The Deserted Rich Beauty novel Chapter 467

Before Nicole could say anything, she watched out of the corner of her eye as Ivy Harrison quickly went upstairs with Keith's suit jacket draped over her.

The way Ivy scurried away was really quite pathetic, but no one noticed.

Nicole looked at Eric with a calm face. His eyes were dark like ink.

She suddenly felt a dull pain in her chest, but she took a deep breath.

After the pain eased, she spoke in a low voice, "Eric Ferguson, I don't want to torture you. I want you to be relieved sooner.”

Her voice was light, calm, and serious.

"It's not that I haven’t thought about our relationship during this time. Mr. Ferguson, thank you for the efforts you've put into me, but... I’m sorry. I just can’t fathom being with you again."

Nicole was overly calm as she spoke.

Eric's face was extremely cold. His eyes were still and his body was tense. His fingers were white from clenching the armrest tightly.

Somehow, Nicole also felt a twitch of pain, but it was just for a short moment.

She quickly regained her composure.

It was better to rip off the band-aid.

Instead of getting entangled in this endlessly, it was better to make a clean cut. That way, both of them could be relieved.

During this time together, Nicole could finally see the situation with the most peaceful state of mind.

Nicole was not touched by Eric. Rather, she pitied her past self and wondered why she did not get his serious treatment at the beginning.

The more she thought about it, the more uncomfortable she felt, and the more she wanted to escape this feeling.

Seeing the pain and suppressed emotions in Eric’s eyes, Nicole felt a little heartbroken. It felt a little suffocating.

Nicole lowered her eyes and was silent for a moment. She looked up and smiled.

"It’s late. Thanks for bringing me here. I'll go back first."

With that, she stood up and left.

"Nicole..."

He called out to her and smiled with a pale face.

"You friendzoned me? I don't accept it!"

Eric's gaze was complicated as he looked at her. His voice was low and raspy.

"No matter what you say, I won't give up on you.

Whether you're happy or not, I'll keep waiting for you."
