Chapter 1071

Piss Him Off

Nicole walked over. Someone immediately went over to open the car door.

Clayton sat inside and smiled at her.

“Ms. Stanton, you’re so pretty today.”

Nicole smiled and stroked her hair by her ear.

“Mr. Sloan, I’ve heard this kind of praise so much until my ears get calluses.”

Clayton froze for a moment, then his smile deepened.

“It’s only right for you to get calluses from hearing this. After all, what I said comes from the heart.”

Nicole rolled her eyes at him. ‘Clayton’s slick tongue must be his natural ability. I really can’t beat him in
this aspect.”

The driver hurriedly got into the car with his head bowed and tried to minimize his

presence.

Soon, they arrived at the venue.

Clayton got out to open the door for Nicole.

Once they were inside, many people came up to exchange pleasantries.

Nicole chatted for a while and found an excuse to get out, then ran away by herself to sit o n the sofa
and breathed a sigh of relief.



In less than a minute, a tall figure stood behind her and smiled playfully.

“Did you just leave me behind like that?”

Clayton was amused and annoyed. ‘She actually found an excuse herself and walked away

Nicole paused. She forgot about Clayton and thought that she came with Grant or Kai.

She smiled sheepishly.

“Sorry, it’s a habit. I forgot for a moment.”

Clayton laughed helplessly.

Not far away, Keith saw this scene as soon as he came in and immediately wanted to cover his eyes.

‘How could Nicole smile so brightly at another man? Isn’t this a deliberate attempt to make Eric sad?’

Eric then followed Keith in and also saw this scene.

His face instantly turned cold and glum.

Keith laughed. “Hey, she’s just blinded by the freshness of the moment. Don’t take it to heart!”

Eric’s gaze was cold as he stared at them for a few seconds and looked away, then strodet o the other
side.

Keith immediately sighed with relief.

The organizer spoke from above.

“Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to tonight’s dinner. In fact, this is a dinner to welcome my friend who
came from Liberty. Please welcome the Chairman of Sloan Corporation, Quavon Sloan!”



Nicole heard this and shifted her gaze.

A refined and elegant feeble old man slowly walked out stiffly, looking sickly pale, but with an energetic
face.

As soon as Clayton saw that man, Clayton narrowed his eyes. The mild expression on his face instantly
turned gloomy.

Nicole blinked. No matter how slow she was, she could feel that Clayton’s bad mood came from this
nominal father.
