Chapter 1563 Don’t Be Afraid


    Caleb, who was outside the door, felt amused and knocked on the door.


    "Go on, Ms. Stanton, what else do you want to say to M r. Ferguson?"


    Caleb put the phone on the floor, not knowing whether to speak to her or to Eric.


    "Mr. Ferguson, you only have half an hour toe here. If you don’te over, this ce will be


    detonated, and Ms. Stanton will turn into ashes...”


    His voice was cold, hoarse, and a little out-of-control.


    The phone was on speaker mode, so Nicole could clearly hear Eric''s voice.


    Nicole''s tears kept flowing down her face.


    "Caleb, don''t you dare touch her!"


    Eric''s voice was also a bit manic and hysterical.


    Calebughed. "Mr. Ferguson, I''ll give Angie to you since I don''t want her anymore. Whether or not you


    can keep Ms. Stanton depends on your own ability."


    His voice made people feel despair.


    Caleb knocked on the door and bid Nicole goodbye extremely politely.


    "Goodbye, Ms. Stanton."


    It was as if he expected her certain death.


    What a way to torture people.


    Even if Caleb did not believe that Eric did not love Nicole or that Eric would really get on the ne,


    from the time Eric nned to put up this act and push back the conditions, Caleb was already looking


    forward to this day.


    Didn''t Eric say that he did not love Nicole?


    Then Eric could watch her die.


    Caleb was not a businessman who would bargain. He was a psychotic arms dealer and a terrorist who


    kills without blinking.


    Eric Ferguson was still too inexperienced to deal with Caleb.


    The sound of Caleb''s departing footsteps was just as slow and light as when he came.


    Nicole''s heart seemed to be immersed in the cold seawater as she quietly waited for time to pass.


    When Nicole touched her face, she felt some wetness.


    Thirty minutes.


    That was her final deadline.


    Eric''s voice came through from the phone outside.


    "Nicole! Nicole, do you hear me? Where are you now?


    I''ming over!"


    Eric spoke eagerly. He never felt so anxious before.


    He always seemed to have a good idea of what to expect and was sure of his victory.


    Nicole blinked her eyes andughed.


    That love at first sight on the streets of Europe back then really cost Nicole her life.


    Now, the person who was clinging to her and thest voice she heard was still his.


    It really felt a bit ridiculous.


    "Nicole, how are you? Where the hell are you?"


    He was anxious as hell.


    Nicole spoke calmly. Her voice was low.


    "Eric..."


    Eric immediately responded. "I''m here... I''m here, Nicole! Don''t be afraid. I''ll go over to save you


    immediately..."


    Nicoleughed. "Don’te. Forget it, just leave.”


    She did not want him to be thest person she sees.


    It was better for him to leave.


    Eric was silent for a few seconds. His throat moved, and his voice was dry.


    "Nicole, I wasn''t really going to leave you behind. I just wanted Caleb to think that you''re not so


    important to me so that he won''t torture you and won''t make those


    unreasonable demands anymore..."


    His voice was pleading and remorseful. He had never felt so powerless.


    If Eric knew what Caleb was thinking, Eric would have agreed to all of Caleb’s conditions at once.


    No matter the cost, Eric did not want to lose Nicole.


    However, in the end, he still put her in danger.


    Moreover, everyone including Nicole knew that Eric had abandoned her.

    Nicole listened to his words that were said with a trembling voice.


    Her expression was dull, and she wanted to cry, but she could not cry anymore.


    Nicole was silent for a moment. "Eric, did you tell yton what I asked you to convey earlier?"


    She suddenly asked him with some expectation in her heart.


    However, a few secondster, Eric’s voice was hoarse and dry as he said, "No."
