Blood Rushed to His Brain
Clayton thought, ‘Haven’t I already met her friends and best friends as her boyfriend tonight? Why
should we be afraid of them seeing us live together? Unless she doesn’t want anyone to know that our
relationship is already this close. Did that mean she was ready to end this relationship anytime?’ Nicole
realized that she said the wrong thing. She did not know how to explain herself. If the Stanton family
heard of this, Floyd and Grant would not let Clayton off the hook.
However, seeing the light in Clayton’s eyes extinguish little by little, she felt her heart break as if it was
being squeezed. The pain drilled into her bones. Just as Nicole was about to open her mouth to
explain, Clayton stood up calmly with a warm and understanding smile on his face. “Then you should
rest well. I’ll go upstairs first.” His tone remained calm without the slightest fluctuation.
However, Nicole heard a bone -piercing coldness. Clayton opened the bedroom door and went out.
Nicole suddenly panicked. She knew that if he left like this, they would be completely over. Nicole
suddenly ran out, dropping one of her slippers, and hugged his waist from behind. Clayton’ s body
stiffened, but he still restrained his voice.
“Let go.” Nicole gritted her teeth and gripped on. He was angry. It was a very serious kind. Clayton
patted her hand. His voice softened and no coldness could be heard. “Let go. I’m going up.” That tone
was as if nothing was wrong. However, Nicole still did not let go. She hugged him tightly, her voice low
and soft. “What if I don’t?” Nicole knew what she was doing, but she could not help it. She did not want
to hurt him in such a cruel way. All those other worries could just get lost. Clayton paused. His voice
lowered. “You’re really not letting go?” Nicole gripped him even tighter. T
he next second. Her vision flipped as she suddenly found herself in Clayton’ s arms. He clasped her
waist with one hand and the other hand around her legs. His actions were almost rough as he turned
around and walked towards her bedroom. “You were the one who refused to let go. Don’t regret it.” His
voice was already extremely husky. Nicole panicked for a few moments in her heart. It was like he
changed into a different person.
The warm and gentle mask on his face was taken off, and he became somewhat unfamiliar. Nicole had
noticed these looks that he subconsciously revealed. However, she liked the image he maintained in
front of her more. Who would not want to leave a good impression in front of his beloved? Thus, she
never pursued the root of what kind of person he really was.
Clayton’s eyes were slightly scarlet. One hand propped up beside her ear and the other hand
somewhat roughly undressed her. He caught the panic that flashed in Nicole’s eyes. His movements
slowed down. The cold and harshness faded from his eyes and was replaced with warmth and clarity.
Clayton was afraid he would scare her. He lowered his head, kissed her eyes, and then slowly trailed
down to kiss her lips. She did not dare to refuse or resist, and obediently let him do as he pleased.
However, the next second, she suddenly remembered something and opened her watery eyes. Nicole
pushed him away, gasping for breath. He put in some force, not giving her much chance to resist.
Lowering his head, Clayton was just about to continue when Nicole kicked him hard. “Close the door!”
The voice that flowed out was delicate and charming. Clayton froze. Only then did he realize that the
light cast from the living room was still bright and warm. Nicole’ s face was already scarlet, and her
bright red lips reflected a tantalizing haze of light. Clayton was really dominated by his emotions and let
the blood rush to his head. They almost staged a live show.
