Every strand of Tigger’s fur showed his rejection. Tigger did not want to see that lunatic Molly Stewart! Nicole smiled and went downstairs.
The phone just so happened to ring. Nicole went down and picked it up. “Hello, who is this?”
The other party was silent for a few seconds before speaking in a gruff tone.
“Ms. Stanton, it’s been a long time.”
Nicole froze. The smile at the corners of her lips faded, and her eyes became cold.
“Chairman Sloan?”
”Yes, Ms. Stanton. Are you feeling better?” There were deep meanings in his words. Nicole heard it.
He hoped that she would die quickly, right?
She smiled. “I’m much better, thanks to you. I can still live for a few more decades…”
Quavon was silent for a few seconds. He was probably furious.
”Don’t be too arrogant, girl. You rely on the little power your family has to cause trouble everywhere. Did your father not teach you to tuck your tail between your legs when you go out?”
His tone was hoarse and low as he suppressed his grim emotions. His slow voice carried a threat.
Nicole sneered and spoke in a very calm voice.
“My father taught me that if someone dares to lay a finger o n me, I should just kill him. Haha! Chairman Sloan, I’m afraid you didn’t teach your son Isaac to be a good person, right?”
With those words, the phone was silent for a full minute.
Quavon’s tone was heavy and cold. One could feel the danger in his voice even through the phone.
“What did you just say?” “Do I need to repeat it?” Quavon’s voice was frigid.
“Who told you that? Clayton?”
Nicole said, “Take a guess. Did Isaac take the initiative to tell me this matter that’s worthy of bragging about?”
Even if Quavon did not believe it, Nicole did not want to bring Clayton into it.
Thus, she diverted his attention.
“Isaac? He doesn’t even know himself…” Quavon’s voice stopped immediately after a beat.
He exposed too much information in that sentence. There was no need to say so much to Nicole.
In a moment of carelessness, he fell into this little girl’s trap.
“I’m warning you, even if you reveal what you know, no one will believe you. There’s no point in trying to blackmail me
with this.”
Quavon’s tone carried a hint of warning. Nicole sneered.
“Chairman Sloan, aren’t you the one who took the initiative to blackmail me? Why did it suddenly turn into me blackmailing you?”
Without waiting for Quavon’s answer, Nicole smiled and continued to speak.
“I’m not a gossip reporter, so I’m not interested in this. However, I think that someone like Isaac being paralyzed might become more explosive news.”
Quavon’s face changed slightly. His eyes were completely cold and sunken. His jaw was taut, and the veins at the corners of his forehead bulged.
On the phone, Nicole’s voice was clear and cold with a few hints of watching a good show.
“Do you know why I didn’t kill him completely? It’s because I want him to watch himself lose everything he has with his eyes open. It’s time for him to return what doesn’t belong to him and what he occupied for too long.”
Quavon’s face was gloomy, but before he could speak, Nicole hung up the phone.
She stood there in a faintly pensive mood. Her gaze was cold and stern for a while.
Then, she took out her phone. “Luca, do something for me…” The next few days.
Nicole paced around the study. During the few times where she had to go out, she was closely followed by a few bodyguards.
Even Kai was not aware of Nicole’s itinerary.
Clayton came over several times but to no avail.
He received a few replies to his messages, but his calls to her never got through.
