Chapter 125 Divorce Gift
Gerard Lichman was delighted to learn that
Nicole was coming over in person and gave
her a call.
‘President Nicole, please bring the little
traitor when you come over. Everyone
misses it’
Nicole responded. ‘Sure, no problem!”
This way, Nicole could kill two birds with
one stone! She could rely on Tigger to
capture the hearts of J&L’s team and she
would not feel so bored over there.
Nicole buried herself in work until the
evening when the streetlights came on and
as stars dotted the night sky.
She stretched her back and took her purse.
Seeing that Grant’s office light was still on,
she felt a little guilty because she had it too
easy as the CEO, especially compared to her
big brother.
Nicole knocked on the door and poked her
head in, smiling at the person who was still
in a video conference. He calmly listened to
the other party’s report in a foreign
language and meticulously caught all the
key points. He glanced at her and pointed to
a seat, then continued the meeting.
She spat out her tongue and obediently went
over to sit down, listening in to Grant and
the other party’s conversation. It sounded
like Ferguson Corporation was in a difficult own
situation.
Once the meeting ended, Grant hung up the
phone. Nicole lifted her head, slightly
puzzled.
“Is our company in Europe going to launch
the same products as Ferguson
Corporation?”
Grant nodded. “We have the same quality
and we’re fighting a price war. The
Fergusons are sure to lose.”
This was unmistakably targeted business
competition. Nicole frowned slightly.
“Ferguson Corporation has issued an
apology letter today.”
“I know, Dad and I have read it, but their
apology is secondary and useless compared
to the harm they caused you. Eric Ferguson
is very smart. Once the apology letter was
released, Ferguson Corporation’s share
prices stopped declining. This little dip is
irrelevant to them. It’s like they didn’t lose
anything.”
Grant smiled and looked at her. “What, are
you planning to go soft on them?”
“No way!” Nicole snorted coldly. Her heart
was now made of steel and could not be
softened.
“Ws not just because of this either. Our
market share abroad has always been
evenly split with Ferguson Corporation.
Since we got this opportunity, we’d have to
seize it. Don’t forget, we’re the first to enter
the European market and you’re the one
who single-handedly brought our business
to Europe and put us on the map. Ferguson
Corporation was only imitating your model
to develop a second business trend.”
Grant’s words suddenly reminded Nicole.
She was silent for a moment.
She almost forgot about this!
In the business world, there was no right
and wrong.
As long as it was within the framework of
the Iaw, everyone had the right to compete,
” L These past three years made her forget her
worth. She had once single-handedly
broken through the European market and
set up Stanton Corporation’s business there,
They became the leading and most
prominent Medianian brand in Europe.
That was the miracle that Nicole created!
Now that she recalled her past
achievements, Nicole was filled with tears
and passion.
The next night, Nicole went to the airport
alone to pick someone up.
In the VIP waiting room.
Nicole excitedly ran in and saw the
handsome, cool, reserved, and gentle man
who had such a unique temperament sitting
by the window. He looked so unattainable
that people would naturally look up to him.
She ran and covered his eyes from behind.
Guess who?”
The man helplessly took her hand. “Nicole…”
“Mae Nicole gave him a big bear hug.
This man was a world-class leading
physicist. At the age of seventeen, he won
the Breakthrough Prize, which was a top
science award. No one had yet to achieve
this at such a young age. His papers were
published in prestigious journals and were
held in high regard.
Perhaps since this man shined so brightly
on his own that no one bothered to
investigate his background. Thus, no one
knew that he was, in fact, Floyd Stanton’s
second son, Maverick Stanton.
Maverick looked at Nicole and saw that she
was still the same as before. He reached out
and touched her forehead.
Nicole shrank her neck and frowned at him.
“What are you doing?”
“You got hurt?” Maverick’s face was a little
glum.
“I accidentally humped into the wall:”
Nicole lied with ease,
Maverick nodded without suspicion. ”
Useless!”
The two siblings walked and talked.
Maverick asked insouciantly, “I heard you
got married?”
He was abroad for more than five years and
had been doing some top-secret research in
some lab, so he would occasionally chat
with Kai during his leisure time.
It seemed that Nicole’s marriage had upset
the whole family.
Maverick took out a bank card from his
pocket.
“This is the prize money from all the awards
I’ve won. There, take it as your wedding gift.”
All that prize money was an astronomical
sum!
Nicole’s second brother had never cared for
money and had always given his younger
sister all the prize money he got since
childhood.
Nicole blinked. “I just got divorced.”
“Oh, then it’s your divorce gift.”
Maverick quietly lowered his head and
dragged his expensive suitcase forward.
His face was expressionless as if he did not
care.
