Nicole smiled and did not continue to speak.By the time Michael grows up, perhaps Nicole’s relationship with Clayton would have settled down or they would have broken up. Who could tell?It was better to just cherish the moment!Nicole brought Michael to the office. The boy was very well-behaved and sat inside Nicole’s office obediently. He would look at some news with his iPad from time to time, and occasionally, he would look at the stock market trends. Seeing this, Nicole was surprised, but when she thought about how Clayton had always given Lil Michael the best education, it was not so strange that Michael could read these at his age.From time to time, Logan came in to deliver documents. When Logan saw Lil Michael sitting there, Logan would give him some snacks each time he came in. Thus, Lil Michael became Logan’s little fan.“Uncle Logan, you’re really amazing! Do you get to spend all day with Pretty Lady? In the future, I also want to study hard and be like you so that
Before Clayton could make a sound, another assistant said, “Ms. Stanton is very busy!”“Even if she’s busy, it doesn’t mean that she won’t surprise Mr. Sloan. Not to mention, Mr. Sloan has returned all the shares of the Sloan Corporation to Ms. Stanton and he’s just dealing with those company matters in name only. It’s evident how much Mr. Sloan likes her!”“Ms. Stanton still doesn’t know about this, so don’t blurt it out and ruin Mr. Sloan’s plan. Right, President?”Clayton smiled and looked at the watch on his wrist.“Right, but she’ll know sooner or later since there’s nothing to hide. It’s late, so you guys should head back. I’ll…”Before Clayton could finish his sentence, the assistant in the back stretched out his hand in shock to point forward.“That... Isn’t that Ms. Stanton?”Clayton faintly froze. His eyes instantly lit up, but in the next second, his smile faded.His eyes narrowed slightly and sank coldly.The assistant at the back went to take a closer look.“Oh,
Clayton gave Angie a deep look, lifted his feet, and left.Angie froze for a moment. Her face was slightly glum.Clayton was not a simple man. At least, he was much more complex than she had anticipated.Not many people knew of her name, Angie.It had only been a day, but Clayton had already found out.“Mr. Sloan, I just want you and Ms. Stanton to make your relationship public as soon as possible. The sooner the world knows that you’re together, the better!”Clayton paused when he heard Angie’s words.“Only then will you catch Eric off guard. That’s the only way that Eric will be more scrupulous.”Angie was a little anxious because she could not give up this opportunity.Clayton would be her biggest help.Clayton turned his head. His gaze was dark and deep as he looked at her. His thin lips parted slightly.“If you want Mr. Ferguson to be with you, I have a better way…”--Nicole and Lil Michael stood in the living room, looking at the two suitcases. The two of them looke
The living room seemed to be silent for a moment.Clayton reacted and looked serious for a moment before he smiled at Yvette.“Ms. Quimbey, you’re overthinking it. I just don’t want my beloved to see me looking so haggard. That will just reduce my charm!”Nicole laughed and looked back at Yvette.“Yvette, don’t scare him. Lil Michael will pick up on all the wrong things…”Yvette snorted and did not want to dwell on it anymore. She turned around and went back into the kitchen.Lil Michael came over and pried Clayton’s hand off of Nicole. He held up his arm that was in a cast and looked at Clayton with a straight face.“Daddy, when Pretty Lady went to pick me up from the hospital today…”Lil Michael chattered continuously as Clayton patiently waited for him to finish without interrupting him.Nicole went to the kitchen to prepare some fruit and gave Yvette a hand. She felt embarrassed for letting Yvette cook for several people.Yvette glanced outside and leaned in close to Nico
The corners of Nicole’s mouth twitched. If they continued to talk, she would probably get into a fight with Yvette.Thus, Nicole simply looked away and watched the TV show seriously.When they were eating, all three of them praised Clayton’s cooking.Even Yvette could not pick any fault with it. Yvette forgot all about her image when she ate.Nicole laughed and was speechless.Lil Michael was quipped and made funny faces on the side. He was complaining about his school and wanted to transfer to a different school. Clayton attempted to deter his son’s nonsensical actions with his stern gaze.Nicole thought about it. It was indeed not suitable for small children to continue to study in that kind of environment.“Why don’t we transfer Michael out? There’s no guarantee that the teachers there won’t be vindictive…”Clayton was very calm without the slightest fluctuation on his face.“That won’t happen. That teacher has been dismissed. That child has also left the school. I’ve discu
Lil Michael learned painting from a professional abstract painter, but he could also paint realistic pieces.The boy looked so professional in his artist apron. He lifted his head and looked at Clayton.“This is me, and that’s Pretty Lady!”Lil Michael pointed to the painting that seemed to have three figures.Clayton nodded and pointed to another person.“What about this one?”Lil Michael stammered and was hesitant.Clayton narrowed his eyes and stared at his son with an intimidating gaze.“Hmm? Who are you painting?”Nicole finished her phone call and leisurely came over to join in the fun.Sure enough, there was another man next to the little child in Michael’s painting.Could it be Clayton?That could not be because if it was Clayton, why would Lil Michael be stammering?Lil Michael muttered, “This is Big Brother Logan!”There was a moment of silence in the living room.Even Yvette could not help but glance sideways to watch the drama unfold.Clayton’s temperament i
Nicole casually nodded. Anyway, Nicole and Yvette were about the same size. When they used to sleep over at each other’s houses after a long night of having fun, they would often wear each other’s clothes. Thus, it was their norm.Yvette hurriedly got dressed and took away one of Nicole’s new bags on her way out.Nicole laughed when she saw this and sent Yvette to the door.“Call me if you need help!”“Got it!”As they were talking, another elevator stopped on Nicole’s floor. Clayton looked at the scene with deep eyes.“Ms. Quimbey just left?”Nicole nodded her head.Clayton breathed a sigh of relief and looked very happy as he walked out of the elevator with big strides.“Great! This third wheel is finally gone…”Before Nicole could react, Clayton’s big hands wrapped around Nicole’s waist. He pulled Nicole toward him and kissed her passionately.The two of them were immersed in this kiss and were reluctant to part from each other.Clayton did not dare to be intimate with N
As a result, after a few seconds, Mrs. Quimbey only stared at her daughter quietly with a sunken face and did not make a sound.Yvette could not stand the silence and said, “Just go ahead and scold me if you want to! I’m ready for it!”She felt uncomfortable if her mother did not scold her.Mrs. Quimbey stared at her daughter who was spoiled and capricious. Yvette had been in all kinds of trouble, but no matter how much she was disciplined, she just could not learn to control her temper.“I remember that you said those bold words here in this office three months ago, telling me that you must be with that man even if you never get married or get a title…”Mrs. Quimbey’s tone was sullen and cold. She watched as Yvette’s expression stiffened and crumbled a little.She felt a little heartbroken.After all, Yvette was her daughter.“Mom, can you not mention this?”Yvette looked at her mother. Her face was expressionless when she spoke, but her eyes unconsciously reddened.Mrs. Qui
