Back in Eric's room, he was so angry that he did not even feel like sleeping.
He originally wanted to take this opportunity to bond with Nicole, but with Luca around, Eric could not do anything!
It was incredibly depressing and stifling.
The night passed. Nicole did not sleep very well, but it was fortunately dawn when she opened her eyes again.
Someone knocked on the door.
Nicole let out a grunt to acknowledge it, so Luca stopped knocking.
A while later, she got dressed in a simple white silk blouse and black A-line skirt. She walked downstairs gracefully. The slightly lazy look in her bright features made her cold temperament seem a little softer.
Eric sat at the dining table early in the morning and brightened up when he saw her.
"Good morning, Nicole."
Nicole nodded in greeting as she walked over and asked casually, "Did you sleep well last night?”
Eric's gaze seemed to be somewhat complicated and aggrieved as he glanced at Luca.
"Not really."
Luca's lips twitched. His ferocious face became even more vicious.
Nicole glanced at him. "Since your leg hasn't recovered, it's normal that you don't sleep well, so don't worry about it."
Eric choked.
Lucy came out of the kitchen and set out a bowl of oatmeal and some other breakfast foods.
"Ms. Nicole, they're all your favorites. Are you satisfied with them?"
She looked at Nicole nervously.
Nicole had just lifted the spoon and immediately put i t back down. She ignored Lucy’s words and suddenly remembered something.
"Oh right, I forgot to remind you to take your meds yesterday..."
Eric's lips twitched. His elegant brows were raised as h e looked at her.
"How are you going to make up for your fault?"
Nicole unhurriedly went to the medicine cabinet, grabbed a handful of medicine, and handed it to Eric.
"There. It’ll make up for yesterday’s portion."
"Madam, Nicole really has no respect for anyone. Ever since she came here, she hasn’t had a bite of anything. Is she afraid I'll poison her?"
Nicole had already walked up to the second-floor stairway.
Hearing this, she suddenly stopped in her tracks.
Nicole turned back and sat down on the steps, sipping the glass of water slowly.
She almost forgot that every afternoon, Lucy would make her report to Quinn.
The contents were very exciting.
"Of course, she doesn't do anything. Serve Mr.
Ferguson? No way! It's good enough that Mr. Ferguson isn't serving her...”
Nicole smirked and heard the movement of a wheelchair behind her. She turned around and made a shushing gesture.
Eric was just surprised at Nicole's sudden return. He saw how she was sitting there drinking water as she eavesdropped with great interest on the conversation downstairs.
Without any instructions, Luca pushed Eric's wheelchair forward so that he could listen clearly.
