Ingrid Ferguson finally left the jewelry
store in shame and anger. Yvette
hurriedly took the card over and looked at
it left and right. She said in surprise, “How
did you get this card?”
Nicole pursed her lips and said, “My third
brother gave it to me on my 18th
birthday. He told me to bring it wherever I
go. I didn’t expect it to come in handy!”
“Why didn’t God give me a ‘Third Brother

can you please attend in my stead?”
Nicole looked at the time. “Alright, I have
time anyway.”
“Thanks, love! I’ll get him to bring you a

dress. He’ll be there soon.”
After she hung up, Nicole raised her
eyebrows. ‘How is Jules so sure that I’d
attend?
Nicole informed Logan of her last-minute
schedule and went downstairs to wait for
the guy. Roman was a model and was
relatively reputable. If people in the
company saw her, they would inevitably
start gossiping again.
