The Divorced Billionaire Heiress chapter 28
Eric Ferguson quickly left the table, leaving Keith stupefied as he received hostile glares from Nicole’s friends.
The taut string in Keith’s heart suddenly snapped.
Keith felt that those people led by Yvette just wanted to eat him alive.
‘Eric left me like that? Aren’t we bros?! ‘
Keith looked at the people in front of him and bit his lower lip as he spoke with no dignity, “Can you please spare me this time?“
The whole group said in unison, “No! “
Downstairs.
Nicole came out from the side door where there was no crowd. She had just sent a text to her big brother, so his driver should be arriving soon. She also sent Yvette a message.
“Nicole…“
A raspy voice called her name as Eric’s tall and brawny figure stood at the side door. Nicole was stunned for a moment, then immediately put on her aloof and guarded look.
Noticing her change in expression, Eric lowered his eyes slightly.
“What’s the matter, Mr. Ferguson?“
The light at the side door was dim and elongated their shadows. When Eric took a step forward, Nicole took a step back, establishing a clear boundary between them.
Eric smirked and threw the lit cigarette in his hand aside. He continued to approach her and stared at her closely.
“Nicole, Ingrid provoked you first at the restaurant, so I’ll get her to apologize to you.“
Nicole lowered her eyes and laughed for a moment. Suddenly, she stopped smiling and looked so cold with a trace of derision in her eyes.
“You…you…“
Keith was so exasperated that he became speechless and covered his private parts with both hands.
Nicole’s gaze was cold and her tone was stern as she said, “If you dare to mess with me again, I’ll post this photo for the whole world to see! “
‘Does he think that I’m the same stupid woman from three years ago? How dare he mess with me?’
As soon as Nicole turned around, Grant Stanton’s driver was waiting by the roadside. The driver bowed politely and waited patiently for Nicole to finish her business.
Nicole did not even glance at Eric and bypassed him, then sat inside Grant’s luxury car. The car gradually drove out of sight, and only then did Eric withdraw his gaze.
Somehow, Eric felt uncomfortable seeing that Nicole’s face was unmoved and filled with mockery without the slightest hint of shyness or evasion when Keith ran out n@ked.
However, when Eric looked back at the events tonight, from Nicole’s violin performance on stage to the poker dice game, his original impression of the well-behaved and quiet Nicole suddenly changed. Every move she made was such a mystery. It felt like there was a thin layer of fog that surrounded her, making it increasingly impossible to see through her. Thinking of this, the bottom of Eric’s heart became irritable again. Seeing Keith standing there staring at Nicole’s departed car, Eric could not help but frown. He tossed the jacket in his hand on Keith’s head and said, “Let’s go! Do you not feel ashamed?”
