This question stunned Nicole a little. “Logan’s already married.”
Nicole remembered that Logan even took a wedding leave before this.
Clayton laughed.
“What a pity, I was planning to introduce a girlfriend to him.”
Nicole frowned. “How come I didn’t hear you mention it before?”
“I forgot. Must’ve been too busy…”
Nicole walked to the door. “I’m leaving now. Why don’t you go downstairs too?”
“Wait.”
Clayton took a flower from the vase in the living room and walked over. Nicole’s heart skipped a beat.
The delicate little Swiss lily was brought in front of her eyes.
“I hope this last gift today will make you forget the unhappiness from what you saw at the airport earlier.”
The pair of shoes was probably at the museum by now. The curator even called earlier to thank them and repeatedIy praised their generosity.
Nicole smiled and took the flower. “Thank you.”
Of all the gifts, this flower was the most normal one.
Clayton smiled and squatted down to put on her shoes.
Nicole really could not resist his enthusiasm. However, Clayton did it very casually like it was not at all worth mentioning.
After Clayton helped Nicole to put on her shoes, he stood up and looked at her with a smile. His warm eyes were overflowing with light.
“Nicole, I have a question.” Nicole looked at him.
“When will I be able to kiss you?”
Nicole’s face was reflected in Clayton’s eyes. Whenever Clayton looked at Nicole’s stunning features, he had to work very hard to suppress the urge to kiss her.
That was because he was afraid that she would not be able to accept it, that his abruptness would scare her.
When he was squatting down just now to help her put on her shoes, they looked like a husband who was sending his wife out the door.
The desire within his heart grew even stronger. Thus, Clayton asked what was in his heart.
Nicole was stunned by his straightforward question. She blinked and blushed.
For a while, there was only silence.
Clayton did not want to let her go like that. He stepped forward and approached her. Her shadow reflected in his eyes that looked so tender.
Nicole smelled his warm and calming scent, which put her in a momentary trance. However, she quickly came back to her senses and reached out to push him a little.
“Then you can wait for me to ask…” Nicole said quickly.
Clayton was puzzled as he smiled at her. “Ask who?”
“My father!”
Clayton’s face stiffened. Before he could say something, Nicole turned and ran out decisively.
She was trying to scare him.
If Nicole really asked Floyd, Floyd would probably take his fishing rod to beat Clayton up.
Clayton lowered his head and laughed. Suddenly, the phone in his pocket rang. His smile instantly faded when he took it out and saw the caller ID.
He picked it up. “Uncle Isaac?”
Isaac Sloan’s devilish voice came through, “I’m in Mediania. Shall we meet up, Nephew?”
Clayton’s eyes sank. The depths of his pupils seemed to have a layer of frost that was piercing cold.
“Sure.”
“By the way, I’ve met the Ms. Stanton that you like so much. You have a pretty good eye, huh? She’s pretty and comes from an affluent family. It’s certainly not easy for you to get associated with them, huh?”
Clayton’s face turned cold as he hung up the phone.
He was not in the mood to talk nonsense with Isaac. There was also not much affection between them to speak of.
Stanton Corporation.
Grant held an emergency meeting for the top management because of a major accident in one of their projects.
When Nicole arrived, Grant had already talked to two supervisors for half an hour.
The two supervisors’ faces were as pale as paper. They were also trembling. It looked like the conversation was very frightening.
Grant looked up expressionlessly. “This is the company’s decision. You’re both fired. Go to HR to settle the procedures and leave with dignity.”
