Annoying Since Childhood
Nicole's body gradually recovered. She went to the hospital several times for a checkup, but the
doctors were really at their wits’ end with her memory loss. Her health indicators were already back to
normal, but she just could not recover her memory.
However, Nicole did not care or worry about it since it did not affect her daily life.
After a few days, Nicole and Kai attended a business party together. Nicole rarely appeared in public,
so everyone was surprised.
There were many rumors saying that Nicole was sick and could not leave the house, but her beautiful
and healthy appearance showed that she did not seem to be sick.
Nicole even looked more radiant than before.
Everyone suppressed their inner thoughts and went forward to exchange pleasantries one after
another.
“Ms. Stanton, I haven’t seen you ina long time. How have you been?”
“Ms. Stanton, I heard that you gave birth to a daughter? Is it true? When will you be hosting a party for
your child?”
“When are you coming back to the office, Ms. Stanton?”
Nicole smiled and was used to dealing with such scenes.
“In a few days, I’m hosting a 100-day banquet for my daughter. You're all invited.”
“There are still some arrangements to be made at the office, so I'm not sure when I'll be going back
yet...”
Kai became much more composed on the sidelines as he exchanged pleasantries with other peers.
He asked Nicole to rest at the lounge while he had a couple of drinks with the others to talk about
business.
Nicole gladly agreed.
She took a look around. Yvette and Julie did not come.
Nicole was a bit listless and chatted with the people next to her.
Not long after, there were suddenly two more people in front of her,a man anda woman.
“Nicole, what a coincidence to see you here!”
The man was quite tall, average- looking, and somewhat familiar. He looked like a typical parvenu.
He casually embraced a pitiful-looking and delicate girl beside him. That girl was nestled in his arms
and averted her gaze when she saw Nicole.
Nicole wrinkled her brows. She could not remember who these people were. However, she was certain
she forgot these people. Otherwise, why would she have the feeling that she had seen them before?
Nicole paused. She just smiled without saying a word so that they would not find anything odd about
her.
Anyway, she had a bad gut feeling about these people and found them quite annoying.
However, the man was very insensitive. He had to stand in front of Nicole to pester her.
“I heard that you almost died during childbirth some time ago? Is it true? People in the circle are
speculating that you're dying. That’s why you handed everything to Kai. How did you suddenly
recover?”
Nicole’s smile faded, and she sneered. “You're quite disappointed that I didn’t die, huh?”
