Yvette opened her mouth but could not refute.
She was in the wrong for this matter.
Nicole helped her out from the side.
"Wouldn't it be bad if she I told you and you told everyone? Of course, we can't tell you!"
Ian sat there with red eyes and looked at Nicole.
"How could I have told everyone? Your safety was at stake, and you were in danger. I should've been the first to go and save you!"
Seeing that Ian was actually about to cry, Nicole was slightly stunned and looked over in amazement.
Clayton, who was sitting on the hospital bed watching all this, was a little annoyed.
However, Clayton smiled, and his voice was still gentle.
"Second Young Master Carter, if you knew about it, you would've gotten desperate trying to find Nicole. Wouldn't Mr. Stanton’s plan be ruined then?"
Ian was immediately a little satisfied at having his mind read.
However, he could not say anything to refute.
Yes, if it were him, he would have found a way to throw himself into the net and send his own head over.
Yvette walked over and patted Ian's head.
"You don't even have a chance anymore. What's the point of fantasizing about being the hero? Didn't you get a new girlfriend recently? I heard that she's a secretary who just returned from studying abroad and that she's quite beautiful and capable. When are you going to introduce her to us?"
The topic was successfully changed.
Nicole and Julie were shocked.
Julie did not know about it either. She was so busy with her career that except for chatting with her best friends and dating Kai, she had neglected Ian's private life.
Ian stammered and was dumbfounded by the question.
"W-Where did you get that information from?"
He had only made initial contact and did not go much deeper.
Yvette smiled. "My husband told me. He’s very well-informed!"
Ian's face turned from white to red. In an instant, he was forced by Yvette to tell the truth.
"We're just acquaintances. She just so happened to send her resume to Carter Corporation, and I thought that she was competent, so I let her stay. There's no other relationship. Don't go spouting nonsense outside!"
