The Divorced Billionaire Heiress Boss Chapter 1590

Anything You Wish For

However, before Nicole could stop him, Clayton had already spoken.

“Raising Michael is my repayment to Liam, as well as my responsibility, but meeting you and protecting
you is my instinct. At first, I questioned my purpose in pursuing you. Was it out of a momentary sense
of novelty? Was liking you an illusion? But the longer we get to know each other, I feel like every time I
get closer to you, it makes more sense. That’s why I want to get even closer to you and understand you
more. You’re more important to me than you think.”

Nicole’s gaze froze for a moment.

Seeing that she was about to cry again, Clayton did not continue to speak.

Instead, he smiled and reached out to drop his hand on top of her head.

“I didn’t think much when I knew that there was a bomb. If I thought about it, I might have gotten scared
too, alright?”

Nicole sniffled, suppressing the emotions that were sprouting i n her heart. A certain emotion seemed
to gush out.

She knew that maybe, in her heart, Clayton was more important than he thought too.

Nicole chuckled, obviously unconvinced.

“Is that so? Then why did you run so fast?”

“It’s my fault that I couldn’t control my legs. I was worried that you were scared alone inside.”

Clayton joked.



Nicole lowered her head. Her gaze dropped, and when she raised it again, her eyes rippled with a
twinkling smile.

“No matter what, we were still very lucky. I’m the luckiest.”

“Yes, you’re the luckiest.”

Nicole said, “Do you want anything?”

Clayton wrinkled his brows in confusion. “You mean to repay

me?»

Nicole paused and pursed her lips.

“My dad told me to ask you. He said that you saved his darling daughter, so you can ask for whatever
you want.”

Clayton laughed.

“Really?”





Nicole nodded.

According to Floyd’s ability, as long as it was not something completely outrageous, even if Clayton
asked him to give up Stanton Corporation, Floyd would actually consider it.

Clayton was about to brush it off, but Nicole could see through his thoughts.



She pressed on his hand and looked at him expectantly.

“Think about it seriously. What’s your wish?”

She hoped he would say it.

If it was now, no matter what conditions he brought up, Nicole would agree immediately.

Something that she did not dare to face before that he had always longed for, but she had ignored –
marriage.

They would be together forever.

Nicole thought to herself that if he said it, she would also say

yes.

There was no reason to reject a man who brought her warmth and security.

Clayton’s smile froze. His eyes when he looked at her immediately turned dark and deep.

“I can have anything I wish for?”

He asked solemnly.

Nicole nodded.

The room was silent.

Even the air stopped flowing.

The two of them stared at each other. Neither of them moved their eyes away.



At that moment, Nicole could tell that his thoughts were similar to what she had guessed.

She thought that he would say it.

However, he smiled and spoke with a lazy expression. “My wish is…”

He paused and beckoned, and Nicole leaned her ear over.

Clayton whispered in her ear.

In an instant, Nicole’s face seemed to turn as red as a ripe tomato, flushed with shyness and
avoidance.

She jerked up and pointed at Clayton, looking at him with a disappointed expression.

“Y-Y-You… Even at a time like this, that’s your wish?”

She lost her eloquence, but no one knew if it was because of anger or embarrassment.

How could that gentle and warm man in her impression say something like that?

Nicole simply did not want to talk to him anymore.

It felt like the temperature in the room rose because of his

words.
