Chapter 680 I''m Already Here
The other end of the call was silent. Every second of listening to Nicole’s careless condemnation was
tormenting for Eric, i
Although it had been such a long time, every word she said was like a knife that cut out his heart little
by little.
Eric was looking for every bit of pain at such a joyous and harmonious time.
It was as if that would alleviate his guilt.
When Nicole was impatient and wanted to hang up the phone, Eric suddenly spoke again. His voice
was a little mute.
"Nicole, I want to see you."
Nicole was speechless. "But I don’t want to see you!"
"I’m at your door. Can you let me in?"
Eric did not give Nicole the opportunity to refuse. He sat in the car and saw so many people in the
courtyard under the snow. Fireworks rose in clusters and looked so beautiful and dazzling.
That liveliness did not belong to him.
Nicole paused in her footsteps and thought, ‘What day is it? Isn''t the Ferguson family busy with their
own celebration?''
She pursed her lips. "I won’t open the door. Hurry up and get lost."
Eric let out a lightugh and started the car again.
“Toote. Someone has already opened the gates...”
Nicole stiffened. The call was already disconnected, so she hurriedly walked down the road.

She did not believe that the butler would let Eric in without her permission.
In the courtyard.
Kai carried Lil Michael on his shoulders. Everyone was talking andughing not far away.
At the front entrance, the butler watched with difficulty as the Range Rover drove slowly inside.
After stalling for so long, the gates were opened by Xandria, who suddenly ran over.
Mr. Anderson thought, ''How could I exin this to Nicole?’
"No, you can''t open the door without orders from the Chairman and Ms. Stanton."
Xandria, who was running over excitedly, looked insouciant.
"Mr. Anderson, that man is Eric Ferguson. We can''t afford to mess with him. What ce can’t he go to
if h e wants to?" "But Ms. Stanton is not going to..." The butler patiently exined.
Xandria interrupted him impatiently.
"Enough. You''re just a butler, so don''t just do as you please. Mr. Ferguson may be here for business.
Will you be able to afford any losses? Besides, he''s already a t the door. Nicole wouldn''t be so
insensitive as to shut him out, right?"
Xandria then ran over and saw the man who had gotten out of the car. His ck attire blended in with
the darkness, as if he was a king who walked out from the darkness with a majestic aura.
She went over to Eric with an umbre, shading the heavy snow for him.
Her face unconsciously reddened.
"Mr. Ferguson, pleasee in..."
Eric tidied up his cor, nodded slightly, and looked at Xandria somewhat strangely. "Who are you?"
''The new maid?'' Eric thought.
Xandria hurriedly introduced herself. "I''m the Stanton family''s rtive. Nicole is my cousin."
Eric nodded and smiled gently. "Hello."
Luckily, Eric did not ask Xandria if she was the new maid earlier.
Xandria did not expect Eric to smile at her. This was probably the closest she had been to Eric
Ferguson, and this kind of admiration made her feel moved.
"The fireworks show just now was really beautiful! All of us saw it. You''re so attentive, Mr. Ferguson."
Eric walked in with a smile at the corner of his lips. Although he was annoyed with Nicole''s noisy
cousin, h e remained patient.
It was all for Nicole''s sake.
"Thanks."
Floyd and the rest saw Eric. Floyd''s eyebrows knitted slightly in surprise.
"Mr. Ferguson, what brings you here?"
Floyd looked at the butler behind him, who looked torn as he nced at Xandria. Mr. Anderson could
notin in front of so many people, so he could only lower his head in silence.
Eric had a faint smile. His temperament was reserved, noble, cold, and stern. At this time when he was
looking at Floyd, Eric bent at the waist and bowed in greeting.
"Happy New Year, Chairman Stanton. I came to pay m y respects."
