Chapter 1735 Did I Go That Far?Nicole asked Lil Michael from time to time with a smile what he was happy about. Michael thought
about the interesting things he encountered and told them about it. The whole family laughed together.
Clayton followed with a lukewarm smile and always felt like this boy was holding back something bad.
After eating, Lil Michael went upstairs to play with Tigger. Tigger’s chip had a very favorable impression
on Lil Michael, so they soon began to play together.
Nicole noticed Clayton’s lukewarm attitude toward Lil Michael. Although Clayton was usually slightly
harsh on Michael, he still loved Michael in his heart.
Lil Michael was now in his rebellious stage, so their relationship might not be smooth sailing. However,
Nicole still thought that Lil Michael had a great character.
When Nicole was Michael’s age, she felt like she could tear down the house at the slightest bit of
displeasure.
Therefore, when everyone was chatting, Nicole left on the pretext of going to the study to find a book.
Clayton naturally followed her.
Just as he approached, Nicole looked at him and smiled faintly.
“Mr. Sloan, can’t you be happier now that your son is back?”
Clayton pursed his lips. “Do I look unhappy?”
He really was a little upset because he felt like his son was too valued in the Stanton family.
Yes, Clayton loves Michael. After all, he had single-handedly raised this child.
However, Clayton did not want Michael to steal Nicole’s attention.Unknowingly, Clayton wanted her entire life to be his.
Nicole laughed and said clearly, “Of course.”
She turned the corner and went upstairs, glancing back at him.
“Michael only comes back once in a while, so don’t pull a long face. He’s so young, so it’ll only make
him feel uncomfortable. He’ll think that you don’t love him anymore. I don’t want our marriage to
traumatize a child.”
Clayton was certainly a qualified husband, but she also wanted him to be a qualified father.
It was not just for the child in her womb.
More importantly, it was for Lil Michael.
Clayton’s movements stiffened at those words.
He spoke only after a long time. “Did I go too far?”
If he did not go too far, Nicole would not have mentioned it so obviously.
Of course, Nicole liked Clayton’s favoritism, but that only applied for her as a woman, not when
compared to his children.
Nicole gave him a look and nodded.
Clayton fell silent.
It was not that he did not love Michael. How could he not love the child he raised?However, Lil Michael really loved to mess things up between him and Nicole. Clayton almost lost the
diamond ring during their wedding in Bali. When Clayton checked the surveillance footage, he saw that
the only person who came in contact with the ring was Michael.
Clayton could not help but overthink the situation.
Although the diamond ring was found, the excuse given at that time was that it was a little joke made
by the best man and the bridesmaids.
Clayton did not mention this at that time nor afterward, but once the wedding was over, he sent Lil
Michael away.
Thus, Clayton was quite reluctant to let Michael come back now. He was worried that the little brat
would be up to no good again.
However, after hearing what Nicole said, was his reaction too much?
Clayton did not put himself in Michael’s shoes. If it was his misunderstanding, Clayton might really be
hurting his son’s feelings.
At once, his silence turned into guilt.
Nicole saw that Clayton had figured it out and pulled him forward.
“Talk to Michael properly later. Children won’t hold grudges.”
novelbinLil Michael and Tigger rolled around on the balcony on the second floor.
Tigger stood on a rocking chair and swayed.
Lil Michael sat opposite it and asked it with great interest.“Tigger, who is the fairest in the land?”
Tigger did not hesitate to say, “The Great Goddess Nicole!”
