Nicole reached out, wanting to do it herself. Beside her, Clayton quietly walked over. âLet me.â His face
was as gentle as usual.
However, Nicole did not feel the slightest warmth.
She subconsciously dodged, and Molly did not let go either. âIâll do it instead. Iâm more experienced in
drying hair!â Clayton was speechless.
Ten minutes later.
When Nicoleâs hair was dry, Yannick walked in. âMs. Stanton, please come again anytimeâ¦â
Nicole smiled. âMy friend has an annual card here. Please look after her.â
âOf course, of course.â
The beads of sweat on Yannickâs head were as large as beans, but he still endured the pain and smiled.
How dedicated.
Nicole said, âGo see a doctor. A dislocation will heal with around two days of rest.â
Yannickâs face stiffened as his smile became slightly guilty.
He had been thinking about going easy on her, but he ended up having his arm dislocated by the
delicate young lady.
That was so embarrassing!
The three people left the place. Claytonâs eyes darkened when he saw that her expression was off. He
pulled open the car door. Nicole paused. âI need to send Molly back to the office. You should go back to
work, Mr. Sloan.â Clayton froze. He was not stupid, so he could feel the sudden alienation from Nicole.
Molly happily got into Nicoleâs car.
She matched Nicoleâs rhythm.
Claytonâs expression changed slightly. âAre you angry?â Nicole raised her eyes. She was not angry. Why
would she be angry because Clayton deliberately targeted Eric? Logically, she should be on Claytonâs
side.
They had more common interests.
However, she admitted that she felt very uncomfortable.
She smiled. âWhy should I be angry?â
âBecause I deliberately let Mr. Ferguson misunderstand our relationship.â Clayton spoke bluntly.
Did that not mean that Nicole was still hung up about Eric?
Was that not why Nicole got angry when Clayton deliberately led Eric to misunderstand?
Why would she care about that if she did not like him?
Nicoleâs smile was slightly cold.
âMr. Sloan, Eric and I are something of the past. Thereâs no need for others to verify anything. Iâm
uncomfortable because youâre using me to provoke him.â
She was not dumb. It was not like she could not tell.
If it were just a contest between their relationships, Clayton would not disregard her feelings. It was
because he was taking revenge.
Well, no matter how perfect a person was, he was still a human. He had selfishness and could feel both
happiness and anger. Claytonâs heart still bore grudges against Eric for using public opinion to attack him
back then. He was just looking for an opportunity.
However, no matter how he searched, Ericâs only weak point was Nicole. Clayton thought that Nicole
would not be able to tell. He thought that Nicole would play along with him.
However, she was too sharp. She saw through the little selfishness in his heart.
Claytonâs expression was complicated, and he did not know what to say for a while.
The next second, Nicole smiled sincerely and naturally. She relieved his embarrassment.
âItâs fine. Weâve known each other for so long, so itâs natural that we use each other. How could I forget
that youâve always helped me?â
Clayton suddenly looked up. Nicoleâs smile was bright and perfect, and he could not see any anger from
her expression at all.
Her tone was gentle, and her eyes were sincere. âDonât take it to heart. Eric isnât my limit. Goodbye, Mr.
Sloan.â
Clayton visibly froze, his dark eyes gazing deeply at her back.
Eric was not her limit, but it meant that he had tried to cross her limit.
She was too sman:.
Clayton instantly regretted that he overstepped his boundaries.
It was not easy to gain a little trust from her, but he wore it away so easily.
Clayton clenched his fingers until his knuckles turned white, and his expression also sank.
