Chapter 358

A Different Bride

Nicole partied with them until past 1:00 am and won many rounds of poker.

Although Nicole could see that everyone was intentionally letting her win, she still could not resist the itch
to play one round after another.



Finally, Nicole only stopped after seeing Mikayla’s dark eye circles and pitiful eyes from losing so much.

The next day, Nicole slept until mid-morning. She was smart to shut Tigger out the door last night so no
one would bother her.



The sun lazily crept onto her face, but Nicole just turned around and continued to sleep.



Suddenly, her phone rang.

‘Damn it, I forgot to mute it!’



The ringing was incessant, so Nicole picked it up irritably. When she saw the caller ID, she was even
more speechless.

“Yvette Quimbey, do you have something against me that you won’t let me sleep in peace?!”

Yvette was stunned for a few seconds, then laughed out loud.



“Do you know what you’ve missed while you slept?”

“What?”

“Colton’s wedding! It’s a different bride!”

Nicole was dumbstruck by this news,

She paused for a moment. “Huh?”

“I heard that Colton’s fiancée’s ex-boyfriend showed up at their bachelor party last night. I don’t know
what he said, but Colton dragged his fiancée to the hospital, and they found out that she wasn’t even
pregnant!”

Yvette just kept pouring the tea, so much so that Nicole could hardly catch up.

“Colton’s bride is now this rich girl from a neighboring city who chased him for a long time. She’s from an
academic family and isn’t as rich as the Whites, but she’s certainly a lot better than the previous one.”

Nicole’s drowsiness faded. Yvette still did not know that Nicole was the one who was with that ex-
boyfriend last night.

She did not expect that this would stir up so much drama.

Nicole thought that once Colton found out, he would at most cancel the wedding.

She never thought that Melanie was faking the pregnancy and that Colton would just change his bride
overnight.

It seemed that Colton really did not want to forgive Melanie.

Nicole pursed her lips. “How is that new bride even willing to marry him?”



Yvette spoke insouciantly, “How’s she not willing? I heard that she was the one who approached Colton,
and he agreed. The White family won’t be able to find another girl in our circle that will willingly marry
their son. Who doesn’t know what a sh*thead Colton is? No one will put their daughter through this
mess.”

Nicole was silent for a while. ‘That’s true…

After chatting with Yvette for a few minutes, Nicole lazily got out of bed.

It was almost noon. Nicole intended to have lunch nearby the office before heading to work to ask Logan
about the progress of Clayton Sloan’s investigation. When she was halfway there, she received a call
from Logan saying that Clayton Sloan actually shown up at the

University of Atlanta.

Without further ado, Nicole hurriedly drove towards the university.

Everyone was talking about this big shot, so after a casual inquiry, Nicole found out that he was giving a
speech to the students.

She hurried to the auditorium but was dumbfounded as soon as she entered the door.

The auditorium was so packed that all the seats were filled. There were even some people standing at
the back.

It seemed that everyone was very curious about this Wall Street bigwig Clayton Sloan that they wanted
to see what he looked like.

Nicole stood there looking torn. She did not know whether to go in or not and was very hesitant to squat
at the door. Suddenly, someone beckoned towards



her with a clear and mellow voice.

“Nicole, come here…”

Nicole looked up and saw Eric Ferguson sitting in the middle of the first row, wearing an expensive
custom-made suit and a watch worth several houses on his wrist. He was surrounded by such a noble
and confident air that he seemed so out of place in this crowded auditorium.

There was an empty seat next to him, but no one dared to sit.

It felt blasphemous for anyone to approach him.

Nicole was surprised for a moment and hesitated for two seconds before she walked over. Compared to
her hatred for him, making money was certainly the priority.

No matter what, Nicole would not disregard a chance to earn big bucks.

“Why are you here?”

Nicole asked in a tone that was not very kind and gentle.
