Read Chapter 1516 of The Divorced Billionaire Heiress-By I Wanna Eat Meat
Angie flaunted how her love for Eric was more solid than gold before looking at the silent Mitchell behind her.
“Mitchell, please ask Eric to pick me up. I’m tired…”
Mitchell expressionless retreated to the side to make a phone call.
Nicole and Clayton exchanged a glance. Just then, Yvette came over to say hello and pulled Nicole away.
Nicole was still a little worried about Clayton, who was still standing there.
Yvette said, “Are you afraid she’ll eat him up? That woman’s target isn’t Clayton.”
That was true.
Nicole sighed in relief.
Yvette spoke with a smile.
“Those people were originally inquiring about the identity of Eric’s fiancée. After this, no one will inquire again. Hahaha…”
Nicole also curled her lips. For some reason, she found it quite funny.
It was such a sensitive word, but Angie said it like she was selling toys.
Clayton said a few words and wanted to leave, but Angie suddenly stopped him.
“Mr. Sloan, keep an eye on Nicole. Don’t let her come out and cause trouble when I’m engaged!”
Clayton frowned slightly. “Of course. I wish you a happy engagement. ”
Angie smiled. “Mr. Sloan, don’t you want to know how I proceeded so smoothly?”
Without waiting for him to refuse, she spoke up.
“ I chopped off one of Charles’ s legs. Eric actually got scared and agreed to the engagement obediently. I plan to expand part of our power in East Asia over here, so Eric won’ t easily break off the marriage. He’ll be dead set on me! Do you think my method is good?”
Clayton was silent for more than half a minute and did not have any reaction.
In the end, he let out a light laugh. “It’s a good idea.”
Angie smiled in satisfaction upon seeing his approval.
“I like talking with smart people like you. When you get married to Nicole, I’ll definitely send you a big gift.”
Clayton did not say anything else and turned around to search for Nicole’s figure.
That stupid woman. Angie was basically sold out by Eric, yet she was still helping him to count money.
How could Clayton believe that such a woman would pose a threat to Eric?
Nicole said goodbye to Yvette and went outside to get a breather. It felt much better than the room inside, which was mixed with a mess of perfume fragrances.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she went out, she saw a tall shadow standing at the door.
The man stood there, and his gaze was blazing as he saw her too.
His voice was a little raspy. “Nicole…”
He did not manage to hide the cold frown between his eyes.
Nicole paused and nodded as if nothing happened,
intending to go around him.
Eric did not make any other move and just said one sentence.
“Tell Clayton not to have any ideas about Angie. Otherwise, I’ll kill him as well.”
There was a dense chill in those words.
Nicole did not understand and wanted to ask for clarification, but Eric had already pushed the door open and walked in.
She did not go after him. Not long after, Clayton came out.
He held her coat, and his eyes were warm. “Let’s go. It’s a little cold outside…”
Nicole nodded and got into the car. When she looked sideways at him, he also happened to look at her.
He seemed to catch on and pursed his lips. “Do you have something to say?”
Nicole nodded.
“You didn’t make any deals with Angie, right?”
The meaning in Eric’s words just now clearly meant that he knew that Clayton and Angie had a private connection.
However, why did they have a connection?
Nicole did not understand. It was like a fog densely shrouded her vision so that she could not see anything.
She did not want to speculate or doubt Clayton, so she asked straightforwardly.
Clayton paused for a moment. His gaze darkened in an instant.
“No.”
Nicole pursed her lips. She pulled her hand out of Clayton’s, and her expression turned glum.
She clearly saw a trace of nervousness across Clayton’s eyes.
He was lying.
