The Deserted Rich Beauty novel Chapter 2247

The corners of Nicole’s mouth twitched. She took a deep breath and made herself look more energetic.

“Did Chatty behave herself and eat after she woke up?”

Kai was helpless. “She ate, but she didn’t behave herself. She’s exactly like you! She wants me to sing and perform for her while she eats. What the hell! I thought I went back in time twenty years ago when I was babysitting you!”

Why did he still have to go through this when he was in his thirties?

Nicole smiled helplessly.

“Third brother, she never asks for these things when we eat with her. You obviously pampered her too much!”

Kai slumped helplessly on the sofa and looked exhausted.

“Well, am I allowed not to pamper her? That little thing is smarter than a monkey. It’s more tiring to coax her to eat than being on set!”

Nicole laughed helplessly.

“So, have you eaten?”

Kai nodded. “Yeah, I ate. I got someone to deliver the meal to me. Chatty fell asleep after she got tired from playing just now.”

Nicole breathed a sigh of relief. “Alright. I’ll go check on her and wash up. You should go to bed early too!”

Just as Kai was about to stand up and go back to his room, he inadvertently saw something at the door.

He narrowed his eyes and clicked his tongue.

“Eric gave that to you, huh?”

Nicole paused and hummed.

Kai chuckled and touched his chin.

“He really doesn’t know how to buy gifts that people like, but he has good intentions. Oh well, at least he’s sincere. But his emotional intelligence is a little low.”

Nicole took a deep breath.

“If you don't want to rest, you can send the gift back.”

With that said, she went straight into her room.

Kai was speechless.

He shot himself in the foot by being so nosy.

Nicole slept soundly.

Early the next morning, the cruise ship had docked by the time they woke up.

Everything was calm like a dream.

Nicole had nothing much to pack, only a few items she brought with her.

Chatty obediently ate breakfast under Nicole’s gaze and wanted to run around and play.

However, Kai picked her up and walked out.

Roland followed behind Nicole and looked dispirited.

Nicole glanced at him. “Are you feeling better, or are you still seasick?”

Roland was taken aback. Then, he nodded quickly. “I’m feeling better after taking some medicine.”

In fact, he was not seasick at all.

However, the suspicion he had yesterday shocked him, so he used seasickness as an excuse for his gaffe.

At this moment, Nicole was still concerned about him, which made him feel a little guilty.

Thinking of this, he cheered up.

Nicole nodded.

They had to go downstairs before disembarking to say goodbye to their acquaintances and to get to know some people in the industry.

Of course, a few disinterested bigwigs had already left early from the private passage.

Although Nicole was not interested either, Roland mentioned before that many of the guests here were friends who had worked with Clayton in the past.

Thus, this was a good opportunity for future collaborations.

Besides, Michael’s aunt was among them, and Nicole wanted to know who she was.

Kai was ahead of them with Chatty.

Nicole and Roland fell behind.

While waiting for the elevator, they saw two men — one standing, and one sitting.

When Eric saw Nicole, he smiled gently, but somehow, it was not heart-warming.

“Since you’re here, shall we go together?”

Nicole’s eyes flickered. She refused.

“We’re not going the same way.”

The elevator arrived.

The butler, who was in the elevator, smiled and looked at them.

Jeff, who was sitting in a wheelchair, heard Nicole’s voice, but he did not look back.
