Chapter 397 You’re Sick
The tatami was spacious and the lighting in the room was perfect.Nicole pushed Eric’s wheelchair over as she thought to herself, ‘He really has so many problems!’“What else do you need?”Eric said, “I don’t wanna sit here. I wanna sit over there. It’s more comfortable there.”He did not want to be in a wheelchair.Nicole paused and frowned, then told him frankly, “I can’t lift you.”Not unless he wanted to be disabled for life!Nicole thought that Eric was deliberately being nitpicky.Eric helplessly propped himself up on the wheelchair and made a gesture to stand up. All his strength was concentrated on his left leg.He wanted to move over a little, but a small action like this caused sweat to seep from his forehead.Nicole frowned tightly. Her reflexes were faster than her thoughts as she lunged forward to support the man who was about to fall.All of his weight was pressed on her. Her thin waist tightened as her breathing grew heavy.When she looked to the side, she sa
Chapter 398 Eavesdropping
“Mr. Ferguson ordered me not to go upstairs and disturb them. Ms. Stanton is treating him coldly, but I think she’s faking it. She’s just playing hard to get…”The nanny, Lucy, deliberately lowered her voice.“Click—” The kitchen suddenly lit up.Lucy stood up in shock and dropped the phone to the ground in a panic.At the moment the screen dimmed, Nicole saw the name on it.Madam Ferguson.‘So… She’s on the phone with Quinn…’ Nicole thought.Lucy shuddered and looked at Nicole with panic in her eyes, stumbling over her words.“M-Ms. Nicole, w-what are you doing here?”Nicole swept her an indifferent glance. Her eyes were dark and sunken without a trace of warmth.She went over to take the carton of milk, poured it into a glass, and left.Lucy picked up the phone with trembling hands and suddenly felt a little flustered when she looked at Nicole’s back.Nicole went upstairs while drinking the milk. She had already finished the glass by the time she reached the door of the s
Chapter 399 Took the Wrong Meds
Back in Eric’s room, he was so angry that he did not even feel like sleeping.He originally wanted to take this opportunity to bond with Nicole, but with Luca around, Eric could not do anything!It was incredibly depressing and stifling.......The night passed. Nicole did not sleep very well, but it was fortunately dawn when she opened her eyes again.Someone knocked on the door.Nicole let out a grunt to acknowledge it, so Luca stopped knocking.A while later, she got dressed in a simple white silk blouse and black A-line skirt. She walked downstairs gracefully. The slightly lazy look in her bright features made her cold temperament seem a little softer.Eric sat at the dining table early in the morning and brightened up when he saw her.“Good morning, Nicole.”Nicole nodded in greeting as she walked over and asked casually, “Did you sleep well last night?”Eric’s gaze seemed to be somewhat complicated and aggrieved as he glanced at Luca.“Not really.”Luca’s lips twitch
Chapter 400 Are You Angry?
“The most outrageous thing is that she even forgot to give Mr. Ferguson his medicine yesterday and made him take double the dose this morning! She must be trying to kill him. That woman is simply too vicious. She probably wants to take revenge on him… Madam, if that woman marries into the family again, she’ll surely bring trouble!”......Eric’s expression changed abruptly. His originally surprised and happy look was gradually replaced by coldness and gloom. A sharp and dangerous haze seemed to coat his face.He did not say anything, but his fingers clutching the wheelchair began to turn white. The veins on his arms bulged as he held himself back.Nicole sat calmly on the steps as if she was listening to some gossip that had nothing to do with her. There was even a faint but cold smile on her face.Her calmness was like a knife that gouged out his heart little by little.Eric thought that by bringing her back, he would be able to make her forget about the ugly past and make some
Chapter 401 Who’s Warning Who?
Lucy thought, ‘Mr. Ferguson wants to send me to the Philippines?! That’d be torture compared with my workload now! Will I still be able to come back? Did he hear what I said on the call earlier?’Her panic spread from the soles of her feet to the top of her head as she trembled.She knew very well how fond Eric was of Nicole now. Eric was also a man of his word.Lucy quickly called Quinn and pleaded in tears.In less than an hour, Quinn rushed over in a rage.She just so happened to bump into Nicole, who was planning to go out shopping.Quinn entered the door fuming. Without a second thought, she pointed at Nicole and scolded, “You vixen! You’re already divorced yet you’re still seducing my son?! We let you reconcile, but you’re pretending to be unhappy and unwilling, yet here you are now! How shameless can you be?”Nicole looked at Quinn with a cold gaze. Sure enough, Quinn was as loathsome as ever!“Mrs. Ferguson, I hope that you’ll be a bit more respectful with your words. D
Chapter 402 Retribution Came Too Quickly
Quinn went crazy. “Get rid of this woman! I won’t allow you to be together!”Eric reminded her coldly, “You don’t have a say in my affairs.”Quinn gnashed her teeth at him. “You’re my son. How can you disobey me?”Eric’s eyes were calm and indifferent.From the time Eric was sent abroad to receive special training at the age of five, he would call Quinn whenever he was homesick. However, Quinn, who was busy shopping, would just tell him impatiently to bear with it and grow up.Quinn would then tell Old Master Ferguson that Eric secretly called her, so Eric would get a beating in exchange.‘Now that I’m an adult, she thinks that she can control me? How ridiculous!’ Eric’s lips curled as he revealed a bitter and heavy smile.“If you’re kicked out of the Ferguson family, I won’t be your son anymore.”Quinn’s body shook fiercely. Her face instantly turned ashen.Not even in her dreams would Quinn have thought that Eric would say such words.Eric slowly collected the emotions on h
Chapter 403 Asking for External Aid
Imperial Gardens.Eric’s face was pallid as he sat in the doorway, looking at the numerous people going back and forth to move Quinn into the ambulance. The noise seemed to be very distant.Was he sad?No, not really.He was just a little shocked.Eric was shocked that Quinn hated Nicole to the point of wanting to murder her.What Eric disregarded in the past had caused that hatred to fester and grow.Mitchell finished with the arrangements and turned around to see Eric sitting in his wheelchair, motionless.His face was dark, cold, and sullen.Even if Eric was injured, the coldness and ferocity that surrounded him did not diminish one bit.Mitchell pursed his lips and walked over with trepidation and worry.“President, don’t worry. The doctor said that she just lost too much blood. There’s no danger to her life.”Eric did not speak, but his dark eyes became darker. Mitchell was unable to see the depths of them.Eric slammed the armrest of the wheelchair and spoke in a dee
Chapter 404 The Cousin is Here
Mitchell called his cousin immediately.Less than twenty minutes later.A fat man who looked to be over 100 kg appeared in front of Eric.He had a wide smile which made his eyes squint into a thin line.Eric paused and frowned. His expression was dark and ugly when he looked at Mitchell, who was standing beside his cousin.“Cousin?”Before Mitchell could speak, the fat man’s eyes curved into a smile. He introduced himself with spittle flying everywhere. “You don’t have to be so polite, Mr. Ferguson. There’s no need to call me Cousin. My name is Toto. Don’t worry, you won’t go wrong by choosing me as your butler! One month to reconcile, three months to warm up your feelings for each other, and you two will be remarried within a year!”Toto introduced himself eloquently. He could only appear confident by setting the goal clearly for Eric.Otherwise, he felt that he was very likely to be thrown out!Sure enough, the instant Eric saw Toto, Eric felt like he had gone mad to get per
