Chapter 59 It Means Rejection

Eric Ferguson did not make a sound on

the side, but his eyes had a chill in them.

Nicole laughed lightly and took lan’s arm.

She raised an eyebrow and said, “What

does it matter to you how many men !

change or how many people I date? Mr.

Ludwig, do you wanna date me too?”

Keith was dissed and felt infuriated. ‘Why

do I always get bullied by Nicole?!

“You? You’re not my type!”

“To be honest, the last time I saw your

body, it’s not that great. You’d better date

women with no taste. I’m very strict

about my requirements on men’s

physique.”

‘How dare you say my body’s not great!’

Keith’s face turned red and white as he

shook with anger, but he did not dare to

say another word. His nudes were in her

hands, so it left him with no choice but to

retreat.

He also heard what Nicole implied. ‘Is this

woman threatening me?’

lan laughed at the side. “Her standards

have always been very high. Mr. Ludwig, i

f we continue talking, it’ll affect my boo’s

appetite!”

One glance at Eric was enough to affect

Nicole’s mood!

Nicole coldly glanced at Keith, ignored

the man beside him, then walked inside.

Keith was so infuriated that he almost

jumped up behind them. “This woman is

too much! How dare she insult me for

having a bad figure? Is my body not

great?”

Eric’s face was surprisingly cold. He

snorted lightly. “You think it’s good?”

He was very annoyed that nothing was

going his way lately. He did not get an

appointment with Nicole and that matter

with the emerald pipe was still

unresolved. When he recalled the scene

where Nicole had seen Keith running

naked, the dreary feeling lingered in his

heart. He felt inexplicably frustrated.

Keith was once again defeated. He did

not know why Eric was throwing shade at

him and blamed it all on Nicole.

When he went to Eric’s office to look for

him, he coincidentally ran into Eric’s

secretary, Mitchell, who was contacting

Nicole’s secretary, but unexpectedly, he

was rejected!

The two of them then came out for lunch

and saw Nicole on a date with lan Carter,

so how could Eric be in a good mood?

Suddenly remembering something, Keith

hurriedly asked, “I heard that your family

heirloom was auctioned off by your

mother and sister?”

At the mention of this, Eric’s face became

even colder and he did not speak.

“Who bought it? Why don’t you just spend

more money to buy it back?”

Eric glanced coldly at Keith. “Nicole

bought it.”

Keith did not know what to say and only

let out a faint “oh”. “That would be difficult

Perhaps after seeing those two men that

Nicole despised, she did not have much o

fan appetite and felt uninterested in the

meal.

They had some wine, so Nicole planned o

n going home to rest after lunch. The

wine lan recommended was sweet in the

mouth yet it burned her throat. It also had

a high alcohol percentage because she

felt tipsy after just one glass.

Nicole would have suspected that lan

had spiked the wine if it were not for him

being tipsier than she was at the moment.

She held her forehead, called Logan, and

told him to get someone to pick her up.

She then intended to go to the bathroom t

o wash her face and sober up a bit.

Nicole did not walk very steadily, but she

still managed to make her way to the

bathroom and wash her face. After she

sobered up, she regretted coming out

with lan.

She remembered the route back to the

private room, but when she turned a

corner, she bumped into someone.

“Sorry…”

As soon as she raised her eyes, Nicole

saw Eric’s cold face with his eyebrows

tightly knitted together. She instantly

sobered up and immediately took a step

back to keep her distance.

“Mr. Ferguson?”

Eric noticed her movement and his eyes

sank slightly. “What a coincidence,

Nicole.”

Nicole raised her eyebrows. “It’s not. I

was about to leave.”

She was stopped by him before she could

walk past him.

“Let’s talk.”

“Talk about what?” Nicole looked at him

puzzled.

“You know what,” Eric spoke and locked

his eyes onto her.

Nicole laughed and no longer felt tipsy. “I

don’t think there’s anything to talk about

between us. For work matters, please

contact my assistant.”

Her phone rang at that time. It was

probably the driver. Just as Nicole was

about to leave, Eric said, “You can state

any condition you like, but I must take the

pipe.”

‘So he’s here for the emerald pipe. Old

Master Ferguson must’ve found out since

it’s been a day. I guess Quinn and Ingrid

must be pretty miserable now…’

“Mr. Ferguson, do you still not

understand? Since yesterday, I ignored

you guys no matter what conditions you

offered. It means rejection.” Nicole

smiled brightly.
