The Deserted Rich Beauty (Nicole and eric)
Chapter 717 She's Voracious

Eric's move was so nonchalant, but everyone present felt a bitter cold all of a sudden.

Hector Leach was so frightened that his legs went limp. He would not even question whether the thing in Eric's hand would be aimed at his head.

Nicole calmly took it over without the slightest surprise and fear.

'What kind of people are they?!' Hector's face turned miserably pale. The fear in his bones made his blood clot as he shivered.

Nicole took the gun and spun it around. Eric then took her hand and held that gun, pointing it in Hector's direction.

The situation was tense.

Eric's face was expressionless, and his tone was morose. "Was it him? Just shoot him."

Eric seemed to be a bit impatient. The redness of his eyes was from his unsuppressed anger and ruthlessness. He simply did not care about the consequences. Moreover, he was not afraid to cause trouble.

This kind of small commotion was common for him.

However, since they scared Nicole, that was a different story.

When Hector heard Eric's words, he was so scared that his bones went soft. He fell limp to the ground and knelt there as he raised his hands in surrender.

"I'm sorry! I was wrong! Mr. Ferguson, please spare me. Don't kill me!"

Hector just intended to use a little roguish tactics against Nicole. Who would have thought that he would provoke Eric and get himself killed?

At this moment, Hector believed that if Nicole really shot him, he would die without a fuss and Eric would just throw him into the river and make him disappear forever. That was the scariest thing.

A ruthless person finally met someone who did not care about human life.

Eric ignored Hector's pleas and remained unmoved.

Hector saw this and turned to look at Nicole, kowtowing to admit his mistake.

"Ms. Stanton! President Nicole! Please forgive me... I was wrong! You can take the ledgers away, just spare my worthless life..."

His body trembled violently. Every pore of his being was terrified. That feeling of having a gun pointed at his head was too bloody horrible.

It was like a nightmare.

Nicole lowered her eyes. She pulled away from Eric's hand and surveyed the gun in her hand as she smiled.

"Of course, I'll take the books. Also... The other set of ledgers."

Being voracious was the proper attitude of a victor.

As soon as Nicole said this, Hector froze for a moment and immediately understood.

From the very beginning, taking these ledgers was only the first step of her plan. Everyone knew that the real ledgers would not be placed in such an open place. They had a set of ledgers out in the open, and another set in private.

Hector did not expect Nicole to be so direct. She was not satisfied with this set of ledgers and even wanted to take away another set!

However, if that private ledger was exposed, then Hector and Lincoln Eelman would spend time in prison.

Hector hesitated. 'To give or not to give?'

At this point, Nicole cocked the gun. The icy smile on her face was very obvious.

She was threatening him. Did he want his life or the books?

At that moment, Hector felt like he was on the edge of life and death. He decisively gritted his teeth and said, "Fine."

Everyone did not expect that the other set of ledgers was not in the office but was kept in Hector's house. Hector really kept it well hidden.

In just twenty minutes, the people and cars on the scene disappeared.

Hector led them to get the real books. Fearing the gun in Nicole's hand, Hector really did not dare to play any tricks at this juncture.

Nicole got her people to take the ledgers away. She had a successful trip.

After they left, Hector felt like he came back from the dead and sat on the ground, wiping his sweat.

Nicole sat in the car and repeatedly looked at the gun in her hand.

She was familiar with guns and dabbled in shooting for some time. The gun in her hand was obviously a toy to fool children.

Logan was forcibly invited by Mitchell to Eric's car, while Eric sat next to Nicole.
