Chapter 1148 Nothing Much

Author: I Wanna Eat Meat
Clayton froze. His eyes turned slightly colder.

Nicole looked at Clayton’s face and knew that he was not going to tell her about it.

At that moment, she wanted to draw back her hand, but Clayton held it tightly.

He wrinkled his eyebrows and looked stoic.

“Have you heard something?”

“What do you think?”

At this time, Nicole did not ask him directly why he did not tell her about his financial crisis.

A “what do you think?” seemed to leave him some room for maneuver, but it also seemed direct enough.

Clayton looked at her for a few seconds. He looked frank as he lowered his head and laughed.

“I know.”

“What do you know?”

Nicole asked him back.

“Did you hear that I’m going bankrupt?”

Nicole did not make a sound.

Her silence showed everything.

Clayton squeezed her hand. His tone was a bit helpless. “I put out this fake news, so I didn’t tell you.”

Nicole froze and looked at him with a blank face.

“It’s fake?”

Clayton nodded his head.

    Clayton sighed with relief, but he felt that things might not be that simple.Otherwise, why would Nicole be so out of character last night?He stroked Nicole’s hair. His gentle tone was somewhat sullen.“Nicole, I can tell you everything frankly, so you shouldn’t hide anything from me, okay?”Nicole looked at him and was silent for a few seconds. She nodded her head.“It’s really nothing. Eric just drank one too many and was talking nonsense. I found out about your bankruptcy from him. At that time, I was anxious and angry, so I lost my temper with you. I’m sorry…”By the end of the sentence, her voice got smaller.Clayton also fell silent for a few seconds. His gaze was increasingly guilty and gentle as he looked at her.“I’m the one who’s sorry. I should’ve told you in advance…”Nicole took a deep breath.“But I wasn’t that worried. I was just angry that you hid it from me.”Clayton smiled and reached out to tuck her hair behind her ear.“Really? If I go bankrupt, I won’

    Although Nicole also felt like it was a little too excessive, the film’s producer was Falcon Entertainment, so the box office was directly related to her income.Thus, she could ignore this imperceptible little flaw.Money was more important after all.Clayton looked at her and nodded. “Well, the subject matter is decent…”He forcefully tried to save the situation.Nicole agreed and nodded awkwardly.After watching the movie, it was already 4:00 pm.The two of them were distracted as they accompanied each other to watch the movie.In fact, they did not focus on the movie.Nicole looked at her watch. “You’re really not leaving? Are you staying here for a few days?”Clayton laughed. “Are you looking forward to me leaving? Or do you not want me to go?”Nicole was speechless and thought to herself, ‘Does he have to tease me all the time?’Clayton sighed.“Well, even if you don’t want me to leave, I can’t help it. I have a flight in the evening to Liberty. There are still seven

    Unexpectedly, Clayton left by himself.Nicole immediately took her phone and saw a note pressed underneath.“I can leave at ease when you have a good night’s sleep. Goodnight, Baby!”Nicole froze for a long time. Her heart was sweet and sour with all sorts of emotions.She picked up her phone, clicked on WhatsApp, and saw Clayton’s message at 5:00 am.[I’ve just landed safely. Good morning to you!]The corner of Nicole’s lips curled up.She immediately replied. [Good morning, Mr. Sloan!]......Clayton made a quick trip, which made Nicole so happy that she was cheerful all day. She did not go to the office and carried the carefully selected gifts to the car for Yvette and Julie.It was great to be her bestie.Julie was on the set. Nicole thought about it and took those ugly big brand bags and clothes to the car.Nicole really did not understand how Clayton’s tastes could be good for a moment and bad the next.At the set.Julie looked at those big brand bags that were rand

    Ferguson Corporation.Eric’s office was extremely cold.During this period, Eric’s mood began to return to the state before the divorce. He was exuding a kind of strong chill that came from the bones.The entire company worked carefully.Even Mitchell inevitably became Eric’s punching bag a few times.Eric sat there in the shadows as he was shrouded in a dense chill.The radiant Keith Ludwig was sitting opposite Eric.Their expressions were simply worlds apart.Toto was extremely reluctant to feed the fish in Eric’s office. The two fish worth several hundreds of thousands each were overfed by Toto and died. Fortunately, Eric did not find out.Toto pricked up his ears to eavesdrop. Keith laughed in a shrill voice.“Ferg, you just have to bite the bullet and be ruthless. Women can’t be spoiled. Look, Livia’s back to my side now, isn’t she?”Eric sat there with clear and cold eyes. He lifted his eyelids and looked indifferent.If Keith had not come over to share his joy of vic

    Hearing Toto’s words, Keith paused and laughed.Keith put down the coffee cup in his hand heavily.“Do you think that Eric’s tactics will be straightforward enough to leave evidence? When whatever happens is done, Clayton Sloan will naturally have to get lost. By then, who will feel nauseated? It just depends on whether Ferg will be soft-hearted!”Eric’s eyebrows were twisted. His face turned unconsciously glum.Toto took a look at Eric’s expression and lowered his voice.“Ms. Stanton isn’t a submissive person. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have gotten divorced. Ms. Lehman has a good temper and doesn’t have as good a family background as the Ludwig family, so of course, Ms. Lehman will have many concerns. Even now if she agrees to be with you, it’s not necessarily from the heart…”As soon as Toto said that, the room became inexplicably silent.Toto just dumped a bucket of cold water over Keith’s head, so Keith looked displeased.Of course, Keith knew why Livia had agreed to go back t

    When Hayley saw Nicole, she was as excited as a fan seeing her idol.Hayley forgot about everything else.Nicole did not even understand where Hayley’s enthusiasm was coming from.“It is quite a coincidence. I have an appointment with someone, so I can’t stay and chat with you. See you later!”Nicole was just about to leave when Hayley hurriedly stopped her.“With your friends? Is it convenient if we sit together? My friends really like you and they’re eager to meet you!”The corners of Nicole’s lips faintly stiffened. ‘Oh no, I don’t want a group of underage kids to watch how I get drunk! That scene is just too creepy to think about…’Just as Nicole was about to refuse, Hayley looked behind her and greeted her friends.“Hey, I saw Nicole! I told you that we’re good friends. She even invited us to her private room to party!”Nicole raised her eyebrows. ‘When did I invite them? I don’t recall anything like that!’Five or six teenagers that were about Hayley’s age and dressed i

    Hayley nodded speechlessly.“Yeah, my dad even wanted me to befriend that rich playboy Keith Ludwig. It’s that guy’s second marriage. I’ll be blind if I like him…”Nicole, Yvette, and Julie were dumbfounded.“But fortunately, not long after my dad mentioned it, Keith Ludwig’s going to remarry his unlucky ex-wife again. I escaped a disaster!”Hayley stretched her back and smiled smugly.Nicole asked, “Your father has given up looking for a stepmother for you?”Hayley replied, “He’s infamous now, so he had to give up. That vixen has caused a great deal of damage to our family. Our reputation took a hit, so which respectable high-society lady will still like my dad? He’s afraid that those women who take the initiative to approach him will be similar to that vixen, so he simply gave up!”Yvette laughed at the side and clinked her glass with Hayley.“Your father looks restless. There are plenty of divorced and widowed rich women in the circle, and those people can be quite aggressiv

    Nicole slowly followed at the back and watched as Hayley and her friends chose the most remote private room, hesitating as they stood in front of the door.Yvette smiled meaningfully from behind.Nicole was puzzled and felt that something was off.Suddenly, Hayley and her friends knocked on the door and went inside, then began to hop like rabbits.The moment the door was opened, the sound inside flooded out. It turned out that it was not quiet inside. This private room just had the best soundproofing.Then, a man’s angry yelling came from inside.“Hayley, have you gone crazy?”Nicole and Yvette looked at each other. They could both hear that this voice did not belong to the group of teenagers.The people in the private room surprisingly knew who Hayley was. Subsequently, Hayley shouted. “How can you come but I can’t?!”“Watch yourself! What a disgrace!”Nicole went to the door and heard the voice. It was Hayley’s father, the President of Golden Sea Corporation.She could h

If you don’t want this, we can go to my place, and I’ll make you a cup of coffee.”Chatty nodded.Fischer let down his hand and naturally held Chatty’s hand.

    After Chatty left, Clayton sighed miserably for several days, and Nicole was speechless when she saw this.Life in school was not so boring.Although Chatty had been spoiled since childhood, she was not arrogant or insufferable.Chatty was bubbly, outgoing, and clever, so she was very popular.From time to time, she invited everyone to party in her big villa. Thus, everyone loved her even more.Chatty also enjoyed her time alone.She would go for a walk along the Seine and feed the pigeons in the sunset...However, she always felt that someone was watching her whenever she was alone.Even so, she did not think much about it.

    Clayton talked to Chatty about studying abroad.Chatty agreed without hesitation.He asked her where she wanted to go, to which she replied that she was fine with anywhere except France.Clayton pondered for a while before asking, “Are you reluctant about France because of Fischer?”Chatty’s eyes turned red.“I don’t remember him at all. Daddy, don’t mention him!”She felt aggrieved.Chatty grew up with him, and he suddenly disappeared one day.It felt like a dream.That person was no longer behind her. Fischer was no longer around.Chatty missed him very much, but Fischer did not even say goodbye.Clayton touched her head and looked at his daughter in distress.“Chatty, now that you’ve grown up, you should know that Fischer had no choice but to leave. He also couldn’t contact you, so if you see him in the future, don’t blame him.”Chatty stubbornly turned her head away, pretending not to care.She was the apple of Clayton’s eye, so when had she ever suffered any grievanc

She thought that her daughter should enjoy the feeling of sweet and youthful love.Thus, Nicole asked Chatty about her feelings and did not think she was too serious in a relationship.Nicole felt that she could turn a blind eye to it.However, when Clayton found out, he could not sleep all night.Clayton intended to have a good talk with his daughter.Chatty did not think much of it.“Everyone in my class has a boyfriend. If I didn’t have one, I wouldn’t be able to keep up with the trend! Of course, I have to date while I’m young. Otherwise, it won’t be considered puppy love anymore! Life without a first love isn’t perfect!”Clayton tried to persuade her. “You’re still young. If you see the world, you’ll know that men aren’t great.”“Then is Mommy blind since she’s with y

    Jade was silent for a moment. Then, she pursed her lips.“I don’t care what method you use. You must get your parents to see Selena. Otherwise, I will make your parents drink this bottle of potassium cyanide.”Jennifer raised her head abruptly. Her face was extremely pale.“Okay.”She spoke in a low voice.The uneasiness and fear in her eyes could not be concealed.......A few days later, the opportunity came.Eric specially brought Selena to attend a charity auction to relax her mind.Moreover, he also bought a lot of jewelry and antiques.

    When Selena talked about Nicole and Eric, she had a smile on her face, and there was no concern or disgust in her eyes.It was probably because Selena felt that Eric had left his past behind.Eric would never approach Nicole again, and they each had their own lives.Nicole smiled. The gemstone bracelet in the box was shiny and beautiful. It was extravagant with each carefully crafted gemstone. There was a kind of wild and exquisite beauty to it.Nicole shook her head and could not help but laugh.“I liked collecting these a few years ago, but I’ve restrained myself now. Thank you, I really like it!”Selena took the initiative to give her a gift, which showed that she did not mind Nicole’s past with Eric. They just laughed it off.Nicole wore the bracelet on her wrist. It was indeed very beautiful.Selena smiled and was very happy to see that Nicole liked it.“The past is in the past.

    Jade’s rudeness made Floyd’s face darken.Nicole twitched the corner of her mouth indifferently.“The shares of Stanton Corporation belong to the Stanton family. Back then, Uncle Noah signed his shares over to the company so that he would only enjoy the dividends. Now that he has left the company, he will not be able to enjoy the dividends. Aunt Jade, your plan has failed. These shares aren’t part of your property division. Even if they are to be divided, the interests of the company come first.”Jade’s complexion was dull.“Then what should I do? If he goes to jail, how will I survive? I don’t care! Those shares must be given to me! Otherwise, I won’t rest!”Jade sat there looking like a rogue, as if she was determined to get the shares.Floyd’s face was gloomy, and he glanced at Jade with a complicated look.“You should go back and wait for the police and the company’s notice. Noah stole hundreds of millions of dollars from the company. The company is nice enough not to chase

    Jade’s face turned pale.“You should try both, or at least find a reliable lawyer to get him less jail time.”Nicole could not help but chuckle.She interrupted their conversation.“Aunt Jade, in fact, you came at the right time. We’re here to discuss how to rescue Uncle Noah!”Jade glanced at her in surprise and disbelief.“Then… What did you discuss?”Clayton smiled inexplicably. His warm gaze fell on Nicole, and he looked like he was watching a good show.Nicole sighed.“Actually, we have consulted a lawyer. The worst-case scenario is the death penalty. After all, he killed two people. But there is a way. Uncle Noah was married to you back then, right? As long as you come forward to testify that Uncle Noah has been with you all the time, so he didn’t have a chance to commit those crimes, there may be a glimmer of hope!”Jade’s face turned pale instantly, and she stood up in shock.“You… You want me to give a false statement?
