Chapter 1674 You’re Going Too Far
The two men shopped until the mall closed, and they carried many bags with them.Roland felt that he had never been so attentive to his girlfriend before.Now, a wave of guilt arose.However, the guilt soon disappeared.That was because Roland did not want to go through this again.Clayton was satisfied and sent a video to Nicole.“I bought everything on your list except a limited-edition lipstick. They say that it’ll arrive tomorrow, so I’ll come back tomorrow to get it.”Soon, Nicole replied with a thumbs-up emoji.Clayton instantly smiled with joy.It was worth the pain and suffering!At night.Clayton looked at some documents for a while and could not resist taking the initiative to contact Nicole.Although they were not on great terms when he left on this business trip, after Nicole took the initiative to call him, the trace of gloom in Clayton’s heart disappeared completely.Clayton thought, ‘So what if we don’t get married? It’s also fine if we’re in a relationship
Chapter 1675 The Reward That Belongs to Me
The bathtub was Nicole’s favorite flower petal shape. It had an automatic massage function that was very comfortable to lie in.Nicole could not help but sigh deeply and closed her eyes to enjoy the feeling of being immersed in the hot water.She felt like even her bones were relaxed in an instant.For a while, Nicole forgot that she was still on a video call with Clayton.The camera was almost blurred by the fog.Clayton squinted his eyes and tried to restrain himself. The changes in his body were too obvious.Especially after getting a taste of her, his self-control weakened significantly whenever he was with her.Clayton saw her lying there comfortably enjoying her bath and thought about all the times they were intimate. She was the one who liked to enjoy the most.Whenever she took the initiative, it was enough for him.Seeing that things were getting out of control, Clayton took a deep breath. “You’re such a sexy little devil.”His voice was low and dark, which woke Nico
Chapter 1676 The Price We Pay
Roland finished in one breath. He saw that Clayton fell silent and felt apprehensive. Did he say too much?However, after a night of tossing and turning, Roland felt that Clayton’s decision was a bit detrimental to himself.This was not like Clayton’s style.Clayton was a profit-oriented investor.The elevator arrived.The two of them went out of the elevator, walked outside, and got into the car.The car steadily drove but inevitably encountered the rush-hour traffic.Clayton spoke lightly and explained.“Do you think that by keeping those people, we can avoid the company’s decline? From the beginning of Isaac’s private deal, the entire company was pushed to the forefront. There are many who want to push us down when we’re unstable. What I’m doing now is pushing myself down so that others won’t have the chance to.”Roland paused. “But the price we pay is too much.”Clayton let out a light laugh. “The price?”His voice was a bit cool and dull. “It’s not on me. It’s on the Sl
Chapter 1677 Salary Increment
Clayton simply sipped his coffee and watched the stock market, as if he was indifferent to what was going on outside.In just one hour, more than a dozen people came over to settle accounts with Jake.Some went over to beg for forgiveness, to please Jake, or to withdraw their resignation letters. These people were mostly those who had just joined the company and had not yet established a firm footing.Others went over to bribe Jake and used all sorts of methods to make Jake turn a blind eye when the accounts were checked.......Clayton shook his head and smiled. It was very entertaining.Two hours later.Jake refused to meet anyone. He was so tired that he could barely open his eyes.He saw that Clayton was sitting there leisurely, bathing in the sun as if he was on vacation.Then, he looked at his miserable self. For a moment, Jake could not accept their great disparity in moods.Jake walked over and sighed.“Mr. Sloan, see this situation? That meeting yesterday threw the
Chapter 1678 Extraordinary Care
Clayton actually wanted to leave a long time ago. He would not have stayed if he did not spend time screening the new candidates.Talent was their main dilemma.Now that this biggest problem was solved, there was no need to bother with the rest.Jake pursed his lips and did not know what to say. He regained his composure and asked. “Mr. Sloan, you’ve thought of it long ago? Why didn’t you bring it up?”Clayton raised his eyebrows. “You’re the president, so you’re in charge. If you didn't mention this, I wouldn’t have taken these out either. I’m just helping you.”Jake was speechless for a moment.Jake felt that if he had not brought up the idea himself, Clayton would deliberately make him pay for the breach of contract.After all, there was no better way at the moment.Clayton turned the screen in front of him so that Jake could see more clearly.“Today, Sloan Corporation’s stocks have already started to fall. When they resign, it’ll fall even more. I’ll have someone divert
Chapter 1679 Visiting Your Father
The director lamented as he spoke. A trace of mockery crossed Clayton’s eyes.Brotherly love?On the surface, Quavon was still Isaac’s big brother, and Isaac was Clayton’s uncle.However, Quavon and Isaac were not brothers.After that fig leaf was removed, some things were still too disgusting to say out loud.Clayton stepped inside. “They didn’t want to leave?”The director paused.“Of course, they want to! There have been several groups of people who came one after another, our layers of bodyguards aren’t just for show. Moreover, I change their rooms and courtyards every few days randomly, so those people simply can’t predict where Mr. Quavon is.”The director was quite proud of himself when he said this.Clayton silently smiled.“No outsiders came to see them?”“None through regular channels, but there’s always someone who wants to talk to Mr. Quavon. They even sent a nurse in. By the time I found out, the nurse had already run away, but we immediately strengthened our se
Chapter 1680 Push Him Out the Window
Clayton walked in. His gaze indifferently swept over his surroundings. He hooked his lips and asked, “I heard that your health is much better now?”When Quavon was admitted here back then, he was in a very bad state.Quavon’s most beloved son became a vegetable, and the career that he was most proud of became someone else’s. How could a normal person withstand such a blow?However, Quavon was no ordinary man.No matter what, Quavon was able to make a name for himself in the Libertian business world.Thus, Quavon still had remaining power.Quavon looked at Clayton with a gloomy gaze. He did not have a trace of compromise or goodwill in his eyes. “Sorry to let you down, but I still have a long way to go before dying.”At this point, Quavon and Clayton had completely fallen out with each other. There was no need to maintain their superficial father-son bond for the sake of certain interests.After all, judging by the current situation, Clayton was the clear winner.Clayton saw th
Chapter 1681 Transfer Records
Clayton’s voice was cold like it was drenched in ice. “You blamed everything on me and made everyone think that I pushed her down. You kept me not because I was your son, but because you needed a scapegoat to divert others’ attention and cover up this scandal, right?”Did the Sloan family raise Clayton? Was Clayton so ungrateful to bite the hand that fed him?What about the blood feud between them?Did they think that it could be buried in the past forever?Clayton already forgot what that so-called “mother” looked like, but he had dreamed of that scene more than once.In his impression, that mother did not care much about him.She only gave birth to him and used him so she could join the Sloan family.However, she did not expect Clayton’s value to be so low because the Sloan family did not care about an illegitimate son at all.Thus, Clayton was tortured by that psychotic mother for a long time without relief.When that woman died, Clayton fell into another type of torment.
