The Divorced Billionaire Heiress chapter 188
Nicole subconsciously looked up. When she heard what Ian said, she laughed unconsciously.
Two people on the second floor saw this scene. Eric’s eyes became gloomy. He put down the glass of
wine in his hand and went downstairs without hesitation.
“Ferg! Don’t make a scene! “ Keith hurriedly spoke. Otherwise, what could explain Eric’s current
behavior?
Coincidentally, the music downstairs came to a stop. The artists on stage bowed and everyone gave
them a round of applause.
The other performers went down one after another while Luna stayed onstage. Luna looked at Nicole,
who was not far away, and smiled meaningfully.
Julie sensed that something was wrong and approached Nicole. “Is Luna trying to make a scene?“
Nicole laughed insouciantly. “Since she’s asking for it, don’t stop her…“
Julie raised her eyebrows and was relieved to know that Nicole noticed it.
On stage.
“Hello everyone, my name is Luna. I’m truly honored to be here today. I’d like to wish Second Young
Master Carter a happy birthday…“
Everyone cheered, to which Ian responded by raising his wine glass.
It was a courteous and cordial atmosphere.
The applause gradually quieted down, so Luna continued, “It might seem presumptuous, but I ‘d like to
invite Ms. Stanton to the stage for a performance. Ms. Stanton, will you play a song for Second Young
Master Carter?“
Luna was resentful towards Nicole. ‘So what if she’s rich? I’m the daughter of a business magnate too,
so why should I put up with her?’
She was also envious of Nicole when she thought about how Kai treated her.
Nicole smirked at Luna, who was on the stage. ‘ Where did she get the courage to invite guests to
perform on stage? Does she think that I’m a performer too? Perhaps she thinks that I won’t be better
than her, so she can highlight her strengths? Or that I’ll chicken out?’
Ian’s smile stiffened. He pointed at Luna and lowered his voice to ask the butler, who was by his side.
“Where’d you get this imbecile?“
The butler’s face turned pale in an instant as his forehead broke out in cold sweat. ‘Had I known that this
young artist was so clueless, I wouldn’t have hired her! ‘
Luna said, “Ms. Stanton, do you think that you’re too honorable to play a song for Second Young Master
Carter? Or… I’m sorry, perhaps you don’t know anything about piano?“
She even deliberately made a sympathetic face with regret and surprise.
However, her eyes carried a hint of excitement and a gloating smile.
Ian secretly cursed under his breath and said, “ Nicole, ignore her…“
He was just about to go up to stop Luna when Nicole pulled his arm. She cast a sidelong glance at the
woman on stage.
Nicole lowered her head and chuckled, then took a sip of juice and handed the glass to the waiter on the
side.
She lifted her long dress with one hand and walked up onto the stage gracefully.
Under the bright lights, Nicole’s presence overshadowed Luna, who had become a prop in the
background.
Nicole stood there in the spotlight and seemed to be surrounded by a faint halo, which made her skin
glow. She looked even more stunning on stage.
Luna stiffened slightly and wanted to say something, but Nicole suddenly reached out and took the
microphone from her.
Her action was gentle and firm.
Nicole’s eyes were cold as she swept an indifferent glance at Luna. “You can get down now.“
In the future, Luna would not have a chance to stand on any stage again.
Nicole ignored Luna, turned her body sideways, and bowed slightly to the crowd before she walked over
to the piano.
