Chapter 116

At the same time, the photos from Stanton
Corporation’s anniversary gala had already
set off shocking waves on the Internet.
The picture of Nicole on the digital
signboard atop the Pearl Tower across the
river was the most direct way to announce
her identity.
[0MG, this is legendary! A billionaire
heiress hides her own identity to marry a
guy below her status and reveals herself to
be the richest young woman after their
divorce?!

This plot is like a TV show!]
[The Ferguson family is horrendous! They
think Nicole’s easy to bully and even hired
keyboard warriors to insult her… Don’t they
feel ashamed for treating a lady like that?]
[Nicole’s comeback is awesome!]
[Yasss kween! Nicole, you rock! I love you
[I passed by a dozen intersections earlier
and saw Nicole’s picture plastered on every building. She hands down beat all those
actresses that wanted to fight for those
advertising spaces. I’m witnessing history
in the making!]
[Nicole is @RichBaby?! Her nickname is too
straightforward, right? Why is she so cute?!]



Inside the banquet hall, Nicole’s act of
squandering $800 million did not cause the
crowd’s antipathy. Instead, they all felt
touched that Nicole truly cared for every
employee in her company.

After everyone marveled at her generosity,

Nicole carelessly swept her gaze to Old
Master Ferguson with a light mockery in
her pretty eyes.
‘Besides that, when I was at a charity
auction earlier this month, I bought an
emerald pipe from Mrs. Ferguson…”
Nicole paused and watched as Old Master
Ferguson’s expression turned into panic,
then continued to speak slowly, *Chairman
Ferguson, I’ve decided…-
‘Wait!’ Old Master Ferguson could not bear

it any longer and stepped forward, interrupting her words. He could tolerate that Nicole hid her identity,
deceived them, and made his family a laughing stock, but the emerald pipe absolutely could not fall into
the hands of others! `Nicole, you know that the emerald pipe is my family heirloom. Now, I’m willing to
buy it back from you at ten times the price.

Consider the extra money as compensation for you from our family.’ The first to speak always had the
upper hand. Old Master Ferguson thought that Nicole was still a little too inexperienced to go up against
an old-timer like him. Nicole spent $30 million to buy that emerald pipe. Now that it had inflated to $300
million, it was simply more than anyone could ask for.





Although this was a pretty sizable amount for many, for Nicole Stanton, this was equivalent to a slap in
the face.

Feeling the tense atmosphere between
Nicole and Old Master Ferguson, everyone’s
eyes fell on Nicole.



Her smile was bright and stunning, and her eyes glittered like the stars. She spoke unhurriedly,
“Chairman Ferguson, I’m so rich and certainly don’t need that petty cash from you… The emerald pipe’s
value can no longer be quantified by money. Since it’s of such significant historic value, I’ve decided to
donate this artifact, free of charge, to the National Museum.”



Nicole beamed and tilted her head to the side, then extended her arm to invite the person standing there.
“This is the Director of the National Museum. All of you here play witness to this moment in history in
which this emerald pipe finds its most fitting home in the museum for all those who love and respect
history. In the future, everyone can share the story of this emerald pipe and I think this is much more
valuable than it will be in the hands of Chairman Ferguson alone.

Hence, Chairman Ferguson will certainly support my thoughtful decision.’ The man who came over to
Nicole on stage

looked mature and respectable. He brought
over two of his subordinates and gave a
simple speech of gratitude. Then, in the



presence of the guests, the man took the box containing the emerald pipe from Nicole’s hands and left
with it. Floyd Stanton looked at his daughter and felt very pleased with her performance. He came on
stage to say a few more words and gave everyone the green light to mingle

around as they wished. As for the Ferguson family, Floyd Stanton would not let them get away so
easily… At this time, Old Master Ferguson’s face flushed red with anger. He was so vexed that he could
not even speak. Nicole had defeated him using her own means and had completely put an end to Old
Master Ferguson’s plans of getting back his emerald pipe.

If she had sold it to other people, the Fergusons would still be able to buy it back because they were
willing to pay any price for it. On the contrary, Nicole had made this an unexpected move to donate the
emerald pipe to the National Museum, and more importantly, with so many influential



Even if Old Master Ferguson had the ability, he would not dare to take from the museum! Undoubtedly,
he had utterly lost this game! “Let’s go!” Old Master Ferguson turned around and left. He could not care
less about pleasantries and did not want to stay here for another moment. “Chairman Ferguson, a
minute please!” Floyd Stanton slowly walked over with Nicole. Both of them were smiling very cheerfully.
