was overstepping his bounds.

"Mr. Sloan..."

Clayton curled his lips into a bitter and astringent smile.

"I’m sorry. I just feel really dejected that I’m not qualified to intervene even after Eric Ferguson treated you that way. I admit that I was overwhelmed by jealousy, so you can hit and scold me if you want."

After crossing the line, Clayton had the grace to admit his mistake like a gentleman.

Clayton would never take something by force or deception.

Nicole wrinkled her eyebrows and was a little dumbfounded. For a moment, she did not know what to say.

Eric was certainly hateful, but seeing Clayton like this, Nicole did not know how to respond.

If she kept rejecting him, it would hurt his feelings, especially since they were inextricably linked with a partnership involving all sorts of interests.

Looking at her torn expression, Clayton smiled and reached out to touch her hair, moving gently.

"I’m just making an excuse for my misconduct. Don’t get too tangled up."

Nicole breathed a sigh of relief and raised her eyes to look at him. "Mr. Sloan, don’t make such jokes in the future."

Such tenderness was too easy to indulge in, and she did not need pampering right now.

Clayton raised an eyebrow and did not answer her words. Instead, he changed the topic.

"If you don’t wanna hit or scold me, I’ll get going."

He turned his head to the side and saw that his driver had arrived at the entrance of the Stanton Mansion.

Nicole naturally saw it too. “Have a good trip.”

Nicole waved without hesitation and flashed a perfunctory and polite smile.

Clayton laughed. ’She also wants me to hurry up and leave like Lil Michael?’

Looking at her, Clayton’s heart: felt tickled.

Once again, he went up, cupped her face, and planted a light kiss on her bare white forehead.

Nicole felt like a feather brushed over her heart. It was gentle and restrained, but with a surging and rich love.

Clayton was happy yet careful.

Nicole was stunned for a moment as she did not seem to expect Clayton to make such a quick comeback again.

However, his kiss carried a light scent of fresh grass that she could not help but indulge in.

In less than a second, Clayton took a step back. The intense love in his eyes was suppressed and restrained.

His eyes were light as he held a faint smile. His voice was warm and clear, like a spring breeze brushing through her heart.

"Nicole, do you know how to completely forget a person?"

Nicole’s body was tense. Her face was slightly cold, and her obsidian eyes were dark and heavy.

She did not want to indulge in the warm embrace of a man she did not know too well.

Thus, her tone carried a warning and detachment. "Mr. Sloan..."

Clayton interrupted her. His eyebrows were sunken. "It’s to fall in love with another person."

He told her the answer straightforwardly.

Nicole’s heart trembled fiercely, as if her unseen emotions that were suppressed at the bottom of her heart were crushed into dust.

Clayton could see it clearly.

Nicole’s feelings for Eric were so complex that even she did not know exactly what it was.

She used to love Eric so deeply like a moth to a flame.

Even though her heart was ashen, Eric saved her time and time again, and his words of remorse and love still felt like rocks smashing into her heart.

Eric once again barged into her world without question, wanting to redeem himself and apologize.

Nicole heard it, but she dared not and could not respond.

She struggled and hesitated, but in the end, her resentment still took the upper hand.

How could she let herself become a joke?

The pain Eric brought her was enough to sober her up for life.

One would be lucky to meet and have love in their life, but without love, it was not necessarily unfortunate.

Therefore, Nicole did not want to have expectations of anyone anymore, including Clayton.

At that moment, Clayton saw Nicole’s struggle. The more she tried to forget Eric, the more Eric’s strength became omnipresent.

Nicole’s heart was beating violently. Her expression became glum and disheartened.

"Fall in love with another person? Who? You, Mr. Sloan?" Clayton hesitated for half a second. "It’s not impossible." He would love that.

Clayton was like warm water that seeped into her life, wanting to surround her.

Nicole let out a light laugh with a chill in her eyes.

"I won’t waste my time on men, like an investment with no prospects that can be listed if I’m lucky. If not, it’s just bad luck."

Her words were so blunt. Nicole was very rational. Emotions and love were troublesome.

Thus, Nicole simply refused.

Clayton’s eyes flickered as he took a step forward.

Nicole subconsciously frowned and stepped back to avoid another surprise attack from him.

Clayton’s eyes had a slight disappointment. He curled his lips and said in a hoarse voice, "Nicole, I have prospects. You won’t lose out if you invest in me."

In the end, Nicole had no confidence in him because she had no sense of security.

Only the Stanton family was her biggest support.

Nicole’s eyebrows quivered abruptly, but she quickly regained her composure.

"Goodbye, Mr. Sloan."

She did not want to continue this conversation. Clayton raised his eyebrows and took a step back. His eyes were gentle and doting. "Goodbye, Nicole." ’Goodbye, my Ms. Stanton.’

From the time she rejected Eric, Clayton was confident that he could win her over.

Read Chapter 667 of The Divorced Billionaire Heiress-By I Wanna Eat Meat

Clayton was pervasive in Nicole’s life, like warm water that soaked through her and gradually became indispensable, which was the best way for him to win her over.

He also did not know how he became so attached to a woman.

It was probably because his love for her was overwhelming.

Therefore, no matter what evil tricks Eric threw at him, Clayton would not let go of Nicole.

As soon as Clayton left, Nicole stood in the cold wind for a moment before heading back inside.

Everyone was once again immersed in the lively atmosphere.

Floyd even rolled up his sleeves and went into the kitchen himself, preparing the ingredients with Lil Michael while the butler helped out with a smile.

As soon as Nicole entered, Kai shoved an apron to her and winked at her.

Nicole then followed him into the kitchen.

Kai did not really expect Nicole to work. He was busy making dessert while Nicole just stood there with her arms wrapped around her, watching quietly.

He chuckled. "Lil N, what did Clayton say to you outside?"

Nicole pursed her lips. When she recalled that hug and kiss just now, her face blushed unconsciously.

"What does it have to do with you?"

"I’m warning you. Although Dad likes Lil Michael, it doesn’t mean that he likes Lil Michael’s daddy. If the heiress of Stanton Corporation marries an old man with a child, what will happen to our reputation?"

Nicole snorted and frowned. "What does my marriage have to do with your reputation? It’s none of your business who I want to marry."

"Fine, fine... I’m being superficial. True love is invaluable..." Kai looked like he wanted to gag.

Nicole pursed her lips. "Nothing’s going on between us, so don’t talk nonsense."

She wanted to clarify her relationship with Clayton.

Kai paused in his movements. "It’s New Year’s Eve. Shouldn’t you pay respects to your friends?"

Nicole laughed when she heard that.

’Friends? Or Julie? I guess that’s Kai’s real purpose?’

"K, if you miss Julie, just say it. Since it‘s New Year, you can pay her a visit."

Kai frowned and put down the things in his hand. He solemnly condemned her.

"How can you not do anything when you took my money? That’s too unfair! She has no one at home, so she must be so lonely for New Year’s. As her friend, you should take the initiative to invite her here for New Year’s!"

Nicole was moved by his words. Although Kai looked calm on the surface even after not contacting Julie for a few days, his heart was going crazy.

She took Kai’s black card to spend lavishly, but she forgot about Kai’s misery.

At once, Nicole felt a little guilty.

"But... What if she wants to spend New Year’s Eve with

Roman?"

Julie had a boyfriend, so she would certainly want to spend New Year’s Eve with her boyfriend.

Kai glared at Nicole fiercely. She just had to stab him in the heart. What was the use of having this sister?

He looked at her disappointingly and angrily.

"I’ve checked. Roman went abroad for a fashion show, so Julie is left alone here."

’Nicole really didn’t care about her friend!’ Kai thought.

Nicole smiled shyly and hurriedly took out her phone. "I’ll ask her. Don’t worry, I’ll definitely pick her up."

The call was answered.

Nicole went straight to the point. "Jules, come to my house for New Year‘s Eve!"

Julie said, "No, thanks. I plan to go on vacation abroad." Nicole sighed.

"Jules, don’t lie to me. The first day of the year is your mother’s death anniversary, so you won’t go abroad. We have some relatives coming over in a while, so you’re not the only one. I’ll go pick you up!"

Julie was silent. "Okay, I’ll go by myself. You don’t have to come."

Nicole hung up the phone and took a deep breath.

In the past few years, Julie would spend the New Year with her grandmother. When her grandmother passed away, she was left alone.

Floyd would often ask Nicole to call Julie over for the holidays in the past, but ever since Julie and Kai broke up, Julie never came over again.

It seemed that her relationship with Kai had been a thorn in her heart.

Kai ran over with a jolt and looked at Nicole with a sweet smile on his face.

“Lil N, did she say yes?”

Nicole rolled her eyes at Kai. "She’s coming soon."

Kai regained his spirits and was even more excited to get back to the kitchen work.

Tigger was draped in an expensive Gucci silk scarf, and it had a valuable watch that Kai no longer wanted on one of its legs. The little tiger made its rounds throughout the Stanton Mansion with a big grin on its face.

Hearing Floyd’s bold and spirited laughter outside, Nicole was shocked for a moment and went out to see what was going on.

It turned out that her second brother, Maverick, had returned.

Not just him, but also Molly Stewart.

The two of them came inside hand in hand and were obviously in a good relationship. Nicole clicked her tongue.

"I always thought that Maverick would be single for life! Now, he’s the first among us to get into a relationship?"

Kai wiped his hands and came out. Seeing this scene, he also felt a sizable blow.

Floyd told everyone to come out and greet them at the door.

Nicole and Kai looked at each other and hurried Iy stood there obediently. Even Grant, who was working in the study, was called over.

Tigger stood at Nicole’s feet, wagging its tail, and looked up at Molly Stewart. "Mean Molly!"

Molly glared at the tiger, then put on a bright smile and bowed. "Hello, Uncle Floyd. Hello, Big Brother. Hello, Third Brother. Hello, Nikki!"

’Is this the official meeting of the family? Maverick’s speed and progress were surprisingly fast!’

Maverick stood on the side and pushed up his glasses. His svelte and calm temperament appeared to be a lot softer.

"Let me introduce you to my girlfriend, Molly Stewart. If you don’t have any objections, we intend to get married next year. Even if you do, it doesn’t matter."

Molly stood shyly to the side, a little embarrassed by Maverick’s words.

Floyd, Grant, Kai, and Nicole stood there, dumbfounded.

Soon, Floyd reacted and welcomed them into the house with a smile.

Floyd was an old fox, so how could he not know about Molly Stewart’s background?

Out of vigilance over Nicole’s failed past marriage, Floyd was extremely wary about whoever approached his children.

Floyd felt at ease and approved of Molly Stewart, who was most often seen around Maverick.

Although Molly’s family background was not comparable t o the Stanton family, Floyd did not intend to put his son through a marriage of convenience.

All that mattered was a clean and ordinary background.

Moreover, Floyd also heard that Molly was a famous female scientist in the physics world and a revered academic.

Floyd suddenly felt relieved.

"Molly, from now on, we’re a family, so don’t be polite with us!"

Molly did not expect that such a wealthy family like the Stanton family would have such good-tempered people.

She was most familiar with Nicole among the Stantons.

Nicole smiled happily and asked the butler to serve coffee and snacks.

Everyone sat down. Grant’s aura was cold, solemn, and authoritative. He looked like a boss scrutinizing his subordinates without a smile on his face.

This made Molly a little nervous and restrained.

Kai was smiling like Nicole, only his smile carried a bit of envy and jealousy.

"Molly, we’ll visit your parents later and finalize the marriage as soon as possible."

Floyd lovingly sat at the head of the table. Seeing Molly’s restraint, he pointed at Grant and reassured her.

"Don’t be afraid of him. He just has a few stinking dollars.. "

Grant was dumbstruck.

No matter how excellent and imposing Grant was outside, he still had to be obedient at home.

Floyd then pointed at Kai. "He only looks average. All looks and no substance."

Kai was shocked and looked at his father, perplexed. ’How can you say that about your son?!’

Floyd pointed to Nicole next.

"My daughter is fine. She’s beautiful and good-tempered. Except for her obsession to spend money, she has no other bad habits.”

Nicole’s face was stiff. ’No way... In order to promote Maverick,  Dad  is  putting all of us down in comparison?!’

Floyd sighed and said, "Maverick is my pride. Molly, you’re able to choose him out of so many people, which means that your vision and taste is really one of a kind!"

Everyone’s smile was complicated.

Maverick could not hold onto his smile any longer. The corners of his lips twitched a little. "Dad, I’ve already introduced them to Molly."

Floyd grinned from ear to ear. "That’s good. Don’t be a stranger here, Molly. We can’t let Molly down. After the New Year, we’ll definitely hold a luxurious and grand wedding!"

Molly forced a smile and looked at Floyd in a daze. "Uh... It doesn’t have to be so soon..."

She did not expect that the threshold to marry into an affluent family to be so low.

’Why do I feel panicky?’ Molly thought.

Maverick glanced at Molly and said with a smile, "We’re both busy with work, so of course, the faster the better."

Molly nodded in a daze.

Floyd looked very satisfied. He originally thought that Maverick would stay single for the rest of his life and never thought that there was such an excellent girl willing to marry him.

Thus, they should get married as soon as possible, the sooner the better!

Soon, many relatives arrived one after another.

Since their second uncle, Noah Stanton, experienced that blow from Lydia and Jade Smith, he could not lift his head and even lost his career. He was wasting his life away for a long period of time.

Floyd could not bear to see his brother like this and could not sit idIy by, so Floyd bought some stocks for Noah and used the dividends to fund Noah’s travel around the world t o relax his mind.

After Noah returned this time, his face obviously regained his spirits and glow.

Floyd stood up to greet the others, then glanced at Nicole and Maverick. "Lil N, take care of Molly..."

He still felt more at ease with his daughter.

Otherwise, with Grant’s aura, he would frighten off Molly, and Kai would only wreak havoc.

Two of his sons were not very reliable.

Nicole nodded heavily and sat down next to Molly.

"Molly, how did you fall for my second brother?"

Molly shyly lowered her head and looked at Maverick from time to time. The affection in her eyes was oozing out, which made them a little jealous.

"The Great God is so excellent. It’s my good luck that he fell for me..."

Nicole frowned in surprise.

Maverick glanced at Nicole and raised his eyebrows. "Lil N, you have some credit in this."

After all, Maverick was very annoyed with Molly at the beginning. In his opinion, everyone who was less intelligent

than him was incorrigible.

After Maverick pointed out Molly’s mistakes a few times, she was surprisingly enlightened. He thought that she was still quite smart.

Floyd called Maverick, who stood up and followed him outside.

Grant’s phone had not stopped ringing while he was at home. He picked up the call and went to the study.

Kai went over and pulled Nicole, expressing his dissatisfaction in a low voice.

"Look, Mav is getting married soon! You took my black card and have the cheek to watch me end up single for the rest of my life?"

Nicole curled the corners of her lips and pulled her arm out of Kai’s hand, then waved toward the door.

"Jules!"

Kai immediately let go of Nicole and resumed his image of a cool and arrogant Greek god.

Nicole dragged Molly with her and ran away, fleeing from Kai’s interrogation.

Kai saw that he was fooled and speechlessly rolled his eyes. ’I bet she’s not my real sister!’

Nicole took Molly to the garden. Molly was interested in everything and was not so restrained with Nicole. She was much more casual and comfortable.

"Nikki, I thought that your family won’t accept me so easily. After all, my family’s not rich, and affluent families always have more rules. Before coming, I thought that your father would throw me a check and ask me to get lost!"

Nicole could not help but laugh a little.

"You think too much! Everyone in our family adores you, especially my second brother!"

Speaking of Maverick, Molly sighed and tilted her head with her hands together.

"I never dreamed that I'd get to marry my idol! I’ll really wake up from laughing in my dreams..."

Molly’s smile was full of joy.

The sun was shining today. Although it was cold, it was still radiant and dazzling.

Nicole curled the corners of her lips. "My second brother is the most uncontested person in our family, but he’s very busy. If you feel bored, you can come to me. We can go shopping and travel together!"

She implied that Molly should not break up with Maverick just because he was such a busy person.

Molly nodded heavily and rubbed her hands. "Um... Is Maverick rich?"

Nicole was speechless.

After three seconds of silence, Nicole hurriedly nodded.

"Yes, he is. He has dividends from Stanton Corporation’s shares, his bonus, and various financial investments. The liquid assets in his name add up to quite a big sum."

Even if it was just for money, they must keep Molly at all costs.

Molly flung her legs as she sat on the swing and laughed.

She sighed. "Then I’m relieved..."

Nicole laughed and was silent for a moment as she did not know what to say.

A set of footsteps came from behind, and Maverick’s voice followed. "What a realistic woman!"

Molly stiffened and hurriedly stood up, like a child who had done something wrong.

"G-Great God!"

Maverick stared at her and narrowed his eyes. "If I’m not rich, will you break up with me?"

"No, of course not!" Molly immediately denied it. "All the more reason not to break up with you if you’re rich!"

Maverick snickered, but he was not angry.

He stretched out his hand, so Molly hurried Iy went over and held it.

Maverick looked at Nicole. "Lil N, I’ll take Molly to meet the others. Your friend is here, so you should go over."

’Is Julie here?’

Nicole nodded, lifted her skirt, and ran over. Julie had a powerful and confident aura.

She wore a limited-edition coat from Milan and had an excellent temperament. Her smile was warm as she greeted Floyd.

Floyd saw Julie as his daughter and let her hang around as she pleased.

Nicole ran over and jumped into Julie’s arms. "Jules! Why’d you get here so late?"

Julie laughed helplessly. "I got here as fast as I could..."

Kai, who was behind Nicole, coughed speechlessly and peeled Nicole away from Julie.

"Lil N, do you not know how heavy you are?!"

Hearing this, Nicole decided to disown her third brother!

Nicole turned to ask Julie, "When will your boyfriend come back?"

She purposely poked at Kai’s heart. Kai’s face changed.

Julie looked at the two siblings and laughed. "Probably two or three months. He recently took on a lot of runway invitations, so it’s a great opportunity for his career."

Nicole frowned. In the past, Roman was famous in the circle, but he was not to the level of gaining global attention.

This time, he seemed to be so viral. All of a sudden, his net worth soared and he booked major shows non-stop. Even the media began to notice Roman, an international supermodel.

Roman only booked those shows from Julie’s contacts. It seemed that in order to promote Roman, Julie spared no effort.

"Let‘s go inside to talk. I’ll make you coffee." Kai gritted his teeth and stared at Nicole.

What an annoying sister!

Nicole and Julie walked in together and went to the small balcony on the second floor. They sat down and watched a s Floyd greeted the guests with a smile on his face.

Kai was not far away grinding coffee. From time to time, he would pay attention to the ladies’ movements.

Nicole pursed her lips. “Is Roman reliable?”
