The Deserted Rich Beauty novel Chapter 381

Back in Stanton Mansion, Nicole was exhausted. She could not find it in herself to be happy at all despite getting this large project.

Perhaps it was because she had not been mentally prepared for such an old, tragic story to be brought up.

She lay in her bed in the dead of night, mulling over the contents of that photo over and over again.

Suddenly, there was a notification on her phone.

She picked it up irritably, glanced at it, and frowned.

It was from Eric.

[Nicole, I'm glad that the person I saved was you.]

[Not anyone else, but you. Thank God you're safe and sound.] 1

Nicole blinked and looked at the darkness out the window. Then, she went out to get a glass of milk and finished it slowly before going back upstairs.

The past would not come back anyway, so why should she dwell on something that she had already let go of?

At that thought, Nicole went to bed and had a good night's sleep.

The news of the cooperation with Clayton Sloan was abuzz after just one night.

Major corporations and companies expressed their goodwill and wanted to work with Stanton Corporation. They would profit even if they were involved in a minuscule part of the project.

When Nicole opened her eyes, her phone almost exploded from all the calls she was getting. Fortunately, she had muted it beforehand.

Tigger swaggered in with its wagging tail. "Mama, everyone's waiting for you..."

Nicole replied to Yvette's message and freshened up before going downstairs.

"Big Brother?"

Grant stood in the living room with a stern and cold look. Nicole did not know who he was on the phone with, but he immediately hung up when he saw her come downstairs.

"What a big heart you have!"

Nicole was confused. Floyd sat at the dining table with the newspaper, smiling leisurely.

"How did you get through to Clayton Sloan? His people have already begun to contact your brother. Didn’t his attitude change too quickly?"
