Chapter 396: Granting Every Wish
The air was stagnant for a moment.
Eric knew that he was pushing his luck, but if he did not try, how would he know if it was possible? Nicole paused for a moment.
She looked at him with her hand propping up her chin.
The corners of her lips curled up in a pretty arc However, her voice was rational and indifferent as she spoke witha vague smile.
"Did you break your arm too?"
Her smile did not reach her eyes, yet it was impossible to hate her.
Eric saw that Nicole was not angry, so his smile deepened.He immediately smiled self-deprecatingly.His voice was low and
regretful.
"Are you abandoning me so soon? Can't you even do this for me?"
Nicole's eyebrows twitched slightly.
‘What the hell was wrong with him? If he wasn't injured, I'd just drop him like a hot potato! Why should I stay here and watch him
put on a show? His acting is horrendous!"
She turned away and exhaled heavily.
‘Don't get angry ...Just bear with it!’
In the next second, Luca stepped forward and picked u p the bowl of soup in front of Eric.
"Mr.Ferguson, let me..."
Luca held up the spoon in front of Eric's mouth.
His face looked so ferocious, but his actions were a stark contrast.He was feeding Eric like a baby.
Luca even opened his mouth wide and let out an "ahh" as if he was teaching a toddler to eat.
For a moment, the dining room was silent.
Nicole could not help but burst out into laughter.
Eric's face also stiffened and became unpleasant.
However, Luca was Nicole's bodyguard, so he did not care about what Eric thought of him.
In less than two seconds, Eric's mouth twitched.
He reached out to take the bowl from the bodyguard's hand.
His voice was deep and cold.
"My arm isn't broken.I'll eat by myself."
Luca very sensibly retreated behind Nicole and stood there like a fierce statue.
Eric was much more well-behaved after that episode and finished his meal very calmly with his head bowed.
Nicole looked at some urgent emails Logan sent to her and replied to them on her phone.She did not notice that Eric's gaze had
been fixed on her for a long time.
After replying, she put her phone on the table and looked up at him.
"You're done?"
Eric nodded and smiled with gentle eyes.
Nicole stood up and was about to clear the dishes when Eric held her wrist and looked at her helplessly.
"I didn't ask you to come here as a servant." Lucy quickly came out of the kitchen.
"I'll clean up" Nicole raised her brows.
She did not want to do it anyway.
Eric patted his wheelchair and looked at her.
"Let's go to the study."
Nicole could help with little things like these, so she came behind him and pushed his wheelchair.He could clearly roll it himself,
but he wanted her to do it instead.
This made Eric very pleased.
Nicole secretly rolled her eyes and pushed him to the elevator.
He probably had to do some work in the study.
Nicole thought about going out to have some fun with Yvette and Julie at night.
In the study on the second floor, Eric looked at Nicole.
"There are too many confidential documents regarding the company here, so get your bodyguard to wait at the door"
Nicole said, "Fine."
Without any instructions, Luca already got into position.
Nicole pushed Eric inside.
The study had changed significantly since she came here last.
The study was originally two rooms that were adjoined.
Since Nicole used to be the only one who used it before, it was empty with nothing inside.
There were built-in bookshelves on the walls that were now filled with books.
Many files were separated categorically on the arched bookshelves on both sides of the room.
A large rectangular desk was placed in the center of the room.
On it were two laptops and many scattered documents.
The light outside the window shone through the glass.
There was a peaceful feeling in this hazy light.
Nicole paused for a moment before continuing to push him forward.
Eric stopped her and pointed to the tatami on the other side of the room.
"Over there..."
