The Divorced Billionaire Heiress Boss Chapter 1785

Add Another Zero Nicole was just about to refuse when she heard Clayton asking her
boldly. “Which project? Do I know about it?” Nicole smiled. “It’s Z Technologies.”

Clayton raised his eyebrows. “You got it in the bag?”

Nicole nodded. “You know about it?”.

“Of course. I made an offer, but Luke Youngblood obviously wanted too much, so I rejected him.”

Clayton smiled. His gaze carried some sharpness. “Although the project is novel and has a good
reputation, in the long run, he doesn’t have any assistance and will soon meet real difficulties that will hit
him hard in the face. Once everyone sees how lucrative this project is, the same type of project will
become commonplace. I don’t need to focus on Luke Youngblood. Perhaps there will be better options in
the future…”

Nicole bowed her head and smiled. Her tone was a little lamenting.



“That would be a pity. You missed a very good business opportunity.”

“How so? You took it down?”



Clayton looked at her with a smile on his face, seemingly not surprised by her reaction at all.

“Of course! I personally went over, so how could I fail?”

Clayton smiled and hesitated for a few seconds before he opened his mouth and asked. “How much did
it cost?”



Nicole’s smile faded. She then extended two fingers in a gesture.

Clayton froze for a moment and smiled.

“Nevermind. Being on Stanton Corporation’s platform, the benefits they can generate will be far more
than $20 million.”

However, in Clayton’s opinion, $20 million was still too much.

Nicole had always been generous, so Clayton could only say that Luke Youngblood got lucky.

Nicole froze for a moment and looked at him with a strange gaze. Her face was clearly not very happy.

She sat up straight.

Clayton realized her change in expression and pursed his lips. “What’s wrong?”

Nicole took a deep breath. “Add another zero to that.”

Clayton gasped. The disbelief in his eyes was clearly expressed.

He thought, ‘Could this be the infamous pregnancy brain? Nicole shouldn’t be so dumb…’

His gaze landed on her face. He hesitantly pursed his lips and spoke.

“How generous of you….”

Clayton, a perennial investor, did not even dare to make such an offer.

How was a small company with unknown prospects worth $200 million?

Nowadays, those that were worth $200 million were usually medium-sized companies that had been
around for more than ten years.



Was she stupid?

Nicole gave him a blank look.

“What do you know anyway! It’s a business secret!”

The corners of Clayton’s mouth twitched. “Oh…”

He did not dare to go on. If he said any more, they would have a fallout.

Nicole anxiously stood up, walked two steps forward, and could not help but speak up.

“You’re not allowed to laugh at me!”

“I didn’t!”

Nicole gritted her teeth and was being a bit unreasonable. “You did! You’re secretly laughing a t me in
your heart!”

Clayton laughed helplessly.

“You can’t guess what’s in my heart. I’m innocent! I really didn’t laugh at you.”

Nicole said, “I’ll be honest with you. Our company has a project that clashed with theirs, so that’s why I
offered them so much. I’m not a fool to slap them with money.”

This was not the entertainment industry. She would at least have to earn back the capital.

Clayton was stunned. Nicole carefully explained the situation. Since Clayton was her husband, there was
no harm for him to know.

After that, Clayton nodded in understanding. He finally figured out why Nicole was so willing t o spend
money.

Compared to her initial investment, this $200 million was indeed not much.

After all, the project they were preparing for could yteld much more than the cost.

Clayton smiled and looked at her.

“You see, I knew there was a reason for everything. I knew you wouldn’t be at a loss.”

Nicole rolled her eyes. Liar!

The look in Clayton’s eyes just now was clearly different.
