Before Clayton could make a sound, another assistant said, “Ms. Stanton is very busy!”
“Even if she’s busy, it doesn’t mean that she won’t surprise Mr. Sloan. Not to mention, Mr. Sloan has returned all the shares of the Sloan Corporation to Ms. Stanton and he’s just dealing with those company matters in name only. It’s evident how much Mr. Sloan likes her!”
“Ms. Stanton still doesn’t know about this, so don’t blurt it out and ruin Mr. Sloan’s plan. Right, President?”
Clayton smiled and looked at the watch on his wrist.
“Right, but she’ll know sooner or later since there’s nothing to hide. It’s late, so you guys should head back. I’ll…”
Before Clayton could finish his sentence, the assistant in the back stretched out his hand in shock to point forward.
“That… Isn’t that Ms. Stanton?”
Clayton faintly froze. His eyes instantly lit up, but in the next second, his smile faded.
His eyes narrowed slightly and sank coldly.
The assistant at the back went to take a closer look. “Oh, I was mistaken. That’s not Ms. Stanton…”
The two assistants noticed that Clayton’s mood seemed off. They looked at each other and did not speak again.
Clayton wanted to walk past that woman and leave straight away.
However, Angie spoke before Clayton could leave.
“Mr. Sloan, are you very disappointed that I’m not Ms. Stanton?”
Clayton did not make a sound. His eyes were cold, sunken, and still, as he strode away.
Angie’s eyes darkened. She instantly lifted her spirits to catch up with him again.
“Mr. Sloan, are you really not planning to cooperate with me? The Stanton family won’t like you no matter how much you sacrifice for Ms. Stanton.
They won’t support your relationship with Ms. Stanton, and Eric won’t stand by and watch you two get married. Didn’t you ever think about marrying her?”
Clayton paused in his footsteps. His eyes were cold.
Angie smiled. “As long as we cooperate, you won’t need to worry about anything else when you’re with Ms. Stanton. I can also achieve my heart’s
desire. It’s a win-win situation that’s harmless, so why do you want to refuse?”
The two assistants behind Clayton both felt that this woman who looked like Nicole was not simple.
Once they heard their conversation, the assistants did not even dare to continue listening.
Clayton paused and looked at the assistants behind him. “You guys can go back.”
“Yes, Mr. Sloan.” “Goodbye, Mr. Sloan.”
Angie raised her eyebrows. “Shall we go for a drink?”
Clayton’s face remained expressionless. “I have nothing to say to you, and I won’t be used by you.”
“Are you that confident that Ms. Stanton will choose you in the end? As long as Eric is still around, you both can never have a future.”
Angie’s voice lingered in Clayton ‘s ears and struck his heart like a siren call.
They were both clear about this.
Eric’s feelings for Nicole had long become immeasurable.
The reason Eric let Clayton and Nicole become closer was only because Eric was just waiting for problems to arise between them. When Nicole got tired of Clayton, they would naturally break up.
By that time, Eric would then reenter Nicole’s life in a dignified manner.
Thus, Clayton was extremely sincere and put a lot of effort into this relationship. Clayton believed that he would not give Eric any opportunity to make a comeback with Nicole.
Clayton stood there. His gentle face looked stern.
There was a coldness in his eyes that was hard to conceal.
“So what? What do you want me to do for you? Help you deal with Eric? Or help you deal with Nicole? Sorry, but I don’t think that I can go against these two people, and I’m not willing to break this balance because of you. Ms. Angie, I hope that you’ll know your place.”
