The Deserted Rich Beauty

Chapter 417: Determined Cripple



Nicole smiled.
"Thank you, but I’m going upstairs first."
"Sure, sure!"
Nicole was halfway up the stairs when Luca opened the door.
She swept a glance to the back and saw Eric being pushed in.
Toto greeted Eric excitedly, which made his little pink apron sway with his movements.
"Mr.Ferguson, you're back! A man like you who works hard every day yet still maintains such charm is the best fit for Ms.Stanton!
You two are simply perfect for each other! Sigh...I don't even know what words to best describe you..."
Luca was about to go upstairs after Nicole.
When he heard Toto's words, he suddenly paused in his footsteps.He turned around.His fierce face had a few moments o f
hesitation.
"I think there's only one way to describe him."
Toto's eyes lit up.
He ran over excitedly because this was the first time Luca willingly carried the conversation.
It was a good sign of their strengthening relationship.
"What word?"
"Determined cripple," Luca answered.
Nicole raised her eyebrows and could not help but laugh.
Eric's speechless and already dark and sullen face turned colder.
Luca was not highly uneducated and felt that there was nothing wrong with what he said.
He just strode over to Nicole.

Toto froze for a moment.
He could feel the gradually suffocating vibes from Eric.
He suddenly regretted looking for a sense of belonging with Luca.
What a misstep! Eric's sharp gaze looked up the stairs.
Nicole instantly withdrew her smile.
‘I'm only crippled because of her! How could she laugh at me?! No conscience!’ Nicole felt a little guilty and coughed slightly.
"Mr.Ferguson is an extraordinary boss with tens of thousands of employees under him, so of course, he can't slack off"
Their eyes met.
Eric looked stunned for a moment before the corners of his lips curled up into a smile.
The gloom in his eyes faded away and was replaced with tenderness "Nicole, you have a good eye"
Nicole was still the best.
Eric felt like his whole body was doused in honey because all he felt was sweetness.
It was very comforting and warm.
This was the first time Nicole praised him like this’ Turns out that I left a pretty good impression in her heart!’ Nicole breathed a
sigh of relief and thought, ‘Wow, this man is easy to coax.He's not mad after saying such perfunctory words?’ Toto thought to
himself, 'l said the same thing all the time! Why is Mr.Ferguson so happy when Ms.Stanton says it? Is this the power of love?’
Luca heard Nicole's words and thought that he had belittled Eric earlier.
He looked at Eric very sincerely and asked, "Mr.Ferguson, would you like a bath later?"
He hoped to express his guilt with actions.
The house was completely silent.
Toto's eyelids twitched fiercely.

He looked at Luca's serious face, then glanced at Eric's cold, stern face.
Soon, Toto understood what happened last night.
'My wonderful plan was ruined?!’ Nicole raised an eyebrow and saw that Eric was about to die from exasperation.
She did not say a word and hurried back to her room.
Soon after, Nicole received a call from Clayton.He was asking if Nicole wanted to be his female companion for a private
networking event.
Clayton's voice was calm as he said, "I found a clue to your car accident.It's related to someone who will be at the reception
today."
Of course, Nicole agreed without hesitation.
"I'll go right away."
When Nicole came to Imperial Gardens, she did not pack any gowns for formal occasions.
Thus, she picked out a silk dress from the dressing room.
She looked incredibly stunning.
As soon as she came out of her room, Eric coincidentally came out from the study.
He saw her outfit and frowned slightly, wanting to speak.
