Lucy thought, ‘Mr. Ferguson wants to send me to the Philippines?! That’d be torture compared with my workload now! Will I still be able to come back? Did he hear what I said on the call earlier?’Her panic spread from the soles of her feet to the top of her head as she trembled.She knew very well how fond Eric was of Nicole now. Eric was also a man of his word.Lucy quickly called Quinn and pleaded in tears.In less than an hour, Quinn rushed over in a rage.She just so happened to bump into Nicole, who was planning to go out shopping.Quinn entered the door fuming. Without a second thought, she pointed at Nicole and scolded, “You vixen! You’re already divorced yet you’re still seducing my son?! We let you reconcile, but you’re pretending to be unhappy and unwilling, yet here you are now! How shameless can you be?”Nicole looked at Quinn with a cold gaze. Sure enough, Quinn was as loathsome as ever!“Mrs. Ferguson, I hope that you’ll be a bit more respectful with your words. D

Imperial Gardens.Eric’s face was pallid as he sat in the doorway, looking at the numerous people going back and forth to move Quinn into the ambulance. The noise seemed to be very distant.Was he sad?No, not really.He was just a little shocked.Eric was shocked that Quinn hated Nicole to the point of wanting to murder her.What Eric disregarded in the past had caused that hatred to fester and grow.Mitchell finished with the arrangements and turned around to see Eric sitting in his wheelchair, motionless.His face was dark, cold, and sullen.Even if Eric was injured, the coldness and ferocity that surrounded him did not diminish one bit.Mitchell pursed his lips and walked over with trepidation and worry.“President, don’t worry. The doctor said that she just lost too much blood. There’s no danger to her life.”Eric did not speak, but his dark eyes became darker. Mitchell was unable to see the depths of them.Eric slammed the armrest of the wheelchair and spoke in a dee

Within two rings, a cool and detached female voice came through. “Who is this?”“Are you Ms. Stanton? I’m Toto, the new butler in Imperial Gardens. I accidentally messed up your cosmetics when I was cleaning your room earlier. Mr. Ferguson said to throw them all away and buy new ones, but I don’t understand the words on the bottles…”Toto’s tone was quite aggrieved. Nicole’s cold and stern voice interrupted him before he could finish his sentence.“Don’t throw them away! I’ll go back right now. I’ll kill you if you dare to throw my things!”Eric, who was in the study, frowned deeply. He heard the voice outside the door loud and clear.‘That simple?!’Nicole was not short of money or luxury items. Her cosmetics were all high-end formulas specially customized according to her skin and cost seven digits. Where would they buy new ones for her?‘Those two stupid men!’Nicole forgot that she did not want to go back to Imperial Gardens. All she wanted was to rush back and check on her

Nicole sat on the balcony on the second floor, basking in the sunset with a cup of tea next to her.She squinted her eyes and felt a wave of sleepiness. She then heard deliberately lightened footsteps.Nicole frowned. “Toto?”“Ms. Stanton, you’re so smart! You already know it’s me without turning around. Your calm and cool temperament is so different from other women. I prepared some fruit for you. Was today’s dinner still satisfactory?”Toto nervously rubbed his hands with some apprehension in his voice as he continued, “Mr. Ferguson ordered those dinners. I don’t know if they’re to your taste. This is my first day on the job. I don’t want to lose this job because of the dinner. After all, I have a first-class chef license…”The corners of Nicole’s upturned lips stiffened slightly.‘Eric ordered these? I thought it was a coincidence that those are my favorite dishes… How did he know anyway?’Nicole’s heart suddenly felt a little stuffy.The more Eric put his heart into her, th

Nicole sniffed the air and asked, “What are you making?”“I made some hot chocolate with Amedei’s 70% dark chocolate. It’s so rich and smooth. You should try it!” Toto immediately recommended his creation. “Would you like a cup?”Nicole was enticed by the smell and nodded. “Is Mr. Ferguson asleep?”“Mr. Ferguson is having a meeting in the study. Sigh… A man like him who’s so hard-working and rich is truly hard to find!”Toto sighed while going back into the kitchen. He came out again with two mugs.“Luca, would you like one too?”Nicole took a sip of the hot chocolate and liked the silkiness. She looked at Luca. “Try some. Toto’s got quite the skills in the kitchen!”Luca looked so fierce and unapproachable when he turned away. “No thanks, he can have it.”Toto went over to Luca and pushed him to the table with all the strength he could muster with his 100 kg body.He was exhausted and sweating as he looked at Luca. “Don’t be so polite. I’ve already had my fair share just no
