The two looked on at Nicole as they started laughing sarcastically.
Nicole had an indifferent look as she looked on impassively at the two bodyguards.
In her eyes, the two of them were nothing but clowns.
Seeing her reaction, the two bodyguards looked at each other, and the one on the right laughed first,
“Girl, seeing that you are quite pretty, how about you follow me. I cannot guarantee you much, but I can
at least guarantee you a position at the gate of the Rogers’ manor. How about that?”
Hearing that, Nicole looked at him, a cold glint flashing past her eyes. Yet, the bodyguard felt a chill down
his spine and thought it was just an illusion.
He did not want to admit that he was scared by a little girl, and so his embarrassment turned into fury.
“Know your place, girl! Don’t you know who the master of this place is? If you dare cross me, I’ll make
you crawl for the rest of your life!”
It only then did Nicole take a proper measure of him. Her face was still frosty cold, her tone soft. “You?”
Seeing that a girl looked down on him, the bodyguard was so furious he held his hand out to hit Nicole.
“You asked for this!”
A cold look appeared in Nicole’s eyes as she stretched her left hand out and easily swept the
bodyguard’s fist aside, and a crisp crack later, the bodyguard’s face suddenly turned pale.
Nicole had straight-up dislocated his right hand!
At this moment, Mr. Rogers Sr., who had gotten the message, came over, and he saw Nicole had already
broken his bodyguard’s arm and was stunned!
‘Are those people on that side all like this?’ he wondered.
‘Are they all young, beautiful girls?’
Seeing Mr. Rogers Sr. walking over, the bodyguard was overjoyed as he shouted at the former, “Mr.
Rogers Sr., you are here. This girl tried to force her way in without an invitation, and when I tried to stop
her, she dislocated my arm”.
As he said that, he looked on triumphantly at Nicole as if he could already see the scene of Mr. Rogers
Sr. admonishing her.
Yet, Mr. Rogers Sr. stepped forward and gave that bodyguard a brutal slap on the face!
“You imbecile! Who asked you to stop her?”
He then looked at Nicole with a very gentle smile, as if he was a very gentle senior. “Miss…
Come on in. The banquet has already started.”
When the two bodyguards saw this scene, both were terrified out of their wits.
This Nicole girl was a person that Mr. Rogers Sr had to welcome in person!
Shawn, who was by Mr. Rogers Sr.’s side, looked at Nicole in surprise, seemingly did not expect her to
be so important in his father’s eyes.
‘But by her looks, she was clearly just an ordinary person!’ he thought.
Nicole frowned a little. She was here just to deliver the item and did not intend to join the banquet.
But as she looked at Mr. Rogers Sr.’s face, her gaze sharpened a little.
“Have you come into contact with any special plants recently?”
?
Mr. Rogers Sr.’s hand paused for a moment, seemingly confused as to why she would ask such a
question. However, he still answered, “No, I’ve been ill of late, and I’ve not left the house for a long time
now.”
When Shawn heard Nicole asking that, a look of astonishment flashed across his eyes.
Nicole nodded as she followed Mr. Rogers Sr. inside. Her eyes were locked onto his face and the back of
his ears. And seemingly as if she noticed something, her gaze deepened somewhat.
She also noticed Shawn was looking at her from time to time, and that brought some thoughts to mind.
Mr. Rogers Sr. brought Nicole to the front hall with a genial attitude, like a senior performing his expected
responsibilities, and just as they were about to enter the door, he asked Nicole,” Miss, what is your
name?”
Nicole looked at him and saw the querying intent in his eyes. “Nicole Riddle.”
She did not have anything to hide. After seeing her face, with these people’s movements, they will find
out who she was soon enough.
Mr. Rogers Sr. tried to recall if there was such a family in Northon and could not think of any. Only then
did he smile somewhat regretfully. “A good name indeed.”
Shawn pushed the door open, and the eyes of everyone inside the room looked over. When Nicole was
just about to step in, she had already caught several gazes. She paused for a moment but still walked in
very calmly.
‘Since I’m already here, I cannot falter.’ She thought to herself.
Inside the hall, Harvey was the first to notice Nicole and was quite surprised.
‘Nicole actually came to attend Mr. Roger Sr.’s banquet?’ He wondered to himself.
‘What was going on? This is a banquet that ordinary celebrities cannot even attend.’
‘Yet, Nicole is just some girl. Not only did she come alone, Mr. Rogers Sr. even went to personally
receive her?’
He looked on at Nicole’s impassive face in astonishment as the smile in his eyes slowly disappeared.
‘This Nicole, she sure knows how to surprise me.’
He could never figure out where will she suddenly appear.
This made him quite irritable, as he was someone who had always been able to control and master the
situation.
Damien’s eyes widened as he could not believe the sight of Nicole standing behind Mr. Rogers Sr. He
almost wanted to yell. “Miley, look! Isn’t that Nicole?”
Miley looked up and immediately saw Nicole. At this moment, Nicole was led by Mr. Rogers Sr. toward
the center of the circle of prominent people.
Everyone looked at her in shock, but Nicole herself was calm, as if this was something ordinary
When she saw this, Miley was so shocked her phone fell to the ground.
‘Why is Nicole behind Mr. Rogers Sr.?’
Both Damien and Miley had to kneel and beg to finally receive an invitation to the Rogers banquet.
‘For them to expand so much effort to be invited to this banquet, only for them to see that Nicole walked
in just like that. She was not only late, but she even got Mr. Rogers Sr. to personally receive her!’ ‘What
the hell is going on?’
