Chapter 1229 I Know It’s You
Nicole pursed her lips. When the words came to her mouth, she suddenly felt that what Eric wanted
might not be these words of gratitude.
However, Nicole could not give him what he wanted.

She did not have anything to offer but this.
"Thank you, Mr. Ferguson."
Eric choked, and he felt like his blood had stopped flowing.
"For what?"
Eric involuntarily squeezed his phone tightly.
Nicole said, "You were the one who helped to block the news regarding Isaac''s incident, right?"
Eric paused and was silent for a few seconds.
"How did you know?"
Nicole did not say anything and nced at yton, who was focused on driving.
Eric smiled. His tone when he spoke was slightlynguid.
"It''s nothing. It was just a small effort. I already showed him mercy by not stabbing him instead."
Nicole tried to appear calm.
"No matter what, I still have to thank you. When youe back, I... yton and I will treat you to
dinner."
Eric stood there. The blood seemed to freeze in his veins.
He stiffened and suppressed his anger.
"You and yton?"
''Did she really say that? Was she trying to thank me or piss me off?'' Eric thought.
That night, if not for the fact that so many of yton''s men showed up, Eric would not have had to put
in so much effort to keep things under wraps.
"Do you think I wanted to help him? If it weren''t for his limited ability, I wouldn''t have needed to
intervene. You should advise him to act in moderation and recognize his own strength."
Eric loosened his cor. His face was cold and sullen.
If not for Nicole, Eric did not mind pushing yton out for the Sloan family to deal with him.
Nicole was just about to speak when yton, who was beside her, suddenly took the phone from her
hand.
yton''s tone was warm and gentle as always, calm t o the point that it was infuriating.
"Mr. Ferguson, although I know that you weren''t trying to help me, I still have to thank you on Nicole''s
behalf. As for my strength, I think it''s still too early for you to judge. The Sloan family are just unable to
discern the smokescreen that foreign forces used on them. On the other hand, I think that I''m much
stronger. Goodbye, M r. Ferguson.”
Then, yton simply hung up the phone. There was still a smile on his face, but there was some
coldness i n his eyes.
After listening to yton''s words, Eric saw that the call ended and instantly could not control his
expression. He smashed the phone in his hand on the ground fiercely.
''That damned yton Sloan! Was heughing at me for losing Nicole while he managed to get her?''
Eric thought.
Nicole took the phone handed over by yton in astonishment.
She blinked, surprised that yton was actually angry.
yton had never gotten angry before.
Nicole suddenlyughed. "You told me to call and thank him, but you angered him instead?"
yton looked at her helplessly and rubbed his brows.
"What can I do? Thanking him is one thing, but he''s the one who keeps thinking about my girlfriend all
day long. He even badmouthed about me in front of m y girlfriend!"
Nicole''s smile deepened as she put the phone in her bag.
"He''s probably dying of anger!"
yton raised his brows. He sure hoped so.
Eric’s face was dark and sullen as he returned to the conference room.
The atmosphere which had originally been rxed instantly stiffened again.
No one dared to breathe loudly.
They had never seen such an angry expression on Eric’s face since he came to Liberty.
Eric looked extremely gentle earlier, but now he looked so terrifying. Could he at least give them some
buffer time between his mood swings?
"Come up with a specific n for this project before this afternoon. If it''s still the same old thing, I''ll
rece you with someone morepetent..."
Eric’s voice was cold and indifferent. His eyes were ruthless.
Everyone''s heart instantly went cold, and their faces became unpleasant.
