Chapter 1409 of The Divorced Billionaire Heiress-By I Wanna Eat Meat
When Claire finished speaking, her face was already red to the point where it looked like it would
explode.
Claire was completely humiliated in front of the crowd.
Mrs. Carter did not show her any mercy and smiled at Nicole.
âNicole, for my sake, tell your boyfriend not to get angry. Just think of it as a joke. We welcome you to
this birthday banquet. Donât spoil your good mood.â
Nicole glanced at Mrs. Carter. There was no hint of reluctance on her face, and she did not care about
Claireâs reputation at all.
If Mrs. Carter could say such smooth words, it meant that she knew which was more important.
Since Claire already apologized, Nicole did not want to continue making a fuss.
She looked at Clayton. âAre you satisfied with this outcome?â
Clayton raised his brows. âQuite.â
He did not care about her apology. What made him happiest was that Nicole always stood up for him.
She did not care even if it was her friendâs relative.
It meant that in her heart, Clayton was worth more.
Nicole smiled. âThatâs good. In that case, Iâll just let the matter rest. Mrs. Levine, make sure to watch
yourself in the future.â
Her final words were very unruly. Claire was furious.
However, Claire could not express her feelings. She could not afford to offend Nicole.
The last time Nicole helped the Carter family, Old Master Carter clearly said that they had to give way
to the Stanton family in the future. They had to remember the Stanton familyâs grace for life.
Nicole stopped paying attention to them and held Claytonâs arm with a smile.
âLetâs go. Iâll bring you to Grandpa Carter.â Clayton smiled and nodded.
The backs of the two departing people were extraordinarily well-matched.
Claire glared indignantly and was seen clearly by Julie.
She smiled meaningfully.
Mrs. Carter breathed a sigh of relief and glared at Ian. âWas it fun watching the show?â Ian smiled
casually. â I can only watch the show. If I get involved, itâll make it seem like the Carter family is bullying
others.â He walked over with a smile and squeezed Mrs. Carterâs shoulders, âAunt Claire only
apologized, and she was the only one humiliated. Fortunately, the Carter familyâs reputation is still
intact!â Mrs. Carter looked at Ian with an unpleasant expression. âIan, youâ¦â
Ian glanced at her and spoke with a vague smile. âAunt Claire, you deserved this. Do you know who
that man is? Heâs not just Nicoleâ s boyfriend. Heâs also the only person who can go against Eric
Ferguson. His name is Clayton Sloan, but not many people know about his background. Do you know
how many strings my grandfather pulled to be able to invite him over?â
Claireâs face slowly grew pale.
âWhat? Why didnât you say so earlier?â
Mrs. Carter also looked at him in shock. âYes, why didnât you say that sooner?â
Ian withdrew his hand and stood there. His lips curled in a cold and willful smile.
â If I had said it sooner, you wouldnât have framed him but have framed someone else instead, right?
Thatâs such a disgusting move, but you actually played that trick during my grandfatherâs birthday
banquet. Auntie, whatâs going on in that mind of yours? I think from now on, you shouldnât show your
face in events hosted by the Carter family, lest you drag our family into your mess.â
After Ian finished speaking, he gave Claire a cold look and walked away.
Claireâs face turned from red to white. It was quite
wonderful.
âWhat⦠What was that supposed to mean? How could he say that to me?â
Mrs. Carter swallowed back the words she wanted to scold Ian with and looked at Claire.
It seemed like what Ian said made some sense.
Mrs. Carter had always tolerated her bratty sister and had been used to it.
However, it seemed like Claire was not just bratty and willful today.
Was Claire so vile that even Ian could not stand it anymore?
