Inside the car, Nicole could hear the
lovely and soothing sound of music that
was like a refreshing stream of water to
her ears. It was her favorite violin piece.
Serenade‘
Nicole finally felt relaxed at this moment.
She tugged at the hem of her dress in
fascination, seemingly thinking about
something.
Grant glanced to the side at his sister. ‘Lil
N, is Ian Caner pursuing you?”
He could see at a glance that there was
something fishy with Ian Carter.
Nicole paused her movements and
was startled. “Nah. he’s |us! fooling
around. He’ll be back to normal in a
couple of days.‘
Gram looked away and laughed ‘That’s
good ’
‘You don’t like him?‘
That was strange. The Stantons always
had a good relationship with the Carters.
Otherwise. they would not have allowed
Nicole to gel close to Ian and Hugh.
‘He’s had too many girlfriends, and his
private life is too messy. He’s not suitable
for you, but if you’re happy…’ Grant was a
little hesitant.
Nicole laughed, “What are you impIymg°
How can I go for my friend? Besides, I’m
not interested in men right now. I just
want to focus on my career”
Grant was visibly satisfied with this
answer. ‘Yes, men are nothing. You can
have as many as you want. Just take
Lady” Tattle Bar. Since Eric Ferguson called them out for drinks, his buddies, who were nearby. went
there as long as they could make it Inside the private room, Eric already had several empty bottles in
front of him before his friends arrived. Keith med to stop Enc, but he did not manage to and could only
watch on the side.
Colton White and the others who came later were shocked to see this scene. Eric had not looked like
this for many years. The last time he got so drunk was when Hendrick died ‘What’s going on?” Their
friends came an alarmed. ‘Why did you guys start drinking already?” A glass of cold whiskey slipped
down Eric’s throat, but his face did not change i n the slightest. He extended his hand Sit.‘ Everyone
sat down in amazement. Keith was sober and poured them all a glass. Bros should go through thick
and thin together, am I right?’ Colton looked at Keith and asked, “Bro, what happened here?” Keith
pursed his lips. ‘What else could it b e? It must be because of his stupid ex- wife…‘
However. he dared not say it out loud
Enc’s eyes darkened as waves of
emotions tumbled more. He tugged on
hrs messy shut collar and revealed his
collarbone “I was married for three years
but d|dn’t produce you guys to Nicole D
0 you guys know her?”
This name was very popular recently, so
who would not know her?
“Just because of her? Ferg, you both
aren’t of the same social status. so
divorce is just a matter of ume. Don’! be s
o sad. Speaking of which, we should even
celebrate it”
Keith was desperately trying to stop
Cotton with his eyes but to no avail.
“Yeah! She’s not on our level, so there’s n
0 need to introduce her. You don’t even
like her, so we’ve never acknowledged her
as our ‘sister-in-law’.” ‘Right. didn’t she marry you with a motive? We’ve seen gold diggers before, s o
don’t take it to heart.” ‘Look, it’s because of my acquiescence that Nicole got hurt. ‘Eric’s mood was
very complex and he felt frustrated ‘She had a motive? I can’t think of what
her motive lS.. She didn’t spend a penny 0f
what l gave her and even threw it all out
at that party when she fought with Wendy.
She didn’t want anything when she asked for a divorce and left without taking a cent. My family bullied
her like that yet she didn’t say a word and even acted like everything was fine in front of me… My
friends ignored her, yet she just shrunk into her shell quietly and didn’t even complain… What exactly
did she want then?’
The alcohol gave him a bumping sensation down his throat. Keith the blabbermouth then told everyone
what happened tonight. Colton and the others were unfazed by it and kept drinking. ‘Ferg, you’re just
soft-hearted It’s not your fault. so why are you blaming yourself?” “Yeah, she asked for it Women just
like to find trouble for themselves if she had a problem, she should’ve told you in time. If she kept it to
herself, who can help her?‘ “Who doesn’t have some conflicts at home? She can’t blame anyone for
not being able to handle your mother and sister…“ ‘Stop thinking about it. Since she wanted a divorce,
she should make a clean break
You don’t owe each other anything. so why torture yourself so much ? Don’t go looking for trouble,”
“Keith, you usually have a lot of tricks up your sleeve. why don’t dare to…. my nudes are still with
her…”
“hahahahahahahah….” Everyone drank to then heart’s content, and Enc even more so In a daze, he
remembered Nicole’s face when she looked at mm with disgust ‘S|nce she wants us to be strangers.
should I fulfill her wish?
