The intimacy between the two people caused a crazy emotion called jealousy to drill into the heart of the person watching not far away when he saw this.
Eric did not hide his darkness and malice. He had tried to get rid of that man countless times.
However, what happened?
Eric controlled himself.
If Eric got rid of Clayton when their relationship was a t its best, that man would become the person with the deepest impression in Nicole's heart.
Nicole would love that man for the rest of her life. If that happened, Eric would have lost completely.
Clayton closed the door for Nicole, went to the driver's seat, and started the car.
His eyes glanced gently, but no one knew if he was looking at the rearview mirror or Eric outside the window. The smile on the corners of his lips was slightly cold.
Nicole received the transfer on her phone, which made the corners of her lips curl up gently.
One million dollars. Gerard was quite straightforward.
Clayton glanced at her. "Why are you so happy?”
Nicole smirked. "I won money. Of course, I'm happy." "From whom?"
"Gerard," Nicole said.
Clayton's face was still warm and modest as he smiled.
"It seems the amount wasn't small then?"
"$1 million. Let’s go. I'll treat you to dinner!"
Clayton said, "I already cooked. Maybe another day."
Nicole's eyes widened. "So soon? Didn't you go to the office?"
Clayton said, "It’s nothing much. I solved it over the phone, so I bought the groceries."
Nicole sighed. "You’re really virtuous, Mr. Sloan."
After a pause, she added, "Is this the experience you got from taking care of our Lil Michael?"
Clayton heard the teasing in her tone and clicked his tongue before looking at her.
"Don't test me, or you'll have to suffer tonight.”
She understood the implication in his words.
Nicole was not someone who easily admitted defeat.
"I'll go back to the mansion!"
What would Clayton do then?
Clayton smiled. "Then I’ll go too."
Nicole turned her head to the side and looked at Clayton's smile. It did not seem like he was joking.
Was he serious?
Clayton said, "What, am I not welcomed?"
Nicole said, "Nope, you're very welcome!"
Clayton laughed. He knew that it was not the right time.
Their relationship was stable, but not stable enough.
