Chapter 114

Once Floyd Stanton’s words fell, the
venue was deadly silent. Everyone was
just so shocked as if a bomb had dropped o
n them from out of nowhere.
At the same time, the congratulatory
words on the huge digital screens on all
the buildings outside that could be seen
from inside the venue were instantly

replaced with Nicole’s picture. Everyone i
n the entire city could see Nicole’s picture
as long as they looked up at those
buildings.
The Stanton family wanted everyone in
the world to know that Nicole Stanton’s
value was unparalleled.
Everyone present looked incredulous,
especially Old Master Ferguson, who was
standing in the forefront. His face was
stiff for a moment with an obscure
astonishment.

Eric Ferguson also stood there shocked
with complex bewilderment.
Ingrid and Quinn Ferguson were not as
calm as the Ferguson men. Quinn broke
the silence in the venue with her tense



and shrill voice as she shouted, ”
Impossible! She’s clearly an orphan with no money and background!”
“Shut up!” Old Master Ferguson rebuked
her with a dark and sullen face.
How could it be fake if Floyd Stanton
admitted it himself to the public?
Floyd Stanton ignored Quinn’s outburst

and continued to drop another bomb on
the crowd. “Now, I’d like to announce
that all of my shares in Stanton
Corporation will be transferred to Nicole
Nicole will become the person in
command of Stanton Corporation and my

designated successor.”
Boom!
In an instant, Nicole’s identity was
completely turned upside down. Not only
was she Floyd Stanton’s daughter, but she
was also the heiress of Stanton
Corporation.

From a woman who was berated and mocked for being a gold digger and wanting to marry into a rich
family, she had sprung to become a true billionaire heiress! Her status was beyond valuable. The venue
was suddenly abuzz, even the media reporters refused to let go of this historic moment. Before everyone
could finish digesting this shocking fact, Grant Stanton, who was on the side, walked up to his father and
nodded.





“Everyone…” The crowd fell silent In an instant. Grant Stanton on was still recognized as the person in
charge of Stanton Corporation. In the industry, his words were p and carried substantial weight. Grant
had a calm and doting smile on his face as he looked at Nicole. “To welcome my sister back home, I will
transfer ten percent of my shares in Stanton Corporation to her. Now, as the largest shareholder owning
71% of Stanton Corporation’s shares, Nicole Stanton will directly assume the position of CEO to Stanton
Corporation from her current position as Vice President.



As her older brother, I will always firmly support any decision Nicole makes. I believe that

everyone, like me, is looking forward to
the future Nicole will lead us into.”
Once Grant Stanton finished his speech,
the crowd felt like another bomb had been
dropped on them. ‘The person in
command of Stanton Corporation
changed just like that? No fighting, no
gossip, no messy disputes…’

Nicole stood on the side looking calm, but she still felt taken aback In her heart. Grant had never
mentioned that he would l giving her a portion of his shares, so t his all seemed too sudden. The entire
Stanton Corporation landed on her rf shoulders just like that. It felt like a mountain of gold landed right in
front of her. It was so huge that she could not even see the top when she looked up.





After the silence, thunderous applause reverberated in the hall. The crowd was cheering for the return of
Nicole Stanton a s well as Grant Stanton’s munificence. When the applause died down, a reporter a t the
venue could not resist asking a question. “Ms. Stanton, how do you feel about the slanderous rumors
about you on the internet? May I ask if your divorce from Mr. Eric Ferguson means a break

between Stanton Corporation and
Ferguson Corporation?”
The reporter seized the moment and did
not want to wait for the press conference
later because he might lose this first
opportunity.

Eric’s dark eyes instantly constricted. He lifted his head and locked his gaze onto the radiant and
healitiftil woman standing on stage. Nicole did not dodge the question and looked at the reporter frankly
with a faint smile. “Please allow me to answer your second question first. Back then, I concealed my
identity to marry Mr. Ferguson, so that marriage was not a business alliance and did not represent
Stanton Corporation’s stance. To be precise, this failed marriage is due to my youthful moment of
impulsiveness. My foolish mistakes of the past are mine to bear alone, and I fully accept the failure of
this marriage. This divorce is for me to move on to the correct path for the future.

As for those slandering rumors…” Nicole disdainfully hooked the corners of her lips as she swept a
glance at Old Master Ferguson and Eric Ferguson. She raised her eyebrows and continued, ” Perhaps if
I had informed them of my real identity sooner, there wouldn’t have been such a farce for the past few
days. I am

Nicole disdainfully hooked the corners of her lips as she swept a glance at Old Master Ferguson and Eric
Ferguson. She raised her eyebrows and continued, ” Perhaps if I had informed them of my real identity
sooner, there wouldn’t have been such a farce for the past few days.



I am eternally grateful that I am Floyd Stanton’s daughter and can have this opportunity to stand here
and clarify everything. Though I can’t say the same if this were to happen to an ordinary person…
