Chapter 2223 Take Another Look


    This hiding figure was captured by another man.


    Eric squinted his eyes and saw the man that was hiding in the shadows not far away.


    The man bent his body and looked sneaky, but his eyes were staring in Nicole’s direction.


    Obviously, this man had bad intentions.


    Eric immediately became alert.


    He could not let Nicole be in harm’s way.


    Eric took out his phone and asked his bodyguards to rush over.


    Then, he strode over to Nicole.


    Nicole squintedzily and looked at the beautiful scenery when someone suddenly appeared in her


    sight.

    She frowned and looked annoyed.


    Why was this man haunting her? Did he really not understand what she meant when she rejected him?


    “You…”


    Nicole was about to curse at him, but Eric pulled her up and walked toward the center of the street.


    Eric carried Chatty, who was ying happily, and looked at the other two boys. He said in a serious


    tone, “Stop ying. We have to go back now because there’s danger here."


    Nicole was startled and looked around with a puzzled face.


    “Danger? What danger?”


    She did not understand where the danger came from.


    Although thew and order here was not as good as it was in Mediania, she would not be so unlucky to


    encounter danger again, right?


    However, there was no sign of panic on the streets. So, where was this danger?


    Eric held Nicole’s arm tightly and walked out. He pointed to the ce where the sneaky figure was just


    now.


    “Look…”


    As soon as he pointed to the spot, he noticed that it was empty.


    No one was there.


    Nicole took a look, and her face turned cold instantly.


    She frowned and looked at Eric.


    “Mr. Ferguson, were you upset that I refused your invitation to dinner? That’s why you thought of using


    this ridiculous reason to disturb us?”


    Eric’s face darkened. “I didn’t…”


    His face was a little gloomy and impatient.


    He did not know how to exin it.


    While Eric looked tangled, Chatty broke free from his hand.


    “Weird Uncle, my arm hurts!”


    Chatty looked up at him with teary eyes and used him bluntly.


    Fischer quickly caught up to them and took Chatty’s hand. Then, he gently rubbed her little arms.


    Chance looked at his father in shock and did not know what happened.


    Eric’s expression changed. He let go of Nicole’s hand and looked at the corner where that person was.


    It was impossible.


    Eric did not make amotion from the beginning and did not startle anyone. How did that man


    disappear in such a short period of time?


    “I’m not lying. Someone was watching you this whole time. I suspect that he was waiting for an


    opportunity to do something to you. You’re alone with the kids, and you certainly don’t look poor, so


    you’re a good target for robbers. Luckily I showed up here. Otherwise, you all would’ve been in


    danger!”


    Eric stood there and exined what happened to her calmly.


    Nicole nced at him and curled her lips.


    “So, I should thank you for saving my life because there was no danger?”


    Nicole did not know when Eric had be so shameless.


    What danger?


    Nicole watched the bustling street. People wereughing and chatting.


    It had been so long since Eric showed up, but she did not see any disturbance or unrest.


    Obviously, Eric was talking nonsense.


    Eric was stunned for a moment. His expression was indescribably glum.


    However, Eric had always lost to Nicole, so he did not mind embarrassing himself again.


    Eric was silent for a moment. He raised his eyes slightly.


    “I know you’re repulsed by me now, but can you trust me this once?”


    Guilt and affection stirred in his eyes.


    However, Nicole looked away the moment she saw it.


    She pursed her lips and looked at the children.


    “Nevermind, it’s gettingte. Let’s go home. Grandpa is still waiting to video call you guys!”


    Nicole patted Chatty’s head, and Chatty nodded immediately.


    Chatty was tired, and she missed her grandfather very much.


    Eric opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but when he saw Nicole’s doubtful expression, he


    swallowed the rest of his words.


    Forget it. He would prove it to her.


    Nicole called the driver and waited on the side of the road for the driver to pick them up.


    Eric insisted on standing and waiting with them.


    The two adults did not speak to each other, which made it awkward.


    Chance did not dare to say a word.


    Chatty and Fischer shared their lollipops as if the different shapes of lollipops would taste different.


    Their expressions were very amusing.


    Through the ss window of a shop not far away, the limping man stood there and looked at their


    figures through the special ss.


    He felt like someone had stabbed him in his heart.


    Those two people seemed to look perfect together.


    At least, that man was more suitable than his current self.


    His eyes felt sore, and his calm eyes had no fluctuations.


    Was his happy and blessed life about to be snatched away by another man?


    ……


    The driver arrived.


    Nicole let the two children get into the car and said goodbye to Chance, who waved at them.


    Eric looked at her and hesitated to speak.


    She stretched out her hand to close the car door and did not even look at him.


    Nicole knew that she might have lost herposure, but she just could not help it.


    She would not mind having a good talk with him if he was still the same as before and knew his sense


    of proportion.


    However, Eric had clearly crossed the line.


    Thus, she did not want to put up with him anymore.


    Chatty looked at her from the side.


    “Mommy, why does that weird uncle show up all the time?”


    Nicole paused, then looked at her daughter. Read at NovelDrama.Org


    “He’s also doing business here.”


    “I don’t like him. He looks like a monster when he doesn’t smile. He’s so scary!”


    Chatty was trembling with her two small fists clenched on her chin.


    Nicole smiled helplessly.


    “Don’t talk about others behind their backs. Otherwise, I’ll tell Grandpa!”


    Chatty made a face and said, “Grandpa loves me the most!”


    Fischer pinched Chatty’s cheek and smiled. In the blink of an eye, Chatty turned around and fought


    with him again.


    Nicole smiled and looked past the car window.


    When she passed by a store not far away, she suddenly looked up.


    The man in a ck suit leaned on a cane as he limped out of the store and walked in the opposite


    direction.


    For some reason, her heart suddenly clenched.


    It hurt badly.


    She suddenly shouted, “Stop the car…”
