The Deserted Rich Beauty novel Chapter 56

The staff on the side politely put the emerald pipe in front of Nicole, who picked it up and looked at it.

There was a small red spot at the bottom of the tobacco pipe.

'So it is the real deal...' Nicole thought.

"Thank you," Nicole said to the staff.

She simply ignored the two women who were on the side. Quinn could not stand it anymore and coldly snorted. "Nicole, are your eyes on your feet? Don't you know how to be polite when you see your elders?"

'How did she treat me back then? She never treated m e properly when I was her daughter-in-law and expects me to treat her like an elder now?’

Nicole's eyes flickered. She raised an eyebrow and said, "Oh, Mrs. Ferguson, you’re here too. What a coincidence!"

Her words were enough to make Quinn die from exasperation.

Quinn’s face turned red with anger. "You think that just because you have a backer, you don't need to respect me? Don't forget that I'm your mother-in-law!"

Before Nicole and Eric's divorce, Quinn had never considered herself as Nicole's mother-in-law. Instead, Quinn only thought of herself as a master and treated

Nicole as if she was a servant.

Whenever Nicole went back to the Ferguson Villa, Quinn would always find ways to mock Nicole's lowly ingratiation. She would make Nicole do housework and chores, and find excuses to reprimand and punish Nicole. Quinn would often bring back other young single ladies from other affluent families to hang around in front of Nicole and even gave those ladies Eric's private number so that Nicole would know what to do and back off by herself.

At that time, Nicole was a thorn in Quinn's side.

Nicole could not help but laugh lightly. "Have you gone senile? I divorced your son long ago. You can find someone else to be your daughter-in-law..."

"Nicole, you're so rude! How can you talk to your elders like that?" Ingrid could not help but speak up. She was greatly humiliated by Nicole on several occasions, so when she saw Nicole again, she began to fear her.

Fortunately, her mother was here, so Ingrid worked up the courage to speak.

The atmosphere felt heavy for a moment. Nicole's smile faded as she swept a cold glance at Ingrid. "Are you trying to teach me what to do?" 1

Ingrid shrank to the back and dared not make another sound. She just looked at her mother helplessly.

The Ferguson mother-daughter pair originally wanted to pull Nicole off her high horse, then coax her and take the emerald pipe away, but it turned out that

Nicole did not do anything as they had planned.

If not for the staff in the room, Quinn would have been more straightforward and would not have the patience to babble on with Nicole.

Quinn was a little nervous and said, "Nicole, I'll give you $30 million. I must take the pipe!"

She had already contacted her son because she knew that she could not hide it any longer. If Nicole really took their family heirloom away, not to mention her father-in-law, even her husband would not forgive her!
