Sebastian did not rush to agree and just nodded with a smile. He looked at the others and said, “Shall we move on to the next person? After everyone is done, we can talk about cooperation.”Everyone’s expressions changed from doubt to expectation.Out of all the guests, Nicole and Eric were the only ones who did not experience it.Nicole was not interested, and Eric was not bothered to try.They did not notice that Jeff’s face paled when someone helped him down from that wall.However, he subconsciously raised his head to look in Nicole and Eric’s direction.The emotions in his dark eyes were restrained and forbearing.Jeff was in a tangle.“Your internal organs have been damaged to varying degrees, and both your legs are fractured. Although you’ve been rescued, it’s recommended to amputate your lower legs. Otherwise, necrosis will occur. We will provide you with the best treatment plan. If you’re willing to use our customized organs, your new legs will grow from the incision o
Yasmin stood there with a pale face and took a step back, looking fragile.Fear and pain were written all over her face.Yasmin had always felt that these experiments were cruel.However, she had been brainwashed by Sebastian, so she felt that these sacrifices were worth it.Yasmin did not expect Eric to accuse her so bluntly, that her resurrection was a mistake.She instantly felt hurt.Nicole pursed her lips and looked at Eric.“Mr. Ferguson, will you stop projecting your hatred for Angie onto other people? Look at her closely. She’s not Angie.”Eric was speechless for a moment. His face was glum as he looked away.Nicole looked at Yasmin and smiled.“Sorry, Yasmin. No one has the right to say that your existence is a mistake, and neither can he. Please don’t take it to heart. You should go in first.”Nicole looked inside and saw that Sebastian seemed to be looking for Yasmin.Yasmin nodded weakly. She did not dare to look at Eric, turned around, and ran away.Nicole too
No matter what Roland said, Chatty refused to leave Jeff’s side.Roland helplessly wiped the sweat from his forehead.Chatty pouted, cried, and wiped her tears. She looked very pitiful.“Daddy, tell Uncle Roland to go away! I don’t want him to follow me anymore.”Roland looked like he was in a dilemma.Chatty was too young to accept Clayton’s death, so Nicole hid the news from her.The people around Chatty would not reveal this news to her.However, how could this disabled person in front of him who was sitting in a wheelchair be the same person as the high-spirited Clayton back then?Roland paused and looked at Jeff apologetically.“I’m really sorry, sir. The Young Miss has recognized the wrong person. Please don’t take any offense. I’ll get Ms. Stanton to come immediately.”Roland took out his phone in a panic.He was just about to call Nicole and ask her to come and resolve this problem when the man in the wheelchair spoke in a hoarse voice.“It’s okay. This kid is cute.
Roland agreed with what Jeff said.Not to mention that no one in the Stanton family dared to reprimand Nicole’s daughter, even those who cooperated with Stanton Corporation or Sloan Corporation did not dare to criticize Nicole’s precious daughter.Moreover, Chatty was Clayton’s darling daughter.Eric was too senseless to say that.He and Nicole were not even together, but Eric had prematurely gotten into the “stepfather” character.Roland really regretted not taking Chatty away earlier.It was so unfortunate that they met Eric.However, when Eric heard Jeff’s words, his expression turned cold instantly.“Are you lecturing me?”“I’m correcting your thoughts. Not to mention, she’s such a well-behaved and sensible child. Mr. Ferguson, you’ll only scare her.”Jeff held Chatty in his arms. They looked so close as if they were really father and daughter.This deeply hurt Eric’s heart.Chance was as timid as a mouse and did not dare to get close to him. He did not care about Angie
Eric was livid, and his face was as cold as ice.He was even cold toward Kai.It turned out that Nicole and Chatty were not the only ones in the Stanton family who were deceiving themselves.The others were too!How ridiculous!“Mr. Stanton, did I say something wrong? Fine, let’s put this matter aside. I’m just afraid that a stranger will hurt her, so shouldn’t I help her?”Eric’s tone was cold and rigid as he restrained the anger in his heart.Kai frowned and glanced at the person in the wheelchair with a flash of sympathy.However, he did not pay too much attention to him and only glanced at Roland.“Someone’s with Chatty, so you’re a bit too concerned, Mr. Ferguson.”Roland quickly said, “Yes, I’ve been with the Young Miss. She recognized the wrong person and insisted on being with this gentleman. This gentleman didn’t do anything and only wanted to coax the Young Miss…”Eric’s eyes were stern as he glanced at Roland unkindly.Kai nodded with understanding. His eyes flic
Roland subconsciously looked down.Sure enough, it was Chatty’s shiny and invaluable diamond hairpin.“Thank you. This is the Young Miss’s favorite hairpin recently.”He quickly squatted down to pick it up.He could not afford to lose it!At the same time, Jeff controlled the wheelchair and went back to his room.The moment Roland picked up the hairpin, he suddenly froze.It was as if someone hit him on the head with a bat. The feeling of dizziness enveloped him instantly.What did Jeff call him just now?Roland?However, Roland had never seen this person before. He only knew of Jeff’s identity when Eric mentioned it earlier.How did Jeff know Roland’s name?Most importantly, how did he know that Roland was an assistant?Roland had been playing with Chatty since he boarded the cruise ship, and his identity had never been revealed to anyone.This person...Roland fell silent for a moment.However, the wheelchair disappeared from sight.Roland panicked.He intended to l
“What?”Kai was shocked.“I don’t have a room for you in this suite. You can ask the butler to get a room for you.”Kai stretched out his hand helplessly.“I don’t have an invitation, so I won’t be able to get a room upstairs. I don’t want to stay downstairs because there are too many people. Also, I have to protect you and Chatty. What if bad guys break-in in the middle of the night and hurt you two?”He had such a high-sounding excuse.Nicole laughed with glimmering eyes.“Third Brother, I really admire your thick-skinned personality!”Kai rolled his eyes. “I’ll stay with Chatty then. She’s still young anyway, so she can sleep in a crib. I’ll sleep on her big bed!”As he said that, he was about to occupy Chatty’s room.Nicole was helpless. “Nevermind. You can go to the guest room. I’m trying to get her to cultivate a habit of sleeping independently, so I won’t let you ruin her progress.”Kai smiled triumphantly.“Okay!”He was satisfied and went to tidy up his room.Eve
It seemed like Jeff would disappear when the huge waves hit.For some reason, Nicole encountered him quite frequently lately. However, considering the size of the cruise ship, this was unavoidable.When they returned to Mediania, they probably would not have the chance to meet again.Nicole did not want to disturb Jeff’s alone time because it seemed a little abrupt.After all, they were not familiar with each other even though her heart was moved because of the sense of familiarity he gave her.At that thought, Nicole planned to turn around and leave, but the person sitting there suddenly turned back.He probably heard her.Jeff still wore a mask and a hat. He was shrouded in gloom.It was as if he had wrapped himself in a thick cocoon so that no one could walk in.When he saw Nicole, he was a little surprised, and he froze slightly.Nicole pursed her lips and smiled shyly.“Sorry, I didn’t know anyone was here.”Jeff nodded lightly. His voice was a little hoarse, and he so
