The Deserted Rich Beauty novel Chapter 2191

The tall mountains on both sides were straight. It looked like an artificial carving as its workmanship was simply magical.

It was gorgeous, but falling from that height would only mean death.

Nicole’s heart tightened instantly.

She looked at the sparkling dark surface of the water with a heavy heart.

Nicole could not speak, and she wanted to cry, but the person who could comfort her was not by her side.

Suddenly, someone put a jacket over her.

She paused for a moment and looked back. Eric stood there and followed her for who knew how long.

“Wear it. Don’t catch a cold.”

Nicole took off the jacket and handed it to him.

“No need. I’m not cold.”

After she finished speaking, she walked back.

Nicole guessed that the possibility of falling from the top into the water was very small. After all, it was so far away.

Maybe she was worrying too much.

“Nicole, do you hate me that much? You don’t just hate me. You hate my jacket too. If it weren’t for the earthquake today, maybe you would still think that I did this, that I wanted him to die, right?”

Nicole could hear the forbearance and coldness in Eric’s tone.

She looked up at him inexplicably and said lightly, “I didn’t think that. What you think is your freedom, but don’t accuse me of that.”

“So you’re saying that I’m despicable and petty for thinking that?”

There was no emotion in Eric’s voice.

“Mr. Ferguson, I don’t want to argue with you now because I don’t want to waste time on meaningless things.”

Nicole frowned tightly and felt a little impatient.

Eric completely fell silent.

Meaningless.

Every word he said was meaningless to her.

However, Clayton meant everything to her.

Eric had missed too many opportunities with Nicole.

What should he use to make up for these opportunities?

Nicole was devastated and anxiously wanted to search for another man, but Eric helped her anyway.

How ridiculous was that?

In the next second, Eric followed Nicole, pulled her arm, and dragged her away from a ditch in front of her.

Nicole quickly adjusted her footing and followed the rescue team without saying a word.

This time, Nicole did not wander around. She looked carefully at every shadowed area or anywhere that a person could hang on a tree.

She did not wear gloves, so her hands were full of dirt from digging. Even her skin was grazed and scratched by branches.

However, Nicole did not seem to feel any pain at all and did not make a sound.

Eric noticed that her exposed wrist was stained with blood under the swaying light.

His heart suddenly tightened.

Then, he silently asked someone to give him a pair of gloves and forced her to put them on.

Nicole did not feel the pain, but if she refused, Eric would keep nagging at her.
