Chapter 1977 This Is to Encourage You
Nicole dressed up nicely and had to go out of the house.Thus, Luca accompanied her to Clayton’s office.Nicole also called Floyd and said that she would take Chatty back for dinner.When Floyd heard this, he became energetic and muttered, “I told you that you didn’t have to bring her home. Look how convenient it would be if she stayed with me!”Nicole went straight to Clayton’s office without telling him, so Clayton did not know of her arrival.Clayton’s assistant was surprised by Nicole’s sudden visit, but he understood immediately after seeing the expensive pink diamond necklace around Nicole’s neck.“Madam, please wait a few minutes. Mr. Sloan is conducting an international video conference at the moment, so it may take a while.”Nicole nodded understandingly and took a seat on the side.The assistant brought over her favorite coffee, so she thanked him and put it aside.“Go about your business. You don’t need to worry about me.”“Yes, ma’am.”Clayton had no physical bus
Chapter 1978 When the Time Is Right
When Chatty woke up, the assistant brought in some dessert and coffee.Clayton finished some of the more urgent matters and pushed the rest to the afternoon.“Baby, you heard it just now. Tyler’s someone who would do anything for money. You can’t go out in public during this time unless you bring enough bodyguards.”Nicole nodded. She did not like to risk her life.“I know. I won’t go anywhere in the near future except for the office and Ian’s wedding.”Ian’s wedding was a must.Clayton nodded.He hesitated for a moment before he said, “Did Eric approach you recently?”Nicole shook her head calmly.“No, but I don’t know if he approached my brother. What’s wrong?”Clayton paused, and he looked serious.“It’s nothing. Mr. Ferguson’s family is in Tyler’s hands. I’m just afraid that he’ll do something in a moment of impulse.”Nicole frowned slightly.“Aren’t Ingrid and Quinn with Falcon?”Clayton was silent for a few seconds.“I’m not sure. Falcon is also looking for them.”
Chapter 1979 You Guessed It Right
Nicole patiently explained to Floyd that Chatty was taking a nap.Then, she showed Floyd her new necklace.Floyd put on his glasses and squinted at the necklace for a while.“Don’t you have a lot of these necklaces in your safe?”Nicole explained patiently, “Same color, different styles.”Floyd could not understand a girl’s obsession with jewelry details.He perfunctorily complimented Nicole and called Clayton over.“Are you going to Ian’s wedding with Nicole next week?”Clayton was stunned for a moment and nodded his head.“Yes, that’s what I planned.”Floyd and Clayton tacitly understood that they had to be alert since there was a dangerous terrorist around them.Nicole went into the kitchen to say hello to Mr. Anderson and came out with a snack.Clayton took out a tissue for her and wiped her mouth.It was such a natural action.The three adults were eating.Nicole lowered her head and ate seriously, but after a while, her plate was filled with all kinds of meat and v
Chapter 1980 Don’t Want to Leave You
Inside the room.Ian’s voice was calm, and he held a slight smile.He did not show any dissatisfaction or resistance.Nicole frowned slightly. “Is Lumi willing?”Ian paused, then nodded.“She’s also willing. We talked frankly about whether to keep this child and whether to get married. We’re both looking forward to marriage, so we’re willing to give it a try. But we just skipped the step of falling in love and jumped straight into marriage. It may not be perfect, but we know what we’re getting into.”Nicole raised her eyebrows. It sounded like Ian lost his mind.Many women in the gentry circle wanted to marry Ian Carter, but he chose Lumi Makinen, who did not have the best reputation and was also recently divorced.There must be many rumors about them.However, if they decided on this together, it meant that they were mentally prepared.No matter what, they could only congratulate the newlyweds.Julie nodded. “I’ve worked with Lumi before, and she’s a nice person. Since it’s
Chapter 1981 House on Fire
Clayton’s words were always a surprise to Nicole.Thus, Nicole’s heart melted, and she hugged him again.After Lumi finished changing her clothes, she came out and saw Nicole and Clayton glued together.At that moment, Lumi and her assistant, who were in the room, were petrified.Did they have to torment others like this?Lumi regretted saying those things in the past. It was really unnecessary.She just wished that she could go back in time.“Do you two know that this is my wedding?”Lumi could not help but ask.Nicole let go of Clayton and smiled.“I know. It’s not like I’ve never been married before.”After Nicole finished speaking, she dragged Clayton out.Clayton did not change his expression. He just nodded at Lumi and followed Nicole.Lumi pursed her lips and stared in their direction. She heard that Clayton was decisive and ruthless in the business world. He never showed mercy and was as unemotional as a robot.However, it did not seem right. Was the man who was h
Chapter 1982 He’s Afraid of You
If Nicole rushed into the hall now, she would definitely become the focus of attention and steal the bride’s limelight.Nicole’s dress had no pockets, so her phone was with Clayton.Nicole gritted her teeth and could not calm the anxiousness in her heart. She immediately glanced at the waiter and said, “Please go in later and tell Mr. Clayton Sloan about this.”The waitress quickly nodded.Nicole gritted her teeth and ran out while holding the hem of her skirt.She pushed open the door of the hotel.The car not far away really belonged to Kai, so Nicole ran over without hesitation.Just as she opened the back door, instead of seeing Kai and Julie as she expected, Nicole saw the man who wanted to tease her that day when they met on the golf course.Tyler?The man glanced at Nicole in amazement and shook his head with a smile.“Ms. Stanton, it’s so difficult to meet you!”Nicole suddenly felt relieved knowing that she had been deceived.At least, Floyd and Chatty were alright
Chapter 1983 Don’t Touch Her
Clayton glanced at Nicole and laughed.“Tyler is a treacherous person that’s capable of anything. He’s not afraid. He just hasn’t figured out how much power I have yet. If he knows that I’m weaker than him, he’ll definitely fight back. Do you know what a hyena is?”Nicole nodded.Clayton’s eyes darkened slightly. “He is one.”Nicole was silent for a while and did not make a sound.After a while, Clayton thought that Nicole was frightened, so he stretched out his hand to embrace her and patted her on the shoulder.“It’s okay. It’s normal to be afraid. He won’t be able to touch you with me around.”Nicole paused for a second and slowly said, “But he’s now targeting my family. He told me that the Stanton Mansion was on fire. I was too worried about my dad and Chatty, so I ran out here. As a result, Kai and Julie were in his hands… Who knows who he’ll target next?”Nicole did not know what to do when the people around her were implicated.She could not take good care of everyone a
Chapter 1984 The Next Step in the Plan
The air was stagnant for a moment.Mitchell was a little shocked. “Tyler lied to us? But we don’t have any news of Ms. Ferguson and Mrs. Ferguson yet. If we turn against Tyler now, I’m afraid…”Eric raised his hand. His eyes were cold.“How are the preparations that the Stanton family made? This project is important, so they must rely entirely on foreign forces. The Stanton family’s business abroad is completely independent of the domestic Stanton Corporation, which is the best help for us.”“You have already discussed with President Grant, so it’s naturally not a problem, but if he asks later…”Mitchell hesitated.“If he asks, then tell him the truth. As long as we can freeze Tyler’s illegal money, we’ll have the upper hand, then we’ll be able to execute the next steps.”Listening to Eric’s words, Mitchell nodded. However, Mitchell saw that Eric’s eyes were indescribably complicated and profound.If it were not for the constraints, how could such a proud person like Eric be in
