Read Chapter 1010 of The Divorced Billionaire Heiress-By I Wanna Eat Meat
Nicole saw that Clayton was not angry and sighed in relief. “I already promised you. Of course, I won’t suddenly change my mind.“
She secretly glanced around. There was no one, so she took Clayton ‘s hand.
“Besides, who here is more suitable than you?“ Nicole’s face blushed as she spoke.
Fortunately, the lighting was dim, so no one could see it clearly.
Clayton smiled as his eyes became even gentler.
Nicole’s change towards him grew little by little. From being unfamiliar to being closer and affectionate. Clayton felt all of it.
She seemed to be getting closer to his world.
This feeling was very subtle, and Clayton wondered if it was a good or bad thing.
When Floyd saw Nicole and Clayton come in arm-in- arm, the expression on his face immediately became wonderful.
To others, Clayton was just a business partner to Stanton Corporation.
In reality, Floyd knew everything between them. Floyd did not stop them, nor did he agree to it.
He wanted to let their relationship fall through on its own.
However, recently, there was no hint of it falling through.
An old friend on the side who came over to say hello followed Floyd’s line of sight and smiled meaningfully.
“A girl will be married off when she’s of age. Look how well-matched Clayton and Nicole are. They are an ideal couple. The next wedding in the Stanton family will be Nicole’s, right?”
Floyd’s heart sank to the bottom.
“I still have three sons. Lil N will be the last. There’s no hurry!”
The friend said, “You’re so old-fashioned!”
Which family still insisted on their children getting married according to age?
If Clayton’s family background was simpler and he did not have a son… If his family situation was more regular, then Floyd would have readily agreed.
After all, it would be like picking him out among the masses.
Unfortunately…
Floyd sighed and was about to turn away, not wanting to look any longer. Then, he heard a cold voice calling him.
“Chairman Stanton…”
Floyd turned around. It was Eric.
He frowned slightly. “Mr. Ferguson, welcome to the party. Please enjoy yourself and don’t stand on ceremony.”
It was naturally not unusual to see Eric at an event like this.
After all, Old Master Ferguson had now lost his power, so invitations for business parties like this would not be handed to him alone.
Eric’s eyes were slightly sunken. He suppressed the emotions inside and stepped forward.
“Chairman Stanton, I need to talk to you.“ Floyd paused for a few seconds, sizing him up.
He knew exactly what Eric had in mind besides coming here to attend the business party.
However, Nicole was sweetly dating Clayton now and had no time to pay attention to him.
Floyd felt that Eric probably thought about putting his efforts starting from Floyd.
However, it was fine. He was also curious what Eric would say.
“Sure. Let’s go inside.“ Floyd proposed.
Eric nodded.
When Keith caught up, he had already lost sight of Eric.
In the lounge.
Floyd looked at the person in front of him in shock. ‘
Isaac Sloan?’
He did not know when and how Isaac came in. His name was not on the guest list.
Isaac nodded politely. “Congratulations, Chairman Stanton. It’s a happy event for the Stanton family and I really wanted to join in the fun, so I asked a friend to bring me along.”
He briefly explained the reason why he came over.
No matter how unhappy Floyd was inside, he could not shed the pretense of politeness at this time.
Floyd smiled. “Welcome, Mr. Sloan. It’s just an engagement. It’s not a big celebration, so not many people were invited. I hope you’ll forgive me.”
After they sat down, Floyd sized up Isaac and Eric, speculating on their motive
