The person who spoke among the crowd was a skinny man with a baseball cap who looked like a local.Although the man looked inconspicuous as he stood there, his temperament was still very different from those polite journalists.Nicole retracted her gaze and ordered Logan in a low voice, “Find the man who spoke out and get him under control, then hand him over to the police.”That man was certainly not a reporter. He most probably came here to cause trouble under Lincoln Zelman’s coercion.Logan hesitated. “But if I leave you here…”No one would be there to protect Nicole.Nicole pursed her lips. “It’s okay, no one will notice me here. Just go and come back quickly.”They thought about many defenses, but they did not expect someone to sneak in with the press.Logan nodded and obliged.After all, in this environment, calling someone would attract attention.“Tell us! How much did you charge them to sell out your husband?”The man below the stage was still shouting and stirring
The man with the baseball cap panicked. “That’s nonsense!”The young girl who looked like she just started junior high school, stepped forward.Her emotions were the most restrained, but her voice trembled.She pointed at the man and spoke in front of the reporter.“That’s him! He’s not a good person. To delay the project, he sacrifices a human life every year and disguises it as an accident. Just because my father is a foreigner who’s unfamiliar with this place and has no relatives here, he killed my father!”The restlessness among the reporters made the man with the baseball cap instantly nervous. Several of his accomplices saw that the situation was bad and wanted to withdraw.However, before they could leave, they were stopped by Logan and some bodyguards.This press conference had a lot of twists and turns, but it was very exciting.Those reporters were still focused on the three victims’ families’ accusations, so they did not notice that Eric bent down to pick up Nicole a
The driver was stunned for a moment and hurriedly started the car.Nicole’s eyebrows were knitted together. “Where are you going? My people are still inside. I want to go down!”Eric’s handsome and fair face showed a hint of mockery.“Your people? When you were in danger, your people weren’t even visible. They’re not as good as me…”Nicole’s eyes faintly flickered. She pursed her lips. “Did you bring those three victims’ family members here?”Before Eric answered, Toto spoke with relish.“Yes, Ms. Stanton. Mr. Ferguson is so attentive to you. He heard that you came to this damn place again and put aside so many things in the company because he’s worried for your safety. When we were on the way over, he was chanting your name all the way. Sigh… We were so touched when we saw it. Where can you find such a great guy?”What Toto originally said was well-founded, but the more he spoke, the more off-topic it got.Toto did not notice Eric’s cold and murderous gaze as well as Nicole’s
Nicole was hooked by the rich and deep affection in Eric’s eyes and was stunned for a moment. Immediately after, she resumed her aloof look.She forcefully drew back her hand, drew a tissue from the tissue box on the side, and wiped her fingers slowly.Eric’s black eyes sank. His eyelashes drooped down. The curved shadows covered the loss within his eyes.“Eric Ferguson, not everything can be solved with an apology. Think about it, since we met until now, how many times have you apologized to me?”Nicole’s words were like a knife that stabbed into Eric’s heart.His body fiercely stiffened, and his face was tense and unsightly.He did not know what to say to justify himself.In her heart, Eric was serving a life sentence.What qualifications did he have to negotiate with her on equal terms?The atmosphere in the car condensed for a moment.In the front, Toto really could not help it. For Eric’s happiness, Toto admitted his fault.“Ms. Stanton, actually…”Toto gritted his tee
Nicole really did not want to talk to Eric F*ckerson again.She raised her eyes and met Toto’s gaze, who was peeking back.Before Toto could shift his gaze, Nicole spoke.“Toto, lend me your phone and I’ll spare you this time.”In the end, Toto was only targeting Clayton, not her.Nicole had already taken revenge and avenged herself.Although Clayton saved her life, she would not turn against Ferguson Corporation for him because Stanton Corporation was behind her.Toto hesitated to hand over his phone.Eric warned him from behind. “You can try giving it…”Nicole was furious.“Eric Ferguson, do you think that they don’t know that you took me away? My people will find me soon.”Eric opened his eyes slightly.His eyes were obscure and dark with a dullness.“Is staying with me so unbearable for you?”Nicole laughed in exasperation. “If it were you, would you be as willing to be with me?”Eric pondered for a few seconds. “I would…”Nicole was speechless. ‘Forget it… There’s
Toto coughed heavily when he heard Clayton’s name.He then pressed the button that automatically pulled the curtain open. The sunlight outside the window was brilliant and blinding, which instantly shone into the car.Nicole subconsciously closed her eyes. The memories from before she slept flooded in her head.‘Oh… This is Eric’s car…’When she raised her head again, she saw Eric’s dark and sullen face. He seemed to be vaguely suppressing his anger as he looked deeply at her.Eric then simply opened the car door and got off.The people in the other cars also came down. They were from the Stanton family.Eric straightened his clothes and nodded slightly. “Big Brother…”The corners of Grant’s mouth twitched.Grant’s face was already glum to begin with because Nicole had run off to Sand City by herself without telling him.By the time Grant knew about it, it was already too late.When Grant was on the way to pick her up, he heard that she had been taken away by Eric.Not only
Nicole’s face became twisted. Her gaze was like dense needles that stabbed at Eric.She wanted to curse him.She also wanted to throw up!Grant was calm and snorted lightly. He ignored Eric and walked forward.He then deliberately interpreted Eric’s cheesy words in other ways.“He’s saying that you’re too fat and take up too much space…”Nicole reacted to it and could not help but break into a cursing fit.“Eric Ferguson, f*ck you!”Nicole felt like biting him. Saying that she had grown fat was the same as questioning a fashionista’s taste and doubting a woman’s self-control.Although Nicole had been living the good life these days and did not go to the gym to exercise, the people around her said that she had lost weight.‘Eric F*ckerson! He’s not only annoying but also blind!’ Nicole thought.Eric did not hear Grant’s words, so he did not understand why Nicole suddenly scolded him. He was so indignant that he did not know what to say.He mustered up the courage to say such
Mitchell gave Toto a speechless look. ‘Never mind… Looks like I was just overthinking things…’Toto would not jump ship!Old Master Ferguson seemed determined to change the person in charge of Ferguson Corporation. He used his own contacts to bring in some old acquaintances while looking for those top executives in the company who had been suppressed by Eric.Within a few days, Ferguson Corporation was in a state of panic.The employees carefully chose their sides.Those with status would be ruined if they chose the wrong team. Those without status were useless even if they picked the wrong side.After all, the small employees were not useful.Even so, Eric was indifferent to Old Master Ferguson’s approach. Many even ran over to Eric to remind him to be careful over and over again.Eric did not take it to heart and behaved very calmly.He did not have any countermeasures, so everyone could only feel anxious for him.Eric’s ability and position were untouchable here, he brough
