When Nicole heard this, she nodded and smiled. “That’s good.”
If Clayton said that he would control his emotions, then he could definitely control them.
Originally, it was not a big deal, so there was no need to make anyone feel uncomfortable.
It was just that Nicole did not mind people knowing about their current relationship, but it was not to the point where she would announce it to the whole world.
The two of them looked at each other and smiled. This matter passed.
The next second, Nicole’s phone rang. It was Logan.
She immediately picked it up. “Logan?”
Logan asked anxiously. “President, where have you been? I can’t see you when I turn around.”
Nicole pursed her lips. It was probably because there were too many people just now and they were scattered.
”I’m here at the warehouse that we just passed by just now Nicole hung up and raised her head to see Clayton looking at her seriously.
“Logan is not just in charge of your daily work, huh?” Nicole looked at Clayton’s serious face and smiled.
“Of course! He gets the salary and bonus of three staff. Grant specially hired him from Stanford.”
Clayton laughed and stroked his eyebrows. No wonder Logan was so thorough from Nicole’s work to daily life. Logan was not like a colleague and more like her butler.
Nicole focused her gaze and suddenly noticed a figure not far away.
That person was sneaky like he was looking for something.
Nicole’s nerves subconsciously became tense. Her intuition told her that this sneaky person was not any of the reporters they invited today.
Clayton also sensed that the person was suspicious. He paused and patted her arm.
“Don’t worry. I’ll go over and take a look.” Nicole nodded.
Logan was coming over soon, so Clayton was not worried about leaving Nicole here alone.
Clayton stood up. His handsome features were gentle and charming. He quickly left the place. His back figure was straight.
Nicole could not see him after he went down the steps. After thinking about it, her heart was beating chaotically. She simply could not sit still, so she stood up.
Her heels were painful, so she simply took off her shoes, stepped on her heels to take a few steps, and looked forward.
There was no one in sight. Nicole’s face changed slightly.
Clayton clearly just went over, so it was impossible that he would disappear so quickly.
Nicole walked just a few steps and suddenly felt a chill down her spine. She subconsciously turned around and saw the sneaky man standing behind her, looking at her.
His eyes were dark like a ghost.
His face was pale, and he was slightly chubby.
Nicole paused and stared at him. “Are you the reporter who started the rumor?”
The other party laughed and twitched the corners of his mouth.
“Yes, Ms. Stanton.”
His voice was gruff. In the next second, he raised his hand with a dagger that refracted the light.
Nicole’s face sank. Just as she was about to react, she suddenly heard Logan shout, “President, be careful!”
Logan was just a dozen meters away. It took less than ten seconds for him to run over.
However, in just ten seconds, the reporter’s dagger suddenly turned in a direction.
The man’s huge body instantly blocked Nicole.
Immediately after, the reporter strangled Nicole and placed the dagger on her slender and delicate neck.
Logan’s face instantly turned white with fear. “Let go of her!”
The reporter laughed. “I heard that you guys have been looking for me all this time, so here I am!”
The reporter’s expression was somewhat twisted and hysterical.
Nicole was strangled by him for a moment, but she quickly adapted to it.
She estimated that the chances of her elbowing his gut
and escaping on her own were sixty to seventy percent.
However, he had a dagger in his hand that would go out of control, so the chances of her being injured in the process were also sixty to seventy percent.
