There was a moment of silence.
Clayton suddenly lifted his head. His smile was warm and light as usual.
"I heard that Mr. Ferguson sent you flowers.”
Nicole's hand that was holding the cup faintly stiffened.
'He knew about that?’
Nicole really wondered if he planted some kind of spy around her.
She blinked. "He told Mitchell to send it over. I gave it t o Logan."
This was so she could save a lot of trouble.
Clayton smiled, clearly understanding what she meant.
"Won't Logan have a headache?"
Nicole shrugged her shoulders helplessly.
She did not want to kick up a fuss with Eric over some flowers.
It was not easy for everyone to be at peace with each other.
Clayton paused and looked at her with warm eyes.
"Don’t worry, I'll go talk to him. There's no reason to let you stand in front of me to protect me."
In fact, ever since they got together, it was always Nicole who stepped in to deal with Eric.
Perhaps Nicole did not feel anything wrong with it and thought that this was something she should do.
However, Clayton thought differently.
It was because this was exactly what Eric wanted.
If Clayton kept hiding behind Nicole, Eric would only look down on him more.
Clayton understood that Eric had been waiting to confront him.
However, Nicole did not think so.
"What do you have to say to him? It’s none of his business that we're together."
It was her freedom to do so. She had said it countless times.
Clayton said, "I have to go show off to him so that he dies from anger..."
Nicole was speechless.
She did not think that Clayton was that kind of person.
The two of them chatted and laughed together for a long time. Logan even helped them to order their dinner.
It was Logan's first time seeing a couple who dated in the office.
