Nicole pursed her lips and coughed.
“Chance, it’s been a long time since we met. Why don’t we go together? I heard that the restaurant in this hotel is great, and the children will like it. Will you help me taste the kid’s menu so I can take it back Chatty later?”
Chance’s eyes flickered as he looked at Eric timidly.
He did not dare to speak, let alone promise Nicole anything.
Of course, Chance was willing to join Nicole for dinner and taste the menu for Chatty, but he was afraid of Eric.
Eric glanced at Nicole with complicated eyes. Although he was very reluctant, he still allowed it.
“Nevermind. I’ll let it go this time. If you eat junk food again, you won’t have to eat for the day.”
Chance nodded timidly.
Eric looked at Nicole with a relaxed expression.
“Let’s go.”
Nicole reached out and took Chance’s little hand.
Chance’s wrinkled and pitiful little face gradually softened. He raised his head and smiled at Nicole from the bottom of his heart.
He was thankful to Nicole.
Just as Eric was about to follow them into the elevator, he suddenly saw his driver at the door, hesitating to speak.
Eric thought something was wrong, so he looked at Nicole and said, “You two can go up first. I’ve already reserved the table and will join you later.”
Nicole let out a sigh of relief because she did not have to share an elevator with him.
Eric walked over. “Do you have something to say?”
The driver nodded and rubbed his hands.
“Mr. Ferguson, I want to ask if Young Master Chance got a stomachache…”
Eric frowned and looked at him silently.
Without Eric asking any more questions, the driver told him the whole story.
“Young Master Chance hasn’t eaten for a whole day and couldn’t withstand the hunger. Initially, I bought two hamburgers for myself, but he told me that he was starving, so I gave him one of the burgers. Now that I think about it, I wasn’t thoughtful enough. How could I let Young Master Chance eat that kind of fast food? I was afraid that the hygiene of the fast food chain wasn’t up to standard, and Young Master Chance would get a stomachache, so I was a little worried...”
Eric looked at the driver with dark eyes and mixed feelings.
All of a sudden, his gaze became complicated.
Just now, Chance looked like he was about to cry, and he seemed to be condemning Eric’s irresponsibility as a parent.
The child had not eaten all day, so of course he would be hungry.
Eric was not even aware.
It was common for Eric not to eat, but he forgot to ask someone to bring food to Chance.
Damn it!
His face turned glum, and the driver was still wondering if he had done something wrong.
“Mr. Ferguson, I’m sorry. I won’t do it again...”
The driver thought he had made a mistake by feeding someone like Chance fast food.
Eric would skin him alive.
Less than three seconds passed.
Eric glanced at him with a dark face. “Never mind.”
The driver breathed a sigh of relief, and his face relaxed.
Eric’s voice was deep as he said, “When we get back to Mediania, you can go to Mitchell and ask him to increase your salary by 20%.”
The driver was stunned for a moment. He was so shocked that he did not react.
Eric had already turned around and walked into the elevator.
The driver got such a big surprise that he did not know how to react for a while.
When Nicole and Chance went upstairs, the hotel staff did not recognize Nicole, but they knew who Chance was.
The waiter came up immediately.
