The Deserted Rich Beauty (Nicole and eric) novel Chapter 534

Nicole curled her lips, and she inadvertently retracted her hand. "It doesn’t hurt anymore."

She looked at Clayton, whose face was tinged with slight anger, and the conflict in her heart disappeared.

Lil Michael reminded Nicole that Clayton was an exceptional man, so there must be countless people who would surround him. Nicole did not know anything about him except for his deceased ex-wife.

How could she think of him as a blank sheet of paper?

Nicole returned to her senses in time, never dragging her feet.

Clayton slowly and methodically put down the first aid kit. He could not discipline his son with Nicole around, so he had to maintain a decent smile.

However, there was no trace of warmth in his smile.

He withdrew his gaze, looked at Nicole, and explained patiently, "That’s impossible. My family doctor in Liberty was a very lazy person, so I had no choice but t o learn first-aid knowledge by myself."

Nicole smiled faintly, her attitude was polite and slightly detached.

"It's really fine. It doesn't hurt anymore. This ointment is very effective..."

Clayton stiffened and lowered his head, seemingly at a loss. When he looked up again, his eyes were modest and light again.

He picked up the ointment as if nothing happened. " I'll go get you a new one later.”

"It looks like you're very well prepared, Mr. Sloan."

"I have a child, so I have to be prepared at all times."

Saying that, he gave Lil Michael a meaningful look.

Lil Michael stuck his tongue out and hid behind Nicole.

He was not to blame. He noticed his father’s attitude that did not harbor good intentions towards his Pretty Lady. If this continued, he would have a stepmother soon!

After dinner, Nicole said her goodbyes.

Clayton personally sent her back to Stanton Mansion, and thoughtfully stopped not far away.

The night was cool and still. The streetlights stretched their shadows.

Clayton said, "Don't worry about the public opinion and the stock market. Nothing will happen until the case is investigated clearly."

Nicole said, "Thank you." "You've already thanked me many times."

Nicole looked at him. "Mr. Sloan, there's a piece of land in the Capital. Are you interested?"

Clayton looked at her with deep eyes, his gaze faintly stiffening. "What do you mean?"

Then, she turned off her phone and got ready for bed.

The next day.

Nicole got up early in the morning and went to the office. She was still worried about the cause of the autopilot car accident. She had to solve it as soon as possible.

The person that J&L Corporation sent to Europe was Molly Stewart, which made Nicole feel a lot more at ease because Molly was an expert.

Insider news from Europe came, saying that they were beginning to evaluate whether the Al chip should be withdrawn from the market.

The case became more urgent, and time was of the essence.

On the day of the video conference, both Nicole and Eric participated.

In the conference room with a wide field of view, Nicole looked at the demonstration on the big screen.

The air conditioning was set to a low temperature, so i t was a little cold. Eric saw that she was only wearing a thin dress, so he took off his suit jacket and walked over.

Nicole did not even move as she said indifferently, "I don’t want it. Save it."

Eric and the others in the meeting room were speechless.
