The Deserted Rich Beauty (Nicole and eric)
Chapter 522 I Want to Hug You

Before Ivy could finish her sentence, Nicole hung up the phone.

She even blocked the number.

A few days later, the company's team-building day arrived.

The location was in an airsoft field in the suburbs. Twelve people went, three of whom were senior executives from other companies that Stanton Corporation had a relatively good relationship with. However, Nicole never expected Eric to appear here.

He looked at Nicole and seemed to want to say something, but he was blocked by Grant, who did not give them a chance to be alone.

As expected of her big brother!

Nicole was very interested in the game. The clothes were all military-style uniforms, and the weapons were harmless guns and ammunition.

She changed faster than the others in the locker room and was blocked by a tall and dark shadow when she came out.

Everyone wore a mask, so no one knew who the other people were. Thus, there was no need to show mercy.

However, Nicole still recognized the person in front of her.

Eric Ferguson.

She glared at him and said nothing.

He was in military uniform. His tall figure, chilly aura, and hawk-like eyes were filled with a majestic coldness.

It was like that autumn five years ago when he suddenly appeared in her life on the streets of Europe.

Her mind was shaken for a moment.

Nicole pursed her lips. "Move!"

Eric looked down at her with waves surging in his eyes.

That phone call made him uneasy.

He knew that Quinn would not say anything nice.

However, when he heard that she was having a nice and intimate meal with Clayton and his son, his heart could not help but clench.

It hurt a lot.

Eric pursed his lips. His voice was low and raspy.

"I'm sorry that you had to hear those nasty words."

He clearly promised her that he would not let anyone from the Ferguson family speak ill of her again.

However, Quinn still broke the rules.

He spoke to Old Master Ferguson and sent her to a sanatorium abroad, unheeding of her screaming.

Old Master Ferguson also agreed. Even if the Stantons and Fergusons were not connected by marriage, there was absolutely no reason to be enemies with the Stantons. Nicole said, "You didn't say anything. What are you apologizing for?"

"Do you want to hear her apologize instead?"

Nicole said, "I don't even want to see her!"

Eric let out a low chuckle. He suddenly found her angry appearance very cute.

"Nicole, I want to hug you."

He had wanted to for a long time.

"No."

Before she spoke, a large hand fell on her back and pressed her to his chest, letting her hear his steady heartbeat.

Nicole was so angry that she kicked him. He did not dodge and got hit right where his wound was.

He grunted and almost fell backward.

Nicole was startled and reached out to pull him.

Then, her head collided with his chest hard.

A deep laugh rumbled from his chest.

Only then did Nicole realize that she had been fooled.

Eric reached out and straightened her helmet. He took a step back before she could do anything.

"I'll let you win later."

He spoke with certainty.

Nicole was so angry that she wanted to kick him to death!

"Big talk!"

Did he think she could not win by herself?

Where did he get his bullsh*t confidence from?

Argh. How infuriating!

However, she was wearing a mask, helmet, and sunglasses, so she could not intimidate this damned man with her expression and eyes! Grant urged her from outside, so Nicole quickly went out.

He held two drawing sticks. They were both red.

"Everyone has already been divided into groups. There are only two left, so you're in the same team."

Nicole took the stick indifferently.

Eric was very polite and stepped forward to take the stick.

"Thank you, Big Brother."

'F*ck!' Grant froze and almost fell in shock!

Everyone looked at them strangely. The words "big brother" seem to be able to separate one's soul from their body.

Nicole said, "Can we start?"

"Start!"

Nicole raised the gun in her hand and shot the back of the person in front of her without hesitation.

"Bang-"

Eric was dead!

"Hey, you're teammates!"

Another member of the red team reminded her.
