When Nicole heard this, she nodded and smiled. “That’s good.”If Clayton said that he would control his emotions, then he could definitely control them.Originally, it was not a big deal, so there was no need to make anyone feel uncomfortable.It was just that Nicole did not mind people knowing about their current relationship, but it was not to the point where she would announce it to the whole world.The two of them looked at each other and smiled. This matter passed.The next second, Nicole’s phone rang.It was Logan.She immediately picked it up.“Logan?”Logan asked anxiously. “President, where have you been? I can’t see you when I turn around.”Nicole pursed her lips. It was probably because there were too many people just now and they were scattered.“I’m here at the warehouse that we just passed by just now…”Nicole hung up and raised her head to see Clayton looking at her seriously.“Logan is not just in charge of your daily work, huh?”Nicole looked at Clayton’s
Logan’s shout drew a lot of attention.Some security guards and reporters gathered there.It was a live broadcast.The netizens were shocked at this scene.How dare that reporter do such a thing?[Isn’t that the reporter?][What is he doing? Is he trying to kill someone? That person is Nicole!][Quick, put down the knife! Everything can be talked through!][OMG, this is terrible! That reporter must be desperate, right?]......Logan stood at the front. He calmed down after the panic.His gaze was tightly fixed on the man behind Nicole.“Don’t make a move. What do you want? We can talk. You should know who you’re holding hostage, right?”The man laughed lightly. His blade came closer and pressed against Nicole’s skin.Nicole subconsciously lifted her head and leaned back.She shot Logan a look.Logan looked at the reporter calmly.“You were incited by someone to do this, so you’re not the one we’re ultimately looking for.”That reporter finally could not help but speak
Nicole was just about to say something, but Logan had already escorted her out.She had no choice but to go. Otherwise, there would be more people gathering here.Luca already picked up the reporter like a chicken and beat him with all his might. One punch was enough to knock him out.When they got to the car, Logan took the first aid kit and helped to disinfect Nicole’s wound.“President, it’ll be done soon.”Nicole wrinkled her eyebrows. “Watch that person well. Don’t let him run away.”Logan nodded. “Don’t worry. We’ll interrogate him before we hand him over to the police. Otherwise, he’ll get off too easily.”Nicole nodded. She had the same thoughts.After all, this was Sand City. There were many places in this city that she could not touch.It was most important to seize the opportunity and ask everything.The blood from the wound coagulated.The wound was not deep, but it was painful.Nicole slowly breathed a sigh of relief.Today was just a scare.Suddenly, she see
There was a hint of weirdness in Autumn’s voice.Nicole’s face was glum. “You did it?”“I’m not that capable. I’m just a spectator watching a good show and giving you a heads up.”After saying that, Autumn hung up the phone.Nicole looked at the phone and froze for a few seconds.Logan came over.“President, that reporter is willing to clarify that he started this rumor.”Nicole looked at him.“Don’t give him a chance to be on camera. Give his confession to the police so that they could post it officially online. Let the police clarify the whole thing in their name. Also, I want to sue him for threatening me earlier.”Her tone was extremely cold.Logan nodded his head.Of course, with Nicole’s status, she could not let this go so simply.Logan was not comfortable with Luca dealing with the police, so he had to go personally.Nicole did not stop him. “Go ahead. Get Luca to go with you because with him there, that reporter won’t dare to lie.”Logan nodded.“You should rest
Nicole could not help but cough. The warehouse was filled with flammable building materials. Once the window was opened, the fire would spread rapidly, and she would soon be burned alive.She leaned against the other side of the wall to breathe and keep herself away from the scorching heat.No matter how hard she held on, it was just getting hotter and hotter.Nicole felt her head was starting to get dizzy, and the temperature around her was getting warmer like she was in an oven.......Clayton woke up and rubbed his head that hurt like hell, only to find himself lying in an unfamiliar place.His surroundings looked like a hotel. He was not far from the hotel where he and Nicole were staying.‘How did I end up here?’ Clayton thought.His brain spun, and he suddenly thought of the sneaky man that he went after. As soon as he saw the man, another man sprang out of nowhere and violently struck him.That man was extremely fast and had received professional training.Clayton did
Clayton narrowed his eyes and stared at Quavon. He did not answer immediately.His heart was suspicious, and he always felt that something was wrong.Clayton had a bad feeling that kept spreading in his heart.“It’s not up to you whether I want it or not. It doesn’t have anything to do with you either, so you don’t need to worry about me.”Clayton said this, then turned around to leave the place. He wanted to see Nicole.He wondered if Nicole was anxious when he disappeared.However, just as Clayton took two steps out, Autumn shouted at him anxiously.“Mr. Sloan, your body is still not recovered. Why don’t you have something to eat first?”Clayton paused and looked back at her.There was indifference in his eyes.“What benefit did Quavon give you that you’re here to offer your services?”Autumn froze and stood there with a glum face.She looked at Quavon sheepishly, wanting him to say a couple of good words.Quavon also spoke in due time.“Clayton, Ms. Ferguson is Isaac’s
Autumn was shocked as she stood aside.She could not digest all the information and Quavon’s sudden anger.‘Isaac Sloan is paralyzed? Clayton’s about to inherit the entire Sloan Corporation?’Autumn felt like she found out some big shocking secret.Did Nicole do it?Every time Autumn looked at Clayton, he was so gentle and self-possessed, as if he was born to stand tall in the sun. He had the courage to be ambitious and had the experience of coming from an extraordinary background.In the eyes of outsiders, Clayton was a successful man who had been carefully nurtured. Although he had no rights to the inheritance, his resume was polished enough.At this moment, Clayton stood there, tall and upright. His warm and gentle smile was nowhere to be seen. His eyes were sharp, and his face was gloomy, somber, and cold, as if he had turned into a different person.Quavon finished speaking and glared at Clayton intently.He was resentful and reluctant, but he had no other choice. He coul
Clayton laughed.“Oh, you won’t feel guilty. You’re just a demented person! You’d rather brand yourself as a good brother who doesn’t care about gains or losses and old traditions like a son inheriting his father’s business. But then you came to me when Isaac got into an accident. Aren’t you just exposing your ugliness like that?”For a while, Quavon used a lot of effort to control his emotions.Quavon was about to die of anger.“Clayton, who taught you to talk to me like that? Also, you better shut up about all that nonsense!”Clayton shrugged, looking unruly and uninhibited.He did not care at all.He thought that those scandals were too dirty to even listen to.“That’s why you’d better stay away from me. Don’t even try to target me. Oh, that goes for Nicole too. Otherwise, I’ll leak this to the biggest media in the world. They should be very interested.”Clayton finished with a threatening tone, turned around, and walked away. His eyes were gloomy and hostile.“Clayton, I
