The Two of Them Are Really Together

Clayton’s smile faintly stillened. His eyes darkened for a brief moment, but it was only for a short second before he returned to his usual self. “Did Mr. Ferguson ask you to come and persuade me?" Keith was stunned and immediately denied it. “Of course not, we’re just reminding you that there are women everywhere, so you don’t need to look for a divorced woman with a domineering and strong personality, right?” After Keith finished speaking, he felt a cool breeze on his back. Before Colton could nudge Keith, Nicole’s icy voice gradually approached from behind "Keith Ludwig, didn’t anyone teach you t o be more discreet when talking bad about others?" Keith’s body shook violently. His eyes flashed with a hint of panic. He had goosebumps all over. He stiffly turned his head with a frightened expression. "Nic.. Nicole..." Keith’s mind went blank: ’What did I just say? Divorced? The personality is domineering and strong? No I didn’t say that, right?’ Nicole was expressionless and indifferent as she walked over. She hooked the corner of her lips and said, " The two of you know my affairs so well so why tell it to only one person. You might as well go to the media. Wouldn’t that have a much better effect." Keith gulped. ’No I won’t dare even if someone gave me guts to.’ Colton knew that they were in the wrong and stood at the side with his mouth shut, but his expression was not as bad as Keith. That was because Nicole did not have anything on him as she had on Keith. The fact that Colton was almost married to Melanie was a stain on his life. But Keith was different. Nicole had his nudes. If Nicole released his nudes in a fit of anger he won’t be able to show his face in public anymore. Keith stood up trembling, with a pleasing and humble smile on his face, "No I was just kidding. How would I go about spreading rumours? I was just saying hello to Mr. Sloan.." Nicole coldly swept a glance at him and sat on the opposite seat. “Keith, if I’m on the hot topics, I’ll make sure that you’ll rank first.” Keith was shaken. His face changed slightly and instantly understood Nicole’s warning tone. ‘It’s so hard to be Eric’s bro! Keith thought. “I-I was wrong!” Keith was ashamed to look at Clayton’s expression. He felt like he had lost his reputation. Nicole’s voice was calm and cold. “Did Eric Ferguson put you up to this?” Keith hesitated for a few seconds. “Of course…” ‘Not!’ However, he could not bring himself to say the last word. He looked at He stiffly turned his head with a frightened expression. “Of course… He did…” Keith bit his tongue. ‘I’m sorry, bro!” Nicole was expressionless. Her gaze swept past Keith and she looked toward the entrance. She hooked her lips in a cold and mocking smile "Mr. Ferguson, you hear that? No one wronged you. Your best friend admitted it himself.” Keith’s body shook as he slowly turned back with a stiff face, He saw Eric standing there with a dark and sulleri face, shrouded in a gloomy coldness. Keith just felt like he was struck by lightning twice in a row. He was completely terrified and shocked to the core. All he wanted was to burrow into the ground. ’Why is there such a coincidence?! How did Eric show up out of the blue?’ Nicole sneered and turned to Clayton with a faint smile on her face. “I’m not in the mood to eat anymore. Let’s head back?” Clayton raised his eyebrows. “Sure.” The two of them went out one after the other and walked past Eric, whose face was extremely glum. His thin lips were pressed into a straight line as his gaze was fixed on Nicole. Unfortunately, Nicole did not show even a trace of emotion. Eric opened his mouth wanting to explain, but he only looked miserable and powerless. His fists on both sides were clenched tightly and his body was tense. After Nicole left, Keith braced himself and walked over. “Um… Ferg, I think the two of them might really be together…” Eric lifted his eyes and cast a cold and sharp sidelong glance at Keith.
