Read of The Divorced Billionaire Heiress-By I Wanna Eat Meat
Clayton looked at Nicole deeply as he held her hands in his, steady and powerful.
“You don’t have to apologize, Nicole. I will explain it to them when it’s necessary. Nothing is more
important than you.”
His eyes seemed to carry too much affection. Nicole’s heart thumped violently. She could not help but
want to turn away, but she felt that it would be too deliberate.
She shook her head and hurriedly said, “I still think it’s better to hide it. Unless Lil Michael himself senses
that something is wrong, this secret can’t be easily revealed.”
Sometimes, telling the truth was like destroying a person’s world.
How could she bear to do that to the boy?
Clayton smiled and did not say anything. He was well aware of the situation.
Perhaps this secret could not be hidden for much longer. However, Nicole’s proposal was still heart-
warming.
Clayton pushed her to the window to look at the scenery as he changed the water for the vase by the
side. He was free earlier, so he took the chance to buy a bouquet of foxtail lilies from a florist not far
away. The fragrance was rather pleasant.
Nicole did not seem to hate it.
Although their relationship was not hot like fire, it was not stagnant either. They could both feel each
other’s efforts to get close to
the other. He was inching toward her, and she was not repulsed. Clayton’s manners and discretion were
very well-balanced, so he did not make her uncomfortable. Before long, Floyd marched over and called
Grant to come along as well. As soon as Grant heard it, he knew that all the company affairs would be
pushed to him.
Since Grant could not avoid it, he simply accepted it in silence. Did Nicole ’Lil N’ Stanton really not feel
ashamed working in fits and starts? The two of them pushed open the door and just so happened to see
Nicole sitting in a wheelchair, drinking coffee, and having an afternoon snack.
On the table, an iPad was playing an old TV series.
To the side, Clayton was peeling fruit for her with his well- defined fingers. He speared a piece of fruit
with a toothpick and brought it to her mouth.
“Ah…”
Nicole opened her mouth without looking away from the screen and bit on the fruit while Clayton tenderly
and dotingly wiped the corner of her mouth. Floyd and Grant just so happened to witness this scene.
Their expressions were complicated and different.
Floyd could not help but clear his throat, interrupting the couple’s little world. Nicole looked to the side
and saw them, then turned back to Clayton.
It was a little too fast for him to meet her family as her boyfriend. “Dad, Big Brother, why are you here?”
Clayton stood up unhurriedly and greeted them, then gave up his seat to Floyd. Floyd did not refuse and
went over to sit down. Seeing that scene earlier almost broke his heart.
“Why didn’t you go home to recuperate? I’m really furious with that little b*stard Kai. I told him to pick you
up, but he ran away instead…”
Nicole naturally knew why he ran. Clayton had told her everything.
“He’s busy. I’m fine here.”
Floyd suppressed his anger and snorted coldly. “Kai has no sense of priorities!” Floyd looked at his
darling daughter with loving and distressed eyes. “You’ve been injured twice. Does it hurt this time?”
Before Nicole could introduce him to Clayton, he was ignored by Floyd. Fortunately, Clayton simply stood
by and did not mind.
Floyd looked around. “If you don’t want to go home, I’ll ask the nanny to come here and take care of you.
The butler will come too and bring your clothes over. This place is too small. Director Sven was too
stingy when he designed this VIP ward!” Grant’s lips twitched helplessly.
Nicole paused. “Dad, this is a hospital. The nanny and butler will only take up their resources. Besides, I
don’t need them.” She looked up at Clayton, who immediately spoke. “Yes, Uncle Floyd. I’ll take care of
Nicole.” Floyd looked at him. “Mr. Sloan, why are you here? When did you get here? Why didn’t I see you
earlier?”
