The Deserted Rich Beauty (Nicole and eric) novel Chapter 2273

It was just that Nicole hid it so well that others could not see it.

The moment she came back, she did not mention anything about Clayton.

There were no fluctuations in her emotions either.

It was weird and out of character for Nicole, but Kai did not say anything. He just smiled and asked Michael and the others to go to the wine cellar to get some wine.

Leighton and the others also drank some.

Camille was the happiest, probably because the company’s problems were resolved, and everyone was safe and sound.

Nicole could not drink, so she only sipped on her juice.

After the meal, Leighton played games with Fischer and Chatty while Camille walked to Nicole’s side.

Camille could not hide the joy on her face.

“Ms. Stanton, this is great! We’ve gotten rid of Sebastian, and you’re awake. We can finally breathe a sigh of relief.”

Nicole smiled. “Yes. I was really lucky to not die in that explosion…”

Camille explained in a low voice, “I heard from Leighton and Connor that the self-destruction system is not that powerful and was only a micro-explosion to destroy the lab. Perhaps Sebastian was worried that once the device was activated, he wouldn’t be able to escape, so he prepared this to scare everyone and destroy evidence. We sent some people to investigate it later. The nearby sea was affected, but it didn’t cause any large-scale impact, and the damage was not serious. Leighton and the others also told the authorities about it, so no one came to investigate this matter.”

Nicole’s eyelashes trembled slightly.

No wonder everything seemed so peaceful even after such a dramatic life-and-death experience.

“What about Sebastian?”

“He didn’t come up. I don’t know how he got shot. He couldn’t escape…”

Camille said to Nicole.

Nicole smiled calmly.

That was good.

The welcome party was quite lively. They even video-called Floyd and the others in Mediania.

Although Floyd looked a little tired, he could not hide his excitement and joy.

It was already late at night in Mediania, and Nicole did not want to disturb Floyd’s sleep, so she asked him to go to bed after a few words.

At night, Nicole got dressed and went to the dinner location that Eric invited her to.

However, she went alone.

Eric always had good taste.

He booked a restaurant overlooking half of the city, and he reserved the entire floor.

The chandelier cast a nice shadow on the ground, and the scene looked like an ethereal and luxurious dream.

The night view outside the window was also beautiful.

When Nicole arrived, she saw the man by the window. He was tall and standing straight, and half of his body was hidden in the shadows. He looked dignified and strong, just like that person back then.

Nicole went over and sat down.

When Eric heard her movement, he turned to look at her and fixed his gaze on her.

He sighed softly and stepped out of the darkness to reveal his handsome and indifferent face.

“Are you feeling better?”

“Yeah, much better.”

Nicole spoke calmly.

Eric looked at her. His voice was unbelievably calm.

“What do you plan to do next?”

His eyes were dark, and he looked indifferent, so Nicole could not read his emotions.

Nicole glanced out the window and took a deep breath.

“I’m going back home.”

“Anything else?”
