The Deserted Rich Beauty (Nicole and eric) novel Chapter 2073

After a long time, Gerard looked shocked, and he could not calm down.

Gerard's voice was dry and hoarse.

"So, you just let her set the place on fire and watched silently, huh?"

Cheryl was startled. She subconsciously shook her head.

"I... I wanted to save Chance, but Nicole had already rushed in. Right! I wanted to save Chance, but I was one step too late!"

Gerard looked at his sister with complicated eyes.

Was she still the proud and confident Cheryl Lichman that he knew?

When Cheryl spoke, she dodged his gaze.

She was lying, and she was guilty.

Gerard thought of this and felt like his head was covered by a layer of haze. He only felt a chill in his heart.

If it only involved Cheryl, this matter would be relatively simple.

However, Cheryl was so stupid to get involved with Ingrid.

Eric would never let Cheryl get away with it like how he would cover for Ingrid.

Gerard paused, looked at Cheryl for a full minute, stood up, and turned to leave.

"Brother, will you help me?"

Gerard paused. He did not speak and walked out.

He wanted to help Cheryl, but that would depend on whether Eric would let this slide.

This matter lasted for around three days.

No one knew how Gerard managed to beg Eric to get Cheryl released.

Gerard sent Cheryl abroad, and she could never return to Mediania.

Although Cheryl was reluctant at first, Gerard was firm in his decision.

Moreover, Eric's lawyer asked Cheryl to sign a document acknowledging that Eric reserved the right to prosecute her about Chance’s injury.

Cheryl studied law, so she was aware of the document’s validity.

This was equivalent to Eric holding something over her.

If Eric was unhappy, he could take it out and ruin Cheryl's future.

However, Cheryl had no other choice.

Gerard had already given up a lot of benefits to reach such a result.

The deal went through.

Stanton Corporation.

Nicole had just finished a meeting and planned to video call Chatty when Logan pushed the door open and came in.

"President, someone wants to see you. It's Zach Gilbert."

Nicole narrowed her eyes. "I don't want to see him."

"He brought a document that Tina signed before she died. He said that he’s willing to fulfill the contents of the document.”

Nicole paused, frowned, ?f!

Why would Zach suddenly change his mind?

Although Kirsi’s reputation as a homewrecker was made viral, her career had been stagnant for quite some time, so the rumors had little effect on her.

Nicole could not figure out what dirty tricks this cheating couple had up their sleeves.

Shane stayed in the corner of the office and was usually like an invisible person.

Clayton was also extraordinarily tolerant of Shane's existence.

Clayton usually could not tolerate other men coveting Nicole. However, Shane would not covet Nicole. To Shane, there were only two types of people - those he could kill and those he could not.

Zach came in with a smiling face.

"Ms. Stanton...”

He saw Shane standing behind Nicole with such a gloomy and intimidating vibe, as if he could instantly press him to the ground.

Zach paused for a moment and instantly became more humble.

"Ms. Stanton, I came here to look for you.”

Zach licked his lips and went straight to the subject.

He took out the document and handed it over to Nicole carefully.

Zach did not expect Nicole to know about the property he had already transferred.

This meant that Tina was also aware.

Thinking about it now, Gilbert realized that Tina's death seemed to be beneficial to him.

Zach was upset in the days after Tina died.

Now, he was glad that she had died.

Nicole glanced at Logan, who asked Zach to leave.

Why did Kirsi ask Zach to be amiable with Nicole?

Nicole was puzzled.

In the evening, Clayton sent Nicole a message saying that he was entertaining some guests and would only go home later.

Nicole was very pleased that Clayton reported his schedule to her on his own initiative, so she did not urge him to come home.

Nicole was still upset about Tina's death, so

she was not in the mood to hang out these days.

She simply went back to the Stanton Mansion to see Chatty.

Chatty was a carefree soul in the mansion. She wore the same fisherman hat as Floyd's and insisted on going into the water to fish.

Everyone knew that Floyd liked fishing.

However, Floyd stopped fishing because of Chatty's safety and even got someone to fill up the lake, transforming it into a small landscape fountain.

The shallow water reached Chatty's calf, and there were a few big fish in it.

Chatty tried to catch the fish every day, but the fish was much faster than her, so the chances of her catching it were slim.

Floyd moved the rocking chair to the area and watched on happily as Chatty scrambled all over the place.

Nicole saw this scene when she came back and parked the car.

She walked over with a smile. When Chatty saw her mother, she happily carried a big fish and wanted to shove it into Nicole’s arms.

Nicole dodged in horror while Mr. Anderson laughed in the back.

Nicole was speechless.
