Chapter 61 Junk

At that moment, Nicole felt that when lan

was serious, he could hook her heart and

soul, and she was lost in thought for a

while.

‘He’s not the same frivolous Young

Master as he was three years ago…’

Nicole panicked and quickly gathered her

composure. She did not want him to

notice her abnormality. No matter who it

was, Nicole did not want to get caught up

in a whirlpool of love again.

“Carter, you’re getting better at coaxing

women now, huh?”

lan was slightly stunned. He laughed and

took a step back. “No one else is

qualified enough for me to coax.”

“Right… If your girlfriends lined up, they

could probably circle the globe, so they’re

the ones coaxing you…” Nicole raised her

eyebrows and looked at him teasingly.

Everyone knew about lan Carter’s messy

love life.

lan grinned. “That’s all in the past. You

know that those are fake. I’m innocent…”

“Alright. Thank you for comforting me,

but I’m really tired…”

Nicole did not want to fall into another

man’s tenderness. Not to mention, lan

was her close friend for many years, so

she did not want to lose this friend.

Seeing that Nicole was not as downcast a

s she was earlier, lan went over and

stroked her head. His gaze was gentle

and doting. “I’ll leave then… Take a good

rest.”

When lan was not being frivolous, he had

such a mature, reserved, and noble

temperament that it was difficult not to

get lost in

‘What a devil!’ Nicole cursed in her heart.

She looked away and saw the emerald

pipe on the table that she left on the

table. Nicole hooked her lips, went over,

picked it up, and looked at it. Her smile

gradually turned cold. She then casually

threw it aside and went to her room.

If Old Master Ferguson knew that his

beloved family heirloom was being

treated like this, he would be furious!

Nicole slept until 10:00 pm and got up to

see Grant’s message. (I have something t

o deal with and will be abroad for three

days. Look after the company.]

She thought, ‘Brother trusts me so much t

o take over for a few days? Why is he not

worried?’

Nicole thought that Grant would be on

the plane by now, so she did not call and

sent him a text message. [If there’s any

trouble, you can’t blame me! Also, dearest

big brother, please be prepared to clean u

p my mess… Hahaha!)

She instantly got a notification of a new

message.

Grant helplessly replied to his sister. (Just

don’t go bankrupt. Everything else is still

tolerable.)

Nicole was relieved and suddenly

remembered the pipe in the living room.

She jumped out of bed, turned on the

lights, chose a good angle, and took a

close-up photo of the emerald pipe. She

then posted it on her social media.

[Just bought this little junk for everyone t

o admire!

If I’m unhappy, why should others be

happy?’ Nicole thought.

Soon, Yvette and lan shared her post,

which reached Eric Ferguson’s circle in n

o time.

Everyone saw that Old Master Ferguson’s

family heirloom had become a “little junk”

in Nicole’s hands.

Nicole ate a snack and went back to

sleep again, naturally unaware that her

photo made Old Master Ferguson so

furious that he lost his appetite.

When Nicole woke up at 8:00 am, she

received a call from Yvette in a daze.

“What is it?”

“I shared your post last night and there

are so many people asking to buy that

pipe for a high price! Someone offered up

to $60 million!”

Nicole was wide awake and laughed.’

Wow… It doubled overnight. I guess it’s

worth more than I imagined.’

“Well, I have no intention of selling. It’s

just for everyone to see.”

Yvette laughed out loud. “I recognized

one of them and dug deeper. Guess

what? That guy only did as Keith Ludwig

instructed. It looks like this is Eric

Ferguson’s intention. They probably can’t

sit still any longer.”

Nicole raised an eyebrow. Just as I

expected… Do they think I’m an idiot to

sell it?’

After chatting with Yvette for a bit, Nicole

saw that it was almost time and got

ready for work. She could not slack off

since Grant was not around.

She planned to drive to the office, so she

went to the garage to pick a car. The

luxury cars that her father ordered for her

had already arrived, so her garage looked

like a luxury car exhibition. Seeing all

these flashy cars made Nicole a little

speechless. After walking around, Nicole

was dazzled.

One of the most low-profile cars was a

gray Porsche Cayenne. Although it was

quite expensive, the design was not as

flashy as the rest of the cars in the

garage.

I’ll take this then! She thought.

Once Nicole sat in the car, the butler at

the Stanton mansion saw the footage in

the garage through the remote

monitoring system and called her in a

hurry.

“Miss, do you need a driver? He can be

there in five minutes.”
