Floyd could not stand it anymore.He pulled Kai’s ear, gnashing his teeth.“You little brat. Even if you flop, I won’t go bankrupt. You better think about yourself. When you’re going to flop, dig a hole and bury yourself in it. Don’t say that you’re my son!”Kai wanted to bite his tongue off.He once again poked the hornet’s nest.He was just asking for death!“Dad, my dear father, spare me this time. I won’t dare to do it again!”Nicole laughed happily from the side, the depressed mood from before nowhere to be seen.She always felt warm in the room.Not long after, Kai successfully managed to piss Floyd off until he ran away.However, after this episode, Floyd’s expression was much better, and he was not as cautious and worried about Nicole’s fears anymore.Kai held his reddened ears and sat there with a sigh.“I need to find a chance to do a DNA test. I suspect that I’m not really Dad’s biological son!”Nicole raised her eyes. “That’s great. Then can you give me all you
Kai paused. When he listened to Nicole’s plan, he spoke up hesitatingly.“Actually, the atmosphere in the circle is very tense now. The authorities intend to start cleaning up the industry, so everyone is in danger. They’re all afraid that their dark history will be caught and amplified. Also, don’t just think that public opinion is important. Those who can control public opinion are the real powerful ones. Our company’s spokesperson was also swept along by it. If he’s implicated, it’ll easily affect the brand image.”Nicole paused and listened quietly.Kai’s words were very reasonable. She had not thought too deeply about that aspect.However, even the world’s top companies needed brand image spokespersons to represent them.“I know it’s risky. That’s why I’m being more careful.”Changing their spokesperson often was the method she thought about. That way, they would not have to worry about the validity period of their spokesperson.To a corporation, it was a kind of safeguard.
Nicole grinned and turned her head to the side, looking at Kai.“It’s the oden shop downstairs at Julie’s place. Remember to bring it back!”She knew at a glance where he wanted to go.He was thinking about Julie, right?Nicole was not the kind of person who broke couples apart.Kai’s gloomy expression instantly turned sunny. He quietly held out a finger and pointed at her.“As expected of my sister. I’ll clear out your shopping cart when I come back. You can choose what you want first.”Then, he walked away happily while humming a tune.Nicole smiled and watched Kai leave while giggling as if there was nothing in the world bothering him.It was a shame he was not willing to use his brain. Otherwise, with his skills, he would not be any worse off than her or Grant.Nicole did not bother to inquire about Eric, but Grant would occasionally say a word or two so she would not be completely in the dark.Apart from researching the plan, she spent most of her time going to see Clay
Lil Michael’s voice rang out, and Nicole instantly stood up. Her expression changed dramatically.“What went missing?”Lil Michael was bewildered and anxious.“Daddy is missing! I went there earlier but no one was there.”Nicole looked at Kai, who froze while holding a skewer, not knowing whether to continue eating.“Maybe he went for an examination.”The nurses and doctors were always like that.Nicole’s face changed as her heart suddenly sank.“No, his examination was done twenty minutes ago. He can’t have another checkup in such a short period of time.”She panicked as she spoke, and she quickly ran out.Lil Michael followed closely behind with his two short little legs.The hospital bed in Clayton’s room was empty.He really went missing.The doctor was doing his rounds when he saw Nicole and Lil Michael standing there with serious expressions. He also knew that with Nicole’s identity, she could not be neglected, so he hurriedly went over to ask.“Ms. Stanton, what ha
The doctor standing not far away could not bear to watch any longer.His patient just wanted to hug Nicole. Why was that so difficult?Under Nicole’s rebuke, Kai emotionally let go of Clayton.“I... I'll inform the others!”Clayton was awake. They could leave this place immediately!It was clear skies after the rain.Lil Michael sniffled and let go, tilting his head up to look at Clayton.His daddy got better, and his wish came true, so he would give Pretty Lady to his daddy for now.After all, the patient was the most important.Clayton watched her stand there motionlessly for a few seconds of silence.They looked at each other, but no one spoke again.The next second.He smiled and took a step forward, but this step was a little difficult.His face instantly paled, different from his previous appearance.Clayton almost lost his balance, but just as he was about to fall, a warm and soft body suddenly jumped into his arms, holding onto his waist.His chest choked and he
From the time Nicole disappeared, Clayton had so many things he wanted to say.The earth-shaking changes left him with no one to talk to.Fortunately, he still had the chance to tell her.Nicole nodded and watched the doctor push him in. Director Sven and the expert team soon got the news and went inside too.The curtain inside was drawn shut, as if separating them into two worlds.Nicole stood there and waited for a full hour, not even changing her posture.No one knew what she was thinking. Her thoughts were scattered and messy, but her mood was inexplicably relaxed.Hearing the sound of footsteps behind her, Nicole did not even have to think to know that Kai had brought the others over.“Lil N, I heard he woke up?”Floyd walked over with a glint in his eye.No matter what, he did not want his daughter to get hung up over a vegetable for the rest of her life. It was good that Clayton was awake.Nicole raised her head, looked at Floyd, and nodded with a smile.“He’s gettin
Kai pouted at Grant’s warning.He only pursed his lips and did not dare to curse Eric any longer.However, Kai had already scolded Eric ten thousand times in his heart.Nicole thought quietly for a moment and nodded.“Let’s wait for Clayton’s health to improve first. We can’t let anything go wrong for now.”Grant nodded.Aida thought about it and spoke worriedly.“If Eric finds out that Lil N isn’t dead, will he come over to look for trouble?”Grant’s gaze darkened, and his expression instantly became cold.“What right does he have to come and look for trouble? Our family didn’t ask for his help!”Kai snorted. “Exactly!”Before long, the doctors came out one after another.Director Sven walked over with a relaxed expression and a smile on his face.Grant smiled faintly. “Uncle Sven, it seems there’s good news?”Director Sven sighed in relief. “Yes. As you can see, Mr. Sloan has recovered very well. All his vitals are within the normal range of recovery. It’s even better t
Nicole’s shoulders trembled slightly as she buried her face in Clayton’s hands. Her heart was indescribably sorrowful.She did not dare to imagine what would have happened if they had not been so lucky, or if he had not arrived just in time.There were only two results. One, Clayton would watch as Nicole was blown up, or they would be blown up together.Nicole was more afraid of the latter.At the beginning of this relationship, Nicole only wanted to date Clayton casually. It was because her feelings for him were not as deep.She coveted the light that came without reservation but did not want to give him any commitment.One failed marriage was already enough to wake her up.That was why in the past, no matter how much Clayton hinted, Nicole simply smiled and brushed it off.However, she now carried these heavy emotions that she could not let go of no matter what.How could a person be willing to throw his life away for her?Clayton felt the wetness in his hand and froze for
