The Deserted Rich Beauty (Nicole and eric) novel Chapter 564

Eric's breathing instantly stalled. The air around him seemed to condense and permeate with a light chill.

His eyes narrowed. 'The first request she made was actually for that counterfeit?!'

He licked the corner of his mouth. His narrow eyes carried a hint of gloom.

There was some inexplicable discomfort in his throat.

"What, you can't bear to see him gone?"

Nicole said, "Of course. He’s my guy that I stuffed in here."

'How can I let him lose such a good opportunity when I haven't squeezed out Xander's remaining value yet?'

Eric stared intently at Nicole. The pleasure he felt earlier was swept away in an instant, as if a bucket of cold water fell from the sky and solely poured over his head.

He felt cold through the heart.

However, he could only stand there and glare at her, not daring to ask one more question.

If not, he would just be asking for trouble and making a fool of himself.

Kai coughed and felt that he was quite redundant here.

Eric was clearly not a match for Nicole, so he worried for nothing.

Kai stood up and found an excuse to leave.

The two of them were left in the cabin.

They looked at each other, and no one spoke first.

Nicole looked extraordinarily calm. 'That's all he can put up with?’

She was not afraid of Eric's wrath, nor was she afraid o f him leaving in disappointment.

Nicole sat there with a faint smile and exquisite eyebrows. She was unmoved.

Eric conceded defeat. He lowered his eyes and smiled, then looked at her seriously.

"What about me?”

'He's your guy. What about me?'

She promised to give him a chance too.

Nicole laughed. The words she uttered were extremely cold. "You’re not my husband, so I don't feel anything for you.”

She only agreed for him to be one of her lovers.

"Also, it’s best that no one else knows about our relationship." She added with a smile.

"Am I that embarrassing?"

She left with Kai.

Eric stood in place. His body stiffened as a storm was brewing in his eyes.

No one noticed the undercurrents between these two big shots.

The crew was speculating whether their relationship had broken the ice. This was a real shocker.

Toto came to pick up Eric.

When he saw Eric's face, he thought about the gossip h e heard from the group of actors and crew. It seemed like there was ambiguous interaction between Eric and Nicole.

'Could it be...?'

Toto coughed. "Mr. Ferguson, I saw Ms. Stanton just now..."

At the mention of her name, Eric's eyelids jumped.

Toto asked, “You didn’t fight, did you?"

Eric's gaze was cold as he glared at Toto silently.

'Does he have a death wish? I can grant him his wish...’

Toto immediately changed his tone. "I mean... Don't be impulsive. At critical moments, you must be patient. A s long as Ms. Stanton is happy, we need to compromise a little. Otherwise, according to her character, she may be deliberately making you angry s o that you'll give up."
