Chapter 1696 She fell for It Nicole’s lips curled up, but she did not take Clayton’s words to heart.
However, Nicole did feel a lot better when Clayton was around,
Suddenly, Clayton’s phone rang. He frowned and looked at it before turning to Nicole.
“Wait for me while I take a call?”
Nicole nodded.
Clayton smiled and turned around, answering the call as he walked away. “Hello?”
After ten minutes.
Out of nowhere, Nicole saw a somewhat familiar person hurrying out from one side.
Even if Nicole did not want to see him, she already spotted him.
Nicole narrowed her eyes, and the other party came up to her. “Hi, Ms. Stanton. Do you still remember me?”
Nicole was not in the mood and gave him a perfunctory smile.
“Xander, why are you here?”.
Back then, Xander was promoted because he looked a bit like Eric, but he was kicked out because he harassed the actress, Yuliana, while they were filming the variety show.
Since then, Nicole rarely heard of Xander in the entertainment industry.
However, she was not interested in him, ‘especially when she saw how much Xander’s face resembled Eric’s.
Nicole was not at all calm.
She just wanted to pretend not to see him.
However, how could Xander let go of this rare opportunity?
In the past, Xander had a taste of what it was like to be supported. Now, there was no one to hold him up, and he had to beg hard just to be an extra in a film. He was terrified of being replaced, and he was mocked even when he sang,
Xander had experienced a lot in the past. If he could be treated differently by Nicole, maybe he would be like Harvey and become a first-rate actor.
He smiled and took a few steps forward, but he saw Nicole subconsciously take a few steps back, clearly trying to keep her distance from him.
Xander froze slightly.
He stood there and honestly answered the question she thoughtlessly asked.
“Ms Stanton. I attended a film festival abroad and came back after the event. I didn’t expect m y film to be quite popular abroad.”
Nicole nodded. “Okay, off you go then.”
Xander froze for a moment and spoke with a smile.
“Ms. Stanton, do you know that there are a lot of people outside?”
Nicole looked at him in confusion.
Xander touched his head in embarrassment.
“My agent bought a lot of fans to pick me up outside in order to make headlines. Ms. Stanton, since you’re here, it’ll be easy for scandals to spread about us…”
Nicole looked at him speechlessly. “So?”
She really did not expect such an accident to occur.
Nicole did not know where Clayton went either. Maybe he was picking up his friend..
If she had known earlier, she would not have waited here.
If the media saw her and Xander together, who knew what kind of nonsense they would write?
Xander paused. “Why don’t you come with me through the back door?”
Nicole struggled for a second. Between waiting here for Eric and leaving first with Xander, she chose the latter without hesitation.
She was just about to call Clayton to inform him when Xander suddenly took her by the arm and headed out.
It sounded like a real emergency.
Nicole did not have time to think about it and immediately buried her head, following him out.
The moment she went out, she realized how stupid she was. She fell for his trap.
Xander’s fans were all waiting at the back door.
If he had left at the front door, he would be scolded by his fans for being fake.
It seemed like his manager was still very careful and let him go through the back door. The fans waited at the back door, creating a possibility that the fans did this out of their own initiative.
As soon as Nicole appeared, many fans and reporters came up.
“OMG! Wasn’t it just supposed to be Xander? Why is Nicole here too?” “Does Ms. Stanton really have eyes for Xander? Does she really see him as Mr. Ferguson’s replacement?”
“That’s impossible. Ms. Stanton must just be playing around. There are so many young idols who have been in rumors with her. Xander isn’t worth anything.”
