Fortunately, Hamilton was mentally strong. He quickly smiled and said, “Logan is dealing with some important matters in the office, so I volunteered to run errands for him. It’s also because I really wanted to meet you formally, Ms. Stanton. Please forgive me if I’ve offended you.”Nicole raised her eyebrow. At least, he made her feel comfortable.He was not a scheming or calculative person and was more like an innocent boy.Nicole chuckled. “You're welcome, I heard from my father that you’re his friend’s son. Which family are you related to?”“Lance Sheldon is my cousin. It’s actually quite a coincidence. I was going to join my cousin’s company, but he suddenly withdrew his business from Atlanta. Fortunately, you and Uncle Floyd are still willing to take me in.”Nicole paused slightly and looked up at him.“Lance?”Lance gave up on his plans in Atlanta not long after Yvette’s passing.With Lance’s ability, if he followed his plan to expand his business in Atlanta, he would hav
Seeing that Nicole was furious, Logan immediately said, “No, President. Hamilton is a rookie in the workplace because he just graduated. He’s very curious and wants to learn everything. Since you’re not around, I don’t know what work I should arrange for him.”Nicole glanced at him.“He just came out of my office. What is he doing there?”Logan was slightly surprised. “I told him not to casually go in and out of your office.”Nicole looked at him in silence.Logan pursed his lips and stood up immediately.“I’ll go and check the surveillance footage.”Logan was too careless.In the past, no one could enter Nicole’s office.Logan would only go in to get some documents. Everyone else also knew the rules.Hamilton went into Nicole’s office rashly and got caught by Nicole.If he took away any confidential documents, Logan would not be able to bear the consequences.Logan saw the surveillance footage and instantly relaxed.He showed it to Nicole and smiled.“Hamilton went in to
Nicole did not move and responded, “Speak.”Looking at the scenery was better than looking at Hamilton.Hamilton said, “When Uncle Floyd arranged for me to be by your side, he actually wanted us to go on a blind date!”Nicole blinked and gritted her teeth.“I don’t think so. Why haven’t I heard of it? He just told me to take care of you and didn’t say anything else. Besides, I have a daughter. You wouldn’t just blindly listen to our parent’s arrangements, right?”Nicole said everything she wanted to say.Hamilton paused slightly.He blushed unconsciously and sneaked a glance at her indifferent face.“Of course, I won’t. But this has nothing to do with your kid or marital status.”Nicole finally looked at him seriously.Hamilton said, “If we have feelings for each other, I won’t mind that you have children of your own, and I won’t mind that you’re a year older than me.”Nicole blinked. “I mind. I don’t like younger men.”Hamilton was a little disappointed. “Oh.”The waiter
Kira’s smile stiffened, but she did not reveal anything.When Hamilton went outside, he saw that Nicole was still there.She stood by the car and looked like she was in a trance.Hamilton walked over. “President, you didn’t eat much earlier. Why don’t we eat somewhere else?”Nicole raised her chin and gestured arrogantly for him to open the door.Hamilton was speechless as he thought, ‘Was she waiting for me to open the car door for her all this time? She’s such a princess! No wonder she’s never satisfied with the coffee I make!’He opened the door for her.Nicole got into the car and said, “Let’s go back to the office.”Hamilton sat in the passenger seat and looked back at her hesitantly.“President, did I really eat a fly just now?”Nicole did not even lift her eyelids.“What do you think?”Hamilton hesitated. Although he did not eat much earlier, he no longer had an appetite.Nicole held the phone and was contemplating calling Camille.Camille might know whether Clayto
Nicole stood at the railing at the center of the hospital and looked down, waiting for Floyd and the others to come over.She wondered whether she should get someone to search through the entire hospital for that man, but she was not sure.Floyd and the others would certainly find out if there was a commotion, and they would worry about her.Nicole took a deep breath.Just when she was about to take out her phone to ask the driver why Floyd had not arrived yet, she inadvertently saw a familiar person.It was the woman she met during lunch, Kira.Kira limped toward the seating area downstairs and looked as if she had sprained her foot.Nicole frowned slightly.What a coincidence.The next second, Nicole’s face instantly paled.A man in black clothes also limped over with a payment receipt.Kira raised her head and smiled at him shyly.That man looked like Clayton, not Jeff or someone else.It was Clayton!Nicole did not know how he reconstructed his face back to its origin
Julie pursed her lips, thought about it for a moment, and said, “Nicole, calm down first. Let me analyze it for you. We can’t be sure of his relationship with that woman. But right now, you two are still married. No matter who is around him, you’re still his wife. Since Clayton is back, he must’ve come back to look for you. Otherwise, why would he stay in Mediania where he has far less influence?”Nicole’s eyelashes trembled slightly. She looked up at Julie.“Really?”Julie patted her on the shoulder and said with a smile, “There’s also another possibility. What if he lost his memory due to the earthquake or some other reason? Maybe that’s why he didn’t come back to look for you. After all, you also lost your memory back then when you gave birth to Chatty. Remember?”Nicole’s face froze slightly and turned a little pale.Did he forget her?If he lost his memory, why did he come back to Mediania?However, if he did not lose his memory, why did he not look for her?Nicole gritted
Levi was left outside.Nicole touched Levi’s forehead and found that he was sweating profusely.“Don’t worry, Leaf. Your mom will be fine.”“Auntie, was Mommy in so much pain when she gave birth to me?”Nicole’s heart softened when she saw his sad face.“Yes, pregnancy is like this. But your mom loves you, so even though it hurts, it’s still bearable.”Although Levi was a boy, he was much more sensitive than other boys.At the same time, Chatty obediently ran to Nicole’s side and stayed there.She hugged Nicole’s leg, raised her head, and stroked Nicole’s belly.“Mommy, will you give birth to a little monster for me soon?”Nicole looked at her speechlessly and thought, ‘They’re both kids. Why can Levi be so attentive to Aida, but Chatty is so naive that I feel like beating her up?’Fischer pulled Chatty and said, “Don’t you want Ultra Princess?”“Then Mommy should give birth twice!” Chatty was decisive.Nicole gritted her teeth. “You two should go somewhere else.”Kai and
Nicole’s face froze slightly.She stared into space for a moment and smiled.“I guess I should take the initiative first, huh?”What if Clayton was really ill or had amnesia? Nicole would have misunderstood him.Now that he was back, Nicole would take care of him in every possible way as he took care of her back then.Julie nodded and held her hand.“You should take your time. If possible, bring him back first.”“Yeah, I’ll see how it goes.”Nicole smiled and thought about the back view of the two people leaning on each other while walking out of the hospital. That image made her feel uncomfortable.She wanted to figure out their relationship first.After a short chat, the two ladies went upstairs to rest.For several days, Nicole went back and forth between the office and the hospital.Grant did not go to the office at all. If there was something urgent, they had to call him. Otherwise, he did not want to be disturbed.Thus, Nicole was withheld by the subordinates and had
