Clayton’s features carried a hint of dark coldness, and his eyes were full of rage.He seemed like a completely different person.Clayton stepped forward and looked at Floyd. His eyes were cold as he asked, “Who said that?”“I’m asking you if it’s true or not!” Floyd repeated himself.Clayton clenched his teeth. The veins on his face were bulging, and his fists were clenched tightly.“Yes, but please tell me, who said that?”Clayton had a vague answer in his heart. The blood in his body surged, and it felt like the anger was about to gush out.A chill suddenly arose in Nicole’s heart.Clayton’s anger and hatred were obvious. It was vaguely related to his mysterious background, but his background was an untouchable existence.Those existences would make a person crazy.Floyd sneered. “I won’t hide it from you. It was your uncle, Isaac Sloan. He left not long ago. He specially came here just to tell me this!”When Clayton heard the name “Isaac Sloan”, his eyebrows shook fierce
Aida and Grant clearly sensed that something was wrong.Every AI butler would scan through the passing guests every five seconds to check if any strangers entered.In such an environment, it was not easy for an outsider to get in, especially if the person could come in and out without a trace.Apart from Floyd who met him, no one else had seen Isaac’s face.Aida was still wearing her gown, and her delicate eyebrows carried a hint of anxiety.“Should we call the police?”Grant hesitated and looked at Nicole.“If there’s no evidence that directly points to Isaac taking Michael, it’ll be unreasonable to call the police since he came here to attend the banquet...”Even if a report was made, it would remain unsettled.Nicole’s mind was muddled. She jolted up when she heard the words “call the police”.“Don’t call the police yet, Big Brother. I’ll go to Clayton. Finding Michael is the most important thing now. We’ll put aside everything else for now. Help me ask Dad about it.”Gra
Grant and Aida simply freshened up and changed into everyday clothes before heading back.Floyd was still very angry when Grant and Aida returned. When Floyd saw that Nicole was not around, he grew even more furious.The butler greeted them cautiously.“Young Master Kai sent Ms. Nixon back and hasn’t come back yet. The Chairman is scolding everyone he sees!”Grant nodded and sighed before pulling Aida inside.Floyd said, “Why is it just you two?”Grant paused. “If you don’t welcome us, we can leave.”Saying that, Grant pulled Aida’s hand and went out.Floyd snorted. His gaze softened slightly as he looked at Aida.“That’s not what I meant. Too many things happened tonight. It’s been hard on you.”Aida quickly smiled. Her eyes were gentle. “Don’t say that, Dad. It’s just a dinner party. It doesn’t matter.”Floyd nodded. “When you two get married, I’ll buy you an island, so feel free to pick whichever you please...”Aida’s smile stiffened slightly. Even if she knew how wealth
The temperature in mid-March was still chilly, especially at night, where the cold penetrated down to one’s bones.Nicole did not have time to change her clothes. Her dress fabric was too thin, so she shivered from the cold.Fortunately, she had some spare clothes in the car, so she put on a woolen coat that wrapped the graceful outline of her body and also blocked the bone-chilling cold.It looked extraordinarily well-matched.Nicole stepped on her high heels and went into the hotel. Her pace was crisp and unwavering. She went straight to the elevator and found the floor Isaac was staying in.Unexpectedly, as soon as she got out of the elevator, she saw a floor full of his bodyguards.There seemed to be one bodyguard every few feet. ‘What’s this formation? It’s as if there’s some sort of important government official around.’The bodyguard close to her stopped her. “Halt. No one can enter this floor.”Nicole pursed her lips, her eyes cold.“Please tell Mr. Sloan that I’m Nico
Nicole raised her eyebrows and said nothing.That went without saying.Did Isaac want to gain something from giving nothing? He was not worth it.Isaac understood Nicole’s attitude and nodded.A long time passed.Isaac crossed his arms above his knees, moving wantonly.“I know that Clayton has been pursuing you. Did you agree to date him?”Isaac suddenly asked.Nicole frowned. “Why do you ask?”“Curiosity. You’re beautiful and generous, and I’ve already heard about you before I came to Mediania. Clayton is very good at putting on airs, so I’m very curious if you took the bait.”Isaac looked very interested.Nicole lowered her eyes and smiled.“Mr. Sloan, I have many boyfriends. Nine out of ten of them are actors.”There were tons of men who had been in rumors with Nicole.Nicole remembered Clayton saying that they could not let Isaac know about their relationship.She looked at Isaac vaguely and smiled meaningfully.Isaac immediately put on an expression as if he unders
Isaac’s face also changed slightly as he narrowed his eyes.“Why do you care so much about his son, Ms. Stanton?”Nicole looked down on him, her gaze arrogant.“Because I want to. Is there a problem with that?”Isaac’s eyes narrowed as he looked at her cold expression. Then, he suddenly smiled and relaxed.How intriguing.Nicole had the temper of a spoiled young lady. If she was this bold, it seemed to have little to do with Clayton.People always seemed to like that damned brat Michael. Even Nicole was fooled by him.Isaac chuckled. Nicole was actually tricked by a child?It was clear that she was not that shrewd and capable!Isaac raised his hands and smiled. The exposed area of his bathrobe grew larger as if he was deliberately seducing her.“I misspoke. If you need help, I can help you find him.”Nicole pursed her lips, not wanting to look at this filthy man a moment longer.“No need. Since our conversation is going nowhere, I’ll take my leave now...”“Wait, Ms. Stant
Isaac’s blood rushed to his head. He refused to accept being ridiculed and taunted by a woman.He gnashed his teeth and smiled coldly.“Is that so? Then I’ll let you know...”Isaac suddenly reached out to touch Nicole’s face, but she smacked his hand away before he could.Her eyes became cold as she suddenly raised her hand to slap him.However, Isaac still had some skills. He saw through her actions long ago.He smoothly avoided her hand and went to grab her left shoulder.Nicole leaned back slightly, so Isaac did not manage to grab her.Isaac’s eyes darkened. He pounced on her and tried to pin her to the wall so he could restrain her hands and feet.However, Nicole’s actions were much faster than he imagined. She dodged to the side the moment he came over.The next second, Isaac stumbled a few steps. Before he could regain his balance, Nicole kicked him in the back of his calf viciously.His body involuntarily flung itself onto the vase next to him.The vase fell to the g
Nicole shuddered slightly. It did not sound like Clayton’s voice.In that case, it was Isaac’s scream.Nicole suddenly relaxed.In the presidential suite.Isaac was flat on the ground as Clayton crouched above him with one hand around Isaac’s collar to hold him in position. Clayton’s other hand fiercely swung down on Isaac’s face.In a few moments, Isaac’s face was covered in blood and was bruised and swollen.Isaac could not even say a complete sentence. The blood in his mouth was shocking.When it looked like Isaac was at his last breath, Clayton finally stopped with a cold gaze.Clayton squatted to the side, looking at Isaac from high above.His eyes were dark.“Where did you take my son?”Clayton’s voice was hoarse like a demon coming from hell.The man on the ground was silent as if he was already dead.However, Clayton knew that Isaac was not dead. He had been deliberate when hitting Isaac to make sure that it did not hurt his vitals.A strange laugh emerged from Is
