The Deserted Rich Beauty (Nicole and eric)
Chapter 1981 House on Fire

Clayton's words were always a surprise to Nicole.

Thus, Nicole's heart melted, and she hugged him again.

After Lumi finished changing her clothes, she came out and saw Nicole and Clayton glued together.

At that moment, Lumi and her assistant, who were in the room, were petrified.

Did they have to torment others like this?

Lumi regretted saying those things in the past. It was really unnecessary.

She just wished that she could go back in time.

Do you two know that this is my wedding?" Lumi could not help but ask.

Nicole let go of Clayton and smiled.

"I know. It's not like I've never been married before."

After Nicole finished speaking, she dragged Clayton out.

Clayton did not change his expression. He just nodded at Lumi and followed Nicole.

Lumi pursed her lips and stared in their direction. She heard that Clayton was decisive and ruthless in the business world. He never showed mercy and was as unemotional as a robot.

However, it did not seem right. Was the man who was hugging Nicole and acting coquettishly earlier the same person as the legendary Clayton Sloan?

It was incredulous!

"Ms. Makinen, it's almost time. We should head over..."

The assistant behind Lumi urged her.

Lumi nodded and quickly turned her attention back to herself. The person behind her held the hem of her skirt while she walked over gracefully.

When the music played, everyone was still congratulating the Carters and Makinens on this joyous event.

Although there were some speculations, everyone looked calm on the surface.

Mr. and Mrs. Makinen greeted the guests with high spirits. They had a very good relationship with the Carter family.

When the two people from the Lindstrom family came, they just said hello indifferently and went to sit at their assigned seats.

Although it was awkward, the Lindstroms still needed to bite the bullet and come over to congratulate the Carters and the Makinens to maintain the superficial harmony. Otherwise, everyone would suffer if there were rumors of discord among the three families.

Only Kai =a!;WKP< Nicole represented the Stanton family.

Kai and Julie went elsewhere in a blink of an eye.

Nicole and Clayton were talking and laughing. They were so into each other that no one else could interrupt them.

After a while, someone came over and whispered a few words to Nicole.

Nicole paused, looked up, and saw lan winking at her.

She sighed and nodded.

Clayton raised his eyebrows. "What's wrong?"

Nicole said in a low voice, "Carter asked me to help intercept someone that the bride doesn't like. He doesn't want that person to create trouble."

She stood up after saying that.

Clayton frowned. "Who is it?"

"The bride's sister."

Nicole went directly to the entrance afterward.

Kirsi was standing there in a beautiful dress, pestering Tumi's mother, Mia Lichen.

Mia clearly could not keep up the smile on her face and was furious.

Although Kirsi was not a very popular actress, she appeared on the trending topics quite often. Her appearance attracted the attention of many guests.

Nicole smiled and walked over.

She could hear Kirsi explaining to Mia, "I just need to say something to my sister. I'll leave right after. She doesn't answer my calls. I just want to congratulate her personally. After all, she's been my sister for so many years..."

The bride was about to make her grand entrance, so it would be embarrassing if a quarrel broke out at this moment.

However, Kirsi did not care so much.

Nicole stretched out her hand to hold Kirsi's arm. She smiled.

"You should know best whether you're here to congratulate the couple or create trouble. You're the last person who should be here

right now."

Kirsi's face stiffened. She did not expect that Nicole would be here.

Mia let out a long sigh of relief.

"Ms. Stanton, thank you very much."

"You're welcome, Mrs. Makinen. You can go and entertain the guests. Leave this to me."

Nicole smiled. No one could pick out a fault in her attitude.

As soon as Mia left, Kirsi could not say so many righteous words.

Kirsi dared to make others speechless, but she did not dare to deal with Nicole.

Falcon Entertainment was one of Nicole's family's businesses. So, Nicole could make it impossible for Kirsi to continue her career in the entertainment industry. Thus, Kirsi was still somewhat apprehensive.

Nicole looked gentle and approachable on the surface, but when she smiled at Kirsi, there was no trace of friendliness in Nicole's eyes. Kirsi felt a little threatened by her. Kirsi paused and took a deep breath.

"Ms. Stanton, what are you trying to do?"

Nicole let go of her hand and looked at her with a smile.

"I don't care whether you like Samuel or if you're just trying to make your sister upset out of jealousy. If Mr. Carter's wedding is ruined because of your bullsh*t, I won't let you off the hook."

Nicole said the harshest words with the softest smile.

lan made the right decision to ask Nicole to stop Kirsi.

That was because he was aware of Nicole's influence in this circle.

A small fry like Kirsi would not dare to confront Nicole head-on.

Kirsi's expression changed a bit, and she took a deep breath.

She took out a gift box from her bag and handed it over to Nicole.

"It's fine if my sister doesn't want to see me. This is a small gift for her. Ms. Stanton, will you please pass it to her on my behalf?'

Nicole took it over. "Sure."

Kirsi looked at the entrance and did not linger any longer. She turned around, put on her sunglasses, and left.

She had a tough time in showbiz during this time. Samuel did not pull any strings for Kirsi since his divorce, so everyone thought that Kirsi's backer had given up on her.

At this time, Samuel even went abroad and could not be contacted.

Kirsi bought herself a trending topic several times, but the response was mediocre. It even aroused everyone's disgust.

She was not willing to succumb to those lewd old men, so she wanted to get in good graces with her family.

However, after the confrontation with Lumi, the Makinen family and even Julian Makinen stopped answering Kirsi's calls.

Kirsi was really struggling without her sister who loved her the most.

However, Lumi could marry lan Carter even in her second marriage. It was really unfair that Kirsi ran into obstacles everywhere.

Nicole was relieved after watching Kirsi leave.

She casually handed Kirsi's gift to the staff who was sorting the gifts.

"Put it with the other gifts."

"Yes, ma'am."

Nicole turned around and was about to go back when a waitress suddenly ran over to her. The waitress said in a low voice, "Ms. Stanton, Mr. Kai Stanton said that the Stanton Mansion is on fire. He asked that you hurry back."

Nicole froze and turned her head in shock.

She panicked for a moment.

Chatty and Floyd were at home. Did anything happen to them if the house was on fire?

Just as Nicole was about to run out, she suddenly remembered something and looked at the waitress warily.

"My brother said that? He should've called me personally. I'll look for my husband first."

Nicole would not easily believe a stranger's words anymore.

She had learned her lesson.

Before Nicole went back in, the waitress continued to speak in a nervous voice.

"Ms. Stanton, it's an emergency! Mr. Kai's car is waiting for you outside. Ms. Nixon is also there. We'll inform Mr. Sloan for you."

Indeed, Kai disappeared after a short while.

Julie was also not around.

Did they already hear about the accident?

Nicole's phone was muted so that it would not affect the wedding.

Perhaps she did not hear their calls and Kai could not replace her, so he asked a waitress to come to her.

The waitress managed to convince Nicole when she mentioned that Julie was there. Nicole instantly became less vigilant.

At this time, the music started, the lights dimmed, and the bride had slowly entered the venue.
