Chapter 231 He Wants to Propose
There were three boxes altogether! The crowd was clearly getting excited. Nicole opened the second
box with mixed feelings. ‘Huh?” It was a white fall and winter hat.
The design was simple and there were no special features.
However, Nicole could tell at a glance that this was an out-of-season style from XN’s lineup two years
ago.
It was a limited-edition item at that time. However, it was not considered a limited-edition luxury
nowadays.
Yvette scoffed in disdain. “What the hell? I have one of these as well.
It’s a style from several years ago! Aren’t you being too perfunctory, President Ferguson?” 1 Julie looked
at the hat thoughtfully and remained silent. Nicole was also a little surprised.
There was a complicated look in her eyes. She opened the third box without hesitation. It was an
exquisite and fine jade bracelet.
The color was bright and pure, the texture was deep, and the workmanship was luxurious and exquisite.
It was flawless! Quaint, simple, and elegant, yet extremely charming.
It was also worth a lot of money. It most likely cost more than nine figures. Even if the monetary value of
the gifts all the guests sent today were added up, they would probably still be lesser than the two gifts in
front of her.
One was a diamond necklace. The other was a jade bracelet. Eric Ferguson was really quite generous…
Nicole stiffened slightly.
She did not want to associate them with the past, but she could not help but remember. The first time,
she gave him a ring. He gave her a necklace in return.
The second time, she gave him a scarf. He gave her a hat in return. She did not give him anything the
third time, and he did the same. However, he gave her a jade bracelet today.
Was he trying to make up for all the gifts he owed her before? The things that she had stopped mulling
Hell over once again surfaced in her memory.
Her emotions tangled and her heart grew sour. Her expression also sank.
‘Eric Ferguson really has a knack for upsetting me, huh? Does he think that I’ll pretend as if nothing
happened if he does this? I clearly told him that we no longer have anything to do with each other, but he
keeps reminding me time and time again! Fine, in that case, don’t blame me for being rude…
“Ms. Stanton, you’re so fortunate to get two big gifts in one go! How thoughtful of Mr. Ferguson… I think
that you two are truly made for each other.
Why don’t you take this opportunity to reconcile?” Hearing those words, Nicole’s cold eyes glanced over
at the speaker. ‘Hah… Chloe Snyder!’ All the people that Nicole did not want to see showed up at her
party.
The people around them also pricked their ears and listened closely.
If these two amazing figures got together, it would be more sensational than any celebrity scandal! It was
something worthy of shaking up the entire business world.
If these two powerhouses joined forces, they would be invincible. The women who covet Eric Ferguson
would no longer have a chance.
The men and women around the pair did not want them to get back together. They secretly envied and
resented them.
However, Nicole was unmoved when she heard Chloe Snyder’s words. She even sneered. “Selling
myself for two gifts? Ms. Snyder, it seems like you haven’t received a gift in a long time…”
Nicole pretended as if nothing happened and closed the lid of the box, ignoring Chloe’s nasty
expression.
Her expression was indifferent and unconcerned as if these were nothing to her. “I’ll accept your gifts, Mr.
Ferguson.
Thanks.” Nicole’s nonchalant appearance shocked the people around her. The relationship between Eric
Ferguson and Nicole Stanton was truly puzzling to outsiders.
It must be very awkward for an ex-husband to give his ex-wife a gift… However, everyone also secretly
admired the heiress of Stanton Corporation for being so worldly.
She did not bat an eye even when facing such expensive gifts. Her temperament was so calm and
valiant! Nicole turned around and left indifferently, not wanting to continue staying here and suffer the
crowd’s strange glances.
When Nicole subconsciously let out a sigh of relief, Yvette sneakily came up to her. Yvette grabbed
Nicole’s arm and pulled her to the side.
“Nikki, I just saw Ian secretly instructing the staff to prepare some kind of ceremony. I think he wants to
surprise you…” Nicole frowned.
