Chapter 2293 Unless It’s Him
Hamilton raised his eyebrows and looked at Nicole.Nicole glanced at him.
“Will you help me check on Chatty and Fischer?”
Hamilton flashed a cute smile.
“Sure!”
He just wanted to piss Eric off on purpose.
Nicole and Eric were the only ones left in the room.
Eric raised his eyes irritably and sneered.
“Did you meet this guy at some club? Is he a scammer?”
Nicole’s face was slightly pale.She was exasperated because of Eric’s unreasonable criticism and struggled to stay calm.
However, they were in public, so Nicole tried her best not to lose her temper and become a laughingstock.Her patience reached its limit.
“Eric, don’t go too far.Whoever I want to be with is my freedom!”
Eric took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and chuckled softly.
“Freedom?”
His eyes looked frenzied as if he could no longer hold back.He suddenly reached out and grabbed her wrist.
“Nicole, I gave you enough freedom.Since Clayton refuses to come back, you have no choice but to accept your fate!”
His eyes were dark and sinister.
Eric only let go back then when he lost to Clayton because of his guilt.He also could not bear to hurt her further.
However, when he saw Nicole talking and laughing with other men and going around like they were a family, he felt like a joke.He approached her repeatedly but was rejected over and over again.
Who did she think he was? The chill and unwillingness that he kept suppressed in his heart surged in an instant and made him lose his mind.
Eric waited for Nicole to consider him again, but she was so cruel.
How could he watch her fall in love with someone else again? Eric could not bring himself to do that.
Nicole tried to break free from his grip, but she could not.Her heart ached, and she did not believe that he would do something to her in public.However, she still felt uneasy.
“What are you doing?”
Eric casually sneered.
It was as if a part of his heart exploded.
He did not want to pretend anymore.
How could he pretend to be a gentleman? How could he pretend to have a modest and harmless face like Clayton? Eric was a selfish and mean person who only did things his way.
Eric stared at her intently.
“What am I doing? You’ll find out soon enough…”
After he finished speaking, he dragged her out.
Nicole turned pale with fright.
“Eric, you b*stard! Let go of me!”
She was horrified and wanted to shake him off, but she was not as strong as him.
For some reason, she felt that Eric was no longer bothered to pretend.
Eric was revealing his terrifying side.He no longer wanted to keep up the act, so he reverted to being the stubborn and indifferent Eric again.
No one would dare to stop Eric if he wanted to take her away.However, at this moment, Kira suddenly stepped out and stood in front of Eric.
“Get out of my way!”
Eric yelled.
At this moment, he was exuding a terrifying chill.
Kira gritted her teeth and thought about Clayton’s instructions.
Thus, she did not dare to retreat.
“Sir, Ms.Stanton is our VIP customer.Please let go of her.”
“I said, get out of my way!”
Eric emphasized it again with a cold voice.
Kira gestured for the security guards and waiters to surround Eric.It looked like they did not intend to let Eric take Nicole away without resistance.
Eric raised his eyebrows with disdain, let go of Nicole’s hand, and rolled up his sleeves.The surrounding air turned cold.
“Call your boss over.”
His voice was low and unwavering, cold and menacing.
Kira bit her lip and said calmly, “This is my boss’s instructions.We have an obligation to protect the customers who dine here.”
Eric snorted lightly as if he was looking down on this high- sounding excuse.
Eric always had special treatment everywhere he went unless the boss of the restaurant did not know when he was.
Nicole rubbed her wrist and calmed her emotions.She subconsciously looked in the direction of the bathroom.
Fortunately, Chatty and Fischer did not come out yet.
Otherwise, they would get frightened.
Eric was a real lunatic.
Nicole said in a deep voice, “Eric, you should leave.
I never want to see you again!”
Eric’s eyes turned fierce as he sneered.
“Who do you want to see then? That boy toy? Do you think that I’m someone who will hand over my things to others? Unless Clayton shows up right now, I will never let you go again!”
Eric would rather be ruthless and keep Nicole by his side than watch her fall into another man’s arms.
Even if Nicole hated him, he would do anything for her, just like how Keith treated Livia.
Keith and Livia were living happily together.
Nicole just thought that he was ridiculous and wanted to say something.
Kira’s expression changed as she retreated to the side and quickly walked up to the man.
“Sir…”
The man in black clothes walked over slowly with a cane.
Although the man was limping, he was very steady.His face was cold, indifferent, forbearing, and restrained.He looked even more handsome and stern.
Eric was shocked to see him, and his face turned pale instantly.He subconsciously glanced at Nicole.
Nicole looked at the man standing there with red eyes.She held back her tears and did not intend to reunite with him.Her body was tense as she stood there.She was like a hedgehog who guarded herself with thorns.
Clayton glanced at Nicole, suppressed the emotions in his eyes, and looked at Eric coldly and oppressively.
“Mr.Ferguson, we haven’t seen each other for a long time.Are you sure you want to make a scene in front of so many people?”
Clayton knew he should not have come out in this miserable state.
However, when he saw Eric bullying Nicole unscrupulously and insulting her, his blood boiled.
“Unless Clayton shows up right now, I will never let you go again!”
That was what Eric said.
Thus, Clayton came out.
Clayton could not stand others bullying her.He did not dare to imagine how Nicole endured these rumors when he was not around.
Even Eric could say that about her, let alone other people.
Eric’s eyes gradually turned cold as he stood there.His face turned glum.
Eric was silent for a few seconds and smiled mockingly.
He sneered and looked at Nicole.
“So, he came back a long time ago, but you didn’t know? Nicole, he’s toying with you, but you’re only wary of me?”
After Eric finished speaking, he took a deep look at her, turned around, and left the restaurant without hesitation.
The only person he was afraid of was Clayton because Clayton was willing to do anything for Nicole.
Eric knew that he had no chance of winning against Clayton, so there was no need to continue this entanglement and embarrass himself.
