The Deserted Rich Beauty (Nicole and eric)
Chapter 513 He’s Good at Walking Dogs

Everyone instantly froze after Nicole spoke.

The expressions on their faces almost crumbled.

They were not happy at all!

Looking at their shocked faces, Nicole could not help but smile as she added, "What if we're not?"

Kai's expression changed a few times. "You... Don't scare me like that!"

Nicole laughed. "Of course it's impossible. It was just a chance encounter."

They all unanimously sighed with relief.

Floyd's emotions were complicated as he gave Nicole a complex look.

"I know that Clayton is cooperating with us, but it's better if you don't get involved with him outside of business. He looks like a good person, but how kind can he really be if he can get to his current standing?" This was the first time Floyd evaluated someone so bluntly.

Nicole smiled silently.

It was a perfunctory expression of acknowledgment.

Grant said, "Why don't you go work on another project and leave the project with Clayton to someone else?"

Nicole put down the bowl. "There's no need. I know what I'm doing."

Kai clicked his tongue. "Don't be fooled. Clayton has a kid, and his conditions aren't as good as Eric's. If I had to pick, Xander isn't bad. He's obedient, sensible, and does as he's told. Most importantly, you can just send him away with money if you're tired of him!"

Nicole's mood grew complicated as she listened. Why did she feel like they wanted her to be a scumbag?

Was this the kind of person her family wanted her to be?

She had some doubts about her life.

Floyd asked, "Who's Xander?"

Nicole hurriedly stopped them and changed the subject.

"By the way, what's the company doing for this year's team-building event?"

Grant looked up at her. "The ordinary staff will make arrangements for themselves, and the top brass will go to the countryside for a picnic. Do you want to go?"

Nicole nodded. "Sure. We can invite the executives of other companies to join us. That'll also ease the competitive atmosphere."

Ferguson Corporation.

Mitchell watched as Eric sat behind his desk with his iPad, watching that video. He replayed it over and

over dozens of times without the slightest intention to stop.

Every time he watched it, his expression grew a little darker.

Nicole's words repeatedly echoed in the large office.

"I'm so rich, so why should I stay with a scumbag?"

To Nicole, he was just a scumbag.

He, Eric Ferguson, was merely a scumbag from the past!

Eric's expression was sullen and ugly, and his mood was very complicated. He did not know whether to be sad or angry.

He suddenly felt that the only reason she could casually mention the past was that she did not care anymore.

He had truly lost her.

The heartbreak felt like countless fine needles piercing his chest with no focus, agitating his heart and bleeding him dry. Time passed by the minute.

The temperature in the office was extremely cold.

Mitchell secretly raised his head to look. Eric's face was cold and solemn. The corners of his eyes were tinged red, and those beautiful and soul-stirring eyes were slightly moist.

'Is he crying?!' Mitchell's heart trembled with fear as his legs began to grow numb. 'Why am I still standing here? Will he try to silence me for seeing this...?'

Just as he was feeling torn inside, Eric suddenly broke the silence.

"That fool Toto! He took my money but didn't do any work. All he does is walk Keith's dog every day. Go ask him if he wants to get lost!"

Eric was infuriated. 'It was all that stupid Toto's fault. He never had any good ideas!'

Mitchell's heart jumped. He immediately said carefully, "A few hours ago, Madam Ferguson went to Imperial Gardens and met Toto. When she saw that he was cleaning Ms. Stanton's room, she said she would fire him..."

Before he could finish speaking, Eric raised his eyes which flashed with icy hostility. His voice was deep.

It sounded like he was gnashing his teeth.

"He's good at walking dogs. Keep him."

No matter how stupid Toto was, it was better than Quinn randomly stuffing people in!
