Chapter 1601

Even He Did Not Understand

However, Nicole was dead. Was there any use for the rest?

In the end, it was just revenge. It was to comfort Eric’s guilty and restless heart.

It seemed like no matter what Eric did to make amends, Nicole would not appreciate it.

Mitchell sighed. The two people who were originally close grew further and further apart, and now, they
might never have the opportunity to be together again.

Even Mitchell did not understand it. Eric loved Nicole so much, but why did he hesitate when Caleb put
forward his conditions?

Why did Eric use the mentality of a businessman to challenge the psyche of an arms dealer?

Would he negotiate with them on the terms?

In that case, was it worth negotiating the conditions?

Angie was clearly sent to the airport in Southeast Asia, but Eric suddenly changed his mind and wanted
to leave Angie as the final bargaining chip.

Mitchell did not understand why.

Was Angie more important to Caleb, or was Nicole more important to Eric? Caleb taught Eric a lesson.

Some deals were not about business, and the opponent had no right to choose.

Mitchell watched as Eric got his revenge as if he had gone mad. He cried at the explosion site and then
came back empty.



It was as if his soul had left his body.

Eric loved Nicole, but he was also the one who killed Nicole.

No matter what Eric did, it was too late.

When Mitchell saw the invitation sent by Stanton Corporation, he wanted to cheer Eric up, so he gave it
to Eric. Eric would not have been indifferent to them, so he came.

Unexpectedly, they saw Nicole in the flesh!

Mitchell forgot to react for a moment.

Eric had already arrived in front of Nicole. His tall and straight figure seemed slightly bony. Eric was so
thin that he looked like a different person from the past.

During that period, it was as if he was the one who died.

His dark, pitch-black eyes had a raging undercurrent in them, as if his emotions were about to spill out.

There was anger, surprise, shock, and an expression of losing something and getting it back. Nicole did
not miss any of the expressions on his face. However, her reaction was extremely light.





It was so light that no trace of emotion could be seen.

It was like she was looking at a stranger.

“Nicole…”



Eric’s voice was low and hoarse. His high and mighty aloofness instantly disappeared as he frowned
deeply, staring at her intently.

It was as if he was afraid that she would suddenly disappear.

“You’re not dead…”

His lips were pale as he murmured.

Nicole raised her eyes. Her gaze was indifferent and detached.

What else was there to say?

She was alive, but no thanks to him.

On the contrary, she was unlucky enough to encounter such an accident because of him.

The most innocent one in this situation was Nicole.

In the end, Eric was not even willing to lend a helping hand.

Eric said that he loved her, but that was just all talk.

Nicole would never believe Eric’s bullsh*t again unless she was brain-damaged.

“Mr. Ferguson, excuse me. We didn’t know you were coming, s o we weren’t able to attend to you
properly. Ms. Stanton still has work to do. Please excuse us…”

Logan politely went over to stand in front of Nicole, acting very decently.

He was an employee with professional ethics and never swung his fist. This was his professionalism.



Logan could not possibly sympathize with this unworthy person anymore.

However, Eric stood there motionlessly, stiff and straight. There were a few hints of caution in his
brooding eyes.

“It’s really you?”

Logan grew a little annoyed.

To the side, Mr. Wilheim interjected. “Why is he acting like he doesn’t know you?”

Nicole naturally could not ignore Mr. Wilheim’s words.

Her lips curled, and she spoke in a clear and cold voice.

“He doesn’t know himself.”

At those words, Eric’s body lurched.

Mr. Wilheim was confused and wanted to say something, but Nicole paused and looked at him.

“The contract is signed, so I’m going back now. Mr. Wilheim, you can find me anytime if you need
anything.”
