Cindy ran over as if she saw her savior.
“Mr. Ferguson…”
Mitchell did not stop Cindy, so he felt guilty.
Mitchell looked at Eric’s face, who did not seem angry. He even seemed to be in a good mood.
Cindy’s clothes were wrinkled as she pushed her way in. The makeup on her face was also smudged.
At this time, she looked wretched.
Eric glanced at her calmly and condescendingly without any reaction.
“Ms. Yeager, what can I do for you?”
Cindy tried her best to calm herself down.
“There is a problem with that project. It’s simply a hole that can’t be filled. My father was admitted to the hospital last night, and he’s still being resuscitated!”
Eric glanced at her lightly and nodded with regret.
“Oh, then why are you not with him at the hospital? What are you doing here?”
Cindy raised her head abruptly and was surprised by his cold reaction.
“You sold that project to us. Why didn’t you say there was a problem with that project? Or did you know that there was a problem with that project, so you deliberately let us take the bait?”
Cindy was more afraid of the latter.
The Yeagers collapsed in an instant like a thatched hut in the storm.
Eric’s reaction to Cindy’s questioning was indifferent. He was disdainful and not bothered to put up an act.
The unapproachable chill on his face made Cindy shudder.
Cindy tried her best not to show any fear and pretended to be calm.
Eric narrowed his eyes, which were sharp and cold.
He curled his lips, but he was not cynical.
“Ms. Yeager, I didn’t force you to buy it. I gave up the project to make it up for you guys. Everyone knows that the prospects are good. Such a situation was unexpected. The market is constantly changing. Profit and loss are about luck and taking risks. You’re also aware that I had a hard time back then. I feel sorry for you. I’ll ask my assistant to visit Mr. Yeager in the hospital on my behalf.”
As Eric spoke, he glanced at Mitchell, who was standing there.
“Send Ms. Yeager back for me.”
Mitchell nodded.
Before he touched Cindy, she lashed out.
“Don’t say these high-sounding words. I don’t believe that you don’t know anything! Ferguson Corporation has been investigating the project in the neighboring city for so long. How could you not find any problems? You clearly did it on purpose! You deliberately dumped this mess on us!”
At this time, Cindy felt that Eric was the most terrifying person.
Eric never shied away from those underhanded methods to achieve his goal by any means.
Back then, Cindy wanted to marry Eric wholeheartedly.
At this moment, she only felt a wave of fear.
Cindy targeted Chance time and time again, thinking that she had figured out Eric’s bottom line.
Eric’s reactions were all harmless.
Cindy did not expect Eric to accumulate grudges and take revenge using that project.
Eric pursed his lips and looked indifferent.
“If you think so, I can’t help it.”
He was like an irresponsible scumbag.
Cindy burst into tears when she saw his stubborn look.
“Mr. Ferguson, please have mercy on us and let us go. Please help us to tide over the difficulties. My father is overwhelmed, and Yeager Corporation is about to declare bankruptcy. We are really doomed!”
Cindy wanted to grab Eric’s arm, but Eric stepped back and kept a distance from her, avoiding her touch.
“Sorry. Ferguson Corporation’s funds have been very tight recently. I’m afraid I can’t help you. Moreover, a shareholders’ meeting is required if we were to help you, and I believe no one else will agree to help.”
Eric found an excuse.
Mitchell was a little surprised to see Eric speaking so gently and patiently.
Cindy looked at him blankly.
“For you, this is nothing but a drop in the bucket…”
Eric interrupted her. “I don’t have money. I still have to raise my son and his future stepmother. Sorry.”
Cindy gritted her teeth. Seeing that Eric could put up a better act than her, Cindy wiped her tears angrily.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Divorced Billionaire Heiress
I liked this book and wanted to read it. As I have moved into the chapters, I have found that it is unreadable due to typographical errors, including sentences that are incomplete, complete gibberish, missing elements. This is not just some misspelled words. It is actually unreadable. If you decide to fix this, let me know and I will read it....
