Save the Show
Clayton froze and subconsciously looked at Nicole.
Nicole was not aware and laughed with Yvette.
He slowly sighed in relief.
Clayton learned something new.
Time passed quietly.
The others did not leave until the afternoon.
Nicole felt suffocated in the hospital and wanted to go outside, but she was worried about Clayton.
In the blink of an eye, half a month passed.
Few people knew about Nicole’s whereabouts, but no one deliberately asked for her.
At noon, Clayton finished his rehab and sat on the sofa reading the news with Nicole.
Nicole read the entertainment news with great interest, much more energetic than when she read the
financial news.
Clayton looked at her for a while and was a bit puzzled.
“It’s usually all fake. Why are you so interested?”
Nicole rolled her eyes. “What do you know? I get the news from here, then I’ll go to Kai and Dominic for
confirmation to
know whether it’s true or not.”
Clayton could not quite understand Nicole’s hobby, but he continued to sit there patiently and read with
her.
Before long, he narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard Nicole’s phone suddenly ring.
No one came to disturb them these days.
Clayton was clearly almost completely healed, but he wanted t o delay a few more days.
After all, he did not always get the chance to get Nicole’s uncompromising care.
She looked at the caller ID and picked it up.
Clayton saw it too. It was from Grant.
“Big Brother?”
“Lil N, I got caught in a blizzard on the way back to Mediania and I’m stranded at the airport now.
There’s an important launch reception for Stanton Corporation in three hours, so I need someone to
attend. You don’t have to prepare anything. Logan will arrange for everything, so you just need to show
u
p.”
Grant’s voice was cold and firm, and he emphasized again.“.
This conference is very important. Someone has to attend.”
That “someone” could not simply be any vice president.
In Stanton Corporation, the most suitable person besides Grant was Nicole.
Grant also assumed that Clayton had recovered, so he asked Nicole to appear.
Nicole only thought for a second and immediately agreed.“ Okay, tell Logan to pick me up. I’ll be right
there.”
Grant answered and hung up the phone.
Nicole glanced at Clayton and hesitated a little, as if she could not bear to leave him here alone.
It was too cruel.
Clayton smiled. “Go ahead. It’s time for you to go out and get some air.”
Nicole pursed her lips. “Then you should take a nap. Maybe I’ll be back when you wake up.”
Clayton nodded. “Okay. Go ahead.”
He knew that it was a matter of time.
His heart rejected it, not wanting her to go out. He was both worried and afraid.
What if she met Eric? What if Caleb’s people were waiting for a. n opportunity to retaliate?
However, thinking about it, the Stanton family should probably have arranged everything.
Clayton was the one who was overthinking.
As soon as Nicole left the ward, she jumped out of her reluctant feelings.
After staying here for so many days, she felt like she became lazy with no place to use her strength.
In less than ten minutes, Logan came to pick her up.
Nicole got dressed. Today, she wore the limited edition fall high-fashion line. She looked elegant and
decent, and the vibrant colors made it seem like everything revolved around her. Her waist was well-
outlined, and she looked bright and charming. She was incredibly beautiful.
Logan was also stunned for a moment before instantly blooming in a smile.
This was Nicole Stanton!
“President, I find that you’re really beautiful beyond words!”
No woman could refuse such a compliment.
Although Nicole was ecstatic, she smiled calmly on the surface. “Flattery won’t get you a pay raise.”
