After hanging up the phone, Kai looked at Eric with a hostile gaze.“What are you doing here? No one’s here to help you now!”Before this, Eric relied on his army buddies to carry Kai, who refused to budge, out of the way. It was simply bullying, and Kai felt humiliated.Eric’s gaze was dark. “I’ll contact my friend who’s a psychiatrist.”The psychiatrist who Eric recommended was probably great, but Kai immediately refused.“No need for that. Grant will get it sorted, so you don’t need to worry about it.”Eric wanted to say something else, but Maverick also agreed with Kai and politely refused Eric’s offer.After all, a psychiatrist would get into one’s privacy and weaknesses, and Nicole must not want her weaknesses to be seen by Eric or his friends.Late at night.Kai was resting on the sofa outside Nicole’s room.Eric sat by Nicole’s bed and quietly looked at her face that kept changing in her sleep, which was sometimes nervous, scared, or calm.He did not feel sleepy at a
This social media account had a very high following. That was because Nathaniel’s identity was special, and his handsome features made him a true homme fatale.The most important thing was that this account never posted any fake videos. The shooting process was thrilling, real, and always surprising.Nathaniel had not updated his work for nearly a month, so everyone was worried for his safety. Unexpectedly, he released his latest work online.In just a few minutes, it caused a huge sensation.Nathaniel was in a primitive tribe on the Atlantic Island. More importantly, Nicole appeared to be on the adventure with Nathaniel.The woman whom everyone thought had died in the plane crash actually came back to life!Nicole’s rate of appearance in the video was not high, but the most exciting part of the video was on that rainy night when the indigenous people were chasing them.Nathaniel had strapped the camera to his body, so he did not appear in many of the shots.The pair ran for th
Hearing those voices, Nicole frowned slightly. “That sounds like Yvette…”Kai was doubtful. “Really?”He then stood up and went outside. When he came back, he brought Yvette, Julie, and Ian with him.The three of them were all red-eyed. Yvette jumped over as soon as she saw Nicole. “Lil N!”Julie also wanted to jump at Nicole, but Kai grabbed her clothes to stop her.“One by one! Don’t touch my sister’s wounds!”Julie immediately stopped fighting him. The worry in her eyes was unconcealed. “You’re injured?!”Nicole patted Yvette’s back and looked at Julie with a smile. “I’m fine now, mostly recovered!”Ian Carter, who was standing on the side, looked so disheveled, thin, and drained. He even had stubble all over his jaw from not having shaved for days.Seeing that Nicole was fine, Ian kneeled on one knee in front of Nicole’s hospital bed and started to sob. Yvette, who was also choking back sobs, was speechless.Julie was too shocked to say anything. Suddenly, the somew
In a few days, the online discussion was getting more and more intense. The number of views and comments was soaring, and this video spread like wildfire.Nicole was almost fully recovered and was ready to leave the hospital. Under layers of coverings and disguise, she was still recognized as soon as she went out.Numerous microphones and reporters swarmed over to Nicole.“Ms. Stanton, are all of those experiences real?”“Ms. Stanton, is there anything you want to say after surviving this ordeal?”“Do you think that this plane crash was an accident?”“Are you planning to take your relationship with Nathaniel Ferguson further?”......Countless reporters blocked the entrance of the hospital with their cameras flashing.The bodyguards formed a protective circle around them, shielding Nicole and Kai in the center.The crowd was overwhelming, and Kai was getting slightly impatient with all these reporters. Having lived in the spotlight for so long, Kai knew that these people woul
Mitchell followed Eric from behind, carrying his suitcase. He looked at his boss’ despondent and cold figure and could not help but remind him in trepidation.“President, Lee’s phone…”Lee, the driver following behind them, watched in trepidation as his few-hundred-dollar phone was almost crushed in Eric’s hand.Mitchell was familiar with Nicole’s number, so Eric found a random number to call her.After all, Eric had saved her, so something should have changed between them.Who knew that once Nicole heard his name, she would hang up the phone without hesitation?Eric’s face was glum as he deleted the call record and threw the phone back to Mitchell. Eric had such an unapproachable aura about him.Mitchell gave the phone back to the driver, Lee, then quickly caught up to Eric.“President, the famous painter Mr. Wilheim invited you to attend the soft opening of his fine art exhibition restaurant this evening…”Stanton Mansion.Nicole hummed a tune while picking out an outfit fo
Nicole’s body instinctively stiffened for a moment. It was too late to avoid him.Eric Ferguson had already walked in front of her with big strides.He took out the photo from his pocket. His brow was slightly furrowed as he stared intently at the painting on the wall.It was exactly the same.His face was pale. “How did…”Mr. Wilheim glanced at the photo in Eric’s hand and said in a nonchalant voice, “Oh, so it was you who stole my photo...”Eric’s face was sullen. He swept a glance at Nicole, but she deliberately did not look at him.Nicole’s light makeup was exquisite. Her long pink dress outlined her perfect figure in all the right places and made her look so stunning. She did not look as cold as usual, but softer. She was so beautiful that he could not take his eyes off her.Eric’s gaze darkened slightly. “Mr. Wilheim, this photo…”“Yup, I took this photo. This girl dragged you out of that place while I was drinking coffee across the street. This is one of my most satisfy
Nathaniel subconsciously took a step back. He still did not have the guts to go against Eric.Even so, he braced himself and said, “She... She willingly said so! Uncle Eric, you can’t just separate lovebirds…”As soon as he said that, Nathaniel’s entire body was picked up and shoved against the wall. His scalp was tingling, and his back was in severe pain.As an explorer, Nathaniel had a much better physique than the average person, but in the face of Eric Ferguson, he simply became a weak little boy who could not fight back.His dignity was trampled under Eric’s feet!Eric glared at him coldly without the slightest regard for kinship. His actions were firm and ruthless.“Nathaniel Ferguson, if you have a death wish, just say so. I’ll gladly grant it…”Mitchell hurriedly stepped forward. “President, there’s still room for discussion. Young Master Nathaniel is just joking! How could Ms. Stanton be attracted to him?”Nathaniel was talked down to, but there was still defiance in h
Nicole raised an eyebrow and watched as Nathaniel got out of the car looking like he was accepting a death sentence with open arms.Nathan walked over to Eric’s low-profile and expensive Cayenne that he drove today. The collision caused quite a lot of damage.On the contrary, his Jeep Grand Cherokee was unharmed in the slightest.However, Nathaniel had not figured out how exactly they collided in the first place.In this scenario, Nathaniel did look like the guilty party...Usually, this kind of issue could be settled with some money, but since the other party was Eric Ferguson, this would not be an easy feat.Eric’s dark eyes stared at Nathaniel. He said with a compelling chill in his voice, “Should we go by proceedings or settle this privately?”Nathaniel pursed his lips. ‘Do I even have a choice?’ “P-Proceedings…”Eric’s gaze was indifferent as he took out his phone. “Then I’ll get your father.”Nathaniel’s expression stiffened. He quickly stopped Eric. “Don’t! Uncle Eric
