Old Master Ferguson smiled. "We feel bad about how w e treated Nicole in the past. If there’s an opportunity, we'll like to make it up to her."
Floyd waved his hand. "It's alright, they’re just clueless kids. The past is in the past, and Nicole doesn't care about it anymore, so we don't need to take it to heart. Just get along normally."
"Clueless..." Eric repeated in a whisper. His dark eyes flickered slightly, then he curled the corners of his lips. "Yes, we should get along normally."
Eric raised his eyes to look at Nicole and gave her a suggestive smile.
Noticing the scorching gaze from across the room, Nicole subconsciously looked up and saw that Eric had been staring at her with smiling, gentle eyes.
'What's he smiling at?’
Nicole choked a little and instantly lost her appetite.
She put down the cutlery in her hand and rolled her eyes at him.
Somehow, the man opposite her did not get angry. Instead, his smile deepened.
Eric saw how vexed and restrained Nicole was and suddenly felt that the woman in front of him was very adorable. She even looked so pretty when she rolled
her eyes. 'How did I not notice before?’
Floyd Stanton and Old Master Ferguson were chatting feverishly. Grant glanced at his sister and Eric.
The exchange of glances between these two and that atmosphere felt surprisingly weird.
"By the way, Mr. Ferguson, I heard that quite a few of your ships were damaged at sea. If there is a need, Stanton Corporation's fleet can help to transport your cargo as well."
Grant smiled and appropriately changed the topic to draw Eric's attention to him.
Nicole was just about to breathe a sigh of relief when Eric uttered a simple "okay” and continued smiling at Nicole again.
Seeing this, Nicole got impatient. 'Is he done?! What kind of tricks is he playing?'
Nicole immediately looked at Floyd. "Dad, I suddenly remembered that I have an appointment with Yvette, s o I'll get going first."
Anyway, Nicole had already thanked the Fergusons, s o staying for the rest of the dinner was irrelevant.
Floyd nodded. "Okay. Go on then.”
Nicole smiled. "Bye Dad! Goodbye, Chairman Ferguson."
