Clayton smiled.

“Don’t worry. I won’t be that stupid.” He went downstairs.

Clayton saw that the butler was asking the servants to set the table.

“Clayton, have dinner before you leave.” Floyd spoke from the living room.

Kai narrowed his eyes. “You’re finally willing to leave?”

A pillow was thrown at Kai’s head, followed by a warning look.

Kai closed his mouth.

Clayton smiled. “I’m relieved that Nicole is fine. I still have some things to take care of.”

Floyd nodded. “Alright.”

Clayton said, “I’ll take my leave.”

Floyd paused. “Clayton, Nicole’s incident has nothing to do with you, so don’t blame yourself. We know

how you feel about Nicole. As long as she’s doing well, we won’t care about anything else.”

Clayton’s expression changed a few times. He could hear the meaning of Floyd’s words.

The corners of his lips curled up, and Clayton nodded slightly before silently lifting his feet to leave.

Kai narrowed his eyes. “You really don’t care?” Floyd looked at Kai.

Without speaking, Floyd went to the table and prepared to eat. Maverick stood up like a shadow from a

chair not far away.

He stretched. “Compared to Eric in the past, Clayton is so much better. A t least Nicole doesn’t have to

chase after him. He’s the one who runs after Nicole…” Maverick finished speaking and went over to the

table.

Kai suddenly understood.

Sure enough, Maverick was a genius.

Even his understanding of life was more thorough than Kai’s. “But, Mav, why did you suddenly come

back? Doesn’t your research institute only give you time off at the end of the year?” Kai questioned.

Maverick pushed his gold-framed glasses and spoke calmly. ”I’m preparing to get married.”

Floyd and Kai froze at the same time. They looked at Maverick in shock.

Maverick spoke calmly.

“Molly’s family is even more anxious. Her mother feels that Molly’s luck will turn very bad if she doesn’t

get married this year.” Kai shrugged. “So? You believe that kind of nonsense? That’s obviously forced

marriage!”

Floyd kicked Kai fiercely from under the table. Kai really had no filter to his mouth. Maverick raised his

eyes. His gaze flickered for a moment. The corners of his lips curled into a smile. “I believe it.”

Kai was stunned. “You’re a scientist…”

“So what? Anyway, I already decided. We’ll get our marriage license first and have our wedding when

we get time off.” Floyd nodded. “Do you want me to talk to Molly’s parents and set a date first? I should

take the initiative to ask them out for a meal!” Maverick said, “I’ll set the time. You all just have to show

up.”

Kai’s mouth twitched. “You arranged everything yourself. Are you treating us like tools?”

Maverick glanced at him. “You got a problem with that?” Kai looked at his eyes and froze. “Nope.”

“Good.”

Floyd was very insistent in wanting to get involved, but Maverick did not want Floyd to step up with

great fanfare.

The reason was probably that Molly’s father was old- fashioned and did not want his daughter to be

suspected of being a “gold digger”.

Thus, their family claimed to others that Molly’s boyfriend was just an ordinary engineer.

Nicole was very excited when she found out about this matter and announced that she had to be part

of the planning for their wedding. Maverick strongly refused.

Nicole suffered several blows and finally stopped persistently looking for abuse.

At night.

Nicole hugged her pillow and was sitting with Floyd in the living room. They had a video call with Grant.

Jacob was also there. He obviously froze for a moment when he saw Nicole.

“Ms. Stanton…”

Jacob’s voice started to choke up.
