Kai clicked his tongue twice. "Of course! I had more fun than you. Compared to you two, I look like a hedonistic trust fund kid!"
Grant finally reacted and spoke indifferently.
"Aren't you?"
Kai and Nicole were speechless.
Kai rubbed his nose and coughed.
"I'd better go up to bed!"
Halfway up the steps, Kai paused, looked at Nicole, and winked.
Nicole did not understand.
She lowered her head and continued to listen to Grant.
Before long, the phone that was placed to the side rang.
It was Grant's phone.
The caller ID read: Wife.
Nicole raised her eyebrows. Grant immediately picked it up. His voice became much softer.
"Hello?"
Grant stood up and gave Nicole a look, who nodded.
He went to the side to answer the call. His clear voice answered a few times with a smile at the corners of his lips. The gentle look on his face could not be concealed.
Never in Nicole's dreams did she think that Grant would end up like this one day.
Sure enough, finding the right person was the best thing.
Nicole looked down at the contents of the document. Just as she was thinking about it, Grant already hung up the phone.
Nicole waited for him to continue with a straight face.
However, Grant looked at the time.
"Forget it, your sister-in-law told me to rest early. I can’t stay up with you. I'm going to bed. Goodnight.”
Then, Grant gave her a look and added, "Remember to tidy up the papers."
He loosened his collar, took his phone, and went upstairs.
The corners of his mouth still held a soft smile.
Nicole was dumbfounded. 'Am I free just because of a phone call from Aida? Grant, who was never rash, changed his mind so easily?'
His figure gradually disappeared at the stairway. Only then did Nicole slowly react.
