Chapter 2206 Uninvited Guest
Coincidentally, Mr. Anderson was downstairs talking to someone.
When he saw Nicoleing downstairs, he quickly greeted her.
“Miss,e and have brunch!”
Nicole smiled. “I won’t eat. I still have work to do at the office.”
Floyd came in with a bucket and looked like he just came back from fishing.
“Don’t worry about the office. Go after you have a meal. Anyway, you’re alreadyte, and your brother
already called me.”
Nicole opened her mouth guilty and scratched her head.
“Well… He can’t me me. My phone ran out of batteryst night, and no one woke me up this
morning.”
The butler smiled.
“The Chairman didn’t want us to wake you up. You worked so hard yesterday, and the Eldest Young
Master came back earlyst night. How could he understand your hard work?”
Nicole immediately forgave herself when she heard the butler’s words.
“You’re right!”
Seeing that the dining table was full of her favorite food, Nicole was not in a hurry to leave. She put her
bag aside and went to eat.
“Fischer and Chatty went to school?”
Floyd nodded. “I asked Kai to send them. I heard that they were bullied by their ssmates in school
yesterday?”
Afterward, Floyd pursed his lips solemnly.
“It looks like I have to meet those parents in the next few days.”
Floyd wanted to lecture the kids on how to care for their fellow ssmates!
Nicole paused. Before she could swallow a mouthful of seafood chowder, she looked at Floyd
hesitantly.
“Dad, forget it!”
Nicole did not know who he heard this from.
She felt like his news was not very urate.
Floyd frowned and resolutely refused.
“I can’t just forget it! How can I let them go when they bully my grandchildren?! If it’s Fischer, then
whatever. But Chatty is such a cute and weak little two-year-old who can’t even lift her arms. She’s
shorter, thinner, and more beautiful than the rest of the students. I refuse to let her experience school
violence at such a young age. I must talk to their parents!”
Floyd was already anxious about Chatty’s early childhood.
Nicole paused and finished her meal in a few bites.
“Well… Dad, no one bullied Chatty… She was the one who beat up the other kids…”
Floyd’s eyes widened in an instant. He was so shocked that he did not believe Nicole at all.
“What? Impossible! She’s so young, and she’s a head shorter than Fischer!”
Nicole also could not believe that what she said was true.
She sighed.
“It’s true. I went to school yesterday and saw footage of her beating up six ssmates by herself. One
of them was badly injured, so you shouldn’t get involved. By the way, don’t let anyone teach her
Taekwondo for the time being!”
Floyd paused awkwardly and averted his eyes.
“Umm… Fischer wanted to learn, so Chatty just tagged along. It’s okay, this is just child’s y. I’ll teach
her not to do this again. If you’re done eating, you should head to the office!”
Nicole nodded.
Even if they did not hire a teacher for Chatty, Nicole would still want Chatty to know how to fight
because girls should learn some self-defense skills.
However, Chatty was so strong at such a young age. So, it seemed that it was still a little too early to
teach her.
…...
Stanton Corporation.
As soon as Nicole went to the office, Logan hurried over to her.
“President, you’re finally here!”
Nicole nced at him. “I don’t think my brother will leave this mess for me.”
Logan replied, “Oh, that meeting has been postponed to the afternoon. I’ve already arranged
everything for you!”
Nicole was speechless.
Logan watched her push the door in and suddenly thought of something.
“President, Mr. Sloan’s assistant andwyer came. They said they had to meet you for something
important. Do you…”
Nicole pursed her lips. “Let them in.”
It was inevitable that yton’s affairs would go through her hands.
Now that Nicole decided to live a good life, she could not avoid hearing his name.
She had to face what was toe.
After a while, yton’s assistant, Rnd, knocked on the door and came in. He just looked a little
solemn.
Behind him was an older man. Judging by his clothes, Nicole assumed he was thewyer.
“Madam, sorry to bother you.”
Rnd paused.
Nicole pursed her lips. “No worries, please take a seat.”
Rnd stretched out his hand and told thewyer to sit down first.
Thewyer looked very respectful and polite.
"Madam, this is Mr. Sloan’swyer. He’s Mr. Sloan’s most trusted person both abroad and in Mediania.”
Nicole nodded and briefly shook hands with him in greeting.
She could vaguely guess thewyer’s intention ofing here.
However, yton had too many assets, so he should have his own arrangements.
Rnd paused and remained silent for a few seconds before he said, “Madam, I’ve learned about Mr.
Sloan’s situation through others, but I was concerned about your feelings, so I didn’t find you
immediately. Please forgive me for that.”
Nicole nodded.
Rnd nced at thewyer and said, “We didn’t know that the earthquake would strike at that
moment, and we were caught off guard. Under normal circumstances, we should at least see through
Mr. Sloan’s funeral before we deal with his affairs. But at present, the relevant authorities informed us
that Mr. Sloan’s body was most likely swept away by the river, so the hope of finding him would be very
slim. Moreover, Mr. Sloan hasn’t shown up to this day. There are many discussions outside, so I would
like to ask your opinion if his will could be officially made public?”
Nicole’s eyshes trembled slightly, and she subconsciously raised her eyes.
“A will?”
Rnd nced at thewyer beside him.
Thewyer nodded.
“Mr. Sloan amended his will when he married you. All the assets in his name, including movable
property and real estate, will automatically be transferred to your name in the event of his death. You
are his only legal beneficiary.”
Nicole listened to every word he said and felt as if something was stabbing her in the heart.
The sharp and stinging pain was indescribable and extremely ufortable.
Her eyes blurred for a moment.
However, Nicole did not want to lose herposure in front of the two of them. She immediately turned
her head to look in the direction of the balcony.
Rnd sighed.
“When he was with you back then, he once asked me to tally his assets and find awyer to make a
will, saying that he wanted to leave you with insurance no matter what happened to him. If he got into
an ident, he wanted me to tell you that he made a lot of money, so you must spend it all in his
stead. Don’t let it go to waste.”
Nicole choked up.
She gently wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.

Why didn’t he ever mention this to her?
Why did he have to make a will at such a young age?
It was because he had a weakness and someone he cared about. That was why he wanted to ensure
her future for the next few decades.
But why did she feel like crying so much?
Nicole would rather not take a penny from him.
Thewyer took out several documents from his bag and put them in front of Nicole.
“Madam, please sign this, and I’ll handle the rest for you.”
