Clayton pointed to something that appeared there a t some point. “You do! I moved one over earlier.” Clayton said very calmly and looked like he wanted to laugh.
This washing machine had been here for such a long time, but Nicole did not even notice it? Or did she not know what it was? Nicole was so surprised and made a few turns around the washing machine. She was really clueless.
She thought that this thing had always been placed here. Clayton laughed and pulled down his sleeves that were rolled up. “Alright. Your Highness, you can stop looking now.
If you keep looking at it, the sky will be dark soon. Then, let’s not go out and get straight to it?” Clayton looked at her meaningfully with deep affection in his eyes. Nicole instantly understood what he meant. She blushed slightly and glared at him.
“Get straight to what? Don’t talk nonsense.” Clayton looked at her with a smile and did not retort. “Okay, I’ll take you there?” Clayton said as he picked up the keys. Nicole said, “Don’t you have other things to do? I can go by myself.”
Clayton replied, “How can other things be as important as you?” Anyhow, Clayton did not want to stay separated from Nicole. Every extra minute with her was a bonus. The two people went out the door one after the other.
Clayton was really going to send her to the office. Although Nicole said that he did not need to send her, she felt so sweet like her heart was doused in honey. Nicole was an understanding person. If Clayton did anything that prioritized her first, Nicole would appreciate it.
In the car, Nicole was bored and told Clayton what Gerard had said earlier. Clayton said that he had known about it for a long time. Back then when Clayton went to Europe to handle the procedures, he had also sought out other networks and acquaintances.
Getting approved so quickly was within his expectations. However, seeing that Nicole was so excited, Clayton did not tell her this. They arrived at J&L Corporation. It was rare that Gerard would stand outside to wait for
Nicole. With their relationship, Gerard would at most wait inside the building. Sometimes, he even asked Nicole to go straight upstairs. This treatment was really unbelievable. Before they got out of the car, Clayton and Nicole saw Gerard. Clayton narrowed his eyes.
The corners of his lips still held a smile as he asked her. “Is Mr. Lichman always this polite?” Nicole raised her eyebrows. “I think he just took the wrong medication today.” Clayton did not say anything.
He unbuckled her seatbelt and handed her bag over. “ I’ll come and pick you up later? I’ll be done soon, then I’ll go buy some ingredients to cook later. Are you craving anything?” Originally, Nicole wanted to refuse, but seeing that Clayton had everything arranged, Nicole thought that it saved her the trouble of deciding.
“No, I’m fine with anything!” The word “anything” was the worst word to work with. Clayton laughed. “Alright then.” Nicole intended to get out of the car after that, but Clayton grabbed her left hand and looked at her with a deep gaze. “Did you forget something?” Nicole blinked. “What?” ‘Did I forget something?’ Nicole thought. Clayton sighed and stretched out his finger to stroke her lips.
Her lipstick smeared onto his fingertip. He smiled amorously and reminded her. “My goodbye kiss,” Clayton said. Nicole froze for a moment, then blushed slightly. Why did he start to demand more as their relationship progressed? The previous Clayton was the most easy-going. Nicole gritted her teeth and glared at him. “Don’t push it…” Clayton responded with a smile.“
I’m the best at pushing my luck!” He was unrelenting. Clayton held and caressed Nicole’ s soft and smooth palm. Nicole felt a little ticklish from it. This little action felt like he was urging her to hurry up.
