Although Yvette was exposed for faking her cooking skills, she did not feel any guilt at all since she spent money to treat her guests to food.Nicole and Clayton finished their meal, and Yvette was almost done drinking.Yvette was slightly tipsy, and her face was slightly red.Clayton packed up the items and called the private restaurant for them to come and pick up the cutlery. Then, he saw Yvette holding the pile of snacks and beginning to eat.Nicole gave Clayton a look, and Clayton nodded regretfully before leaving upstairs.Nicole would probably not be able to come out tonight.She took a warm wet towel for Yvette and wiped her face.“Last night, he didn’t make a single phone call. But today, he made a hundred calls. Don’t you think he’s a scumbag? He even waited for my anger to subside before calling me to apologize.”Yvette laughed coldly.Nicole pursed her lips and poured a cup of honey water for Yvette.“I think that since you made up your mind, don’t hesitate anymo
Nicole looked at him suppressing the anxious look on his face and smiled faintly.“Mr. Moore, I'll say this again. She's not at my place. Please search somewhere else.”Then, Nicole turned around and pressed the button for the elevator.However, Sean did not give up and followed after her, holding the elevator doors and looking at her. The veins stood out on his forehead.“I want to talk to her!”Nicole said, “Contact her yourself.”“She's not picking up my calls. She's still angry with me.” His face was stiff and cold.Nicole said, “If she's not picking up your calls, then there are only two reasons. One, she's waiting for you to come to her door to apologize, but she didn't tell you where she is. Two, she wants you to give up.”Nicole smiled and looked at Sean's almost broken expression.Logan entered the building and saw the standoff at the elevator. He instantly acted as if he was facing a great enemy.He quickly got someone to drag Sean away from blocking the elevator an
There were clear hints of anger that were vaguely suppressed in Sean’s eyes.Sean clenched his fists tightly. “Did she tell you that?”Nicole smiled. “No. We never talk about stuff like that, but it doesn’t mean we don’t know.”Sean’s face eased slightly.“I only want to explain it to her.”“As far as I know, the people who chased after her that night were me and Julie. You didn’t even make a single phone call and didn’t care about her safety. Why are you so anxious now?”Nicole smiled at him. A trace of discomfort flashed in Sean’s eyes.The air was quiet for a few moments.Nicole guessed it was because he did not want to talk to her about these things.She could not be bothered to listen either.Nicole curled her fingers and knocked twice on the table. Her tone was calm and slow.“Go back. She’ll meet you if she wants to meet you. It’s useless for you to come to me.”Sean looked at Nicole. His lips were pressed into a straight line.His eyes were
Michael put his other arm around Nicole, flung himself into her arms, and nodded.“It hurts... It really hurts!”Nicole touched his little face, genuinely heartbroken.“It’s okay. I’ll take you back and fix it. It’ll get well soon.”Michael nodded solemnly and sniffled. He obediently let the doctor put the plaster on it.The teacher stood by the side and sighed in relief when everything was done.“Ms. Stanton, it won’t be convenient for Lil Michael to go to school in this condition. Why not let him rest at home for a while before coming back to school?”Nicole had the same thoughts and touched his head. “Okay.”The teacher smiled and was just about to say something when Lil Michael turned his head to look at Nicole.“Where’s Daddy?”“Your daddy went abroad for a meeting. He just left today and is still on the plane.”After she finished, she was afraid that he would think too much and hurriedly explained, “Don’t worry, I’ll explain it to your daddy. He won’t
Nicole paused, turned around to look at the teacher, and spoke gently.“Miss, I just want the principal to personally investigate this matter. Whether Max did it intentionally and whether he threatened Michael, there should be a result on whether these things are true or not. If you didn’t do anything wrong, then don’t worry about losing your job. If you did something wrong, then this job isn’t suitable for you. After all, not everyone can take on the job of teaching and educating others.”The teacher’s face turned a few shades whiter.Nicole smiled. “Why should I let Michael suffer just for you to keep your job?”The teacher’s eyes were written with panic and helplessness.“Ms. Stanton...”She thought she could turn a blind eye to it, but Lil Michael’s words exposed this matter.Lil Michael pulled Nicole’s hand and looked at the teacher.“As long as you let him come over and apologize to me and promise not to do anything harmful in the future, I can forgive him.”Nicole raise
After waiting for about twenty minutes, a slightly chubby middle-aged woman decked in jewels pulled an equally chubby and strong boy over.“You’re the child’s aunt as well as his teacher, and you couldn’t even solve this matter? It’s just a little spat between kids. What’s the big deal? Just pay more for his medical expenses. They’re obviously just trying to extort money!”The middle-aged woman was loud and full of vitality. The shiny gold chain around her neck could really blind someone.Just looking at her wrist, Nicole saw that she was wearing eight to nine bracelets, some of which were Cartier bracelets.It was clear at a glance that her family was rich and most likely a parvenu.Nicole looked at her a few times but did not seem to have an impression of this woman. It seemed that she never met the woman in the circle.The teacher desperately shot looks at her sister, signaling for her not to say anything further.However, the middle-aged woman seemed to have endless resentme
The chubby middle-aged woman snorted as if she was conferring a favor.“Fine, since we’re all here, let’s talk about it. The kids got into a fight, so I’ll handle the medical expenses.”The teacher walked over. “Tell Max to apologize and pay for the medical expenses.”The middle-aged woman raised her eyebrows. “What? Apologize? What do children know? What’s there to apologize for?”“It was Max’s fault. At first, he wanted to copy Michael’s answers and harbored a grudge when Michael refused to let him. Today, he intentionally pushed Michael down on the field. This was incredibly vile!”The teacher simply said everything without hiding any details.The middle-aged woman sneered.“Why would my son copy this little boy’s homework? He’s still so young. How could he be studying at the same grade as them? He must’ve gone through the back door, right?”The middle-aged woman stood up and walked over with her arms crossed.“It’s impossible for an apology. I don’t believe that my son wou
Nicole did not want to waste time. After calling Lil Michael, she took the bag in his hands, pulled his hand, and walked away.The teacher and Max were left behind with shocked eyes.Lil Michael saw the chubby middle-aged woman still wailing on the ground and was stunned.“How did she fall down the stairs?”The chubby middle-aged woman froze for a moment and raised her eyes to see Nicole’s cold and intimidating gaze.She shuddered slightly.Inexplicably, she panicked.Nicole smiled, turned to look at Lil Michael, and very patiently explained.“She felt that your injury wasn’t that painful, so she wanted to try it out herself.”“Oh, she’s so dumb!”......The two of them left the hospital and got into the car before Nicole found that her phone was ringing.It was from Clayton.Lil Michael muted it.Nicole glanced at him and smiled before answering the call.“Mr. Sloan, has your plane landed?”Clayton chuckled. “It just landed. I saw that you called me. Did something happ
