Eric's eyes were cold when he raised them slightly. His voice was indifferent as he said, "What's done is done. I'm not qualified to forgive you on her behalf, and it's Nicole who doesn't care for your apology.”
Seeing Wendy's shocked gaze, Eric looked away and said, "What are you waiting for? Drive!"
"Yes, President." The driver dared not delay another second and immediately drove away.
Wendy Quade stood stiffly in place as she watched the car fade from sight. The grievance in her eyes was gradually replaced by anger.
'I was only abroad for a short time, when did Eric become so cold to me? He even spoke for Nicole? She's really something!'
Wendy took out her phone in anger and dialed a number. Her voice was warm as she said, "Ingrid? I'm back..."
Floyd Stanton was still abroad. Grant Stanton was also on a business trip. Thus, Kai was dead set on following Nicole home.
Nicole grunted in reluctance as Kai clung to her. "Mr. Anderson cleaned up your apartment two days ago. Why do you have to stay with me?"
Kai pinched her ears and almost picked her up like when they were young. "Objection invalid! I haven't been to my house in a long time, so it feels a bit strange. I want to live with you here!"
Nicole helplessly opened the door and registered Kai's fingerprints into it. Kai nodded in satisfaction and swaggered in.
Once he went into Nicole's apartment, Kai looked around and saw the subtle yet delicate and expensive decor. The diamond chandelier overhead shone brightly. Nicole’s favorite light Morandi palette was also appropriately incorporated.
"Not bad, as expected from El, the famous interior designer. No wonder Dad said that you don't wanna go back home to live with him."
Nicole poured herself a glass of water, pursed her lips, and ignored his later remark. "Of course! I’m so rich, s o I ought to choose the best designer!"
Kai ignored her, grunted, and was about to undress to take a shower. "Whatevs... Don't disturb me. I'm gonna go take a bubble bath... WTF!"
He screamed in shock, so Nicole ran in to take a look.
Tigger's fur was drenched as it thumped around playing in the bathtub. When Tigger saw Kai, it roared at him without any deterring effect.
Its eyes lit up when it saw Nicole, who was standing at the door. Tigger jumped out of the bathtub and ran over to Nicole, looking extremely adorable.
"Mama! I miss you so much...”
