What Keith said to Nicole earlier was infuriating. Wendy Quade most probably got kicked in the head because of that, so they deserved it.
The corners of Keith's lips twitched. He looked at Eric and said, "Is she saying that I don’t have a brain?!
What did I say that was so wrong?”
Eric raised his eyes, which were deep and dark. His tone was cold. "What do you think?"
'Well... I admit that I went a little overboard, but that's only because I was too anxious about Wendy's life, which was Hendrick's only dying wish! How would I know that Wendy’s slight bruise looked so serious?’
"But still... That woman shouldn't have hit someone!"
'She must be so angry right now! If I really offended that woman, would she post my nudes in a fit of anger?!’
Eric's eyebrows were tightly knitted. "Take her to the hospital for a checkup. I have to leave first."
"What?" Keith was surprised. "No, I have something to do too!"
'I need to apologize to Nicole before she remembers that she has my nudes! I'm a man that knows when to give in!'
Eric did not care about Keith and left as he held his phone. Keith followed behind him closely.
Ingrid stayed where she was, puzzled. 'So, I have to accompany Wendy?'
Sitting in Kai's car, Nicole looked down at her phone reading the dozens of messages in the group chat. It was all about Ian’s regret for not attending the show.
Ian was forced to join his father on a business trip abroad, which would take half a month.
Yvette, who had left earlier, sent a few photos of herself and Nicole to the group chat. Ian's endless compliments were all directed to Nicole only, so Yvette was vexed and cursed at him.
Nicole could not help but curl her lips. 'I feel so much better now... This is what matters...'
Julie sent her a message. [Home yet?]
[Nicole: On my way. Is she dead yet?]
[Julie: The doctor just slapped a band-aid on it and left. I still need to deal with the doctor's traffic violations for rushing back here. Gotta go, chat later!]
[Nicole:... ]
Nicole could not help but chuckle. Kai glanced at her from the side. "What’s so funny?"
