Chapter 1717 Good News
If Clayton did not propose, how would they get married?
If they did not get married, what would happen with the procedures after their child was born?
For the first time, Clayton felt that although cumbersome, these formalities in Mediania were quite perfect!
It was much better than in Liberty, where children could be registered without propei procedures
Clayton wanted to get Nicole’s approval before he had the courage to go in and face Floyd‘s
wrath
Nicole knew what Clayton was thinking about and laughed. “As long as my father agrees, I won’t have any problem with it.”
She threw the problem back to Clayton.
Clayton helplessly held his forehead. This little witty devil was deliberately making things difficult for him at such a critical moment.
Nicole must have seen through Clayton’s dilemma at this time.
While the two of them were hesitating at the door, Kai’s nonchalant voice rang out not far away from them. “What are you two doing at the door? Did you do something wrong?”
The two of them were startled.
Clayton smiled faintly and nodded modestly. “Hey, Kai…”
Kai smiled and patted Clayton’s shoulder, looking like a big brother.
“Brother-in-law!”
The corners of Nicole’s lips twitched. When she looked at these two men, she wondered when they had such a good relationship.
It felt a little weird too.
Kai rolled his eyes at Nicole. “If you’re so free to hang out here, why don’t you have time to go t o work? You better watch out! Otherwise, I’ll deduct your salary!”
Tsk! Kai was really a “good” brother!
Before Nicole had time to speak, Floyd heard Kai’s annoying voice from inside.
“Lil K, what nonsense are you spouting over there? Get your *ss in here!”
Kai answered and ran in obediently, then smiled at Floyd. “Dad, I came here to visit you in the middle of a very busy day. Did you have a good lunch?”
Director Sven, who was standing on the side, was amused and laughed. “Look at how filial your son is! I’ll head back first and come back to play chess with you this afternoon.”
Floyd smiled perfunctorily and waved his hand.
Kai said goodbye to Director Sven very politely
“Goodbye, Uncle Sven. You’ve lost weight lately. Why don’t you eat something good for lunch?”
“Sure.”
Nicole and Clayton stood at the door and greeted Director Sven, then went into the ward.
Floyd looked at Kai speechlessly with disdain. “You didn’t bankrupt my company, right?”
Kai said, “Look at how much faith you have in me! It’s such a large company, so how can I bankrupt it in just a few days? It’ll take some time…”
Floyd’s face was livid as he covered his chest.
“You little rascal!”
Nicole hurriedly stepped forward. “Don’t listen to his nonsense, Dad. He’s just a prop to sign documents. The real decision-making power is still in our hands…”
She was referring to herself and Grant.
Floyd then nodded in satisfaction and advised her in a serious tone.
“Don’t be careless. You should beware of Kai…”
Nicole stifled a laugh, but Clayton could not hold back at the side.
Kai looked at them speechlessly. “Dad, can you say that when I’m not around?”
This was too hurtful, right?
“It’s for you to hear!”
Floyd retorted.
Nicole tugged on Floyd‘s sleeve. “Dad, we have something to tell you!”
Floyd nodded seriously. He looked at Nicole, then at Clayton, and smiled.
“What is it?”
The impression Clayton had left on Floyd recently was not bad.
Clayton stepped forward and stood there looking so warm, handsome, and upright. His temperament was also extraordinary.
Kai smiled and looked like he was waiting for some drama to unfold. He felt like he came at the right time and that something big was about to happen,
Clayton looked at Nicole, then smiled as he spoke.
“Uncle Floyd, please forgive my presumptuous behavior. I’d like to formally propose to Nicole with your blessing…”
That remark made the ward fall into silence.
Floyd’s smile gradually stiffened and disappeared.
