Chapter 1602

A Fake Deep Love

Mr. Wilheim was overwhelmed and sighed. “I hope nothing happens. I’m old and exhausted already. I
just want to go back and rest…”

Nicole smiled and turned to leave.

Mitchell could not stop her.

However, Logan could not stop Eric either.

Eric caught up to Nicole in a few steps and pulled her arm.

“Nicole, don’t go…”

There was a tremor in Eric’s voice.

Nicole turned around and looked at him. Her eyes were frigid.“ Let go.”

Eric’s face turned pale, and he let go.

“Nicole…”

He did not know what to say, but he knew that he could not let her go just like that.

It was as if he was too ashamed to see her, but he still wanted t. o explain something to her.

Everyone thought that the deep love he had for her was just a fake show of devotion.

Did Nicole think the same too?

No, that was not true.



Eric loved her. Of course, he was serious.

It was just…

Eric’s eyes reddened before he could speak.

Nicole crossed her arms, seemingly impatient. She exuded a sense of detachment that rejected
others.

Eric stood in front of her and felt uncomfortable.

He was only uncomfortable because of guilt.

Logan caught up to them. “Mr. Ferguson, Ms. Stanton isn’t well and has to go back immediately. Please
don’t delay her.”

Logan’s tone was very firm and could be considered impolite.

However, Logan knew that even if Nicole did not say anything, she still held a grudge. :

It was impossible for Nicole to have anything to do with Eric

anymore.

In that case, Logan did not have to worry about anything.

Those words undoubtedly pierced Eric’s heart. His face paled.“ She’s unwell?”

Eric immediately reacted and took a step forward, appraising

her. “Are you hurt?”

The anxiety in Eric’s eyes looked particularly ridiculous.



Nicole was a little surprised by his reaction, and the corners of her lips curled.





“What’s a little injury? I’m lucky enough not to be dead. Don’t you agree, Mr. Ferguson?”

Her words were like sharp knives that cut through his heart, leaving bloody traces.

Eric’s face changed. His expression tightened for a moment before turning remorseful. He looked at
her, filled with guilt and heartache.

“Nicole, I’m sorry…”

His throat bobbed as he saw her vague smile.

The rest of his apology seemed to be stuck in his throat. He could not say a single word.

Nicole looked at him and could not help her lips from curling into a mocking smirk.

She looked at him and turned around to leave, not saying anything.

Eric wanted to go after her, but Logan stopped him again.

“Mr. Ferguson, there’s nothing to say even if you go after her. Ms. Stanton hasn’t recovered yet and
can’t stay for long. If you keep pestering her, she will just feel tortured. You don’t want her to end up
hospitalized and looking wretched in front of everyone here, right?”

Logan’s words made Eric stop in his tracks.

Eric’s gaze was exuding such coldness as he looked at Logan.



Logan felt a chill go down his spine, but after thinking about i t, he braced himself and went over.

Fortunately, Eric did not continue to chase after Nicole.

Eric’s heart seemed to be struck by a boulder, making him unable to breathe.

He stood there and forced himself to calm down.

“She’s hurt?”

Logan pursed his lips. “Yes, she was hospitalized for more than half a month before she was saved. If
not for Mr. Stanton’s absence and Ms. Stanton’s required presence here, she would not have come…”

He suddenly felt like he said too much and secretly cursed

Eric’s aura for being too cold and intimidating.

It made people subconsciously submit to him.

Logan immediately regained his composure and coughed.“ Please make yourself comfortable, Mr.
Ferguson. We’ll take our leave now.”

Then, Logan did not wait for Eric’s reaction and turned to go after Nicole.
