Eric's deep eyes stared intently at Nicole's perfect lips. She did not put on lipstick, but her lips were pretty, pink, and peachy.
He wanted to taste it.
When he lowered his head, Nicole suddenly kicked him viciously in the shin.
Eric stumbled two steps back and looked at her in shock.
She was extremely cold and did not want to speak to him, so she turned around and left.
The veins on Eric's forehead jumped abruptly. He stepped forward and clutched her wrist.
"Nicole, you said that you'll forget about the past, so why can't you give me a chance? You can even accept Clayton Sloan, so why are you rejecting me?"
Nicole turned to look at him quietly. "Can you even compare with Clayton?"
Eric was transfixed with a single sentence.
He stood there stiffly. 'Is she angry because I threw away that trash gift, or is it because of my display of affection?’
The man did not say a word. His jaw tightened, and he did not let go of her.
"You've decided to stay with him?"
Nicole stared at him for a few seconds. "Yes."
Eric seemed to hear the sound of his heart cracking open.
"So, you took him to meet your father?”
Nicole said, "Yes."
"You'll get married later?"
His voice was getting heavier and colder.
Nicole looked at him and curled her lips slightly. "Yes."
Eric’s face turned gloomier. The waves of emotions in his eyes surged, and his hand that squeezed her wrist was trembling.
The air was dead silent with a faint chill.
Eric felt that every pore in his body started to freeze. H e felt so numb from the bone-piercing cold.
He was willing to get retribution for his faults, but he could not lose Nicole.
"Nicole, even prisoners get a second chance at life. Am I not worthy of forgiveness in your heart?"
His voice was extremely deep. Those dark, deep eyes were bloodshot. The corners of his eyes were also red.
