Chapter 117 I’m Not That Generous

Old Master Ferguson’s face was glum as he

narrowed his eyes and grunted coldly. He

was so exasperated looking at this father’s

daughter pair that he gnashed his teeth and

said, ‘Chairman Stanton, what else do you

have in store? I’ve already seen enough of

this surprising show’”

It was clear that the Stantons were

deliberately telling off the Fergusons with

everything that happened at the gala.

‘No wonder Nicole was so fearless when I

complained about her to Floyd Stanton in

her office that day. Now that I think back to

it, she deliberately played me!’ Old Master

Ferguson thought.

Floyd Stanton glanced at Eric Ferguson,

who still did not show a hint of emotion on

his noble and calm face. At such a young

age, he managed to be so unperturbed by all

that happened, which was a rare talent.

If not for Eric’s messy love life and for him

hurting Nicole so many times that made

Floyd Stanton keep a distance from him,

Floyd would probably be able to accept such

a man as his son-in-law.

“Chairman Ferguson, I can’t understand

where your anger is coming from. My

princess married your grandson just to

become a lowly maid to your family. Even

after their divorce, she became the most

hated person on the internet getting

insulted left and right.

Chairman Ferguson,

don’t you think you owe us an explanation?”

Floyd Stanton’s voice was cold.

Old Master Ferguson froze. Quinn and

Ingrid were also shocked. ‘Is Floyd Stanton

bringing Nicole over to settle accounts?’

Eric had a slight frown and his eyes were

deep as he looked at Nicole, who was next to

Floyd.

She was staring at the royal blue sapphire

cufflinks on Floyd’s shirt and was tugging

on her father’s suit like she was extremely

bored. She seemed reluctant to come over

and was not even willing to look at them for

a moment.

Since the second she stepped on stage, Eric

was beyond shocked.

It was just that he hid it all at the bottom of

his heart. All the unbelievable things that

Nicole did after their divorce finally seemed

to make sense. Everything became logical

and rightful.

This shocking information just came out of

nowhere.

Old Master Ferguson coughed. His face

became ugly.

‘Nicole concealed her identity, so how

would we know that she’s your daughter?”

He snapped back at Floyd and excused

himself using this reason.

Floyd sneered and angrily retorted. ‘So, you

re saying that the harsh treatment she

received at your place is our fault? Back

then when she liked Eric and wanted to

marry him, I disagreed, but she went behind

my back to get married anyway. I was so

angry for three years that I cut off all

contact with her. I thought that it’d be fine

as long as she’s happy, but I never would’ve

imagined that your family didn’t even treat

her as a human being!”

Quinn spoke in panic, “She’s well-fed and

has a roof over her head, so how is she

being ill-treated? We were kind to her, but

she didn’t show us any gratitude and even

lied to us? How can we not be angry?”

Floyd’s face became stern and was just

about to speak when Nicole tugged on his

clothes. She let out a cold snort that carried

disdain and contempt.

‘Even if it’s the whole world’s fault, it has

nothing to do with your family, right?

I asked for it, so I deserve to be lowly and put

up with all your vileness. I deserve to use

my own blood in an attempt to exchange for

someone’s love. It serves me right to be a

blind fool for the past three years. Is that

what you mean? Sorry to say, I’m not a

generous person, so in the future, I can only

return what I’ve received little by little, an

eye for an eye…”

Nicole hooked her lips and did not hide her

disgust. ‘Do they think that I’d just forget

about the past? That I’d forget about those

humiliations? If I get the opportunity, I’ll

definitely get back at them!’

Quinn’s face stiffened. Old Master Ferguson

glared at Quinn angrily and was annoyed by

her talkativeness, so Quinn shrank back in

fear and dared not speak again.

Wendy Quade, who stood at the side silently

this whole time, suddenly stepped forward.

Her voice was soft and weak as she said, ”

Nicole, I know that you hate me. I’m the one

who used so much of your blood. It has

nothing to do with the Fergusons. Just come

at me if you want. If we’d known that you

were the heiress of Stanton Corporation, I

think that Eric wouldn’t have treated you

like this.

Since what’s done is already done,

I hope that you can forgive us.”

Although Wendy was resentful of Nicole’s

true identity, her smug sense of superiority

when she looked at Nicole in the past was

vastly different from her current position.

They were like heaven and hell.

Wendy hated Nicole’s good fortune. ‘Why

can Nicole get things that others can’t right

at her fingertips? Eric Ferguson must be

mine!’

Nicole swept a sidelong glance at Wendy

and thought, ‘She really knows how to

involve herself in the drama, huh?

With a scoff, Nicole said, This is not a place

for trash. Who are you to talk over here…”
