However, Sean did not care about Mrs. Moore. He only had eyes for Yvette and pulled her out despite her struggle.

Nicole frowned. She was afraid that Sean would take Yvette away and was just about to chase after them when she suddenly heard Eric's cold voice.

"Mitchell, catch up with Mr. Moore and tell him that the signing of the contract will be postponed indefinitely."

Mitchell was watching all this from the corner and immediately stood up when he was called by name. "Understood, President."

Was it because he did not want Nicole to go after them?

The moment Nicole hesitated, Eric called her name.

"Nicole..."

She turned around. Eric stood up, his eyes still as sharp and oppressive as ever.

His voice was low and lazy.

"Thank you for telling us this. Otherwise, we would've lost a lot of money after signing with Mr. Moore."

Nicole pursed her lips calmly. "If you want to thank someone, then thank Yvette. It was her information."

To the side, Mrs. Moore looked pale when she heard Eric's words. It seemed their cooperation was no longer plausible. "Mr. Ferguson, how could you not believe us because of a few words from that crazy woman?"

Eric paused and glanced at Mrs. Moore coldly. His eyes were sharp and biting, making Mrs. Moore not dare to look directly at him.

"It's just in case. We have to verify the authenticity. After all, your company has no credibility with me."

Then, Eric left his seat and walked directly to Nicole.

"As a token of my appreciation, why don't I treat you to dinner?"

Nicole frowned and was just about to refuse when he added, "With Ms. Quimbey as well."

Why was this man acting somewhat odd?

Eric seemed a little too calm.

However, his eyes were completely dark, so it was impossible to see what was going on in his mind.

Their conversation last night had not been pleasant. At that time, Eric's emotions were like shocking waves.

She did not believe that he could quietly accept it and then invite them to dinner the next day.

It was strange no matter how she thought about it.

She paused and smiled with calm eyes. "No, we have

other things to do. We won't bother you."

Then, Nicole turned around and left in her high heels.

Eric's eyes darkened slightly. His breath sank slightly before he followed her out.

The other people in the room finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the cooperation did not work, they all could not breathe when subjected to the low pressure around Eric.

Nicole went out and saw Sean and Yvette talking about something not far away. According to Yvette's hysterical look, she was probably using the most unpleasant words in the dictionary to cuss Sean out. Since it did not seem like Yvette was at a disadvantage, Nicole did not rush over.

Mitchell was also waiting a short distance away.

Before she could stand still, a familiar biting and low breath appeared next to her.

Eric's voice was raspy and indifferent.

"Sean isn't a simple person. Tell your friend to be careful."

Nicole gave him a side-glance. Eric looked at her and moved his eyebrows slightly, his lips curling up.

"Why? You don't believe me? Now that you're with someone else, have I become a wicked person without redemption? What else did Clayton say about me?"

Nicole frowned. Her face was clear and cold, completely expressionless.

"You don't come up in our conversations."

Nicole's words caused Eric's face to stiffen fiercely.

The emotions that were hidden and suppressed in the depths of his dark eyes instantly churned.

What was more hurtful than provocation? Disregard.

Eric felt it completely.

There seemed to be countless hands tearing his heart in his chest, about to rip it into pieces. However, he could only endure it...
