The Deserted Rich Beauty novel Chapter 1362

Nicole froze for a second and blinked her eyes. 'Did Dad just tell me this? Shouldn’t this be for Grant, who’s a man?’

Grant silently bowed his head and ate, pretending not t o hear them.

"Clayton doesn't want to take over. He doesn't have feelings for the Sloan Corporation. If I hadn't mentioned Michael, Clayton wouldn't even want to take care of it.”

Floyd listened and frowned slightly.

"Right, it's only logical that Michael should inherit Sloan Corporation."

Grant pursed his lips, wiped his mouth, and said in an indifferent tone.

"It’s no longer the Sloan family’s, so what's rightful about it? Let's just take it as it is for now and consider i t as buying a bet for Nicole's safety. At least, Quavon won't be able to find trouble with us again for a while."

Floyd nodded in agreement.

The three of them finished eating. Nicole was not sleepy at all and intended to go to the screening room t o watch a movie.

Before she went up, she heard a commotion outside.

Not long after, Maverick came in.

Grant also froze for a moment.

"Didn't you go back to the research institute long ago?"

Maverick pursed his lips. His golden glasses frame made him look cool and detached.

"I took a leave of absence."

"You've taken so many leaves. Did you buy the institute?" Nicole could not help but ask.

Maverick shot her a look. "Molly asked me to meet her parents."

Nicole and Grant looked at each other.

Grant went upstairs in silence.

He was not interested in this topic at all. He was more interested in acting as a prop.

Nicole was the exact opposite. She bounced down the stairs and excitedly walked over to Maverick.

"Mav, you're finally enlightened?! You're actually willing to take time off work just to see her parents? In the past, when dad was sick and hospitalized, you didn't even want to take time off. Did Molly break up with you again?"

Maverick pursed his lips tightly and said nothing.

He was going to walk inside, but Nicole walked beside him excitedly and asked.

"I helped you a lot! You have to tell me! If you don't tell me, I’ll just ask her. If I say anything I shouldn't then, don't regret it!"
