Chapter 1027 Worthy of You
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
Chapter 1028 I Really Like You
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
Chapter 1029 He Won’t Change His Last Name
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
Chapter 1030 He’ll Know
Nicole pouted but nodded in agreement.“You’re right.”Clayton bowed his head to turn on the stove. “I saw that your fridge was too empty when I came by several times before, so I bought some stuff to fill it up. Since you didn’t know about it, that means you really didn’t touch it before, huh?”Nicole touched her nose guiltily.“I was too busy to come back and cook.”She also preferred to eat outside at this time.However, she was surprised. ‘The ingredients here were all bought by Clayton? Why did I never notice it before?’Less than ten minutes later.Clayton came out with two bowls of marinara pasta.The color was tempting, and the aroma was enticing.Nicole instantly became hungry.She never thought that Clayton, who looked like he led a pampered life, would be so good at cooking.Clayton handed the bowl over. “Dig in and have a good rest afterward.”Nicole nodded. “Aren’t you going to rest too?”Clayton had not slept all night either.He looked at her with a twinkl
Chapter 1031 No Conditions
Nicole waited for Eric to state his conditions in exchange.However, he did not.Eric gave her the address and hung up the phone.Nicole was puzzled.Was this still the Eric Ferguson she knew?Nicole did not have time to think about it. She picked up her coat and left.Ferguson Corporation.After Eric hung up the phone, he picked up the cigarette next to him and lit it.The ashtray in front of him was already densely packed with cigarette butts.The person sitting opposite him was very puzzled.“Ferg, why did you just tell her the address? You didn’t get any benefit at all!”Keith really understood Eric less and less.Sitting not far away, Toto raised his eyebrows as he fed the fish silently.This was Toto’s idea.Eric laughed softly and breathed out a mouthful of smoke. The smoke curled around, and he felt his chest grow even stuffier.“Benefit? What kind of benefit should I ask from her?”“Tell her to leave Clayton, of course. Tell her she can never see him again and
Chapter 1032 Little Softie
Eric’s tone was perfunctory, and his face was as sharp as a knife.“You’re such a disgrace that the whole world knows about it!”Keith was speechless.Was it that hard to ask for some dignity?“By the way, do you know about the case where Ava York was hung by the Stanton family a few days ago? She used to be one of your people, but you didn’t help her out at all?”Eric calmly breathed out smoke and extinguished the cigarette in the ashtray in front of him.His fingers were well defined, slender, and powerful.“She’s not one of my people. She’s one of Asher Sullivan’s people. Asher puts his own safety above overs, and I won’t take the initiative to jump into the pit.”Eric’s voice was a bit unruly.It was as if he had already forgotten about Ava York.......Nicole was halfway there before she remembered to call Clayton.However, Clayton’s phone line was busy and could not be reached.With no other choice, Nicole went there with her own bodyguards.The house under Eric’s n
Chapter 1033 I’ll Kiss You
Clayton looked at Lil Michael speechlessly. He really wanted to reach out and drag him out of Nicole’s arms.‘Did he not see who came in first to save him?! Was there something wrong with this kid’s eyes? He had clearly cried “Daddy! Daddy!” the loudest earlier!’ Clayton thought.It was really incomprehensible.Before Clayton could think anything, the three large men whose only bargaining chip ran away from them immediately fell to their knees with a thud.“It has nothing to do with us! It was Mr. Isaac Sloan who told us to do this!”Nicole was speechless.Sure enough, people who were not cultivated personally easily betrayed their masters.Clayton was not surprised at all and laughed coldly.“I didn’t ask such a childish question.”There was no need to surrender so hurriedly.The men exchanged glances.Clayton looked around.“Did Eric Ferguson buy this house?”The men replied carefully, “Yes.”His eyes deepened slightly and sank coldly.“Since you haven’t caused any har
Chapter 1034 Use What in Exchange?
Nicole grinned and touched his little face.“Your daddy was worried about you. He didn’t sleep all night because he was looking for you!”Lil Michael leaned over dubiously and pulled Clayton’s arm, shaking it.“Daddy is the best to me!”Clayton’s heart softened. He tousled Lil Michael’s hair and smiled.“Do you remember how you were kidnapped yesterday? I told you so many times not to trust others, but you still got abducted?”Lil Michael scratched his head and blinked his little eyes.“No, that big meanie Isaac waved at me. I knew him, so I walked over, but then I fainted. Then I woke up at that little house...”Lil Michael trailed off weakly. His voice became softer when he saw Clayton’s increasingly solemn face.The boy slowly moved back to Nicole and gently held her fingers.Lil Michael blinked at her.Nicole cleared her throat and quickly changed the topic.“It seems like Isaac came prepared. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have taken Lil Michael so smoothly. But what purpose d
