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
Before Isaac could finish, Clayton’s hand swung over coldly, punching the right side of Isaac’s face.Isaac’s words were really filthy.Clayton’s eyes were sunken cold as he stood up. He brushed his hands with great disdain.Isaac was hit to the side. This time, he really had no more strength to speak.Every pore of his body hurt as he bled.“It’s not your place to give directions to my woman. Isaac, I know exactly what kind of trash you are. If you lay a finger on my son, I’ll make you pay with your life!”Clayton spoke fiercely and turned around to open the door.He saw Nicole as soon as he raised his eyes.Clayton pursed his lips and turned to the bodyguards standing to the side.“Take him away.”Isaac would not have a good time until they found Lil Michael.The bodyguard nodded and immediately went inside with the others before coming back out, carrying Isaac out like a dead pig.Isaac’s bodyguards were completely dominated and did not have the chance to resist. They co
They left the hotel.Clayton opened the car door and stuffed Nicole inside before getting in as well.Nicole was so shocked that she moved inside in a hurry.She was a little astonished by Clayton’s change in demeanor.“Drive.”Clayton ordered the driver.The car slowly started, but Clayton did not let go of Nicole’s hand.A long time passed.Everyone’s emotions calmed down slightly.Nicole wanted to pull her hand back, but Clayton did not loosen his grip.He glanced at her from the side with a complicated expression. However, his warm eyes were filled with grievance and anxiousness.“Nicole, I’ll tell you everything you want to know, okay?”Nicole paused and pursed her lips. “I don’t want to know now.”She vaguely understood his past in her heart. Maybe Isaac had exaggerated too much, but those seeds had taken root in her heart. Clayton could no longer get away with these things.Nicole knew nothing about Clayton’s past, and that blankness made her feel insecure.Clayto
Nicole unknowingly fell asleep.Clayton smiled, closed the door, and went around to the driver’s seat.“I’ll send you back to rest. There’s no progress with Lil Michael for now, but we’ll find out soon.”Nicole answered under her breath and did not say another word. She had to go back to wash up and change her clothes.They arrived at the apartment before long.She got into the elevator, entered the door, and went straight to the bathroom to wash up in a daze.Nicole did not notice that Clayton had been following behind her.When she was inside the bath, she suddenly remembered that Eric had been present.If Eric had something to do with this matter...Nicole froze and planned to hurry up and ask.Suddenly, she heard the sound of someone walking inside the living room.Her face changed.Clayton’s voice came from outside.“Nicole, can you hear me?”Nicole was stunned. ‘Clayton? He hasn’t left yet?’“Yeah.” She responded.“Although there are some things I want to forget,
Clayton laughed, but it sounded a little miserable.When he heard the sound of the door opening, he froze and looked up to see that Nicole had walked out in her bathrobe. Her hair was still wet.Nicole looked at him quietly. Her heart was full of distress.She hated herself a little. ‘Why did I say that I wanted to know these things? How could I make him recall the pain of the past all over again?’Nicole walked up to him step by step.Looking up at Clayton, Nicole reached out and touched his face. Her tone was tinged with guilt.“I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have forced you to say this.”She knew that the truth would be shocking, but she did not expect it to be built on the first half of Clayton’s unfortunate life.Clayton’s eyes were slightly red and bloodshot.He raised his hands and took Nicole into his arms.His embrace was tight, and Nicole felt her heart break as she listened to his heartbeat.Her tears could not help but flow as she sobbed faintly.“Clayton, how did you g
Nicole finished speaking.Clayton’s hand movements stiffened slightly.From above, he saw her dark hair and her white and tender neck. Just pressing it lightly was enough to leave marks on it. It made him feel the urge to leave a mark, yet he could not bear to do so.When she spoke, her voice was soft like a spring breeze or a fountain of water flowing into his heart.No one had ever told him “you’re not in the wrong” before.The maid clearly saw that his mother jumped down by herself back then, but she spread the word that he pushed his mother instead.Saying that could satisfy some people’s curious minds.His father clearly fell down the stairs on his own accidentally, but he believed in Isaac’s words and thought that it must be Clayton who pushed him from behind.Thus, Clayton became a heinous person.It was as if Clayton’s existence was a mistake. It was as if he did not deserve forgiveness.However, Clayton never did anything wrong.Nicole’s words suddenly made him feel
Clayton looked at Nicole and smiled. “Do you think anyone would believe me?”Compared to the beloved Isaac, everyone was more willing to believe that it was Clayton who did it.Nicole choked. Isaac was really detestable.“From that point on, I was kicked out of the company and my father began to be wary of me. He held back my activities everywhere and handed over the company and everything at home to his younger brother, Isaac. Just then, Michael’s father got into an accident, and he entrusted Michael and his wife to me. At that time, I overheard that Isaac was afraid of having an additional person to share the inheritance, so he wanted to kill Michael’s mother and Michael. I immediately took them under my wing and got married as fast as I could.”Clayton looked at Nicole when he said this.After all, his last marriage brought about a lot of opinions regarding him and put him in the criticisms of many people.He was already used to it.However, he did not want Nicole to get used
