Nicole's tense body abruptly relaxed, and her eyes reddened.
Clayton tucked his chin against her neck and gently stroked her hair. He sighed softly.
"What should I do with you?"
There was not even a trace of anger in his voice. It was only filled with helplessness.
Nicole came back to her senses and hugged Clayton tightly, burying herself in his arms and sobbing silently.
A long time passed.
Clayton's voice was calm. "Are you really going?"
Nicole still nodded.
He paused. "Alright, I'll go with you. Is his flight tomorrow?"
Nicole paused for a second and nodded. "You..."
Clayton pinched her ear and chuckled.
"I have to pick up a friend at the airport, so it's on the way."
Nicole hugged him tightly again, as if her heart could only find true peace with him.
Clayton's gaze deepened slightly, and the corners of his lips sank for a moment.
Clayton thought, 'Does Eric Ferguson really think that he still has a chance? Ridiculous!’
At that moment, someone pushed the door in.
Kai did not expect to see this scene and covered his eyes with shock.
"It’s broad daylight! Are you two that inseparable?"
Nicole and Clayton parted awkwardly. They were just hugging each other, but Kai misunderstood the situation. Kai really needed a beating.
Nicole naturally let out a cold snort.
"At least that’s better than a certain someone who clearly has a girlfriend yet lives as if he’s still single."
Yes, she was mocking Kai.
Sure enough, Kai's face changed dramatically and became indescribable. He pointed at her and yelled.
"Are you really my sister?!"
Was it that fun to poke him where it hurts?
"Of course!"
Kai’s face became livid, and he turned to leave. He wanted to gag at the sight of this public display of affection!
