However, this time, Nicole had some doubts about her thoughts.
If it was a coincidence that Clayton saved her during the car accident in Sand City, then what about this time?
Clayton could have chosen not to come. Why did he come at this time?
His arrival was like a light in her life that gave her hope.
The air was silent for a few seconds.
Clayton slowly opened his mouth. His voice was clean and clear.
"Yesterday was my birthday so I wanted to have dinner with you. With luck, we could have a late supper too."
His eyes were overflowing with gentleness. He smiled unhurriedly when he saw Nicole's stiff and shocked look.
“I couldn't find you, but I was unwilling to give up. Ms. Quimbey's staff said that you went to a bar. The bar owner said you left with Mr. Carter. Mr. Carter's nanny at home said that you guys came to the mountains to watch the meteor shower..."
He frowned slightly as he spoke, looking slightly depressed. Then, he suddenly laughed.
"I almost gave up at first, but then I changed my mind. I wanted to see if there really was a meteor shower in the weather forecast. However, what I saw was news o f heavy rain and mudslides. I called you, but you didn't answer, so I could only come to find you myself."
Nicole opened her mouth and suddenly found that she did not know what to say.
A "thank you” seemed too perfunctory, and she would feel apologetic if she used just a few polite words to brush him off.
Clayton searched all the places Nicole went to. Even though he knew that it was dangerous, he still rushed over without hesitation.
Suddenly, the tip of Nicole’s nose felt a little sour as her eyes reddened.
Clayton was really pursuing her with all his heart, but she never took him seriously.
His unilateral efforts in this relationship were really too humble.
It was so humble that Nicole remembered her former self.
There seemed to be a thin thread in her heart that was squeezing her tightly until blood oozed out, so much s o that it hurt her to breathe.
Nicole looked at him, pursed her lips, and said with a somewhat dry voice.
"Clayton, why are you so good to me?"
