The Deserted Rich Beauty novel Chapter 2424

Fortunately, Clayton was beside Nicole. He carried her to the bathroom.

“Come, let me help you.”

Clayton was out of control last night and felt a little guilty, so he was extra caring and meticulous toward Nicole today. He even wanted to brush her teeth for her.

Nicole was a little annoyed at his clinginess and urged him to get some clothes for her.

Clayton left reluctantly.

Soon, Nicole came out looking refreshed.

She paused when she saw the clothes that Clayton chose for her.

It was a plain turtleneck dress.

How could she ski in a dress?

Nicole looked at Clayton, perplexed.

Clayton touched his nose. “I thought you don’t have the energy to ski today, so why don’t you stay in with me?”

Nicole had no choice but to do so.

What a pity!

She wasted one day of her ski trip.

After getting dressed, she suddenly thought, ‘Did Clayton do this on purpose? He must have been envious of me skiing yesterday!’

When the two of them went downstairs, Chatty and Fischer had already started eating breakfast.

Kai and Julie came back after going out to play in the snow for a while.

There was no sign of Lance.

Chatty and Fischer gave Nicole a good morning kiss and went out to ski with the coach.

It was almost noon, and Lance still did not appear.

Somehow, Nicole was a little flustered.

Lance did not answer her calls either.

It would be rude to knock on his door, so Nicole asked a servant to go and ask Lance to come out for a meal.

The servant went and came back not long after.

“Ms. Stanton, no one responded.”

Nicole and Clayton looked at each other.

Nicole panicked.

Clayton took her hand and comforted her.

“Don’t worry. Call the owner of the ski resort and ask him to come and open the door. He must have a spare key.”

Nicole nodded and immediately took out her phone.

Lance was an adult, so they should not be so worried or even interfere with his whereabouts.

He should be able to go around freely.

However, it was not suitable for Lance to be alone in his current state.

Nicole was a little worried.

The call connected.

The boss told her.

“That guest is very weird. He told me yesterday that he wouldn’t stay any longer and that he was going to stay in a hotel. It was so sudden. I thought he would stay here for the next two days at least.”

“Hotel? Which hotel?”

“I’m not sure. Are you looking for him?”

Nicole did not want to say more and only said, “Do you have the key to his room?”

“Yes. I put it in the cabinet downstairs. You can get it yourself.”

Nicole hung up the phone and did not say anything else.

Julie noticed something was wrong and hurried in with Nicole.

Clayton did not follow them. He stood at the window with a solemn expression and tried to recall any abnormalities with Lance yesterday.

Nicole took out the key and opened the room. It was empty. No one was there.

The windows were open, so the temperature remained low. The air was as cold as the snow outside.

The bed was neat and clean. It looked like he had tidied up before leaving.

However, Lance’s luggage was still there.

There is a piece of paper under a glass on the table.

It was Lance’s handwriting.
