Chapter 1156 Who’s a Disgrace?
Nicole slowly followed at the back and watched as Hayley and her friends chose the most remote private room, hesitating as they stood in front of the door.Yvette smiled meaningfully from behind.Nicole was puzzled and felt that something was off.Suddenly, Hayley and her friends knocked on the door and went inside, then began to hop like rabbits.The moment the door was opened, the sound inside flooded out. It turned out that it was not quiet inside. This private room just had the best soundproofing.Then, a man’s angry yelling came from inside.“Hayley, have you gone crazy?”Nicole and Yvette looked at each other. They could both hear that this voice did not belong to the group of teenagers.The people in the private room surprisingly knew who Hayley was. Subsequently, Hayley shouted. “How can you come but I can’t?!”“Watch yourself! What a disgrace!”Nicole went to the door and heard the voice. It was Hayley’s father, the President of Golden Sea Corporation.She could h
Chapter 1157 Want To See You Most
Clayton’s trip could be considered a success.Their research and development would not stop and would only improve.Clayton could breathe a sigh of relief for the time being.His home base was in Liberty. Clayton was still a legendary figure on Wall Street. Nicole thought that Clayton would return to Liberty after this project was finalized, but he came to Mediania.These two days, the stock market was in turmoil on Wall Street. Rumor has it that Clayton Sloan was about to go bankrupt, and several of his properties in Liberty had been auctioned off.However, there was suddenly no movement today.This news seemed to have been deliberately suppressed and inexplicably disappeared.Nicole had a last-minute important meeting, so she could not go to the airport to pick Clayton up, but she called ahead to inform Clayton.After the meeting was over, Nicole saw the time and thought that Clayton must have just gotten off the plane, but it would be too late for her to go over.Seeing her
Chapter 1158 No Need to Be Off-Site
Clayton looked down at his watch. His bodyguard was probably waiting outside by now.He had a gentle smile as he laughed.“Everyone, the honor brought by this project belongs to each and every one of the researchers, not to me. This is an advancement that belongs to all of humanity and isn’t my personal pot of gold. Although I grew up in Liberty, I’m still Medianian. I’ve also specially sent my son for schooling in Mediania. I’m sure that everyone will be proud of our breakthrough…”Clayton smiled flawlessly without a trace of impatience.Although these words did not explicitly favor one side, one could read between the lines that Clayton loved Mediania.The reporters also let out a sigh of relief. The situation did not seem so intense anymore.At this time, Clayton’s bodyguards rushed over and quickly opened up a path for Clayton, blocking out the reporters.Clayton took the opportunity to leave quickly.This was the end of the live broadcast.Nicole’s gaze was calm, and her
Chapter 1159 The Decision Is Yours
Nicole’s body stiffened slightly. Although it was indeed hard on Clayton, who would say it so frankly?She curled her lips and said, “Then you should take a good rest for a few days. Give yourself a vacation?”Clayton smiled warmly. He did not have the slightest intention of letting go of her.“I’m afraid I can’t. There’s still a tough battle coming up.”Nicole looked at him in disbelief.A trace of imperceptible ruthlessness crossed Clayton’s eyes.“The Sloan family sustained too much of a loss. I’m afraid that Isaac won’t be able to keep his position as CEO!”Nicole’s eyes widened. How could such big news be kept hidden without a hint of leakage?“It’s you?”Clayton laughed. “He’s the one who set me up and wanted to short my stocks. From an outsider’s perspective, I was manipulating the stock market in order to run away, but the money went to Isaac.”“So, he got a taste of shorting and bet on the whole Sloan Corporation?”Nicole asked.Clayton gave Nicole an appreciative
Chapter 1160 Hold Hands
When Nicole finished, she felt relaxed as if she had put down a burden.Anyway, she was happy with Clayton, and they could not possibly be in the same relationship status forever.Even if they get married, Nicole felt that it was not so bad. Although Nicole was previously very against marriage, if her partner was Clayton, she could consider it.When Clayton saw her hesitation earlier, Clayton’s nervous heart was panicking.However, when he heard her answer, it was as if the sunlight pierced through the thick dark clouds and shone on him alone.Having his feelings acknowledged, being favored, being liked, and having reciprocated love was such a bright and pure feeling.Clayton would never forget this feeling at this moment.Nicole suddenly smiled, picked up her phone, and looked at him with some hesitation.“Do you want to meet them now? I’ll call my dad and get him to catch a few nice fish for lunch…”Clayton froze. His face was clearly tense. ‘It doesn’t have to be so soon…’
Chapter 1161 Third Wheel
Nicole and Clayton both went to a restaurant. Just as they sat down, the waiter came over.“Ms. Stanton, Mr. Stanton is in his private room and invited the two of you to dine together.”Nicole was stunned and blinked. “Who?”Which Mr. Stanton?Across the table, Clayton also stiffened slightly. There was a rare look of nervousness on his face.“Mr. Grant Stanton.”Nicole silently glanced at Clayton.What a coincidence!The private room that Grant was in had the best view here. One could see the situation outside at a glance, but the people outside could not peek inside.When Nicole and Clayton entered hand in hand, Grant immediately asked someone to invite them over.Aida, who was beside Grant, laughed helplessly. “Why are you like this? Nicole is just having a meal with her friend…”Grant’s face was reserved, and his tone was icy cold.“Since we met, it’s good to eat together. We haven’t started eating anyway.”“You’re clearly just jealous that someone stole your sister, r
Chapter 1162 The Easygoing Brother-In-Law
Grant looked at Clayton playfully.Aida saw that the corners of Nicole’s lips twitched.Both women could hear that something was wrong with Grant, but no one dared to say anything.Clayton met Grant’s gaze and was not the least bit flustered. “There may be difficulties, but everything can be solved. The person I like is here, and nothing is more important than her.”Clayton’s frankness made Grant’s smile stiffen slightly.Aida also faintly froze and subconsciously looked at Nicole.Nicole was as direct as usual and only lowered her head to eat quietly.No one could pick a fault with Clayton’s reason.Grant also seemed to have realized the delicate relationship between them and did not continue to probe the root of the matter.He just faintly swept a glance at Nicole and withdrew his gaze.Grant smiled lightly, “Let’s eat.”Nicole secretly sighed in relief.The meal looked easy and relaxed, but Grant and Clayton were talking back and forth, and they could not stay away from
Chapter 1163 Undress
Clayton insisted on being Nicole’s driver, so the real driver could only sit in the back.This scene was extremely strange.The driver did not understand why Clayton had to steal his job.He was a driver, yet he was sitting in the seat where the boss can only sit.It was really like sitting on pins and needles.Nicole subconsciously glanced at Clayton.Clayton could only helplessly be the driver.Had he known that the driver would stay, he would not have insisted on driving since he could not even hold her hand now.When they arrived at the entrance of Falcon Entertainment, Clayton parked the car, and Nicole got off.The two said goodbye to each other. Nicole then turned around and walked into the lobby.Dominic already had someone meet her at the door. Once Nicole entered, she went straight upstairs.Watching her come in, Dominic smiled and hung up the phone.“Just in time, we can see Harvey’s latest results. Let’s go!”Dominic led her out.Nicole did not understand. “Re
