The man looked at Nicole with cold eyes and put the phone to his ear.
“Mr. Ferguson, our supposed friendly meeting was ruined by you. Do you regret it?”
If Eric was really engaged to Angie, then they would have been sitting together cordially for dinner at that very moment.
Eric’s voice sank. “Caleb, what do you want? Just say it straight.”
The man laughed lightly and raised his eyes to look at Nicole coldly.
“Mr. Ferguson, you’re not as cold-blooded and heartless as what Angie described. You’re very affectionate toward Ms. Stanton.”
His tone was mocking.
Eric suppressed his anger and impatience. Eric did not dare to provoke him because Nicole was in his hands.
“Caleb, you’d better make sure that every strand of her hair is intact. Or else, I’ll make sure Angie gets a terrible death.”
Rage and hatred surged in his chest. Eric did not care if what he said was overstepping the limit.
The man’s face sank instantly. “You dare?!”
Although the two men were separated through the phone, their auras were cold and uncompromising.
Nicole stood there and closed her eyes. She felt very speechless.
Was her safety not the most important matter at this moment?
Eric said something, which made the gloom in the man’s eyes disperse. He laughed and spoke.
“Great, I’ll wait for you.”
After saying that, he did not hang up and handed the phone to Nicole. His voice was extremely cold.“ Ms. Stanton, you can say your last words.”
Nicole took the phone and held back the grievance in her heart as she listened to Eric speak over the phone.
“Nicole, don’t be afraid. I’ll be right over.” Eric’s voice was uncharacteristically gentle.
Nicole ‘s eyes were sore. She suddenly thought of another person.
She opened her mouth. Tears streamed down her face.
“Eric…”
“Hmm?” Eric waited for her to continue.
Nicole bit her lower lip and said, “Tell Clayton not to blame himself and not to be anxious. I’m fine.”
She knew that this situation was not favorable to her, and she also knew that she could not offend Eric now.
Otherwise, Nicole, as the only bargaining chip, would not be worth that much to Eric.
After all, they were betting on Eric’ s fondness for Nicole.
However, all Nicole could think about was Clayton.
She did not know how anxious Clayton would be after she disappeared.
There was never a moment like now that Nicole wanted to hear Clayton’s voice so badly.
Even if Eric was angry and refused to save her, she was still willing to follow her heart.
The past could not be forgotten easily, but to Nicole, it was only a memory of what she
experienced.
Now Nicole felt like the past was not so difficult to face anymore perhaps because it was no longer so vivid. Thus, it did not hurt to think about it.
Nicole had truly walked into a new relationship.
Clayton was like the morning sun, and the dependence she had on him was addictive.
After Nicole said that, the man on the side sneered lightly and snatched the phone away.
He hung up the phone without waiting for Eric’ s response.
Nicole was not sure if Eric would convey the message.
Eric most likely would not.
Indeed, Eric would not relay that message.
Eric looked at the blacked-out screen with a stiff and dark face. Darkness was brewing in his eyes, like the calm sea before a huge wave.
Clayton Sloan was everywhere!
Eric’s chest sank fiercely as if he felt that he had truly lost Nicole.
This time, Eric knew that he could not get her back.
In the days of Eric’ s carelessness, Nicole had been accepting Clayton’s goodwill.
There was really someone else who could replace Eric and walk into her heart.
Eric felt like he was hit hard by a hammer. His heart was ashen.
He was depressed for a moment, but he dared not delay any further.
Eric asked Mitchell to come in. He said, “Book a flight to Southeast Asia.”
