When Nicole and Sully rushed over, Clayton had already arrived at the private room that was prebooked.
Sully was more excited than seeing his relatives when he saw Clayton.
As soon as they met, they went up and hugged each other.
"Clayton, long time no see! You said that you'd come back to Liberty after a few months, but you never returned...”
Clayton's temperament was extraordinary as he stood tall. He smiled as he spoke.
"Welcome!"
Saying that, Clayton went over to hold Nicole's hand.
Sully was speechless. 'Is he really happy that I'm here?’
Nicole smiled and held him back. Clayton's thumb rubbed the back of her hand. This small action was full of intimacy and ambiguity.
Her heart trembled slightly as she felt like it was being brushed by a feather.
Nicole turned to look at him. Clayton's side profile was smooth. He had deep features, and his smile was sincere and warm.
He made her feel comfortable.
Sully went into the private room first. Clayton then pulled Nicole back so that they were a step slower.
Clayton suddenly leaned down and whispered in her ear.
"Did it go well? He didn't take advantage of the situation, right?”
Clayton was constantly concerned about Nicole's progress.
Nicole's heart was a soft mess. 'How could I meet such a nice person?'
She pursed her lips and held back the sourness in her eyes as she looked at him.
"No, he didn't. But those two percent of the shares were transferred to me from your hands?"
Clayton froze. His face sank.
"Why did he tell you everything?"
Nicole looked at him helplessly. "If I had known..."
Clayton smiled and patted her shoulder.
"There's no need to feel pressured. It's just the same whether it’s under your name or my name."
