The Deserted Rich Beauty (Nicole and eric) novel Chapter 2383

Nicole and Clayton tacitly did not talk about what happened with Kira blocking the car window earlier, but Julie took the initiative to mention it. Nicole also responded.

The corners of Clayton’s mouth twitched, and he just listened to the girls’ conversation.

“That woman used to be a model abroad. This time, she has some connections and wants to act in my movie as a model who made a comeback. It’s a secondary role, but it’s still not a small role. The investor wants to stuff her in, but she’s not that talented… Why would I spend so much money to support an untalented person? What a joke!”

Julie spoke in front while she rubbed her temples. Her voice was a bit cold.

Clayton’s eyes were dark as he glanced at Nicole.

Nicole did not seem to mind this. Instead, she seemed more interested in the gossip.

“She wants to be an actress?”

Julie raised her eyebrows. “That also depends on whether someone is willing to spend money on her, right?”

This dinner was probably the most effort that the investor was willing to put in for Kira.

Thus, Julie did not want to discuss it further.

Along the way, the two ladies jumped from talking about actors to beauty salons and breast augmentation.

In the end, they gave up because they were scared to undergo plastic surgery.

Clayton became drowsy as he listened, so he closed his eyes without any intention of joining in their conversation.

After all, he did not know what to say.

It was not until Julie got out of the car that Clayton slowly woke up.

Nicole yawned to the side.

Clayton smiled and put her head on his shoulders.

It was a warm and noisy journey home.

None of them took that little episode to heart.

......

Quinn’s case was closed in less than a week.

Half a month later, she was convicted and sentenced to one year in prison for attempted murder with a one-year reprieve.

This meant that Quinn did not need to go to jail immediately, but she could not escape the charges.

This trial was not made public, and no traces of the car accident could be found online.

Nicole received a new car a month later.

She did not even look at it and gave it to Logan as his wedding present. Logan was delighted.

Quinn was being watched by the police, but it was not much use since she was paralyzed.

Besides the caregiver, no one else interacted with Quinn.

Quinn regained consciousness a week after being rescued.

Ever since she woke up, Eric had not visited her in the hospital.

She was placed in a high-end ward, but it was deserted. The only sounds in the room were the ticking of the medical equipment and the caregiver mopping the floor.

Eric came back from a business trip abroad and went to the hospital before he went home.

The caregiver excitedly invited him in.

She only heard that the son of this paralyzed woman was the president of a listed company but had yet to see him in person.

Eric came in to take a look. Quinn’s eyes were closed. Her face was pale, and her cheeks were sunken. She was very thin, and her hair became a little gray and sparse.

He retracted his gaze indifferently.

The caregiver was an experienced old woman. She was worried that Eric would blame her for not taking good care of the patient, but Eric turned his head to look at her and took out a wad of cash from his pocket.

“Thanks for your hard work.”

The caregiver took it over in surprise. She was relieved and patiently explained, “You’re too polite, Mr. Ferguson. This is my job. Your mother has lost a lot of weight. According to the doctor, she can eat normally. I cook a lot of meals every day according to the nutrition plan, but she doesn’t eat a single bite. I have no choice but to feed her with a syringe…”

Eric nodded without emotion. His handsome face was stern, and his voice was flat and slightly cold.

“It’s okay. Just do your best.”
