The Divorced Billionaire Heiress Boss Chapter 2078

Chapter 2078

Deliberately Hiding Nicole clicked her tongue and finally gave up on calling Clayton

"Mr.Sloan".

However, Nicole noticed that every time she called him that, Clayton would frown and start to lecture
her seriously.It was as if he could write a book on his view of marriage.

Nicole found it kind of funny.

Fortunately, Nicole’s mood during the next half of the car journey improved a lot.

Nicole glanced at the public opinion online.

Those topics about her were suppressed.

At the same time, the public relations department of Stanton Corporation also issued a statement.They
expressed regret for the death of Tina and Zach Gilbert but stated that Nicole had nothing to do with
this matter and would fully cooperate with the police investigation.

They also reserved the right to pursue this legally until the investigation was over.

As soon as this statement was released, the rumors online gradually died down.

The platform had also deliberately suppressed the topic, so those malicious speculations about Nicole
did not continue.

However, the virality of this topic came out of nowhere.



According to Logan’s investigation, the most popular searches on the platform were generally bought
by fake accounts.

However, this time, the accounts and IP addresses that exposed Nicole and made the situation worse
were from abroad.

This was a little confusing.The other party deliberately blocked their IP address and used virtual IP
addresses.The account would be deactivated after one use.

Thus, they could not pinpoint the other party’s exact location or find any traces.

Fortunately, the other party did not continue to create trouble after the Stanton family retaliated.

Finally, they arrived at Kirsi’s apartment lobby.

Nicole had been there with Tina before by following Zach.She did not expect to come again so soon.

The only difference this time was that there were many plain- clothes police officers coming and going
at the ground floor of the building.

There were also people who were looking around the location in which Zach had jumped off the
building.

There were significantly fewer people walking around nearby.

Shane took out two hats masks from the storage compartment in front.

They were brand new and had never been worn before.He handed them to the back.

Clayton took them over and gave one hat and mask to Nicole.

Nicole took it over, looking dumbfounded.



"What’s the use of this? We have nothing to hide!" Clayton glanced at her and smiled.

"Of course, we have a clear conscience.But it’s better to avoid unnecessary trouble.If a troublesome
reporter follows us, it'll inevitably cause another stir up.What’s more, there are police officers on
guard.If we show up rashly, we might get into trouble.So, it’s better not to let people know that we’re
here."

Nicole heard this and nodded.It made sense.

The few of them put on their disguises before getting out of the car.

When Nicole got out of the car, she froze for a while.

She leaned in closer to Clayton.

"Wait.Isn’t it easier for people to notice us when we look like this?"

After she said this, she saw a few people walking out of the apartment lobby in a hurry.

Those people were dressed exactly like the four of them.

Nicole was speechless.

Clayton glanced at her.

"Many of the residents here are actors, so it’s not at all weird to dress like this."

Nicole smiled sheepishly because she was so ignorant.

However, Clayton could not see her expression through the mask.Shane walked in front, and Luca
walked closely behind Nicole.



Nicole did not know how Clayton could get into this relatively private apartment so smoothly, but she
was not surprised.

They went upstairs with the elevator.

Kirsi took a while to open the door after they knocked.She held her bulging belly that looked about five
or six months pregnant.

Kirsi looked puffy and uneasy.

When she saw Nicole, her expression instantly changed into fear.

Kirsi wanted to close the door immediately, but Clayton did not give her a chance to do so.

The doorway was blocked.

Seeing Kirsi like this, Nicole had more doubts in her heart.

"Kirsi, I just want to ask you a few questions."

Kirsi’s expression changed several times, but her red eyes were calm.

Kirsi bit her lower lip, looked at Clayton, and opened the door.

Nicole looked at the people behind her.

"Don’t follow us inside.Otherwise, people will think we're here to bully her."

Shane nodded behind Nicole.Luca hesitated for a while but did not follow them inside.

Nicole went in and saw the messiness inside.

Clothes and opened boxes of various sizes were strewn everywhere.She squinted.



"Are you moving out?"

Kirsi glanced at Nicole with a complicated and vigilant gaze.

"Since Zach is dead and I’m pregnant, it’s inconvenient to continue staying here."

Clayton walked in and looked around.His face was stern, and his cold vibe was hard to ignore.

Kirsi seemed hostile toward Nicole but fearful of Clayton.She paused and immediately looked away.

"You guys can sit and say what you came here to say." Her face was pale, and she looked rather weak.

Nicole glanced around.

No one was there to take care of Kirsi.However, Nicole thought that it made sense since Kirsi was
moving out soon, so Kirsi would not hire new staff.

Nicole looked at Kirsi.

Just as she was about to speak, Clayton asked in a cold voice from behind, "Have the police talked to
you after Zach’s incident?"

Kirsi nodded.

"What did they ask you, and how did you answer them?"

Nicole was stunned for a moment.She wanted to ask about Zach’s situation before his death.

However, Clayton asked about what happened after Zach’s death.

Although Nicole was puzzled for a moment, she suddenly realized through Clayton’s question that he
seemed to have a grasp on the overall situation.



Clayton was truly something! Nicole thought to herself and saw Kirsi’s hesitance.

After a while, Kirsi replied, "They asked me if there was anything strange about Zach before his death,
and if he had any last words and letters.They also asked me who he met."

Clayton nodded and looked at Kirsi with an intense gaze.

"Then how did you answer?"

Kirsi took a deep breath.

Her eyes held complicated emotions as she said, "At that time, I was upset about the rumors online, so
I went to my former agency and asked if they could help me deal with it.But they refused to help and
didn’t want to waste their resources on me, so I came back in a fit of anger.When I came back here, I
saw Zach standing on the balcony, ready to jump off.It was just for a few seconds, and he just jumped
without looking back at me..."

Kirsi’s voice was low when she spoke.

Tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.

Kirsi bowed her head and sobbed with a pained expression.

Nicole pursed her lips and looked at Kirsi with a complicated expression.

"Kirsi, did Zach kill Tina?"

In an instant, Kirsi stopped crying.She looked up at Nicole with a weird expression."

"Why are you asking this? I don’t know...I don’t know anything!"

Clayton narrowed his eyes.His face darkened.



They could all see that Kirsi was deliberately hiding something.

Nicole said, "With your relationship with Zach, you’re the biggest beneficiary if Tina is dead.Now that
Zach is also dead, all of his assets, including the contract with me that was not executed yet, belongs
to you.So how could you not know anything?"
