Chapter 464 Inordinate Ambition


    Old Master Ferguson said, "Don''t waste your efforts on Nicole anymore. She has scandals with male


    celebrities left and right, and now even a scandal with yton Sloan. Which family can ept such a


    woman that has more scandals than you? If she really marries into our family, how can we still


    Eric’s gaze swept over Ivy Harrison, who was standing obediently at the side. The cold light in his eyes


    pierced her like a knife.


    Ivy was nervous and did not know what she had done wrong.


    She wanted to take a closer look at his eyes, but he had already shifted his gaze.


    Was it disappointment or joy?


    Eric''s thin lips were pursed. Hisplexion was dark and unsightly.


    "If you want a marriage alliance, you can marry her yourself. Nicole is my only choice.” 1


    After that, Eric hung up the phone. His body was exuding a dense chill.


    The surrounding people who wanted to exchange pleasantries with Eric dared not approach him.


    Seeing that he hung up the phone, Ivy Harrison came over again. She carefully examined his face and


    said i n a soft voice, "Mr. Ferguson, would you like something to drink?"


    Eric nced at her. His thin lips parted slightly, and his voice was extremely cold.


    "Go and tell Eli Harrison not to count on me."


    Ivy froze for a moment and blinked. "I-I don’t understand what you mean."


    Eric raised his head and met her eyes. The coldness in his eyes was so powerful and shocking that it


    startled Ivy.


    "Inordinate ambition."


    That was all he said to her.


    In one fell swoop, Eric saw through Ivy Harrison''s little thoughts.


    She felt like she was pped in the face because her cheeks burned, yet there was nowhere to


    escape.


    To Ivy, Eric was her inordinate ambition.


    Her eyes instantly reddened as tears umted. She turned around and ran away.


    The surrounding peoplemented when they saw this scene. Initially, they sympathized with Nicole, but


    now, they sympathized with that innocent girl.


    Nicole simply did not pay attention to Eric''s movements. She sat with yton for a while and went


    around to socialize with others.


    Everyone there was acquaintances, so it was not awkward.


    After having some wine, Nicole felt a little warm and wanted to get some fresh air.


    She smiled and looked at yton. "I''m going to the bathroom. Be right back."


    yton nodded like a gentleman and led her to one end of the promenade as he pointed to the other

    end.


    "It''s right at the end."


    "Thanks.”


    Nicole walked over. The marble walls of the long corridor echoed with the crisp sound of her high heels.


    Just as she reached the corner, she heard the sound of a woman sobbing inside.


    "What are you crying for? Eric Ferguson won’t even look at you even when he''s crippled. You''re so


    useless!”


    The shrill female voice was harsh with ridicule and a bit of smugness.


    The person who spoke was none other than Ivy Harrison''s half-sister, Joy Harrison.


    If Joy was not already married, this illegitimate daughter would not even stand a chance to marry Eric


    Ferguson.


    Joy was scolding and humiliating Ivy for being useless, yet she was secretly delighted that Eric


    Ferguson did not fancy Ivy.


    Nicole paused and frowned. Thinking that there was n o way to avoid this, Nicole openly walked to the


    other side of the promenade since there was no reason for her to hide.


    She saw two simr-looking women standing there and was waiting for them to leave after noticing her,


    but they did not.


    Ivy bit her lower lip and sobbed aggrievedly.


    Joy''s arms were folded. She then reached out to pinch Ivy''s waist viciously.


    Ivy did not even dare to flinch. It looked like she was used to being bullied because she did not show


    the slightest intention to fight back.


    They still did not notice Nicole standing there, so Nicole could only helplessly continue to watch the


    show.


    She did not mean to pry.


    "I’ll try my best..."


    Joy sneered. "A vulgar person like you won''t even look elegant in the finest clothes. No wonder Eric


    Ferguson doesn''t even want to look at you. You should take a look in the mirror. A shameless


    homewrecker''s daughter like you doesn''t even deserve to have a day i n the sun if not for the Harrison


    blood that flows in your veins."
