Read Chapter 794 of The Divorced Billionaire Heiress-By I Wanna Eat Meat
The person who spoke among the crowd was a skinny man with a baseball cap who looked like a local. Although the man looked inconspicuous as he stood there, his temperament was still very different from those polite journalists.
Nicole retracted her gaze and ordered Logan in a low voice, “Find the man who spoke out and get him under control, then hand him over to the police.” That man was certainly not a reporter. He most probably came here to cause trouble under Lincoln Zelman’s coercion. Logan hesitated.
“But if I leave you here…” No one would be there to protect Nicole. Nicole pursed her lips. “It’s okay, no one will notice me here. Just go and come back quickly.” They thought about many defenses, but they did not expect someone to sneak in with the press. Logan nodded and obliged.
After all, in this environment, calling someone would attract attention. “Tell us! How much did you charge them to sell out your husband?” The man below the stage was still shouting and stirring up everyone’s emotions. The woman on the stage obviously did not expect this situation.
She could only go onstage to say these things after countless people came to her door to analyze the pros and cons. Thus, she did it for the sake of her daughter and disregarded her own reputation. When the woman was asked this in front of so many people, she instantly became flustered. In less than a minute, the situation turned intense.
The man with the baseball cap might have gotten a partner in crime because someone in the crowd actually echoed his words.
Nicole could not help but frown. She subconsciously turned to look carefully at those reporters. The next second, the man with the baseball cap suddenly threw a mineral water bottle at the woman’s body, which smashed onto her. “Were you colluding with them to set your husband up? Give us an explanation!”
In an instant, the scene was uncontrollable. There was an uproar. Nicole’s face changed slightly. Just as she was about to speak, she heard someone shouting at the top of his lungs. “Nicole Stanton is right there! Let’s ask her!”
Nicole did not have time to do anything. A mineral water bottle suddenly flew in front of her. She was in her wheelchair and could not dodge it. ’Damn it! I shouldn’t have let Logan go!’ Nicole thought.
Seeing that the bottle was about to be thrown at her head, she secretly clenched her teeth and thought, ’Sand City must be cursed!’
In the nick of time, there was sudden darkness in front of her eyes, as if someone had blocked her face with their body. The bottle was thrown at that person’s back, then fell to the ground.
Everyone saw the person who was blocking Nicole. In an instant, the scene was silent. Nicole raised her head and looked at Eric. Her face was obviously shocked. ’Why is Eric here?!’ Eric was wearing a black shirt with its hem loosely tucked into a pair of black pants.
The diamonds on his cuffs had a cold, sharp luster. He looked so handsome, high, and mighty. His black eyes were icy and sullen with no other emotion on his face. When Nicole met Eric’s gaze, his pair of black and sunken eyes under those thick eyelashes looked like an abyss. He looked so noble and stern, like the god of hell.
Nicole was stunned for a moment. She was just about to speak when Eric withdrew his gaze and turned around. His voice was frigid and deep. “Bring them in!”
Two middle-aged women and a young girl’s eyes were red as soon as they entered. They looked at the wife of the murderer on stage with hidden anger and hatred in their eyes. However, looking at the man in the baseball cap among the group of reporters, they could not help but point at him.
“It’s you! You’re Lincoln Zelman’s brother-in-law! You’re the one who did Lincoln Zelman’s dirty deeds and bribed the murderer to tamper with the construction site and killed my husband! I know you. You used 820,000 to threaten us and shut us up. You’re so despicable!” That statement was like a huge rock thrown into a pond that set off a huge wave.
