The Deserted Rich Beauty (Nicole and eric) -
Chapter 2043 Little Money-Grubber
Julie could hear the sarcasm in Nicole's words. She felt embarrassed and winked at Nicole to hint at her.
For Julie's sake, Nicole stopped talking so that it would be less awkward.
However, Cheryl realized that she had been rude as she heard the dissatisfaction in Nicole's words. Cheryl smiled. "I'm sorry, it's just a subconscious reaction. Please don't take it to heart, Ms. Stanton."
She took out her business card and introduced herself seriously.
"Although I've just returned to Mediania, I've already registered with HY Law Firm. You can come to me any time if you need anything."
Nicole raised her eyebrows. There was nothing wrong with Cheryl's appearance.
Nicole took over Cheryl's business card with both hands, glanced at it, and smiled.
"Sure! HY is the best law firm in Atlanta, so they're sure to hire the best lawyers to guarantee our basic rights..."
Julie quickly echoed. "Right? Ms. Lichman won the grand prize of the debate competition abroad. She's an excellent lawyer. We're lucky to be able to invite her to the crew this time." Nicole and Julie looked at each other and smiled, tacitly understanding each other's inner thoughts.
Cheryl accepted the crew's job and came to the hot springs for a social engagement.
Julie was thoughtful and quick-witted, so Cheryl was comfortable with her.
Cheryl had a good impression of Julie and stayed back to chat with her.
Julie also had a lot of connections in Atlanta.
Cheryl could not let go of this opportunity because she wanted to develop her career in Atlanta.
Thus, she followed Julie here to pass the time.
Unexpectedly, Julie introduced a well-connected to Cheryl as soon as Cheryl told Julie of her plan.
Cheryl did not expect this well-connected person to be Nicole Stanton.
If Cheryl had known it was Nicole, Cheryl would not have taken the initiative to
contact her.
Her gaze lingered on Nicole and Julie.
Cheryl could tell that they had a good relationship. She was careless not to know about it in advance.
Perhaps the elite circle was just too small.
Wherever Cheryl went, Nicole would also be there.
Cheryl had a grudge against Nicole because of Eric.
She felt inferior to Nicole.
Cheryl felt frustrated whenever she thought about how Nicole rescued Eric's son in front of everyone that day.
Why could Nicole appear in front of Eric ?f> SIT; his son so openly, but Cheryl could not?
Cheryl only regretted not knowing Eric
sooner.
She was arrogant, so she did not want to please Nicole because she did not want to feel inferior.
At that thought, Cheryl raised her eyes and said to Julie, "I suddenly remembered that I have something to do at home. It's getting late, so I'll get going first. You can contact me any time if there's anything." Julie raised her eyebrows because she did not expect Cheryl to leave.
"I'll send you back then."
Julie took her car keys.
Cheryl refused with a smile.
"No need. My driver will come to pick me up. You can continue to have fun."
After speaking, Cheryl looked at Nicole for a moment, nodded, and turned to leave. Julie grew up in the elite circle, so she knew that a young lady like Cheryl who had a little family background and had just entered the workforce would have a temper.
Julie did not insist and stood there with Nicole to watch Cheryl leave.
Once Cheryl was completely out of sight, Julie clicked her tongue and frowned.
"She wasn't like this just now. Did you offend her?"
Nicole raised her eyebrows and shrugged her shoulders innocently.
"This is the second time we met and the first time we spoke..."
So, how would she get the chance to offend Cheryl?
Nicole laughed and folded her arms. "This top student just graduated and hasn't gone through the challenges of life yet, so she's quite arrogant."
Julie said, "I initially thought that I could help her to develop her network so that she could be a free consultant for my company. But I guess she's a goner."
She sighed regretfully.
Nicole glanced at her and jokingly said, " You and Kai are truly a match made in heaven! One makes money and the other saves money. Do you know where the money you save goes?" Julie looked at her, dumbfounded. "Where?"
Nicole casually brushed her hair aside.
"You leave it all to me to squander!"
Julie took a deep breath and put her arm around Nicole's neck.
"I forgot that you're a little money grubber!"
Nicole laughed. The two of them fooled around, attracting the attention of many people.
Cheryl only remembered to call the driver to pick her up when she walked to the entrance.
It was quite cold while she waited for the driver outside, but she did not want to go back in.
Cheryl knew very well that she did not care to be acquainted with Nicole, so she did not want to have more dealings with her.
She could hear the laughter inside, which she felt was ear-piercing.
Cheryl observed Nicole up close. Not only was Nicole beautiful, but she also had a very attractive voice and appearance. Her eyes also sparkled like diamond dust when she smiled. Nicole was humorous and had inside jokes with her friend. She was irresistibly charming.
Was this the reason men would go through thick and thin for her?
Being a top student in school had always been Cheryl's pride.
Cheryl always felt that she would be an outstanding person outside of school, but she paled in comparison to Nicole and felt inferior to her.
This feeling made Cheryl angry and jealous.
Regardless of who Cheryl had to rely on for her career, Cheryl did not want to have anything to do with Nicole.
However, Cheryl was helpless. Although Gerard's company was doing well, Gerard did not have many connections in the legal industry.
Thus, Cheryl rejected Gerard's offer to replace her a connection.
She wanted to rely on herself so that people like Eric would respect her.
The driver arrived after 20 minutes and apologized repeatedly.
"I'm really sorry, Miss. I was late because Mr. Eichman asked me to drop off a client at the last minute..."
Cheryl nodded without saying anything and got into the car.
She did not say a word even when she was shivering from the cold.
The driver noticed Cheryl's gloomy face and did not dare to say another word. He called Gerard when he got into the car.
"Mr. Eichman, yes, I've already picked up Ms. Eichman."
Nicole and Julie spoke for a while, but Nicole felt that they had more to say.
Thus, Nicole invited Julie to her private room and wanted to send Clayton home to accompany Chatty.
However, Julie refused decisively.
Julie pointed to her phone and said," Please, I have a night life. Since I don't have business here, I'll just head home."
Nicole raised her eyebrows. "Is my third brother coming to pick you up?"
"Kai is now our crew's consultant, so he's been very busy. He's probably working overtime."
Nicole smiled.
"Why doesn't he just become a director?"
"He said that he'd turn bald if he became a director, so he'd never be a director."
Julie shrugged her shoulders and felt helpless.
Nicole sent her to the door and said," Yvette is arriving the day after tomorrow. Let's go pick her up together?"
"Sure. Contact me then."
Nicole waved her hand. Julie's car was parked not far away.
Thus, Nicole did not wait for Julie and turned around to go back to her private room.
It was quiet inside besides the gurgling sound of water.
Clayton?"
"Hubby?"
No one answered, so Nicole thought that she came to the wrong room.
