Chapter 1720 You Really Deserve a Beating
Nicole could tell from Floyd’s words that Floyd was actually not dissatisfied with Clayton. He was just unable to accept this unexpected pregnancy.
In the end, Floyd was just afraid that his daughter would be aggrieved.
Nicole’s heart was warm. She held Floyd’s arm and smiled.
“Dad, he doesn’t dare to. This is just an accident. When we came to the hospital, he even thought that I didn’t want the baby. On the way here, he looked so sad, but he didn’t say anything. He respects me fully. Since we’ll get married sooner or later anyway, why not agree to it?”
Floyd raised his eyebrows. His eyes were full of doubt.
“Really?”
Nicole nodded. Floyd sighed. “But I still think that you’re too good for him and he got a huge deal!”
Nicole said, “Dad, Clayton doesn’t have any relatives anymore. Everything is decided by our family. I listen to you so much, so you shouldn’t scare him so easily. He’s already so pitiful…”
Floyd froze for a moment and suddenly understood what Nicole meant.
The two of them fell silent.
Indeed. Although Clayton was rich and very capable, no one in the Sloan family recognized his existence.
For Nicole’s sake, Clayton had already offended the entire Sloan family, so he did not have anyone to back him up.
If the Stanton family also bullied him, then Clayton must be very pitiful.
Clayton stayed in Mediania for Nicole and almost broke off all his previous contacts in Liberty. Nicole could not think of anyone else who loved her more than he did.
Floyd’s expression eased slightly.
“Well, since you‘ve decided, I have no opinion on this. But your wedding should be pushed up right away. I’ll get Mr. Anderson to arrange these things for you.”
Nicole smiled and nodded. “Okay! Thanks, Dad!”
Floyd looked at her dotingly and really could not do anything about her.
Although Floyd preferred to let Nicole live a simple and easy life, since she had chosen this path herself, it was better to go all the way.
If this marriage did not work, Nicole could always come back to the Stanton family anyway.
Outside.
Clayton stood there with a glum face and was motionless. His eyes seemed to be boring a hole through the door.
He did not expect Floyd’s reaction to this matter to be so drastic. Clayton should have thought about it sooner.
Clayton had stolen Floyd’s baby daughter and even got her pregnant before he proposed. He had nothing prepared, so how could Floyd be happy about this?
However, Clayton was more worried about Nicole getting reprimanded because of him.
If he had known earlier, he would have made enough preparations before coming over.
On the side, Kai looked at Clayton’s listless face and smiled wantonly.
However, Kai did not look as friendly as he was back then. He looked at Clayton with a somewhat cold gaze.
Kai sat on the side. His gaze was scattered. “Sit down, Mr. Sloan. It’s pointless for you to stand there. The last person my father wants to see now is you.”
Clayton’s face was tense. His eyes were a bit dark, and his voice was low and hoarse as he asked Kai. He seemed quite flustered.
“Was I too much?”
The good image Clayton had built during this period was just ruined. Kai let out a reckless laugh and gave him a sidelong glance.
“You’re not too much. You just deserve a beating. No man who respects women will get her pregnant before marriage. You brought those tricks in Liberty here and didn’t think about the consequences? Or do you think that our family will compromise just because she’s pregnant? Do you think that we’ll scramble to marry our baby sister to you?”
Kai’s tone carried a hint of displeasure and even annoyance.
