Eric’s face was taut. After a moment, he nodded his head in agreement. “Okay.”He unconditionally agreed with the compensation she asked for although dealing with it might be a bit troublesome.However, Eric finally felt relieved. ‘She’s willing to accept my compensation, so does that mean our relationship is still salvageable?’Nicole was not surprised by his agreement.At that moment, she stood up and walked behind her desk.“I’ll have someone work out the details with Ferguson Corporation. Let’s keep this cooperation private and confidential for now…”Eric had the same thoughts. After all, the project had just started, so it was not appropriate to be too high-profile.Looking at Nicole’s actions, she was probably about to send him out the next second.Since things between them had just started to ease up, it was better to avoid any unpleasant arguments.Eric stood up after some thought. “Then… I’ll head back…”Before he could finish his sentence, his eyes were affixed to a

Ian Carter and Old Master Carter both felt a little strange about Nicole’s sudden departure.Nicole had never been so impolite before.Under Old Master Carter’s probing eyes, Gillian finally could not hold back and told him everything, that the painting was a fake and about Chloe’s fondness for Ian.When Old Master Carter heard this, he was fuming. His daughter-in-law, Gillian, had always been well-behaved and never caused trouble. Thus, he was satisfied with her.He did not expect that Gillian would make such a mess of things.How could he not be angry?Old Master Carter asked experts in the industry to find a photo of “The Blazing Sun” that was exhibited in the World Museum, then showed it to Gillian.This painting was Mr. Wilheim’s creation at the peak of his career.Every inch of this artwork meticulously brought out the beauty and grandeur of the full painting.Therefore, after some deliberation, Mr. Wilheim decided not to add his signature to this painting. Thus, “The

Nicole thought, ‘Chloe had a crush on Ian for ten years? No wonder she’s so aggressive and resentful towards me…’She looked at Chloe’s stiff and collapsed face and felt a little sorry for her.Nicole sympathized with this woman, but she did not regret anything.She looked at Chloe seriously. “Ms. Snyder, please don’t impose your emotional failure on me. Your fruitless crush and Ian’s dislike for you aren’t caused by me. I am also not a third party who destroyed your relationship, so I’m not obligated to accept your condemnation.”It was not like whoever was most pitiful had the advantage.Nicole and Chloe were not the same.Although they both had unrequited love for someone, at least Nicole had tried to fight for it. She had anticipated to gain Eric’s love openly before. On the other hand, Chloe had never fought for Ian’s love in the past ten years.“But he likes you…” Chloe glared at Nicole.Nicole shook her head. “Ms. Snyder, can you please be more reasonable? So what if h

Nicole’s words once again made the atmosphere stagnant.Eric’s grim eyes swept over Nicole and Colton.His coldness was frightening.“Nicole, what are you trying to do?” Eric could not help but ask.Eric had already done as Nicole asked to kick out Chloe Snyder from the project and involved Stanton Corporation in it.She had said that this was the compensation.Since he had already compensated her, they no longer owed each other.Thus, he was qualified to start anew with her, right?Eric was curious why Nicole was looking for Colton White out of the blue.Nicole gently glanced to the side at Eric.Her voice was cold. “Mr. Ferguson, although we’ve cleared our past grudges, it doesn’t mean that you’re qualified to tell me what to do. Got it?”They were not even friends, so he should not pry into her affairs.Nicole’s words made Eric’s face gloomy.His eyes were dark and heavy as he stared at her.Nicole turned away insouciantly and stared at Colton.She hooked up her lips

The corners of Nicole’s lips twitched. To Nicole, it was a nightmare to hear Ingrid calling her name in that tone.If Nicole did not find out about Ingrid’s plan in advance, Nicole would have doubted her ears. Ingrid, who was in front of Nicole, kept a polite smile and the etiquette of a high-society lady.“Nicole, I have something to say to you. Can we talk alone?”Nicole raised her eyebrows and swirled the grape juice in her glass.She questioned Ingrid. “What do we have to talk about?”Ingrid paused for a moment and hung her head. “I’ve been seriously reflecting on my past behavior these days… I admit that I’ve gone overboard in the past, so I’d like to sincerely apologize to you...’Nicole just nodded with understanding and said, “Oh, okay, then just apologize here. Won’t it be more sincere in front of everyone?”Ingrid’s face stiffened.She forced a fake smile.“Um… It won’t be very appropriate. I still have some things I want to say to you in private.”Nicole hesita
