Nicole was a bit stunned at the question.
Make it public?
So soon?
She was not mentally prepared for it.
After a few seconds of hesitation, she looked at him.
"Now's not the time yet, right? When some time passes H
It was not time for their relationship to be made public yet. Once it was made public, it was bound to set off a storm both inside and outside the circle.
It would even ripple into the stock market and cause turmoil. Thus, Nicole had to be prepared for it.
Besides, their relationship was not stable enough yet, and the consequences of rashly making their relationship public were too great...
It was not worth it.
Seeing Nicole’s troubled look, Clayton suddenly laughed.
His tone was low and gentle, and his eyes were a little helpless.
"It's okay. I'm not an unreasonable person. I’ll wait however long I have to, but on one condition..."
Nicole raised her eyes and looked at him.
His eyes gradually deepened as he paused.
"When you're discharged, don't go back to the Stanton Mansion. Move out, okay?"
Nicole looked at him with a complicated expression and said nothing.
She was much more alert now.
Clayton smiled helplessly. "You have to give your boyfriend a chance to be attentive. How will I perform i f you go back to Stanton Mansion?"
If he sent her home just a little later, Floyd might come after him with a knife.
Clayton did not dare to imagine that picture.
Nicole was conflicted for a moment. Thinking about it now, Clayton was right. She had gotten the wrong idea.
She misunderstood the lofty and noble Clayton Sloan.
Nicole nodded. "Okay, I'll tell my family, but... We can't live together.”
As soon as she finished speaking, the atmosphere fell awkwardly silent.
Clayton smiled meaningfully and stroked her hair.
