There was a faint smile in the man’s eyes.Mitchell felt that Clayton was as sly as a fox. Clayton could see through everything but did not expose it.Eric was certainly at a loss.Mitchell felt sorry for his boss.He smiled awkwardly and said, “Since there’s nothing else, I’ll get going.”Clayton raised his eyebrows.“Sure. I can’t walk too much, so I won’t send you off. By the way, if you want to send me a gift next time, remember to send it to my office!”Mitchell was speechless and fled in despair.Anyway, that gift was already off his hands.After Mitchell left, Nicole came out of Grant’s office.She opened the door happily and looked at the man inside with a smile.“Let’s go?”Clayton raised his eyebrows. “You managed to ask for some time off?”Nicole nodded.She asked for some time off and left as soon as she did. If Grant had not appreciated her hard work during this time, he would never let her go on vacation.Clayton beckoned to her. “Come over and see if you l

Clayton pursed his lips. “Mr. Churchill, I’d like to thank you for taking care of Nicole during this time. I heard that the project went well?”Euan paused and changed the subject.“Yes, indeed. The government has created some policies to support the reconstruction of the area after the earthquake, so it went smoother than expected. Now, the project has started to make a profit...”They had a pleasant meal.In the end, Clayton was not bothered to listen to Euan’s drunken talk, so he stood up and went to the window to get some fresh air.Nicole sat there patiently and looked at Euan with a smile.Euan was a chatterbox and could talk with any woman with ease.In the end, Euan glanced at Clayton and looked away.He leaned forward cautiously and said, “Ms. Stanton, I heard gossip two days ago. Do you want to know what it is?”“Nope.”“I’ll tell you anyway. A buddy of mine saw Eric Ferguson in the hospital two days ago. Do you know what he was doing? He was donating blood!”Euan

Levi, as the eldest kid, set an example for his younger siblings to study hard.Thus, he consciously started to tutor Chatty and Fischer.Floyd was satisfied to see this.By the end of the study session, Chatty did not need to be coaxed to sleep. She fell asleep as soon as her head touched the pillow.......Selena stayed in the hospital for a few days and was able to walk around a little.She just could not run, jump or do any strenuous activities.The caregiver took care of her well, and her complexion was rosy again.Selena called Eric, but no one answered.She could see that Eric would not answer her calls.Selena was not disappointed either.She called Mitchell, who was only free to show up at the hospital in the afternoon.“Ms. Nelson, have you figured out what you want as compensation?”They did not mind paying for her medical expenses.Selena did not talk about compensation, which made Mitchell worry that she would extort Eric and cause trouble.Selena nodded.S

Selena always had a good memory, so she recognized the drunk girl from that day.She knew that the girl got drunk on purpose too.Nicole was just about to go up to say hello to Selena with her skirt in hand when she suddenly saw a drunken man appearing behind Selena.The man violently twisted Selena’s shoulder and slapped Selena without saying a word.Nicole’s face turned pale.“Watch out...”She watched as Selena got beaten and fell toward the stairs like a piece of paper.Nicole was startled and wanted to reach out to catch Selena, who was falling, but her high heels got stuck on the stairs.She did not have time to think about it, but at the critical moment, she still stretched out her hand.Selena did not have the strength to hold on to the railing next to her and fell straight down the stairs.As soon as Nicole touched Selena’s shoulder, she felt a huge impact, so she fell back involuntarily.In such a sudden situation without any preparation, Nicole could not bear the

Nicole nodded and did not say much. Then, she went out hand in hand with Clayton.“What boss? You know her?”Nicole nodded and told him what had happened when she first arrived.Clayton held her hand tightly and anxiously.“I should’ve come with you.”“You didn’t know this would happen. Besides, I’m fine.”Nicole did not care.Clayton was still very apologetic. “I should at least be by your side.”“It doesn’t matter. I can’t stick to you all the time. Besides, I came out to have fun, and you have important business. I know how to prioritize.”Clayton fell silent and still felt sad.Nicole smiled and leaned her head on his shoulder.“You love me so much that you can’t leave me for a moment, huh?”She smelled faintly of alcohol, and her voice was soft.Clayton felt like someone brushed the tip of his heart with a feather, which made him itch.He smiled calmly and inadvertently saw a familiar car.He paused for a few seconds before he reached out to stroke her hair.“Yeah.
