Nicole hooked her lips.
âWorried about me? In what way? Do you really think Iâll hide a man here?â
Clayton laughed. âIâm worried that youâll be fighting alone. I somehow feel that this problem with the
Sand City project is a trap.â
He developed a keen intuition after so many years of experience.
Just like how he knew that Isaac Sloan wanted to make a move on him before Isaac did anything.
Nicoleâs smile faded. She lowered her eyes without speaking.
Clayton looked at her eyebrows. Although she had a good appetite, the darkness in her eyes could not
be concealed.
These days, Nicole must have had a bad time. Clayton spoke in a deep and gentle voice. âYouâve made
progress?â
Nicole paused for a moment. She looked at him with a deep gaze and a playful smile.
âYeah, and itâs even related to youâ¦â
Clayton froze for a moment and wrinkled his brows. He waited for her explanation. However, before
she could say anything, there was a knock on the door. âPresident, itâs me.â
It was Loganâs voice.
Nicole smiled, stood up, and went to open the door.
Logan came in with a stack of information. When he saw that Clayton was also there, he froze for a
moment and nodded politely. âMr. Sloan.â Clayton responded with a smile. âLogan, youâve worked
hard.â Logan did not exchange pleasantries and handed over the materials in his hand to Nicole.
âThese are the things you asked me to check yesterday.â
Nicole took the kraft paper envelope and did not open it. Instead, she casually threw it on the table next
to her. âJust tell me straight.â
She did not want to read those dense words. It was too cumbersome.
Logan looked at Clayton and was somewhat hesitant. He stammered and did not know where to start.
Clayton stood up at this moment and straightened his clothes. âDo you mind if I visit your room?â Nicole
shrugged. Of course, she had no problems with that. After all, they were dating, and Clayton liked to
play the role of the househusband. Once Clayton entered the room, Logan did not feel so much
pressure anymore and looked at Nicole. He spoke very fast. âPresident, as soon as Autumn Ferguson
returned to Mediania, she started to intern at Thousand Nights, a small
company that Ferguson Corporation has some shares in. It seems like Ferguson Corporation intends to
acquire this company. Autumn was hired through proper procedures and job applications, but she didnât
hide her relationship with the Ferguson family, so that companyâs staff is aware of Autumnâs special
status. Now, the boss of that company is in an awkward situation because it looks as if he calls the
shots, but in fact, he looks at Autumnâs mood to do things. Your guess is right. That reporter is likely to
be hidden by this company. Thatâs because when I checked the reporterâs receipts before he
disappeared, he was in the cafe next to that office.â Nicole listened in silence, with a cold smile hanging
at the corners of her lips.
Logan paused and could not help but ask her.
âHow do you know that Autumn Ferguson is suspicious?â
Nicole curved her lips and could not help but laugh out loud. She looked in the direction of her
bedroom.
âBecause⦠She was so eager to make a deal with me that she actually showed her cards to me
unprepared, trying to get me to follow her plan. Thatâs how I saw through her.â
Otherwise, how could Nicole find a lead so quickly?
Logan was puzzled. âMake a deal with you? What are her conditions?â
Nicole lifted her chin and pointed in the direction of the bedroom.
âSell him to her.â Logan was speechless.
Nicole laughed. The person in the bedroom felt like they were talking about him, so he walked out.
Clayton took off his jacket and walked over with a slight frown, not taking the initiative to speak.
Logan said, âThen Iâll go and get the car ready?â Nicole nodded.
As soon as Logan left, Clayton could not ho Id back and asked Nicole.
âSell who to whom?â
