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.”
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?”
