"Wrong number? Then who do you want to date?” Eric’s voice was magnetic and pleasant.
"Just not you!" Nicole answered.
She was so angry that smoke was coming out of her head. Tigger still looked confused and could not figure out why she was so angry.
Eric was silent for a few seconds and spoke again in a somewhat low voice.
"Didn’t you like me a lot in the past?" 1
That was the past, a really long time ago.
Nicole almost forgot about how hard life was when she liked him.
She paused for a moment and said in a harsh tone," That was the past. Now I'm very self-aware."
"You don't need to..."
Before Eric could finish his sentence, Nicole picked Tigger up by the tail and yelled at it. "Hurry up and end the call now!"
Tigger obediently hung up the call. It felt so aggrieved that tears came out.
Nicole could not bear to see it sad. She let go of him and stroked its head.
"You little rascal, don't you know that I hate him? Who told you to call him?"
"Mama, you said that you wanted to date the guy with the best overall qualities..."
Tigger defiantly argued.
Nicole hissed. "But he’s also divorced! You didn’t exclude him. That's cheating!"
"But he was married to you, Mama, which means that i f he can meet all other aspects of your preferences, then it can make up for this defect.”
"That's bullsh*t! Never!"
Nicole was very firm. Tigger let out a weak "oh" and obediently shrunk into her arms. It wagged its little tail and dared not argue again.
Before going to bed, Nicole received a text message.
She hastily swept a glance and read the message.
[No dating anyone else!]
'What does he care?!' Nicole coldly snorted in disdain and went back to sleep.
The Presidential Suite of Hilton Hotel.
Lil Michael was naked as he ran for the door, but he was carried back by a tall and strong bodyguard.
The little boy whined and cried without tears. "I wanna sleep with my pretty lady! I don't wanna stay here!”
The bodyguard speechlessly put Michael onto the living room sofa. The maid then came out of the bathroom to dress him.
"Young Master, Mr. Sloan doesn’t like you running around. If you run away again, he'll get really angry!"
Lil Michael did not care about that and pouted.
