The Deserted Rich Beauty (Nicole and eric) novel Chapter 2243

It seemed like Jeff would disappear when the huge waves hit.

For some reason, Nicole encountered him quite frequently lately. However, considering the size of the cruise ship, this was unavoidable.

When they returned to Mediania, they probably would not have the chance to meet again.

Nicole did not want to disturb Jeff’s alone time because it seemed a little abrupt.

After all, they were not familiar with each other even though her heart was moved because of the sense of familiarity he gave her.

At that thought, Nicole planned to turn around and leave, but the person sitting there suddenly turned back.

He probably heard her.

Jeff still wore a mask and a hat. He was shrouded in gloom.

It was as if he had wrapped himself in a thick cocoon so that no one could walk in.

When he saw Nicole, he was a little surprised, and he froze slightly.

Nicole pursed her lips and smiled shyly.

“Sorry, I didn’t know anyone was here.”

Jeff nodded lightly. His voice was a little hoarse, and he sounded like he was not in good spirits.

“Ms. Stanton, please sit.”

Nicole hesitated for a few seconds before walking over.

It would be rude to just leave.

A small part of the deck was open-air.

The sea breeze howled.

The sky and the sea were vast, and the huge waves were strong and overwhelming.

There was a chair and a table near the railing.

There was originally a chair opposite the table, but it was taken away because of Jeff’s wheelchair.

Nicole sat on the chair and could vaguely hear the orchestra and the lively dance from downstairs. It was as if these were not happening at the same time.

“I heard from my third brother about what happened earlier. My daughter recognized the wrong person. She’s still young, and I’d like to apologize to you on her behalf.”

Jeff’s face turned pale as he held back some emotions.

After a few seconds, he said calmly, “It’s nothing. She’s really cute and didn’t bother me.”

Nicole secretly breathed a sigh of relief as she was relieved to hear that he was not angry.

However, according to what Kai told her, Jeff was not a bad person. He was very patient with Chatty.

If Nicole could take a closer look at his face under the mask, she would find that his breathing was much slower at this time. His eyes were reddish, and the veins on the back of his hands were bulging.

“In fact, we seem to have met before this. There was a performance yesterday in the amusement park, and I swapped seats with someone at the last minute. That was how I ended up sitting next to you. Do you remember, Mr. Lieberman?”

Nicole could not help but ask him.

After a while, Jeff hesitated to speak. “No. Although I was there, I left quickly because of a last-minute engagement. Unfortunately, I didn’t pay much attention to others. Please forgive me, Ms. Stanton.”

Nicole smiled and did not care much.

They did not know each other before. If she did not sense that familiarity with Jeff, she would not have noticed him or paid extra attention to him.

Presumably to Jeff, Nicole was the same as any ordinary person there.

She was just a stranger, so there was no point in noticing her.

Thinking about it this way, Nicole naturally became more open-minded.

“It’s alright. I’m just curious how you ended up there?”

Jeff looked a little nervous. He pursed his lips, and his tone was calm as he said, “I just wanted to join in the fun when I heard that there was a new performance.”

Nicole nodded. No wonder.

After all, there were quite a few people at the performance, including adults and children.

The two were silent for a while.

Jeff looked at the void sea with an incomprehensible emotion in his eyes.
