Clayton felt that something was wrong with Nicole in an instant. He took a deep breath. “Babe…”
Nicole interrupted him and looked at the driver in front.
“Pull over.”
The driver was Clayton’s. He hesitated, not knowing what to do.
There was clearly nothing wrong when they came here. How did it suddenly change?
When Nicole saw that the driver had no intention of stopping, she immediately tried to open the door. Clayton’s face changed, and he immediately stopped her hand.
“Nicole…”
There was anxiousness in his tone.
He looked at the driver. “Stop the car.”
The car slowly stopped at the side of the road, and Nicole got out without saying a word.
She did not know what she was angry about, but her heart was stuffy.
It was not because of Eric and Angie, but because Clayton was also involved in this matter.
Nicole never suspected him, but he hid it well.
Clayton naturally did not let Nicole leave like that and chased after her, standing in front of her.
“Wait, I’ll tell you everything.”
He was really scared. He was so scared that Nicole would look at him with such indifferent eyes.
It was like she did not know him.
He took a deep breath and could only tell her what he told Angie privately.
“I didn’t want to hurt anyone. I just hoped that Angie wouldn’t try anything with you, and I don’t want her to step on you to contact Eric, so I provided her with a few ideas for her to pester Eric.”
When Clayton saw Nicole standing there stoically, he was at a loss and panicked.
“Nicole, don’t give me the silent treatment. If you’re angry, you can hit me and scold me all you want.”
When such a gentle person said such humble words, it was indeed quite pitiful.
Nicole pursed her lips as her heart wavered.
If it was just that, there was indeed nothing to be angry about.
She looked at him with a deep gaze. “Do you know what your mistake was?”
“Yes.”
Clayton spoke firmly.
Nicole’s lips curled. “What is it then?”
Clayton hesitated for a few seconds before speaking. “I should’ve told you from the beginning…”
Nicole smiled. “I’m not interested in knowing that. Your biggest mistake was that you lied to me when I asked you just now.”
“Babe, I was wrong. I won’t dare to do it again, I promise!”
Clayton looked at her with sincere eyes. The gentleness in his eyes looked like he wanted to take her in.
Nicole was really powerless against that gaze. He was the best at using this trick against her.
When Clayton saw her attitude soften, he stepped forward and wrapped his arms around her. His actions were extremely gentle.
“Nicole, I did it completely out of jealousy. I admit my selfishness, but if I made you upset because of this matter, I’m sorry.”
His tone was low and raspy, like a wisp of fog in the darkness.
Nicole paused and wrapped her arms around his waist, sighing.
“Forget it. I’ll forgive you this time.”
Clayton put some force in his hands and held her tightly. His warmth instantly enveloped her. Nicole smiled.
“Well, let’s go back?”
Clayton nodded, and his gaze darkened. “To the apartment?”
She knew at a glance what he was up to.
Nicole chuckled. “To the mansion! My dad is waiting for me to have dinner.”
She waved her phone in front of him to show that she was not lying.
The light in Clayton ‘s eyes dimmed. He sighed and was unwilling but compelled to let go.
“ If only Uncle Floyd liked me as much as he likes Michael. That way, I could live in your house.”
There were surprisingly a few hints of coquettishness in those words.
Nicole smiled. “Then you have to work hard.”
Clayton sent her back to the mansion and watched her go in before he slowly sighed in relief.
He almost lost her.
