The Deserted Rich Beauty novel Chapter 1617

Clayton had an intuition that this matter might have been related to him somehow.

If Caleb allowed Nicole and Eric to talk before, then Nicole must have left the most important message for Eric to convey.

Who was it about?

Nicole sneered. "You didn’t because you were so selfconceited to think that you could solve it. You didn’t think that you would lose, so you didn't take my words to heart at all, even if those words could possibly be m y last words."

Eric's face gradually turned ashen.

Her accusation was even colder and more merciless than expected.

Eric did not even have a chance to retort.

There was a long silence.

Nicole lazily leaned back on the lounge chair, but her eyes were icy cold.

"I was dragged into this mess because of you, but you didn’t get me out. In the end, your interests are more important to you. Don’t deny it saying that you didn't know what would happen and other nonsense like that. A kidnapper who can't get random knows how to kill a hostage, let alone an arms dealer. We’re all

businessmen, so we can weigh the pros and cons clearly in our hearts. There’s no need to explain yourself so righteously. Besides making yourself feel better, it'll only make me think that you're more hypocritical and repulsive than I thought you were."

Nicole spoke unceremoniously. She impatiently tore off Eric's hypocritical mask and uncovered the ugliness underneath it.

Suddenly, Nicole felt so satisfied.

Nicole would not pity someone who had the advantage but left her to die, no matter how much she used to love him back then.

She was really blind to have loved him before.

Her words were vicious and cold as they meant to hit Eric's weakest spot.

How was he worthy to pretend to be a romantic?

Eric’s face stiffened. His eyes seemed to be defeated.

He thought that by apologizing to her, Nicole would at least maintain a superficial courtesy with him.
