Before Clayton could make a sound, another assistant said, "Ms. Stanton is very busy!"
"Even if she's busy, it doesn't mean that she won't surprise Mr. Sloan. Not to mention, Mr. Sloan has returned all the shares of the Sloan Corporation to Ms. Stanton and he's just dealing with those company matters in name only. It’s evident how much Mr.
Sloan likes her!"
"Ms. Stanton still doesn't know about this, so don't blurt it out and ruin Mr. Sloan's plan. Right, President?”
Clayton smiled and looked at the watch on his wrist.
"Right, but she'll know sooner or later since there’s nothing to hide. It's late, so you guys should head back. I’ll..."
Before Clayton could finish his sentence, the assistant in the back stretched out his hand in shock to point forward.
"That... Isn't that Ms. Stanton?"
Clayton faintly froze. His eyes instantly lit up, but in the next second, his smile faded.
His eyes narrowed slightly and sank coldly.
The assistant at the back went to take a closer look.
"Oh, I was mistaken. That's not Ms. Stanton..."
The two assistants noticed that Clayton’s mood seemed off. They looked at each other and did not speak again.
Clayton wanted to walk past that woman and leave straight away.
However, Angie spoke before Clayton could leave.
"Mr. Sloan, are you very disappointed that I'm not Ms. Stanton?"
Clayton did not make a sound. His eyes were cold, sunken, and still, as he strode away.
Angie's eyes darkened. She instantly lifted her spirits t o catch up with him again.
"Mr. Sloan, are you really not planning to cooperate with me? The Stanton family won't like you no matter how much you sacrifice for Ms. Stanton. They won't support your relationship with Ms. Stanton, and Eric won't stand by and watch you two get married. Didn’t you ever think about marrying her?"
