Chapter 534

Hard to Chase

Nicole curled her lips, and she inadvertently retracted her hand, “It doesn’t hurt anymore.”

She looked at Clayton, whose face was tinged with slight anger, and the conflict in her heart
disappeared.



Lil Michael reminded Nicole that Clayton was an exceptional man, so there must be countless people
who would surround him. Nicole did not know anything ant him except for his deceased ex-wiA blank

How could she think of him sheet of paper?



Nicole returned to b enses in time, never dragging feet.

Clayton and methodically put down the Mist aid kit. He could not discipline his son with Nicole around, so
h e had to maintain a decent smile,



However, there was no trace of warmth in his smile.

He withdrew his gaze, looked at Nicole, and explained patiently, “That’s impossible. My family
doctor in Liberty



was a very lary person, so I had no choice but to learn first-aid knowledge by

Nicole smiled faintly, her attitude was polite and slightly detached.

“It’s really fine. It doesn’t hurt anymore. This ointment is very effective…”

Clayton stiffened and lowered his head, seemingly at a loss. When he looked up again, his eyes were
modest and light again

He picked up the ointment of nothing happened. “I’ll go get yok View one later.”

It looks like yone very well prepared, M I. Sloan.”

I have a Gild, so I have to be prepared at all times.”

Saying that, he gave Lil Michael a meaningful look.

Lil Michael stuck his tongue out and hid behind Nicole

He was not to blame. He noticed his father’s attitude that did not harbor good

intentions towards his Pretty Lady. If this continued, he would have a stepmother Sokon!

After dinner, Nicole said her goodbyes.

Clayton personally sent her back to Stanton Mansion, and thoughtfully stopped not far away.

The night was cool and still. The streetlights stretched their shadows.

Clayton said, “Don’t worry about public opinion and the stockN et. Nothing will happen unti case is
irivestigated clearly.

Nicole said, ‘The



you.”

“You’ve any thanked me many times.”

Nicole looked at him. “Mr. Sloan, there’s a piece of land in the Capital. Are you interested?!

Clayton looked at her with deep eyes, his gaze faintly stiffening “What do you mean?”

As repayment.”

A repayment that drew a clear line between them.

Clayton was stunned for a few seconds before slowly exhaling

*Ms. Stanton, it’s so hard to chase you…”

Nicole raised her eyes to meet his gaze. He smiled, his temperament seemed to meld into the darkness,
and his voice was firm.

“Forget the land. I think that such a beautiful night is much more noteworthy.”

After Clayton left, Nicole wa Nyack inside Her mood gradually ched down until not a ripple was left

She took off

Nicole picked it up

Clayton: [It’s very hard to chase you, but it’s even harder not to. Sweet dreams.]

Nicole looked at it but did not respond.



The other one was from Eric. [Nicole, there’s a package for you at home. Shall I

Nicole casually replied. [Na ne. Throw it

Then, she turned off her phone and got ready for bed.

The next day.

Nicole got up early in the morning and went to the office. She was still worried about the cause of the
autopilar accident. She had to solve soon as possible.

The person that corporation sent to Europe was N y Stewart, which made Nicole feel it more at ease
because Molly an expert

Insider news from Europe came, saying that they were beginning to evaluate whether the AI chip should
be withdrawn from the market.

The case became more urgent, and time was of the essence.

On the day of the video conference, both Nicole and Eric participated.

In the conference room with a wide field o f view, Nicole looked at the demonstration on the big screen.

The air conditioning was set to low temperature, so it was axie cold. Eric saw that she was only weying a
thin dress, so he took is suit jacket and walked over.

Nicole did even move as she said indifferently, “I don’t want it. Save it.”

Eric and the others in the meeting room were speechless.
