Nicole’s attention was on the situation in front of her. Those punks also had a good sense. They were
fighting ruthlessly with her bodyguards, but no one went to make a move against Nicole.
Out of the corner of her eye, Nicole suddenly noticed that Hector Leach stood up and secretly wanted to
run.
She wrinkled her brows and pursed her lips. Hector was the key to subduing these people, so she could
not let him get away.
Nicole was just about to go over and drag him back, when she suddenly heard Logan shouting in panic,
“President! Be careful!”
She froze and suddenly felt an eerie cool breeze at her back that approached her. She subconsciously
became tense and realized that someone was sneaking an attack on her.
It also seemed too late to dodge it. It was unavoidable.
Just then, Hector suddenly lunged forward to her. His body seemed uncontrollable, full of shock and fear.
His speed was faster than the dumbfounded Nicole. He then took the hit from the person who sneaked
up from behind Nicole.
There was a dull thud.
The next second, Hector screamed miserably while he covered his head and began to curse.
“What the f*ck did you hit me for?!”
”You’re the one who jumped on me…” The sneak attacker spoke weakly.
“Who dares to kick me?!” Hector was shaking with anger.
Nicole did not turn around. When she raised her eyes, she saw Eric coming over with a group of people
in an imposing manner.
Eric’s upright figure was clad in black. He looked like a devil descending from the darkness with scarlet
eyes that were gloomy and brutal. He seemed to have walked out of hell into another hellish situation.
The wind was very cold and pelted at their faces. However, Eric did not seem to feel the cold at all.
He walked in front of Nicole. His eyes were dark and deep, containing too many complex emotions.
What could not be concealed in his eyes was the hostility that oozed out.
Eric was angry that Nicole had put herself in danger, but he was even more infuriated that someone
dared to make a move on his beloved.
He looked down at her. His eyes slowly descended down her body. When he saw the baseball bat in her
hand, his eyes flashed for a moment.
“Why are you here?” Nicole asked calmly.
There was no doubt that she was shocked the moment she saw him.
Without Eric, Hector’s man earlier would have struck her. She was still too careless.
Eric did not answer. His tone was deep and carried a coldness.
“Does it hurt?”
He was referring to her hand that was holding the baseball bat.
Nicole pursed her lips.
When Hector saw Eric on the side, he looked like he had seen a ghost.
The attitude he had while he was yelling at his subordinate earlier disappeared by half. “E-Eric
Ferguson?”
The people Eric brought as well as Nicole’s people soon had an overwhelming advantage.
Hector’s hooligans simply could not compete with these experienced bodyguards.
“Mr. Ferguson, you also want this project, right? As long as you can afford it, this project is yours. You
can’t lose such a good opportunity for a woman…”
Hector panicked. When he saw Eric, he felt goosebumps all over. Eric was too terrifying. No one dared to
resist Eric’s power and obscurity.
He was persuading Eric to look at the big picture.
Eric turned a deaf ear to Hector. All he cared about was Nicole. When he saw that Nicole did not mean to
answer, he reached out and took away the baseball bat that she was clutching.
His voice had a coldness that penetrated one’s bones. However, he had a gentle and spurious smile.
“This doesn’t fit you. I’ll give you something that’s more fun.”
Immediately after, Eric took out an exquisite gun from his waist and handed it to Nicole.
Nicole was dumbstruck.
