Chapter 803
The Divorced Billionaire Heiress
Eric lifted his eyelids, unconcerned.
He was silent and did not say anything, making Nathaniel anxious. Nathaniel and Eric were really not
on the same level. After a pause, Nathaniel could not help but speak. âGreat-grandpa has approached
me and asked me to take your place. Uncle Eric, youâre in danger!â
Mitchell stood there in silence and raised his eyebrows.
Toto was so shocked that he could barely maintain his expression. âSo direct?â Eric calmly lowered his
eyes without the slightest bit of surprise. âThen what?â Nathanielâs face twitched. âThenâ¦â
Eric looked at Nathaniel. His eyes were dark.
âYour fatherâs health isnât great and canât withstand pressure. Youâre the only person that Grandpa can
choose. Youâre just a puppet, so what else do I need to worry about?â Nathaniel felt insulted. âI came
here with such passion and sincerity! How could he treat me like this?!â âUncle Eric, you⦠Youâre too
condescending!â
Eric pursed his lips. A hint of a smile emerged on his cold face. âAre you saying that you really want to
sit in my position? Itâs not impossible. If you follow the Old Master, you might stand a chanceâ¦â
What Eric said was too euphemistic.
Old Master Fergusonâs chances of winning were almost zero, so the chances of Nathaniel following the
Old Master amount to none. On the contrary, doing so would just offend Eric.
Nathaniel really could not figure out how Old Master Ferguson became so confused to get into a power
struggle at his old age. He felt ridiculous just saying it out loud.
Whatâs more, Old Master Ferguson wanted to drag Nathaniel into this mess. Was it because he saw
that Nathaniel was living too well? Not to mention that Nathaniel did not have the ability to sit in Ericâs
position. Even if he did, Ferguson Corporation would have to declare bankruptcy within a month.
Nathaniel did not want to take up such a big responsibility. This would simply bring him to his death!
Nathaniel looked at Eric with a bitter face.
âMy father asked me to come to you for an idea. You also know that our family isnât that ambitious.
Besides eating, drinking, and playing, we canât do anything. My father and I donât agree with the Old
Masterâs words. Uncle Eric, you pretty much watched me grow up. Iâm your most beloved nephew!
You canât unilaterally announce that youâre kicking me out of the Ferguson family!â Nathaniel was doing
well in the entertainment industry because he was backed by the Ferguson family. He knew that
without the Ferguson familyâs support, he would have to start fighting with other young hunks. Eric
raised his eyebrows with a cold face. It seemed that
Nathaniel and his family were more sensible than he imagined. This was within his expectation.
Nathaniel saw that Eric was unmoved, he panicked.
It was only after a while that Eric spoke slowly. âWhatâs in it for me?â That one sentence shocked the
three people present. âBenefits?â Nathaniel could not believe his ears. âIâm the one who came to report
this to you. Iâm here to surrender. Uncle Eric, did you get the order of identity reversed?â
Nathaniel really felt like he heard a thunderbolt on a clear day. Eric sat there in his white shirt and black
pants. His posture was upright, and his clear and handsome face was indifferent with a cold smile. âI
didnât ask you to come. You came to me yourself.â Whoever begs for mercy first, loses. Here, the rules
were always up to Eric.
Nathaniel suddenly felt like his worldview was refreshed.
Mitchell had become accustomed to all of this. No one could talk terms with Eric because Eric simply
was not interested in that bit of temptation. Nathaniel choked on his words and looked at his second
uncle.
Eric really lived up to his name as a cold-blooded and ruthless capitalist. Fortunately, Nathaniel
surrendered early. Otherwise, he would have been killed in seconds without
even a body left behind.
