The Deserted Rich Beauty novel Chapter 293

Mitchell followed Eric from behind, carrying his suitcase. He looked at his boss' despondent and cold figure and could not help but remind him in trepidation.

"President, Lee’s phone..."

Lee, the driver following behind them, watched in trepidation as his few-hundred-dollar phone was almost crushed in Eric's hand.

Mitchell was familiar with Nicole's number, so Eric found a random number to call her.

After all, Eric had saved her, so something should have changed between them.

Who knew that once Nicole heard his name, she would hang up the phone without hesitation?

Eric's face was glum as he deleted the call record and threw the phone back to Mitchell. Eric had such an unapproachable aura about him.

Mitchell gave the phone back to the driver, Lee, then quickly caught up to Eric.

"President, the famous painter Mr. Wilhelm invited you to attend the soft opening of his fine art exhibition restaurant this evening..."

Stanton Mansion.

Nicole hummed a tune while picking out an outfit for this evening’s banquet in her dressing room. This would be the first time she attended a public event after her return.

Thus, she had to look her best.

That phone call from Eric was like a hiccup. She did not take it to heart at all. She wanted Eric Ferguson to know that she was grateful, but she would never offer up herself to him!

Kai was forced to sit in the living room and watch Nicole parade outfit after outfit like a happy little bird. At the rate that she was changing, she probably wanted to wear all the latest collections of the season.

'I suddenly feel like going back to work...' Kai thought.

Floyd had someone bring over the custom-made and exquisite pink diamond necklace. The diamonds on it were large, unique, and precious.

The necklace was paired with a light pink slim fit dress that Nicole just tried on which outlined her slender waist. Her long hair was let loose and draped over lazily behind her back. The dress and the necklace had such a gentle, stunning, and harmonious coexistence, which made Nicole very satisfied.

It was neither exaggerated nor inappropriate.

Kai narrowed his eyes. When he saw the necklace, he was slightly stunned.

"Dad, isn’t that for your daughter-in-law?"

Floyd rolled his eyes at him. "Only blind people will be interested in you..."

'So, this is my future wife's share?!' Kai was speechless as he felt his father’s contempt.

Nicole blinked her beautiful eyes innocently.

She said in a playful and lazy voice, "K, this design isn't reserved for my sisters-in-law, but you should have a sense of crisis..."

Kai choked on his words. He stood up and was about t o get dressed to accompany Nicole to the event, but Nicole stopped him.

"Someone else will accompany me."

"Who?"

Floyd and Kai spoke in unison, guarded.
