The Deserted Rich Beauty (Nicole and eric)

Chapter 2099 Beat Around the Bush

Clayton stood still and looked back at Eric.

"Is she really dead? I don't think so..."

Eric's face changed instantly.

"What are you trying to say? Why, did you rescue her again?"

Eric's eyes turned intimidating and cold.

Clayton smiled. "Mr. Ferguson, how many times do I have to say that I have nothing to do with her?

Her existence is a threat to Nicole, so I want her to disappear more than you do."

Clayton shrugged helplessly. His gentle voice was tinged with a bit of ruthlessness.

Eric stared at him for more than ten seconds.

He turned his head to look at the maid who came over with some cleaning supplies and instructed

coldly," Clean this up later. Don’t come here without my order.”

The maid trembled, nodded quickly, put down the tools, and left.

Once the maid was far away, Eric slowly sat back on the sofa.

Eric only had enough patience at the mention of Nicole.

Of course, there were still opportunities.

"How is she a threat to Nicole?”

Clayton lowered his head and explained calmly, “She killed Tina and Zach Gilbert. If I guess correctly,

she wants Nicole to be caught in the middle of public opinion so that we wouldn’t notice her existence.

After all, according to my insider reports, she has always been in Southeast Asia."

Eric's expression changed slightly when he heard this.

His eyes flashed with surprise and gloom.

In the end, Eric raised his eyelids and asked Clayton, " That means she slipped out from under your

nose?"

Clayton raised his eyebrows. His expression became solemn for a moment before he said, "Mr.

Ferguson, she and her subordinates have done plastic surgery on themselves, so they look very

different from their usual selves. This is the main reason why my subordinates neglected her. She

found a substitute to confess her guilt, and the execution was flawless. But I don't plan on raising the

case again. After all, her appearance is related to the two of us, so I fully agree with your method of

dealing with her in private."

Clayton finished speaking with a wicked smile on his face.

What he did not want to dirty his h

Otherwise, Clayton would have to waste his efforts on taking Angie abroad to get rid of her.

Eric's eyes were deep and dark.

"She killed Tina and Zach to frame Nicole?!"

As he spoke, his eyes gradually became sharper.

Eric should have thought of it earlier.

When he suspected Angie, he should have linked it up with recent events.

Angie could not touch Nicole, so she had no choice but to target the people around Nicole, and Tina

was the easiest target.

Eric recalled that day in the hospital. Yasmin showed up and disappeared from time to time. At that

time, they did not care about where the nanny went.

Come to think of it now, there were flaws everywhere.

Eric could not explain the complicated emotions in his heart.

He hated himself for not thinking about this sooner, and he felt that he was too nice to Angie for merely

throwing her into the river.

Suddenly, Eric thought of something.

He raised his eyes abruptly with a bit of shock.

"What do you mean by what you just said? Isn’t she dead?"

Clayton saw Eric’s agitated and tense look and smiled faintly.

"Mr. Ferguson, your subordinates threw her into the river, but you don't know where exactly they

dumped her, right? She bribed one of your drivers, the one who takes your son to and from school.

After your subordinates threw her, your driver fished her up immediately. Fortunately, my subordinates

arrived in time. Now, both your driver and your woman are in my hands."

Eric was shocked and angry. His eyebrows formed a straight line from frowning so much.

"She's in your hands?"

"Of course. Why else would I come?"

Eric stared at him for a few seconds.

He was surprised to see Clayton so calm. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

It turned out that this sanctimonious Clayton was not just an airhead.

"Then what do you want to do?"

Clayton smiled and said in a tone of discussion, "I'm here to ask for your opinion. Of course, I'll let you

deal with your driver, but that woman..."

To be honest, Clayton wanted her dead.

However, what was more troublesome was that the real Yasmin died in the wilderness and had been

found.

If the fake Yasmin appeared again, it would inevitably cause a lot of unnecessary trouble.

After Eric calmed down, he was no longer as agitated and angry as before.

"Since she’s in your hands, I'll listen to your arrangements."

Clayton wanted to push this huge problem back into Eric's hands, but that would depend on whether

Eric wanted to accept it or not.

Clayton looked at Eric for a few seconds with a slight smile on the corner of his lips.

"Well, since you said so, I'll handle it myself. I plan to hand her over to Mr. Jensen. Didn't Mr. Jensen

always want to get rid of those terrorist organizations? Angie is a good start. Since I'm settling down in

Mediania, I ought to offer the authorities some goodies."

Clayton’s mood was inexplicably good when he saw Eric's expression turning livid and gloomy.

Clayton's voice also became more nonchalant.

"When the time comes, we'll see how Mr. Jensen decides to deal with her. If he’s kind-hearted, you

might even be reunited with her after a decade or two! Maybe by then, she will be a changed person,

and you’ll still be alone. You two are truly a match made in heaven!” 2

Clayton clapped his hands, but Eric’s heart trembled fiercely.

If what Clayton said came true, Eric felt that he would live in a nightmare for the rest of his life and

would never be able to get out of it.

Why did that crazy woman come back from the dead?!

Eric’s expression was very complicated. Finally, he settled down his emotions, looked at Clayton, and

said, "Leave her to me. I'll handle it!"

"What do you plan to do with her?"

Clayton was not surprised by his reaction. He just kindly asked for Eric’s opinion.

Eric replied, "Naturally, I want her to disappear."

When he spoke, Eric's eyes became cold and dim.

Clayton smiled. "I have some understanding of the laws here after staying here for so long. My advice

for you is not to do anything illegal. It's best if she can get herself killed."

Eric was indignant and impatient.

"Talk straight, Clayton. I despise people like you the most!"

Clayton stopped beating around the bush and said bluntly, "There's a special channel for people like

her to enter and leave the country. She also came to Mediania through that channel in the first place. If

she has a chance to escape, she’ll definitely go back through that path.”

Eric stared at him with black eyes.

"You want me to kill her on that journey?"

Clayton paused. He was amused and helpless.

"Mr. Ferguson, if we arrange an assassin, it'll only make her alert and flee farther. If she uses that

channel, others can use it too. I know that you’re familiar with many foreign mercenaries, and those

mercenaries know a lot of stowaways. It’s not difficult for these people to find some extremely vicious

people to join her on her journey. That way, will she still be able to return to Southeast Asia in one

piece?" i
