The Deserted Rich Beauty novel Chapter 867

However, Eric's natural look soon returned. It was even more natural than usual. In fact, it was overly natural...

"Can't I ask as a friend? Or are you saying that you’re afraid your boyfriend will be angry? Nothing happened between us anyway. Do you need me to explain it to him?"

Nicole frowned for a long time, unable to understand Eric's thought process.

According to her understanding of him, he would have gotten angry and dashed out the door, or he would sneer and warn her...

There was something wrong with that remark.

She rubbed her temples. Was the world changing too quickly?

"No need."

She refused coldly.

Eric looked as if nothing happened. He gritted his teeth and said words that were different from his status, personality, and temper.

"I respect every choice you make, but I want you to be happy. If you choose him, I'll wish you happiness.

You're a good person. If I become your boyfriend, I’ll never let you suffer. No matter what, I’ll support you."

Eric said that all in one breath, which made Nicole freeze for several seconds.

Why did those words give her a sense of deja vu?

Just as she was about to open her mouth to tell him to act like a normal person, Eric spoke again.

"Our relationship is unusual, but we'll be cooperating a lot at work. Your boyfriend wouldn't mind, right?"

Eric kept saying the word "boyfriend”, which sounded extremely piercing to Nicole's ears.

However, she did not want to deliberately correct his words.

Otherwise, it would be like she did not want Eric to misunderstand her relationship with Clayton.

Nicole pressed the space between her eyebrows and a light suddenly flashed in her mind.

She thought of someone.

Nathaniel Ferguson!

Why was Nathaniel at the celebration banquet so similar to the current Eric?

She could not help but let out a laugh and looked at Eric.

"Nathaniel and you really are a family!"

Eric’s face darkened for a moment. He seemed to understand what Nicole was laughing at.

Did she see through it so quickly?

'That's impossible...' Eric felt that he performed perfectly.
