The Divorced Billionaire Heiress Boss

Chapter 2601 Float to the Surface

After all, new and old grudges were not so easily erased.

Selena’s face was as calm as ever.

She just frowned slightly when he heard Clayton’s name.

Selena felt it was impossible that Nicole was involved.

Soon, Mitchell coughed.

“No, Mr. Sloan had a great time that night and drank in your stead. He was also busy taking care of Miss Liliana, so he didn't have a chance to do anything.”

“Then maybe he arranged someone to do it.”

Eric spoke decisively.

Mitchell paused. “But there are more people who came in the name of Stanton Corporation, Mr. Ferguson. Noah Stanton, the general manager of a branch of Stanton Corporation, also came. Although he didn’t come with Ms. Nicole, he came in the name of Stanton Corporation.”

As soon as Mitchell finished speaking, Eric’s expression turned cold.

His gaze was stern.

He had a slight impression of Noah. Noah’s wife, Jade, had troubled Nicole back then, but she was quickly dismissed.

In recent years, Noah’s family was invisible and had no real power. They just had dividends every year.

Floyd was kind enough to give them that.

Noah had been invisible for so long, and he had always been in the background of the Stanton family.

Why did he suddenly attend Eric’s wedding?

Mitchell pursed his lips and felt very suspicious of Noah’s motives.

“Mr. Ferguson, we strictly vetted the guests’ background. Noah is actually quite successful in the industry because of his relationship with the Stanton family. However, when it comes to interests, everyone will be more cautious. Perhaps my speculation was wrong. The other guests’ investigations are also in progress.” C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

Selena sat on the sofa with her back straight and turned to look at Eric.

“I have a very direct solution.”

“What?”

“Let’s hold a party and invite all these people and the Nelson family. Then we’ll know who it is, right?”

It was direct but also dangerous.

Alerting the enemy may only invite more violent revenge.

Eric was silent for a few seconds, then chuckled lightly.

“Okay.”

Since Selena was not afraid, Eric would not back down.

Mitchell nodded and immediately went to prepare for this party.

However, the people they invited were not as many as those who attended the wedding.

Nicole and Julie still participated.

Clayton did not come because there was something wrong with his company in Liberty, so he had to rush over.

Julie’s belly was bulging slightly. It was clear that she was almost three months pregnant.

However, Julie was wearing loose clothes, so it was not very obvious.

Julie handed the gift to Selena, smiled, and hugged her.

“Last time, I regretted not being able to attend the wedding. Kai is the one to blame! He took away my passport!”

Selena could not help but laugh. She was really happy for Julie.

“You shouldn’t come. You should be more careful now. We can still meet here. You must watch out when you’re around more people. I’m very happy that you can come!”

Nicole and Julie were the ones who helped her during her most difficult times.

Selena took them to a quiet place, brought Julie a glass of milk, and handed Nicole a glass of cocktail.

Nicole froze for a moment.

Julie, who was next to her, could not help but chuckle. “Ms. Nelson, Mr. Sloan told me before he left that I absolutely can’t let her drink.”

“Why?”

Julie touched her belly, then glanced at Nicole’s.

Nicole could not help but smile helplessly and touched her belly.

“Don’t make a fuss.”

Selena understood instantly. Her eyes widened in surprise.

“For real?”

Nicole nodded with a smile. “It hasn’t been announced yet. Clayton said to wait a little longer.”

“Congratulations!”

Julie smiled and said, “I think yours might come soon too. Then, the three of us can hang out and have play dates!”

Selena smiled.

The three of them talked happily.

Eric was walking over with someone. When he saw Nicole, he was startled for a second, then he looked away calmly.

“Selena, come here. Let me introduce you to someone.”

Selena put down the cup in her hand and looked over.

Nicole could not help but frown.

“Uncle Noah? Why are you here?”

Noah was mingling among a group of successful businessmen and greeted Eric.

He was taken aback when he saw Nicole. Then, he smiled naturally.

“I haven’t left Atlanta yet. Your father’s birthday is coming up in a few days, so he asked me to take a few days off. Coincidentally, Mr. Ferguson invited me to this party, so I thought I’d come over to join in the fun. I didn’t expect you to come too.”

Nicole nodded curtly but was not interested at all.

She was not very close to her second uncle in the first place. Not to mention, Jade and her daughter made life difficult for Nicole before, so it would be a lie if Nicole said she did not mind.

However, Noah was Floyd’s younger brother after all, and Floyd still loved his younger brother.

At least, Noah kept his glory and wealth.

It was a pity that Noah did not have any biological children. Otherwise, he would not have been implicated by Jade’s daughter.

Selena turned her head to look over. Her gaze carried a bit of scrutiny.

When Noah saw Selena, he smiled more politely.

“Mrs. Ferguson, you’re really beautiful. You and Mr. Ferguson are a perfect match! When I was on the small island, I thought you two looked good together, and now, I think you two get along well. You two are more good-looking than couples on TV!”

“Mr. Stanton, why do you keep praising Mrs. Ferguson? If Mr. Ferguson becomes jealous later, we can’t afford the consequences!”

The people next to him could not help but laugh.

Noah sighed and smiled.

“Mr. Ferguson, don’t blame me. My wife’s daughter is around Mrs. Ferguson’s age, so I feel like I’m looking at her. But she was sent abroad. Although she made a mistake, I’ll feel sad when she gets married.”

Eric’s dark eyes were full of scrutiny. The people next to him might know the inside story, so they did not say anything.

After all, Nicole was still around. Sympathizing with Noah might mean offending Nicole.

They did not want to take sides.

Nicole could not help but roll her eyes.

“Uncle Noah, if you miss her so much, you can go abroad with her. No one is stopping you!”

After she finished speaking, she turned around and left with Julie.

Julie said speechlessly, “Why is your second uncle going crazy? Didn’t he get divorced?”

Nicole snorted lightly. “He didn’t divorce Jade. The agreement was signed at that time, but Jade said something to change his mind. Besides, he felt that he couldn’t do without a partner. Jade is quite attentive, so he planned to make do with it. But it was impossible for Jade to join the company. Lydia was also sent away. During this period of time, they didn’t cause any trouble.”

As long as they did not create trouble, Nicole would not mind Floyd supporting this family of trash.

Now, it seemed that Noah’s family was behaving themselves.

Noah just made frequent visits to such occasions probably because he wanted to regain control of the company through some cooperation.

This was understandable.
