Chapter 2294 Goodbye, Daddy
Eric left the restaurant and felt the cold wind blowing on his face.He lost control when he saw Nicole with that boy toy, but the moment he saw Clayton, he was relieved.It was useless even if he was more persistent because everyone else had to step back as soon as Clayton returned.It was quiet in the restaurant.The few minutes felt like centuries.Kira saw this and asked everyone to retreat.Clayton stood there and stared at Nicole’s side profile intently, not knowing what to do for a moment.His appearance was too sudden.Nicole might not be mentally prepared, and she might be frightened.Clayton did not know how to explain what happened to his leg and that he might never be able to do strenuous exercises in the future.Would she despise a handicapped person like him?That complicated emotion surged up again, and no one made a sound for a while.Suddenly, they heard Chatty and Fischer playing nearby.Chatty spotted her father from far away. She excitedly left Fischer
Chapter 2295 Not Going Back
This kind of pressure was different from the feeling when Hamilton faced Eric just now.Eric’s rage came from anger and unwillingness, as well as his sense of self-superiority and contempt for others.However, Clayton was different. He was gentle but stern, and he made people feel oppressed by just standing there without speaking.It was obvious who was stronger among them.Hamilton subconsciously felt inferior to Clayton.He did not dare to be sarcastic as he did to Eric.Hamilton pursed his lips and nodded blankly.Then, he took Chatty’s and Fischer’s hands.“No worries, it’s my job. Goodbye.”After that, Hamilton took two steps out and suddenly remembered something, so he looked back at Clayton.“By the way, I’m Hamilton Scott, Ms. Stanton’s assistant… Don’t misunderstand our relationship. I just came here through the back door for an internship. I’m not her boy toy!”Hamilton said this mainly because he was afraid that Clayton would think the same way as Eric.Hearing t
Chapter 2296 Find Him
Nicole hastily recharged Chatty’s smartwatch and left the room.She went back to her bedroom and had no desire to continue working.After taking a shower, she lay on the bed without a hint of sleepiness.She went to look for the medicine prescribed by the psychiatrist, took two pills, and lay down again.Nicole felt that her current state was very strange.However, she did not know what was weird about it.They were obviously close, but there seemed to be an invisible distance between them. Thus, they lacked the intimacy of reuniting after so long.Hamilton was right. Nicole and Clayton did not look like a married couple.Something went wrong between them.That was the weird part.Nicole reached out and subconsciously touched her arm. She suddenly felt like hurting herself.The place she cut herself had a light scar.Thus, she avoided wearing sleeveless clothes recently.Fortunately, it was not summer.The corners of her mouth twitched. Soon after, she felt sleepy and clo
Chapter 2297 Shrinking Net Worth
Roland’s eyes were red as he spoke, and he did not finish his sentence.How could Clayton not know these things?Roland walked over excitedly and watched as Clayton limped down the stairs with a cane. Roland was shocked.He thought, ‘What happened to Mr. Sloan’s leg?’Roland’s face stiffened.Clayton looked indifferent and had no change in expression.A waitress who was in uniform and had a good figure quickly went over to Clayton when she saw this.“Sir…”Clayton glanced at Kira indifferently and looked away.The waitress withdrew her hand, looked at Clayton worriedly, and stepped aside.Roland blinked and suddenly realized something.He remembered Nicole’s expression when she told him that Clayton was still alive.Suddenly, Roland pursed his lips.There was a bit of silence in the air.Clayton came down the stairs slowly and steadily. He looked at Roland blankly and walked to the area behind the divider.“Follow me.”Roland hurriedly followed Clayton.He looked at Cl
Chapter 2298 You Can Leave
Clayton knew that mental health should not be neglected.His heart was hurting as if it was being eaten by ants.Roland paused. “I don’t know. I heard it from Logan. Madam usually contacts the psychiatrist privately.”“Go find out who her psychiatrist is.”Clayton spoke lightly.“Yes, sir.”Roland was in high spirits.He must fulfill Clayton’s request because this meant that Clayton still cared about Nicole.When Roland noticed that Clayton fell silent again, he realized that he should leave.Thus, he got up to say goodbye. Clayton nodded. Then, Roland left without saying anything.Clayton sat in the chair and was immersed in the shadows.He was silent and dispirited.At some point, Kira came over, pursed her lips, and said softly, “Sir, you should go in and rest. Otherwise, you’ll catch a cold.”Clayton frowned, and his handsome face darkened.His tone was not polite, but he was not ruthless either. There was a sense of oppression in his gentleness.“Kira, I said that y
Chapter 2299 Craving Candy
“You’re welcome. I’m glad that they came to the right place. These two kids were running around in the street hailing a cab. I wanted to send them to the police station, but they said they contacted you a long time ago. That’s why I brought them here…”The driver touched his head and felt a little embarrassed.Clayton’s face softened. He quickly took out $500 from his wallet and handed it over.“Thank you very much.”The driver glanced at it and handed back three $100 bills. “It’s not that much. $200 is enough.”He stuffed the money into his pocket shyly, nodded, and walked out.Clayton nodded.After the driver left, Clayton took a deep look at Chatty and Fischer.Fischer stood there obediently and knew he was in trouble.However, Chatty was unaware and happily hugged Clayton.Her eyes curved into little crescents.“Daddy, don’t you think we’re smart?”Clayton was silent for a moment. He squatted down and hugged Chatty.“You shouldn’t do this again.”He looked at Fischer
Chapter 2300 Coaxed
Nicole parked the car.Julie had already walked into the French restaurant.She had not noticed anything wrong yet.She just felt that it was quiet and elegant, which was decent compared to other high-end restaurants.“Hello, may I know how many people will be dining today?”“Two.”“This way please.”The waiter guided them to a table behind the divider.Julie inadvertently saw two familiar people.Kira knew that one of these two children belonged to Clayton.Clayton pampered the cute little girl and gave her everything she asked for. He even spoke to her gently and would not raise his voice at her.This little girl was really cute and tender. She inherited all the advantages of her parents.She had big eyes and long eyelashes. Her dark eyes were glimmering, and she had two small dimples when he smiled. She looked so sweet and pretty that it made people’s hearts melt.Clayton had to treat his leg with electromagnetic therapy for 40 minutes to an hour every day. He brought t
Chapter 2301 You Don’t Deserve It
The next second, Chatty could not bear it anymore and burst into tears.Chatty was in pain and terrified as she had never experienced this before.She hugged Nicole tightly and did not let go. Her tears streamed down her face, and she did not care that they were in a public place.Nicole also cried in fear, and her whole body was tense.However, Nicole did not dare to cry out loud. She patted Chatty’s back and comforted her in a gentle voice.“Chatty, don’t be scared. Mommy will take you to the hospital to see a doctor.”Nicole choked between sobs. Then, she stood up with Chatty in her arms and ran out.Everyone was shocked.Clayton endured the pain in his leg and limped out of the room with cold sweat on his back. When he looked down, he saw Nicole carrying Chatty and running out.Fischer was helpless and terrified, and Julie was furious and frightened.He could not care less anymore and asked in a trembling voice, “What happened?”The moment Julie looked up, she saw Clayto
