The Deserted Rich Beauty (Nicole and eric) novel Chapter 69

Eric Ferguson felt his heart clenched and his eyes darkened. He did not know anything about Nicole. He was unaware that she could play the violin so well, nor did he know that she smoked.

"I never smoked in front of you because I was afraid you wouldn’t like it before, so of course, you never had the chance to see it."

Every time Nicole donated blood, she would feel very weak. Eric accompanied Wendy Quade, and Nicole’s only company was cigarettes. Nicole was particularly addicted to smoking during those tough days.

The corners of Nicole's lips hooked up, but her eyes were slightly despondent. A moment later, she returned to her usual self.

She glanced at Eric's drooping eyes and smiled playfully.

"Want to hear my conditions?"

Without waiting for his reply, Nicole went straight to the point.

"Get Wendy Quade to give me however much blood I've donated to her. It doesn't have to be in one go.

Anyway, she can finish repaying me within a year."

Eric's head jolted up. "What?"

Nicole laughed. “I thought about it. My blood is so precious, so I should use it to save people who are actually worth saving, rather than wasting it on this vile woman. I was so stupid before, but it's still not too late to wake up from my delirium. I want my blood back. In exchange, I'll give you the pipe, then we won't owe each other anymore.”

Wendy Quade was only trying to spite Nicole, so from time to time, she would pretend to be sick or hurt and would ask Nicole to transfuse blood to her. Nicole knew all about it, but Eric never saw through it. In the past, Nicole would feel aggrieved, but now, it all seemed irrelevant.

Once Wendy returned her blood, Nicole could draw a clear line with the past and could finally feel whole again.

'Isn't Wendy Quade coming back soon? I want to spite that woman! Which will he choose? His family heirloom or Wendy Quade?' Nicole was looking forward to Eric's answer.

She smiled leisurely and threw the cigarette butt in the ashtray in front of her, then stood up and left the room with her purse.

"You don't need to give me an answer so quickly.

Think about it.”
