Chapter 327 You Don’t Have to Participate
Quinn was chided by Old Master Ferguson, so she froze in place.Her status in the family was low, to begin with. Since that incident where she helped Ingrid to steal Old Master Ferguson’s emerald pipe, Quinn had been living in constant fear of getting kicked out of the family.Quinn did not know where Ingrid was sent to, so now, she did not even have a person to talk to.When she was scolded by Old Master Ferguson, Eric just stood by and watched without saying a word. His cold eyes made her feel more uncomfortable.Thus, her hatred for Nicole only deepened.Eric paused and instructed Mitchell, who was standing on the side.“Send Madam back to the villa. There’s no need for her to attend the dinner this evening.”Quinn completely froze in place.Old Master Ferguson also nodded. “That’s good too. We can’t lose this chance to make up with the Stanton family.”They did not ask about Quinn’s opinion at all.Quinn was exasperated by Eric’s attitude. When she left, her face was very
Chapter 328 Get Along Normally
Old Master Ferguson smiled. “We feel bad about how we treated Nicole in the past. If there’s an opportunity, we’ll like to make it up to her.”Floyd waved his hand. “It’s alright, they’re just clueless kids. The past is in the past, and Nicole doesn’t care about it anymore, so we don’t need to take it to heart. Just get along normally.”“Clueless…” Eric repeated in a whisper. His dark eyes flickered slightly, then he curled the corners of his lips. “Yes, we should get along normally.”Eric raised his eyes to look at Nicole and gave her a suggestive smile.Noticing the scorching gaze from across the room, Nicole subconsciously looked up and saw that Eric had been staring at her with smiling, gentle eyes.‘What’s he smiling at?’Nicole choked a little and instantly lost her appetite.She put down the cutlery in her hand and rolled her eyes at him.Somehow, the man opposite her did not get angry. Instead, his smile deepened.Eric saw how vexed and restrained Nicole was and sudden
Chapter 329 They’re the Same Person
Nicole took her phone, looked down at it, and was so furious that she could not speak.Eric unblocked himself on her phone and even changed his name to “Life Saver”.He was really thick-skinned.Was he trying to make her feel bad if she wanted to delete his number?Nicole bit her lower lip, not wanting to talk to him anymore, and turned to leave. Eric followed her without haste. He matched her pace as if he was her shadow.When they reached the entrance of the restaurant, Eric suddenly said, “Nicole, I’ll teach you to swim.”Eric still remembered that after the plane crash, when he could not find her in the vast ocean, Kai told him that she could not swim.On that variety show when Nicole saw that Miles Kavanagh was underwater for too long, that panic and fear Nicole felt were not from her concern for Miles, but because of her phobia of water.How could Nicole, who had always been such a competitive person, not know how to swim?Eric wanted to teach her so that she would be
Chapter 330 That’s Revenge
Three years ago, Eric Ferguson only had eyes for Wendy Quade.Why would he care about what the person he casually saved looked like?Eric simply did not bother.‘So, Nicole can’t swim because she almost drowned?’Eric had a complicated expression. His deep eyes were as dark as ink with a depressing gloom.“I’m sorry…”All those words that he wanted to say only turned into these two simple words.Nicole thought that it was funny and laughed.“You should be sorry. You didn’t think that those fighters would come for revenge after I rescued you from the underground fight club, right? That they’d come to me for vengeance?”This sentence made Eric’s face turn shockingly ugly like he was struck by lightning.He looked at her with intense emotions and grabbed her arm.“What did you say?”‘Why is he so surprised?’Nicole did not understand and laughed nonchalantly. Since it had come to this, it was better to make things clear.It did not matter who saved whom at this point, beca
Chapter 331 I’m Begging You
Nicole was really going crazy. ‘Why is Eric Ferguson pestering me like an annoying fly that can’t be swatted away?!’She wanted to scold him for being unreasonable.Eric held her wrist tightly. His voice was cold and resolute.“Nicole, whether you believe it or not, I really regret it. If... If I can have another chance…”Nicole sharply interrupted him. The pain in her eyes could no longer be suppressed.“Eric Ferguson, I’ve been getting nightmares about those things in the past for all these years. Ever since I met you, I haven’t had a single day of happiness and joy. I don’t regret saving you, but please, I’m begging you to let go of the past and stop talking about it.”Whether or not Eric regretted his past actions were of no help to Nicole’s three years of suffering. It was even a little laughable.Eric’s body stiffened abruptly. He was so shaken by Nicole’s fractured voice and the pain in her eyes that he could not bear to look straight at her.Those pains were all brought
Chapter 332 I Can’t Let Her Go
There was a loud clatter of sounds.The bottles and glasses on the glass table in front of them instantly shattered to pieces. The glass fragments flew everywhere and even got onto the gentry’s face. Drops of blood slid down from the wound on his cheek.The private room was deadly silent and piercing cold.The young gentry was so frightened by this scene that his face turned pale. He dared not utter another word because he already knew that he had said the wrong thing and angered Eric Ferguson!Eric’s eyes were bloodshot. His body exuded such a terrifying cold as he stood up and glared ruthless at the gentry from a condescending position.“Who the hell are you to mention her name?!”Eric’s voice was cold and oppressive.He stepped forward and kicked the gentry on the body without another word. The gentry huddled up in pain and did not move, but cold sweat trickled down his forehead.The surrounding people dared not come to the gentry’s defense. They only got to mingle in this c
Chapter 333 Already Here
The Stanton Mansion front gates.Keith Ludwig was in the car when he gave Nicole a call.Nicole sounded like she was already sleeping because she picked up impatiently.“Who is this?”Keith pursed his lips and replied, “It’s me, Keith Ludwig. Uh... Ferg had one too many drinks and he’s right outside your house. Can you come out for a sec so he can say what he wants to?”There were a few seconds of silence over the phone. Nicole seemed to have woken up.Her voice was calm and deep. “You can take him and get the hell out of my house!”Keith was speechless for a moment.He struggled. “But we’re already here… If you don’t come out, I’ll just leave him at the door. You’re responsible if he freezes to death!”After that, he hung up the phone and patted his chest.Talking to Nicole now needed a lot of courage!Keith dragged Eric out of the car and sat him down at the gates. It was an extremely unmissable spot right in the middle.He was a little torn. “Ferg, I’m doing this for you
Chapter 334 She’s Going to Disappear
There was an emergency at one of Stanton Corporation’s overseas subsidiaries that had to be dealt with immediately.Grant had some urgent business at headquarters, so he could not leave for the moment. Nicole then took on the task and went on Grant’s behalf. In the meantime, she could also get a change of environment.The news that Nicole had left the country reached Eric’s ears an hour later. At that moment, he was drinking a cup of hangover tea in his office.“What?”Eric was shaken and did not care that the tea had spilled on some important documents. He stood up immediately.For some reason, he felt a vague pain in his waist.“She left the country?”Mitchell nodded. “Yes, when I sent a return gift to the Stanton Mansion, it was received by Young Master Kai. He said that Ms. Stanton is leaving the country and may not come back again…”Eric’s face changed drastically. ‘She’s leaving?!’“Where did she go? Which flight did she take?”His heart and mind were in a mess. He was
