For a while, Eric did not know what to say to get out of this awkward situation.Obviously, Eric was the one who wanted to eat with Nicole and the kids in the first place.In the end, Nicole and the kids only invited Chance, that little brat!Chance looked at Chatty, who took the initiative to invite him, and felt the gloom in his heart disappear.He nodded happily.Then, he cautiously looked at Eric and mustered up the courage to say, “Daddy, I’ll follow Chatty then. Goodbye!”After that, Chance held hands with Chatty and went to chase Nicole and Fischer.Fischer was displeased to see Chance.His dislike for Chance was so obvious.Nicole did not arrange a proper dinner at first. There was a very distinctive street nearby that was very similar to Chinatown, so she planned to go there for a stroll.Chance was so happy that he could not hide his smile, and Nicole felt a little sorry for him when she saw this.Nicole did not have an opinion on Chance.Although Chance’s mother
This hiding figure was captured by another man.Eric squinted his eyes and saw the man that was hiding in the shadows not far away.The man bent his body and looked sneaky, but his eyes were staring in Nicole’s direction.Obviously, this man had bad intentions.Eric immediately became alert.He could not let Nicole be in harm’s way.Eric took out his phone and asked his bodyguards to rush over.Then, he strode over to Nicole.Nicole squinted lazily and looked at the beautiful scenery when someone suddenly appeared in her sight.She frowned and looked annoyed.Why was this man haunting her? Did he really not understand what she meant when she rejected him?“You…”Nicole was about to curse at him, but Eric pulled her up and walked toward the center of the street.Eric carried Chatty, who was playing happily, and looked at the other two boys. He said in a serious tone, “Stop playing. We have to go back now because there’s danger here."Nicole was startled and looked around w
Nicole did not know why she had such a big reaction to a back figure.However, she had an intuition that she would regret it if she did not stop him.The car braked suddenly.Nicole pushed the door open, got out of the car, and looked back in the opposite direction. At this time, that man had already disappeared.That limping figure left so quickly.Nicole felt an inexplicable sense of loss in her heart.It was as if she was stripped of something important.However, she could not understand what this feeling was.“Miss, what’s the matter?”Luca got out of the car and looked around vigilantly. He thought that something happened!Nicole looked at the empty street. Her eyes flickered slightly, and she shook her head.“It’s nothing.”Her voice was low, and she sounded so lonely.Was it her illusion?For a moment, Nicole felt that the limping figure looked like Clayton.However, Clayton was someone who cared most about his appearance and had never looked so wretched.Nicole
If Nicole knew this would happen, she would probably still choose to be with Clayton.She had never regretted her decision to be with Clayton back then.On the contrary, she regretted her three years of marriage with Eric countless times.However, she was never sad every minute she was with Clayton.All he brought her was endless joy and happiness, and she had long been addicted to it.She re-edited that sentence.[If I’d known this would happen, I would’ve been with you sooner…]After the message was sent successfully, she slowly breathed a sigh of relief.It was as if a burden had been lifted.She found an answer for herself.It was just too bad that he could not see it.Nicole did not fix his phone and only left it in the Stanton Mansion, so no one would receive her messages.However, she knew that someone would know her secret.Nicole lay on the bed with her eyes open. She looked stunning and fragile, like a flower that was about to wither.At the same time, Eric list
The man on the side also stood up and shook Nicole’s hand.It turned out that Fischer’s parents shared the same last name, which was a coincidence.Nicole shook his hands with a smile and looked around.“Where’s Fischer? He misses you two very much, so why isn’t he here?Camille and Leighton looked at each other. Camille curled her lips and said, “Last time, we had something urgent to do, so we sent him back. He’s mad at us because of that and refuses to see us this time.”Nicole paused and smiled.“Don’t worry. He’ll be here in a while. He’s a sensible child.”Camille smiled and looked at Nicole with sincerity and gratitude.“I heard from my father that your family took really good care of Fischer during this time. I really don’t know how to thank you all. We’re really too busy, and because of what happened last time, my dad scolded us and insisted that we spend a day with our kid. I discussed it with Leighton and finally managed to squeeze out some time today. We want to acco
Nicole thanked Camille again and sighed in her heart.This was probably Chatty’s first blow.They sent Fischer and his parents away, then Chatty turned around and ran away.She was afraid that Nicole would give her the book she was holding.Nicole was speechless.Logan smiled at the side. “President, why don’t you leave Chatty to me?”Nicole raised her eyebrows.“Forget it. I’ll bring her with me. She’s not so young that she can’t control her emotions. It’s also good for her to get more exposure and get to know more people so that she won’t be shy when she goes to kindergarten.Logan laughed. “Chatty even beats people up, so how could she be shy?”Nicole glared at him.Logan shut up immediately.“Right. You’re more thoughtful. I’ll get someone to prepare Chatty’s clothes right away.”He quickly fled the scene.Nicole looked away, put the book on the table, and went to the dining hall.Roland came back looking tired and listless. There was something indescribably off about
The butler was attentive enough to notice Nicole’s reaction and hastily pressed a few buttons on the elevator.The outside of the elevator instantly turned into a desert.There was even an oasis in the desert. Nicole could see the wind blowing up the sand and dust, and the oncoming heat created the illusion of a real desert. She was slightly startled by this, so much so that she forgot about her fear just now.Nicole raised her eyebrows in shock. “So, we’re not at the bottom of the sea?”Even the scene where they were at the bottom of the sea turned out to be fake, but she could not tell the difference.She had to admit that she did not expect such advanced technology on this cruise ship.However, she felt much better facing the desert.The butler smiled and said, “We are at the bottom of the sea. We shot high-definition videos through a private submarine so that our guests can see scenes that can’t be seen on the shore. It was arranged to prevent guests from getting bored when
Nicole was stunned. Her smile froze on her face.It felt like someone triggered something in her heart.“Really?”Nicole did not hear Clayton mention Zuthi before, so she was not familiar with him.However, judging by Zuthi’s behavior, Nicole thought that he seemed to be very familiar with Clayton. His overly-friendly character was not annoying after all.Now, few people dared to mention Clayton in front of Nicole.Thus, Nicole’s attitude toward Zuthi eased a little.Zuthi sat on the side and said, “Of course! But he doesn’t go there very often anymore. I still miss those times when he was around. By the way, do you know how I got to know you?”Nicole shook her head.“You know Samuel Lindstrom, right? Back then when the Lindstrom family invested in the oil industry in South Africa, they took my shares. Later, when he got into an accident, the Lindstrom family withdrew their shares, so I became the main shareholder.”Zuthi told her about such private business matters to her wi
