Chapter 293 Who Will Be Interested in You?
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
Chapter 294 Sell It to Him
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
Chapter 295 You Can’t Separate Lovebirds
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
Chapter 296 The Divorced Couple’s Date
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
Chapter 297 I Invested in All of These
Nicole did not get to jump out of the car. She just sat there and cast a sidelong glance at Eric. Her gaze was as cold as the cold wind in the night.‘Remarry him?! Bloody impossible!’Nicole did not like Eric’s proposal, not even as a joke.Eric’s eyes were deep and dark, blending into the night.“Why did you lie to me that it wasn’t you? The woman in the photo is clearly you…”‘Why won’t you admit it? Why won’t you admit that you saved me?’ Eric thought.The moment Eric confirmed that it was Nicole, he felt indescribably relaxed and vaguely happy.Nicole laughed. “So what if it’s me? What can you do with this knowledge?”She had him at a loss.‘Yeah, what could I do...?’At that moment, Eric’s expression was clearly stagnant. The corners of his lips were tightly pressed into a straight line.Eric, who had always been calm and steady, seemed to be on the verge of collapsing.Nicole hooked her lips into a faint smile. Her red lips parted slightly as she said, “Mr. Ferguson,
Chapter 298 Came With the Tickets
Eric walked up to the ticket counter. His outstanding handsome features soon became the focal point. The attendant blushed and recommended him some romantic comedies.He did not care much for it and chose the movie with the closest showtime.When he glanced to the side, he saw the couple next to him holding a large bucket of popcorn and a Coke and frowned slightly.Nicole was bored sitting on the side with her chin propped up on her hand as she scrolled through her phone.She was looking at the group chat messages, where Yvette and Julie were discussing where they should go for a ski trip.Nicole wanted to give some inputs, but if they found out that she was out at the movies with Eric Ferguson, their eyes would probably pop out of their sockets.Next to her, a college-looking guy came over with a shy face.“Excuse me, Miss. May I ask if you’re from U of A? Which department are you in?”Nicole was stunned. ‘Right… U of A is just nearby…’She instantly felt a little giddy with
Chapter 299 Stay Away From Him
Eric looked at Nicole, who was next to him. She was just looking at the big screen with concentration. The curves of her side profile were soft. Her nose bridge was high, and every inch of her skin was flawless.Nicole quietly watched the movie. No matter how shocking or thrilling the sounds and scenes were, she was not the least bit afraid. Rather, she was watching with great interest and would let out a snort from time to time.It was like she was not impressed by this low-budget horror movie and was mocking those ridiculous special effects.She was treating it like comedy.Eric clenched his fists tightly. All those scenarios he had in his head did not happen. The anticipation and fervor in his heart also dissipated with each time she snorted. He looked up and stared grimly at this so-called horror film.He hated it to death.Nicole did not touch the popcorn or Coke the entire time.The couple in front of them were already glued as one as they shared a seat.When the movie
Chapter 300 Of Course, Marriage Is Best
Eric’s eyes had a momentary flash of sharpness, ruthlessness, and firmness, which overwhelmed all other emotions.He was inherently noble, calm, and aloof.The moment Eric let go of Nicole, the butler of the Stanton family happened to walk over.“Miss... Oh, Mr. Ferguson, you’re here too.”Mr. Anderson was surprised. Eric’s face was calm and gentle as if nothing had happened.However, Nicole’s face was not very pleasant. She was somewhat pale and seemed to be angry.Since the relationship between these two was rather special, the butler was especially wary.Looking at the jacket draped over Nicole, Mr. Anderson immediately took out the shawl he prepared and respectfully handed it over.“Miss, the Chairman is waiting for you at home…”Nicole took a deep breath. She pushed Eric’s shoulder and took a step back, then yanked off Eric’s jacket and threw it on him. She then took over the shawl from Mr. Anderson and put it on.Nicole swept a contemptuous look at Eric and left in a
