Luca's expression turned extremely glum.

His fists were tightly clenched as he tried his best to restrain his anger.

Nicole could not stand the noise and opened the door just to see the two men sleeping at her door. She looked bewildered.

"Um... Toto..."

Luca's face was taut as he said, "Miss, you should go in and rest."

Nicole laughed and shook her head.

"It's too noisy for me to fall asleep."

"

It was so loud that Kai asked why she turned up the bass so late at night.

It felt like an earthquake!

Luca could no longer hold back and kicked Toto.

Toto's body shook. He opened his eyes in shock and immediately showed his loyalty.

"Ms. Stanton, why haven't you slept yet? Don't you worry, I won't allow any danger to come near you. As long as Luca doesn't leave, I won't leave either..." Nicole was speechless.

She closed her eyes and looked at Luca helplessly.

"Go sleep in the guest room. I'll be fine."

Luca wanted to say something, but he could only follow orders.

He was a world MMA champion, yet he was forced out by this pig.

Luca's face was glum as he carried his sleeping gear and left. Toto was completely awake and followed him quickly.

"Wait for me! Let's sleep in the same room. Otherwise, I'll get nightmares. I promise I won't snore or grind my teeth..."

Nicole was instantly relieved to see that those two were gone.

Suddenly, the door to the study opened.

Eric rolled out his wheelchair, looking quite exhausted.

He frowned. "Nicole, you're finally back..."

Nicole wrinkled her brows. "Something wrong?"

"You're supposed to take care of me. Shouldn't you ask me if I'm well today?"

Eric's voice was low and raspy, and not as cold as it was just now. He even seemed somewhat fragile.

Nicole's heart could not help but tremble a little. Even so, she looked at him expressionlessly.

"Mr. Ferguson, how are you feeling today?"

Eric bowed his head and chuckled. "Much better now that I see you."

Nicole rolled her eyes at him. She was already used to Eric's sweet talk.

When he recovered, Nicole would leave and never wanted to see him again.

"I'm going to bed. See you tomorrow."

"Wait! I want to take a bath..."

Eric suddenly called out to her.

Nicole stiffened and looked at him incredulously." What?"

'What did he mean? He wants me to bathe him?!'

Eric pursed his lips and explained in a helpless tone," The doctor said that I can't get my right leg wet. It's inconvenient for me to shower by myself. You wouldn't want my injuries to worsen so that you'd have to stay here with me forever, right?"

That sounded quite reasonable, especially when Eric said it with such an innocent and harmless face that did not have the slightest unseemly thought.

Nicole stared at him for a few seconds. Eric's frankness made it seem like Nicole was the petty one.

"Okay, I'll get changed and go over later. You can get undressed and wait there. Your hand isn't crippled, right?"

Eric sighed in relief. His eyes lit up for a moment.

"Okay, I'll wait for you."

His voice was pleasant, and his heart leaped with joy.

Eric was thinking about what Toto said to him before Nicole came back. "Mr. Ferguson, a man has to have certain advantages to attract women. Your advantages are money and sex appeal. Ms. Stanton doesn't lack money, so you have to seduce her with your body!"

'Wow, it worked! I guess Mitchell's cousin isn't that useless after all. I'll pass his probation early...' Eric thought to himself.

Nicole returned to her bedroom and laughed lightly as she stood at the door. She raised her eyebrows and thought, 'He wants a bath, huh? I'll make sure he gets a good bath!'

Thinking of this, Nicole sent a message to Luca.
