Clayton looked at Nicole and smiled. "Do you think anyone would believe me?"
Compared to the beloved Isaac, everyone was more willing to believe that it was Clayton who did it.
Nicole choked. Isaac was really detestable.
"From that point on, I was kicked out of the company and my father began to be wary of me. He held back m y activities everywhere and handed over the company and everything at home to his younger brother, Isaac. Just then, Michael's father got into an accident, and h e entrusted Michael and his wife to me. At that time, I overheard that Isaac was afraid of having an additional person to share the inheritance, so he wanted to kill Michael's mother and Michael. I immediately took them under my wing and got married as fast as I could."
Clayton looked at Nicole when he said this.
After all, his last marriage brought about a lot of opinions regarding him and put him in the criticisms of many people.
He was already used to it.
However, he did not want Nicole to get used to it too.
When he saw that she did not look very concerned, he sighed in relief.
"After the Sloan family found out about this, they didn't want the scandal to disgrace them, so they let m e take them away on the condition that Michael keeps the Sloan last name. Then, the day Michael's mother died, he met you..."
It was when Nicole saved Michael.
Nicole saved Clayton too.
Everything was predestined.
Nicole's heart trembled slightly. It seemed like she came into contact with them at a very delicate point i n time, at the turning point of fate.
Otherwise, five years later, she would not have gotten the contract with Clayton and got to know him.
However, she had a question.
"Why does Michael have to keep the Sloan last name? Since you left that place, it doesn't matter what last name he has, right?”
Clayton smiled and looked at her helplessly.
As expected of a pampered young lady, Nicole looked a t things too simply.
