Chapter 69 I Want My Blood Back


    Eric Ferguson felt his heart clenched and his eyes darkened. He did not know anything about Nicole.


    He was unaware that she could y the violin so well, nor did he know that she smoked.


    "I never smoked in front of you because I was afraid you wouldn’t like it before, so of course, you never


    had the chance to see it."


    Every time Nicole donated blood, she would feel very weak. Eric apanied Wendy Quade, and


    Nicole’s onlypany was cigarettes. Nicole was particrly addicted to smoking during those tough


    days.


    The corners of Nicole''s lips hooked up, but her eyes were slightly despondent. A momentter, she


    returned to her usual self.


    She nced at Eric''s drooping eyes and smiled yfully.


    "Want to hear my conditions?"


    Without waiting for his reply, Nicole went straight to the point.


    "Get Wendy Quade to give me however much blood I''ve donated to her. It doesn''t have to be in one go.


    Anyway, she can finish repaying me within a year."


    Eric''s head jolted up. "What?"


    Nicoleughed. “I thought about it. My blood is so precious, so I should use it to save people who are


    actually worth saving, rather than wasting it on this vile woman. I was so stupid before, but it''s still not


    toote to wake up from my delirium. I want my blood back. In exchange, I''ll give you the pipe, then we


    won''t owe each other anymore.”


    Wendy Quade was only trying to spite Nicole, so from time to time, she would pretend to be sick or hurt


    and would ask Nicole to transfuse blood to her. Nicole knew all about it, but Eric never saw through it.


    In the past, Nicole would feel aggrieved, but now, it all seemed irrelevant.


    Once Wendy returned her blood, Nicole could draw a clear line with the past and could finally feel


    whole again.


    ''Isn''t Wendy Quadeing back soon? I want to spite that woman! Which will he choose? His family


    heirloom or Wendy Quade?'' Nicole was looking forward to Eric''s answer.


    She smiled leisurely and threw the cigarette butt in the ashtray in front of her, then stood up and left the


    room with her purse.


    "You don''t need to give me an answer so quickly.


    Think about it.”


    Looking at her back, Eric''s gaze becameplicated all of a sudden.


    ''How much did Nicole hate Wendy? How much did she hate this marriage that she wanted to get back


    every single drop of blood?''


    Eric called his assistant Mitchell. "Check how much blood did Nicole donate to Wendy throughout the


    years."


    Mitchell paused for a moment before he replied, “Yes, sir."


    Within a few minutes, Mitchell came back with an answer to Eric''s question. "President, Ms. Nicole has


    donated a total of 14,400 ml of blood to Ms. Quade. The total amount of blood of an adult is about


    4,000 to 5,000 ml. The blood donated by Ms. Nicole over the years is equivalent to the total amount of


    blood in three adults. That means Ms. Nicole had drained every drop of blood from her body three


    times..."


    As soon as Mitchell finished his sentence, Eric hung u p the phone.


    ''She literally bled herself dry three times because of m e?!’

    However, he waspletely unaware of her grievance and fortitude in the past three years.


    Eric''s heart felt like it was pressed down by a boulder and he found it hard to breathe.


    Nicole''s condition was to get Wendy to pay her back within a year. This showed how much she hated


    them to her core.


    Eric felt frustrated. He knew that there was no way he could exchange Wendy for the emerald pipe.


    When Eric was in the army, that bomb should have fallen on him, but Hendrick pounced on Eric and


    blocked the bomb with his body. Before Hendrick died, his only worry was Wendy’s health, so Eric


    promised that he would do whatever possible for Wendy to live a long and healthy life.


    Thinking of the past, a trace of pain shed in Eric’s eyes.


    When Nicole walked out, she saw Logan standing not far away, waiting for her. The two of them walked


    to the doorway and met with Gerard Lichman, who was sitting in the lobby. He smiled in a doting and


    gentle way while he talked to someone on the phone. 1


    Seeing Nicole, Gerard quickly said a few words and hung up. He strode over and said politely, "Ms.


    Nicole, did you have a pleasant chat?"


    "It is for me, but probably not for the guy inside..."


    Nicole gave a faint smile.
