Although not much was exposed, Yvette’s figure was beautiful and curved in all the right places. All her advantages were accentuated and magnified.It was even more alluring than the dress with the bare back because it made people more curious about what was underneath. Their eyes could not help but follow Yvette.However, Yvette could not fully appreciate their thoughts.She just lamented that her good figure could not be admired and envied by others.“But what was all that noise just now?”Yvette did not forget the noise outside while she was changing into her dress earlier.Nicole smiled. “Eric came, so we scolded him.”Yvette froze and took a few steps forward in anger.“Why didn’t you call me?! I’ll scold him with you guys. With more people, we can drown him with our spittle!”Julie could not help but laugh. “You just need to focus on being a bride. Why are you still so impulsive?”Nicole nodded. “That’s right. You’re getting married in a few days, so don’t get involved
Roland said, “Mr. Sloan, I’ve asked the cleaners to tidy up your house, so you can rest assured. The company’s affairs have all been taken care of. The summary of the first stage has been sent to your email. You can read it when you have time.”Roland reported as he deftly came over to support Clayton.Clayton looked at him and did not move.Roland froze. He suddenly remembered something and slapped his head. Then, he quickly made way for Nicole.“Ms. Stanton, please…”Nicole, who was behind him, was speechless.Roland did not have any other expression, as if he did not know that Clayton almost died. He was also not at all surprised about Clayton’s hospitalization.Nicole could not help but feel a little surprised.Clayton happily stretched out his arm for Nicole so that she could come over and hold him.Nicole gave him a speechless look. Clayton was still so clingy and mushy in front of outsiders.She went over and slapped Clayton’s arm, then opened the door and walked out.
Eric looked at Nicole. His hands that were hanging at his sides were clenched tightly, so much so that his knuckles turned white. His heart felt like it was stabbed.He felt like even breathing was painful.Eric lowered his eyes and tried to hide the emotions in them.His heart was bitter and unbearably sad. After a long silence, he said in a raspy voice, “I just want to apologize to you, nothing else. If you don’t want to meet with me alone, you can bring someone with you…”This was his compromise.Eric had already lost.He did not name Clayton specifically, but they all understood.Clayton was surprised and raised his eyebrows slightly. He saw Eric’s gloomy and complicated face and was instantly in a good mood.His enemy’s pain was his pleasure!Even so, Nicole was not willing to agree.Talking to Eric would make her upset. She was not a generous and forgiving person, so why must she be forced to forgive him?Seeing this stalemate, Roland coughed on the side and stepped fo
Clayton smiled. His tone was warm and modest, but his eyes were not careless at all.Although Clayton did not deal with any company affairs during his recuperation, it did not mean that he was ignorant of everything that was happening in the outside world.Eric’s every move, even the smallest change, was within Clayton’s grasp.Clayton clearly had a profound understanding of the situation.Eric’s gloomy eyes swept him a glance. “That won’t happen. Thanks for your concern.”Clayton laughed lightly. He smiled and did not continue to speak.Since the stalemate was broken, Clayton only needed to be a spectator in their later conversation.Nicole impatiently said, “Hurry up and say what you need to. We’re in a hurry.”Eric’s face was tense. He pursed his lips and looked at Nicole with eyes that were overflowing with sadness.“You must hate me to death, right?”Nicole did not make a sound. She did not agree, nor did she deny it.Eric lowered his eyes to hide the despondency in the
Clayton had an intuition that this matter might have been related to him somehow.If Caleb allowed Nicole and Eric to talk before, then Nicole must have left the most important message for Eric to convey.Who was it about?Nicole sneered. “You didn’t because you were so self-conceited to think that you could solve it. You didn’t think that you would lose, so you didn’t take my words to heart at all, even if those words could possibly be my last words.”Eric’s face gradually turned ashen.Her accusation was even colder and more merciless than expected.Eric did not even have a chance to retort.There was a long silence.Nicole lazily leaned back on the lounge chair, but her eyes were icy cold.“I was dragged into this mess because of you, but you didn’t get me out. In the end, your interests are more important to you. Don’t deny it saying that you didn’t know what would happen and other nonsense like that. A kidnapper who can’t get random knows how to kill a hostage, let alone
Then, Clayton could stop those little moves he made in private against Ferguson Corporation.Poor Eric.Clayton straightened his jacket and looked at Eric meaningfully.“Goodbye, Mr. Ferguson.”Eric stared at Nicole’s departing silhouette without moving a muscle as if his soul left his body.However, the moment Clayton opened his mouth, Eric came back to his senses.His voice was rough as if it was ground by sandpaper.“You won…”Eric felt a sharp pain in his heart like countless hands tearing it apart. “Take care of her.”Eric said the last few words so lightly that they seemed to disappear into the air, but Clayton heard it.As Clayton lifted his leg to leave, he said, “You don’t need to concern yourself about her anymore.”Clayton did not need others to tell him what to do with his woman.......Nicole sat in the car and played with her phone with her head down.On the side, Roland carefully looked at Clayton and mouthed. “Is she angry?”Clayton rolled his eyes at him
Clayton said, “You’ve already talked enough for the both of us, so what else can I say?”Roland replied, “Tsk… Look at the way you put it. It’ll be boring for me to talk alone!”Clayton looked at him. “You don’t have a girlfriend, right?”“Of course not! I’ve given all my youth to you and the company!”Roland immediately expressed his loyalty.Clayton looked at the time. “I’ll give you three days off. Go get yourself a girlfriend…”Roland was so happy that he was glowing. “Really?! No, wait… How can I get a girlfriend in three days? Isn’t it too little?”“Then you can quit your job…”Roland’s smile instantly faded. “Three days is really quite a lot. Everything’s based on effort anyway. I’ll be able to get a girlfriend. Don’t worry, Mr. Sloan!”Clayton looked at him with a smile. “Your time off starts now…”Roland froze, immediately dropped the things in his hands, took his things, and ran out.“Goodbye, Boss!”After Roland left the place, he felt that something was off.Di
“I bought two properties over there. I’ve also ordered one for Nicole so that we’re on adjacent floors. It’s very convenient.”Clayton finished with a smile and took off the apron he was wearing.Grant and Kai looked at each other.Wow, how promising…Clayton took the opportunity to look at Nicole in passing.He was still shocked at why everyone from the Stanton family was here.However, after some thought, Nicole was only properly discharged from the hospital today.Clayton felt that he was a bit rude.“Should I leave?”Clayton spoke softly.He was also afraid of disturbing their family reunion. After all, Clayton was still not formally introduced to the Stanton family as Nicole’s boyfriend.Nicole spoke in a low voice. “No, they came here specifically to see you.”Clayton froze for a moment. His eyes widened.Suddenly, Clayton felt embarrassed.Nicole walked over and sat next to Floyd.“I think it’s fine here. If it’s too big, it’ll seem very empty, and I won’t be able
