The Deserted Rich Beauty novel Chapter 2023

The floor carpet was very thick, and all sharp edges were covered with a soft protective layer, so there was no need to worry that Chatty would fall and hurt herself.

Chatty was also very tenacious.

She followed Daddy and Mommy without crying or making a fuss, and climbed down the stairs steadily, step by step.

Floyd glared at the couple before him, then ran over to carry Chatty.

"Our little Chatty is so amazing! She can climb stairs at such a young age. What a genius!"

Clayton paused and thought that it sounded familiar.

Julie ran inside and hugged Nicole happily.

"You're finally back! You went on vacation so suddenly that I wasn't even aware!"

It was indeed sudden.

Nicole smiled, but she could not explain certain things.

"Well, I wanted to give you and Third

Brother some personal space."

Kai sat on the sofa in the living room and looked up nonchalantly.

"I think you wanted some personal space and used us as an excuse! I feel exploited!”

Julie clicked her tongue, and Kai consciously shut his mouth.

Nicole laughed and thought that Kai deserved it.

Everyone was there, so Nicole did not have to look after Chatty.

Thus, Nicole went to have tea with Julie in the greenhouse outside.

Julie was arranging the tablecloth with her head down when she heard Nicole approaching and sighing.

"I haven't been back for almost a month. Nothing happened, right?”

"Ms. Stanton, you're so well-informed, so why are you asking unnecessary questions?”

Julie shook her head and laughed.

Nicole pursed her lips.

"Clayton only told me about the good news when I was recovering from an injury abroad. I didn't notice for a while that he was just sugar-coating everything. All I heard was his filtered news."

Julie's body froze. She turned to look at Nicole with a look of astonishment on her face.

"Recover from an injury? You were injured?!”

Julie took a step forward. Her eyes were filled with shock and concern.

Nicole smiled. "I'm fully recovered now. It's just a minor injury, so don't tell anyone about it. If Dad finds out, he'll get worried again."

Julie frowned slightly.

"What happened? Didn't you go on vacation? How did you get injured?"

Nicole raised her eyebrows. "It's all because of that trouble from before. But we don't have to worry now. Tyler has already been arrested."

Julie fell silent.

Nicole quickly changed the subject. "Is everything going well with Yvette? I'm most worried about her."

Julie rolled her eyes.

"No, she's not doing so well. You know her temper. How could she control those people? Also... She's pregnant, so Lance wants her to come back. But she refuses to, saying that she'd rather not have the baby. She doesn't want to give up halfway."

Nicole paused ?b-

Yvette Quimbey did have a bad temper.

She was competitive and would not admit defeat, but she could also hurt others easily.

Nicole sighed and sat on the side.

“I'll go and take a look when I'm there on a business trip in a few days.

"I don't know how to persuade her. She wants both her baby and her career, but they're just conflicting interests for her right now. Yvette still hasn't gained a firm foothold and failed several times as soon as she got there, so everyone is just waiting to see her make a fool of herself."

Nicole nodded and smiled.

"Do you wanna go together if you have time?"

"Sure!"

Julie agreed.

She lowered her head and took a sip of rose water. Suddenly, she remembered something and turned to look at Nicole.

"You know what? The most interesting news that’s been going around recently is that Angie's and Eric’s son is not with Eric. But Angie isn't here. Did she throw her son over to Eric to reserve a seat for herself?"
