Kai’s words were blunt and unforgiving.
He was poking Eric where it hurt most. The more Eric wanted to forget about the past, the more Kai
wanted to take it out and stir it up.
If Eric wanted to start over with Nicole, he had to take responsibility for his past actions. They could not
let Eric off so easily.
Kai looked at Eric coldly. He wanted to humiliate Eric viciously, but Eric really looked very pitiful.
Eric looked like a dog that lost its home.
Forget it.
”You helped Nicole quite a few times, so she can’t even cut off all relations with you even if she wants to.
Don’t blame me for not reminding you. If she decides to be with Clayton, you’d better not appear in front
of her. Mr.
Ferguson, you should at least give her this level of respect.”
Kai glanced at Eric. Eric’s identity would not allow him to stalk or pester another man’s woman.
In an instant, Eric’s jaw tightened, and his expression became extremely unpleasant.
His eyes were dark and heavy as he turned around and stared at Kai.
”There will never be this day.”
Kai laughed lightly. ’So confident?’
Eric said, ”Third Brother, I’ll go visit Nicole since I’m already here. Even if she wants to slap me, I’ll give
her my cheek.”
His eyes reverted back to his usual indifference and fortitude.
Kai’s words did not push Eric into a dead end, but rather, they enlightened Eric.
’Right, if Clayton Sloan is really with Nicole, then I’ll have to retreat, but am I someone who retreats and
keeps my distance? How is Clayton worthy of hitting on my woman?!’
Eric could not continue being negative and sad. Since he could not brush away the awful memories, he
would just have to step over them.
After that, Eric walked away. His back looked firm.
The corners of Kai’s lips twitched. ’Have I misheard? Third Brother?! Bart!’
Kai rolled his eyes and thought, ’I’ve really overestimated Eric’s cultivation!’
Eric approached the ward area. He already knew which room Nicole was in.
Thus, his target was clear. Before Eric could get close to the door, he saw the bastard Clayton Sloan
come out from inside.
Eric stopped in his tracks. His face instantly darkened. His eyes had a deep gloom and were as sharp as
a falcon’s.
In an instant, he gave off a morose and oppressive vibe.
Naturally, Clayton also saw Eric.
Clayton walked over with a modest smile and a sickly pale face.
“Mr. Ferguson, you came a little later than I thought…”
Eric grimly swept a glance at him. “Clayton Sloan, I warned you to stay away from her.”
Clayton’s voice was warm, gentle, and calm as he smiled and said, “If I stay too far away from her, will
she still be alive? I saved her, and I gave her a blood transfusion, so how can I stay away from her?”
A wave of hostility instantly enveloped Eric’s body. Eric fiercely yanked Clayton’s collar and pushed
against the wall on the side.
To Eric, the careless provocation in Clayton’s words was the fuse that ignited the bomb in him.
Eric just wanted to punch Clayton to death at that moment.
“Clayton Sloan, are you even worthy? Are those investments you made abroad still going well? Have you
cleaned up your own house? Do you think I won’t dare to kill you?”
When the two men confronted each other, their auras were too powerful.
Eric always had a domineering vibe. No one could fight him. Whoever provoked him would die.
On the other hand, Clayton always smiled gently and was neither humble nor overbearing, yet he did not
fall behind t o Eric.
Clayton’s smile carried a cold intent. His eyes were equally as sharp as Eric’s.
Usually, in front of Nicole, Clayton would deliberately hide under a mask because he did not want her to
look at him with wariness and detachment, but now, Clayton’s gentle voice carried an indifference.
“Mr. Ferguson, I know that you’re exceptionally adept in trickery, but I will never let go of Nicole. You had
her back then, but have you ever cherished her?”
