The Deserted Rich Beauty (Nicole and eric)
Chapter 459 There's a Party

Lil Michael thought, 'No one can take away my Pretty Lady, not even Daddy!' When Eric saw this, a light and warm smile spread across his face.

Suddenly, Eric felt that Lil Michael was not so much of an eyesore as before.

"Mr. Sloan, don't get angry. Your son has always been like this. He takes after you..."

Clayton was speechless.

Before Clayton said anything, Lil Michael immediately pulled Nicole's hand and ran away in a fit of anger.

Nicole followed the boy to a quiet place, where he finally stopped and panted.

"Pretty Lady, among us three big men, who treat you the best?"

Lil Michael blinked his bright, clear eyes and said the most innocent words.

His sapphire eyes looked so pure.

Nicole was stunned. 'Three men? Lil Michael, Eric, and Clayton? Big men?'

She could not understand what Lil Michael was thinking, but she still coaxed him.

"Of course it's you!"

Lil Michael laughed happily and patted his chest proudly.

"That's for sure! I'm the best! The two of them are ugly, stingy, and old, so they simply can't compare with me!"

Nicole nodded. "You're right!"

Lil Michael was a little shy as he stepped forward and took her pretty hand.

"Then... Wait for me to grow up. We'll be together forever!"

Nicole could not help but laugh. 'Lil Michael is such a cutie...'

She reached out and pinched his soft little cheek. "Okay, I'll wait for you to grow up."

Lil Michael happily hugged her and rubbed his head against her palm. He was delighted.

Nicole took Lil Michael back to the group. Everyone continued to go around as if nothing had happened.

Floyd was happy with this trip.

After Clayton left in the afternoon, Nicole wanted to change destinations.

She proposed to go to Santos Island.

Naturally, no one had any objections, so they left on the same day.

Santos Island was perfect for surfing, especially in this weather. Unfortunately, Nicole was not in the mood when facing Eric and Toto.

The next evening.

The light breeze blew away the heat.

Eric owned the hotel that they stayed in, so it was cleared out long before they arrived.

Floyd went out to mingle with the locals while the rest stayed at the hotel.

Nicole wore a light apricot long dress. She looked vibrant, gentle, and very striking.

Eric was in the lobby's lounge listening to the hotel manager's report on this quarter's performance. He was a little surprised to see Nicole coming out of the elevator. "Going out?"

Nicole replied, "Mm, there's a party."

She then walked out the door.

Eric pursed his lips.

He did not get to ask her where the party was when he saw a Porsche parked at the hotel entrance.

Soon after, the person in the driver's seat got out of the car.

It was Clayton Sloan.

Eric's eyes instantly narrowed with danger and sharpness.

He wheeled himself over to them. Clayton was opening the door for Nicole like a perfect gentleman. When he saw Eric, he paused for a moment and nodded slightly. "Mr. Ferguson."

Although Eric was sitting in a wheelchair, his powerful aura did not diminish one bit as he confronted Clayton with cold eyes.

"Mr. Sloan, what a coincidence..."

Clayton was the wild card in this entire trip.

'He left and came back?' Eric thought.

Clayton was never welcomed in the first place. He could really affect Eric's mood at any time.

The sudden breeze blew Nicole's silk scarf off her shoulders and landed at Eric's feet.

Seeing this, Eric bent over to pick it up.

Just then, the other end was grabbed by Clayton.

Eric raised his eyes, which were dark, deep, and filled with coldness as he met Clayton's equally uncompromising gaze.

It was an unspoken rivalry.

No one let go of the scarf, nor did they take the initiative to speak to each other.

For a time, the atmosphere was stagnant....
