The Deserted Rich Beauty (Nicole and eric)

Chapter 2412 Malicious Speculation

None of them answered Cindy’s question, which made the situation turn awkward in an instant.

Cindy pursed her lips in embarrassment.

Nicole had the highest status among the people in the room. Thus, even if Nicole said something

harsh, Cindy would not dare to retort Nicole.

Julie kept an indifferent attitude. She did not talk, nod, or answer anything.

She was just wary of Cindy.

Cindy had bad luck ever since she joined their game. She used to be quite successful at the poker

table, but she did not win a single round this time.

Selena, on the other hand, kept a huge smile.

Nicole and Julie won some and lost some.

After a few rounds, Chatty ran over from the opposite side of the room. She was sweating profusely as

she held her small arm out to Nicole.

“Mommy! Daddy wants to talk to you!”

Nicole paused and looked at Chatty’s smartwatch which doubled as a phone.

She was stunned and thought, ‘Where’s my phone?’

Nicole muted her phone and forgot about it.

She quickly held Chatty’s little arm closer to her lips.

“Hello?”

“Have you had enough fun? It’s time to come back home, don’t you think?”

Clayton’s voice was deep and hoarse. He sounded tired, but he was still gentle as he teased her.

Nicole could not discern what he was feeling as if he was trapped in a thick fog in the night.

However, it was clear that he was very patient and doting toward Nicole.

Nicole glanced at the cards in her hand in disappointment. Although she did not want to leave yet, it

was indeed quite late.

“Okay. I’ll go back right away. Are you done with your social engagement? Should I pick you up?”

“You didn’t drink?”

Clayton paused. He knew where she was.

Nicole laughed. “I brought two children with me, so of course I can’t drink!”

“Good job! I’ll reward you when we’re at home. I’ll wait for you at the entrance then.”

Clayton hinted at something, and Nicole was immersed in that tender feeling.

Nicole smiled and put Chatty down.

Chatty could not wait to share the new world she discovered with Clayton.

Nicole laughed and looked at the three people opposite her.

“I’m going home. Let’s play again next time?”

Cindy finally breathed a sigh of relief and stood up.

“Sure, let’s meet again next time.”

Cindy had already lost hundreds of thousands of dollars in one night.

Even though this was not a huge amount of money for her, she was still not in a good mood because

she lost.

Thus, Cindy wanted to end the game a long time ago.

However, Cindy did not want to bring it up first. Otherwise, Selena would think that Cindy could not

afford to lose.

Selena glanced at Cindy with a sly smile as if she was mocking Cindy’s stubbornness.

However, Selena did not expose Cindy.

Selena looked at Nicole and Julie. “Come over and play again next time!”

The two ladies nodded with a smile. Each of them took a child and left.

Selena did not send them off and only waved at them casually.

Cindy glanced at Selena probingly with a complicated gaze.

“Are you that close with Nicole?”

Selena sneered.

“What? Do you think I’m not worthy to get to know people in your circle? Sorry to disappoint you, but

Nicole is not like you. She doesn’t look down on people or threaten them. She doesn’t care about

people’s identities and backgrounds to see if they’re worth making friends with. In short, she’s a million

times better than you!”

Cindy froze for a few seconds before she sneered.

“Are you still holding a grudge against me for what happened in the hospital last time?”

Selena turned her head away. “No. I just got to see your true colors. Don’t make me seem like I’m the

petty one.” Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

The corner of Cindy’s mouth twitched.

There was a bit of playfulness in her eyes.

“Well, since you guys know each other well, did you notice a coincidence?”

Selena was puzzled.

“What coincidence?”

Cindy glanced at Selena indifferently. She sized up Selena’s exquisite facial features and bewildered

gaze and felt the urge to laugh.

“You and Nicole are very alike, not only in appearance but also in personality. So, you should know why

Eric helped you so many times, right? I did a background check on you and found out that he donated

blood to you. Do you know why he donated blood to you when there were plenty of blood sources in

the hospital?”

Selena did not want to listen anymore and interrupted her abruptly.

“I don’t want to know. You don’t need to say these things to provoke my relationship with Nicole. I

already told you that I don’t like that man! After all, not everyone likes to pick up trash.”

Cindy seemed to have heard something funny.

“Are you saying that Eric is trash?”

Cindy could not catch her breath and felt suffocated.

“Fine. I hope you’ll keep thinking that way. Don’t you try to get in between me and Eric! After all, if he

was unwilling to get into a marriage alliance, I wouldn’t have gotten a chance to get to know him. He

chose me first. That’s why my company could cooperate with him and have the opportunity to develop

further. That’s also why your appearance affected me, so don’t blame me for speaking and doing harsh

things to you. If you see things from my perspective, you may even think that what I did is right.”

The corners of Cindy’s mouth twitched as she looked at Selena, who was in a daze.

Then, Cindy looked away and went downstairs without even saying goodbye.

It was as if it was an insult to her to say another word to Selena.

Of course, Nicole could look down on her, so she could also look down on Selena.

This was the natural food chain in upper society.

Selena sat stiffly on the chair. Cindy’s voice was echoing in her head.

She wanted to interrupt Cindy, but she suddenly wanted to know why Eric helped her over and over

again.

Eric did not look like a kind person who would meddle in other people’s business.

Was it because Selena looked like Nicole?

Selena did not think of it.

However, Selena pitied Eric even more.

Selena felt a little uncomfortable.

She took a deep breath and thought, ‘Why did Eric donate blood to me? Because he’s a fool!’

Selena felt much happier after changing her thoughts. Coոtent of Drаmаոovels.cоm

Cindy was just jealous, so she did not like seeing other people happy either.

Selena had a bad day, yet Cindy still came over to her bar to talk nonsense.

With that, Selena thought that she should be more grateful to Nicole.

If Cindy knew what Selena was thinking, Cindy would probably go crazy.

Nicole took Chatty and Fischer to pick Clayton up.

Then, they went home talking and laughing.

On the way home, Clayton asked about Chatty’s French homework.

Chatty blinked innocently and spread her arms confidently.

“I’ve learned everything, and I finished my homework! Mommy can prove it!”

Clayton glanced at Nicole, who was driving, and smiled with satisfaction.

“Of course. Daddy trusts Mommy!”
