Chapter 1222 Fawning Nicole
Clayton stated those words that should have been a very tragic experience like they were mere facts.However, his casual attitude caught the others by surprise.Nicole looked at Clayton and felt heartbroken.Nicole threw Isaac to the door of the Sloan family residence like she was tossing out a bag of garbage because she wanted to tell the Sloan family that Isaac was useless.She just wanted to vent her anger.More than that, she wanted to vent for Clayton.Why should such a good person like him be abandoned and scorned by the Sloan family?Grant’s eyes sank slightly. His thin lips were pursed. He seemed to be thinking of something.Floyd reacted very quickly and looked at Clayton with sympathy, feeling genuine heartbreak for him.“It’s been hard on you, Clayton. They’ll definitely find out about us, but they can’t reach us here. Grant still has influence in the business world, so there’s no need to worry. In private, I’ll also assign a few more bodyguards for Nicole’s safety.
Chapter 1223 First Place From Behind
When mentioning the past, Floyd had a rare and warm smile on his face.Nicole stood there in embarrassment.“You must’ve remembered wrongly, Dad. I’ve never gotten bad grades before!”Grant snorted in disdain.“Before I tutored you, you were definitely the first place in class, counting backward, of course.”Grant exposed her unceremoniously.Nicole was speechless. ‘Did he have to do that? Are we really family? Why do we have to hurt each other? No, why did they have to hurt me?!’Clayton could not help but laugh. His eyes when he looked at Nicole became gentler and curious.It was such a nice story. He wanted to know more.Outsiders saw Nicole as excellent and perfect, but she had bad grades before?After dessert, there was still a while before lunch.Floyd could not rest assured and called Grant to the study to talk.Although Nicole could hold her own in the business world, there were some shady areas that they had never let her touch.Thus, Grant had to stand out instea
Chapter 1224 Don’t Come Back Until You Coax Her
Grant’s face flushed in embarrassment.“That was for work...”Nicole snorted. “Even Logan didn't go for something trivial like liaising with the companies below, but you ran over eagerly. What other reason could it be besides to find Aida?”Aida slowly stood up. Her eyes were already a little red.Grant hurriedly walked over and blocked the view of the others, holding her gently in his arms and patting her.“I was just passing by. Lil N’s just babbling nonsense...”Aida’s voice choked.“But you said that you’ve never been there before, and you’ve never thought about going there to see me. You said that every time you went there, you’d just go around instead...”Grant looked at her with a complex expression and felt his heart ache. He wiped her tears away, somewhat at a loss.“Why are you crying? It’s not important whether I went or not. At that time, the decision was yours…”Aida froze and lowered her head, crying even harder.Without caring about anything else, Aida pushed
Chapter 1225 Who Took the Initiative?
Aida choked as she spoke. There was a sadness in her voice that could not be hidden.“When I began to make a profit, I learned that the elites were hosting a party that your brother would be attending. I sought out a lot of connections to be able to get in there to meet him. That time, I didn’t dare to go up to him and identify myself. I tried to get his contact information from others indirectly, and it took me several days to just send him a text message. Strangely, he knew that it was me.”Nicole listened intently from the side.It was clear that Grant and Aida were not people to be caught up in love. However, what they experienced felt like when someone died and came back to life.There was a deep-rooted silence.“Then, you guys got back together again?”Nicole asked.Aida took a deep breath and sighed.“Yeah, I brought it up first. I told him that I couldn’t forget him. If he’s still single, we can try to get back together. Of course, if he’s not willing, just forget that
Chapter 1226 The Last is the Best
Aida frowned in confusion. “Really? He likes children?”With Grant’s appearance, he could make children cry just by standing there and not talking.Did he like children?Nicole nodded.“Don’t just look at how cold he is. He’s actually very patient with kids. Otherwise, how would my second brother become a top student? My third brother was also always in the top ranks.”Aida looked thoughtfully into the distance.Nicole paused before continuing.“I think that you two love each other enough. There’s just some misunderstanding in the middle, but you just have to resolve them. It’s no big deal! You still have to look ahead. What matters is that you’re together now.”In the end, it was Grant who did not give Aida a sense of security.Maybe Grant was also carefully testing Aida’s likes and dislikes.Aida said she did not want to get married, so they got engaged instead.She said she did not want to have children, so Grant never brought it up.Grant never imposed his thoughts on h
Chapter 1227 Comeback
Nicole walked over and subconsciously took his arm, but Clayton suddenly dodged at the last second, so she only grabbed air.She was speechless.Nicole looked at Clayton in shock.This was the first time Clayton refused her initiative.Clayton coughed twice and looked at the person in front of him awkwardly, smiling.“Please go ahead, Chairman Stanton...”Clayton extended his hand in gesture.Nicole subconsciously looked up to see Floyd’s dark eyes glaring at her.Floyd thought, ‘This no-good daughter! Does she not want her dozens of suitors and male fans anymore?’Nicole sheepishly withdrew her hand and turned to take Floyd’s arm.She smiled. “Daddy, please take a seat...”Floyd snorted coldly and turned around to leave. He did not want to pay attention to her.The butler watched from the side and laughed. The house was rarely this lively. If only Kai was here as well…The meal was considered lively, and they video-called Kai halfway. It was nighttime where he was. Kai lo
Chapter 1228 Childish
The Stanton family could not seal the mouths of everyone who saw Nicole, let alone deliberately erase all traces of her.That was because the preparations they made had always been for a confrontation.It was strange.Nicole frowned, and a doubt flashed in her mind, but she felt that it was impossible. ‘Why would Eric meddle in other people’s business?’Grant sat there with a cold and solemn face. No one knew what he was thinking.......After lunch, Nicole ignored Floyd’s request for her to stay and insisted on leaving with Clayton.She was on her own turf. What was there to be afraid of?On the road.Clayton drove and smiled when he saw that Nicole was lost in thought. His eyes were very warm.“What are you thinking?”“Nothing. Just curious about who would meddle.”Clayton paused before speaking in a light tone.“Is there a need to think about it? It must be Mr. Ferguson...”Nicole looked at Clayton in shock.Clayton’s side profile was so handsome and affectionate. His
Chapter 1229 I Know It’s You
Nicole pursed her lips. When the words came to her mouth, she suddenly felt that what Eric wanted might not be these words of gratitude.However, Nicole could not give him what he wanted.She did not have anything to offer but this.“Thank you, Mr. Ferguson.”Eric choked, and he felt like his blood had stopped flowing.“For what?”Eric involuntarily squeezed his phone tightly.Nicole said, “You were the one who helped to block the news regarding Isaac’s incident, right?”Eric paused and was silent for a few seconds.“How did you know?”Nicole did not say anything and glanced at Clayton, who was focused on driving.Eric smiled. His tone when he spoke was slightly languid.“It’s nothing. It was just a small effort. I already showed him mercy by not stabbing him instead.”Nicole tried to appear calm.“No matter what, I still have to thank you. When you come back, I... Clayton and I will treat you to dinner.”Eric stood there. The blood seemed to freeze in his veins.He sti
