The Deserted Rich Beauty (Nicole and eric) novel Chapter 2194

Eric’s complexion changed subtly. His throat moved slightly, and he pursed his lips.

“Okay, the address is…”

After he finished speaking, Floyd hung up the phone.

Grant looked at Floyd in admiration and could not help but give him a thumbs up.

Floyd’s face was heavy.

“You can help Kai while l pick up your sister. Let’s meet at the hotel later.”

Grant nodded, then frowned.

“Dad, I remember we have a holiday villa here. Shouldn’t we go there?”

Floyd shook his head.

“Let’s just go to the hotel and wait until your sister wakes up.”

Grant nodded, then he went to open the car door. He told the driver, “Be careful when you’re driving on the road, and call me if you need anything.”

The driver nodded.

Floyd sighed and closed the door by himself.

“Okay. You should go and check out the situation.”

Grant sent Floyd away before he went to look for Kai.

In the crowd, the well-dressed and handsome young man had long since lost his dapper look.

After the earthquake, it rained for a while, so the ground was muddy and wet.

Kai fell several times in a row, so his clothes were covered in mud.

The expensive brand-name clothes he wore no longer looked the same.

However, Kai did not stop even though he looked like that. He partnered with a chubby man and carried a patient with a leg injury, bringing the patient to the medical station.

Grant saw Kai’s back and thought that he looked pitiful but also very brave.

At this time, no one recognized that Kai was a famous movie star.

Grant sighed. It was a rare moment that Grant felt proud of his younger brother for doing good deeds.

Thus, Grant took a picture of Kai’s wretched state and planned to frame it up for Kai on his birthday so that Kai could do more good deeds.

The sky was still dark.

At that moment, almost half of the people in that city could not sleep or eat well.

Floyd’s car arrived at Eric’s house, and the driver knocked on the door.

Eric personally came to open the door.

Floyd got out of the car, walked over, and looked at Eric with a faint smile.

“Mr. Ferguson, thank you for your help this time. It’s truly a coincidence that you showed up here.”

Eric was meticulously dressed. It looked like he had prepared himself after they hung up the phone.

He always had manners when dealing with elders that he respected.

Eric pursed his lips and said in a humble and respectful attitude, “You’re welcome, Chairman Stanton. It’s my pleasure to help.”

Floyd nodded and walked in.

“Nicole must’ve caused you trouble. By the way, why isn’t Clayton here? Shouldn’t he be with her at this time?”

Eric’s face tightened. He glanced at Floyd.

“You don’t know yet? Unfortunately, Mr. Sloan was killed in the earthquake, and his body hasn’t even been found yet. Nicole insisted on going to the bottom of the mountain to search for him all night. In the end, she was a little emotionally unstable, so I brought her back and settled her down. I hope you can advise her well. By the way, your granddaughter is also here. She still doesn’t know what’s going on, and she’s already fast asleep, so I’ll get someone to wake her up.”

Eric spoke in an unhurried voice, but he gave off a chill.

Floyd was mentally strong and was used to seeing all kinds of situations. He felt that Nicole finally survived all those hardships when she married the man she loved.

He had also observed and tested Clayton for a long time and found him to be a trustworthy person.

How could Clayton get killed just like that?

Floyd thought that Eric was talking nonsense and glanced at him in disbelief. His face was shocked and pale.

He took a deep breath and suppressed his emotions.

“I’ll go and see Nicole first. Where is she?”

Eric was also tactful and stopped talking. He stretched out his hand.

When they reached the car, Floyd stood in front of the car and looked at Nicole, who was in a deep sleep strangely. He had a look of disbelief on his face.

“This girl! Why is she sleeping so soundly that she can’t even wake up when I called out to her?”

He muttered while pounding his back.

Eric’s eyes flickered slightly. He pursed his lips and gently put Chatty on the child seat. He carefully adjusted her to a comfortable position before he closed the car door.

“Chairman Stanton, please contact me any time if you need my help. I’ll stay here for the time being. By the way, the search and rescue team will resume their work in a while. I’ll ask them to contact Grant so you’ll save a lot of time.”

Floyd’s expression was complicated as he nodded.

Since Eric was being reasonable, Floyd had no reason to slap him in the face.

“Thank you, Mr. Ferguson. I’ll ask my son-in-law to come over and thank you in person once we find him.”

Eric’s expression froze slightly, but he still smiled and nodded.

He could hear the detachment and sense of proportion in Floyd’s words.

Floyd also did not believe that Clayton was dead.

However, that was a fact. Even if they were reluctant to accept it, that was the reality.

Eric watched the car leave.

For a while, Eric stood there with his tall and slender figure, looking so lonely.

There were footsteps at the door, and the maid came out rubbing her eyes. She was startled when she saw Eric standing there.

“Mr. Ferguson, why are you here? I heard something just now…”

Eric’s expression was gloomy as he replied, “You don’t need to cook in the morning.”

After he finished speaking, he turned around and went in.

Eric did not sleep all night, and there were dark circles under his eyes.

As soon as Nicole and Chatty left, the whole house felt empty.

Eric could not sleep anymore.
