Nicole had not strolled around the streets here, so she was just walking around aimlessly.
Unknowingly, she walked to the end of a street.
She was a little lost and looked around, seemingly a little confused. When she raised her eyes, she saw a bar.
After thinking about it, Nicole walked in.
The music inside was deafening, but there was not much of a crowd. Nicole swept a glance, then walked to the
private area and went to a booth.
She was a little tired and wanted to relax.
However, not long after, someone stood in front of her and blocked the light.
Nicole frowned, raised her head, and saw a few people in front of her.
Autumn was one of them. Behind her were a few frail- looking men with outstanding looks and figures. Their strong perfume made Nicole feel unpleasant.
Nicole suppressed her heart’s doubt and acted calmly. “What a coincidence, Ms. Ferguson.”
Autumn smiled and raised an eyebrow. “Ms. Stanton, we’re Really fated to meet. Why are you alone? You don’t mind if we all sit together and have some fun, right?”
Nicole’s facial features were picturesque, and her smile was playful.
“If I mind, will you leave with your friends?”
Autumn’s expression stiffened, so much so that she could barely hold her smile.
She curled the corners of her lips.
“Ms. Stanton, this isn’t Atlanta, and you don’t own this bar, so you don’t call the shots here.”
Nicole lowered her eyes in disgust, picked up the bag next to her, and stood up.
“Fine, then suit yourself. I’m leaving.”
Nicole was not in the mood to argue with this woman.
Suddenly, Nicole felt that all Ferguson women were very annoying, whether it was Ingrid or Autumn.
Before Nicole could take two steps out, Autumn said in a cool tone.
“I’ve been waiting for you to beg me, but I didn’t expect that you’d rather stop the construction and do the inspection than ask the Leonard family for help.”
Nicole paused in her steps. Her smile instantly disappeared as she did not even bother to maintain perfunctory politeness.
She turned her head slightly to look at Autumn with an indifferent gaze.
“Beg you? Why should I?”
“Ms. Stanton, don’t you think that you’ve offended me from the very beginning?”
Autumn’s tone was very aggressive with the arrogance of a spoiled rich lady.
Autumn was different from that brainless Ingrid Ferguson. I f Ingrid did not have her brother Eric, how could she have gotten into the elite circle with her skills?
However, Autumn got to where she was today with her intelligence, high education, and high ICI.
The only one who could compete with Nicole was Autumn.
Now, the high society ladies in the circle were putting Nicole on a pedestal. They envied and admired Nicole as if her existence was what they aspire to be.
In Autumn’s opinion, Nicole was just relying on her family’s backing to show her power.
Besides that, what else did Nicole have?
Nicole looked back at Autumn. She tilted her head to size Autumn up with a cold gaze. “Offend you? I’ve offended a lot of people, so who the hell are you to me?”
Since Autumn was not willing to maintain a superficial harmony, they could just go all out.
Anyway, Nicole was not bothered to deal with a woman like Autumn.
Autumn froze for a moment and let out a laugh.
“How long do you think you can be tough? The quality inspection will last at least half a year or even two or three years. Does Stanton Corporation not want this project anymore?”
If Nicole went to the Leonard family to beg for mercy and put away her condescending attitude, Autumn might be soft -hearted to let Nicole go.
When Nicole heard these words, she suddenly turned around and approached Autumn.
Autumn subconsciously took a step back.
She looked at Nicole’s cold exquisite features that were looking at her haughtily and suddenly felt like her heart was twisted.
