Xander actually dared to come back?
Heh...
Nicole thought about it before sending a message to Dominic Young. "Xander doesn't have work scheduled tonight?"
Dominic replied a few seconds later. "He's playing a supporting role in Director Zoros’s movie. It'll be an overnight shoot."
Nicole had an idea of what was going on.
She got someone to dispose of the flowers and bid goodbye to Miles before leaving.
Nathaniel watched as the line he painstakingly cast for Eric slowly disappeared and hurriedly ran over.
"Nikki, you drank alcohol, so it’ll be dangerous if you leave alone. I'll ask someone to send you back."
Nicole refused as she walked. "No need."
"That won't do. I’ll be worried..."
Nicole gave him a look. "Niel, your program hasn't been very popular recently, but I don’t see you being short of money. Why is the Ferguson family suddenly being so generous to you?"
Nathaniel's expression changed slightly. He knew in a n instant that Nicole could tell that he had been
colluding with Eric!
This was too difficult.
He was being scorned by the woman he once liked. This feeling of failure was extremely frustrating.
However... Money was still more important!
"My uncle isn't that bad. He's actually really kind-hearted as long as you have a deeper look..."
Nicole paused and shot him a sidelong glance.
“Sorry, but I don’t want to have a deeper look."
Nathaniel was speechless.
Nicole pressed the elevator button and went downstairs.
A low-key secondhand van was quietly parked on the side of the road.
As soon as she appeared, the van door opened and Xander got out, waving at her excitedly.
"Ms. Stanton..."
Upstairs.
Eric stood at the balcony beside the elevator. Through the window, he saw Nicole get into the car.
He also saw the man. It was that damned Xander.
