Chapter 468 Interest First
Once Clayton’s words fell, the atmosphere between the two of them instantly became silent.
The silence entwined with the light breeze, Nicole paused in her footsteps and looked at him quietly Her
eyes were slightly cold.
Clayton waited for a few seconds and did not get an answer, so he naturally did not let the situation
become awkward.
He chuckled and said, “You didn’t mishear me, and I won’t take back my words.”
His gaze was serious and frank. His tone was relaxed. ( “As I said before, I’m very happy for you t o take
me as your new love to deal with M r. Ferguson and the others. It’s not out of courtesy, Ms. Stanton.

you.”
1 Clayton held a faint smile in his eyes that seemed to reflect the millions of stars in the galaxy Nicole’s
heart trembled slightly, but she quickly regained her composure. She smiled courteously.
“Mr. Sloan, we’re both business people, so don’t let personal matters affect our partnership…” ‘Don’t
cancel our cooperation if I reject you! I’m out to earn big bucks!’ Clayton could not help but laugh with
some helplessness in his eyes.
“Of course. Interests come first.” Nicole agreed with this point of view.” Interest first!” The two of them
reached a consensus, and the pressure Nicole felt dissipated. SC In one night, she had friend-zoned two
men, but she did not feel good about it.
