Chapter 548

He‘s Jealous

Clayton did not talor Floyd’s words to heart.

He swept a glance at Nicole with a gentle size and continued to answer Floyd’s question



Floyd said, “Since you’re friends with Nicole, you can scout around for a suitable partner for her. I can’t
be assured if she stays single forever.”

He laughed heartily, but even Grant’s fingers froze for a momen!



Grant slowly pickexiai a slice of fish with his fork and savoxed it without a word.



Clayton laughed naturally, “Ms. Stanton’s an excellent lady, so she’s not short of admirers, but those who
can match Ms. Stanton are very rare. I see that Ms. Stanton enjoys her life with her family. Chairman
Stanton, you must’ve treated her like a princess, so no one can be as attentive to her as her family.”

Floyd raised his eyebrows and wholeheartedly agreed with Clayton’s words.



He was extremely delighted with what

Floyd rhoddod reputedly. “Yes, that’s irue. Our whole family lets Nicole get her way. We’re happy when
she’s happy.”



This statement undoubtedly hinted at Nicole’s steady position as the heir of Stanton Corporation

Grant did not even raise his head and did not care about this matter

Nicole also did not bother and concentrated on cating the fish

They were really siblings because the way they ate was the sanie.

The cordial and relaxed atmosphere between the Stantons was so different from ordinary affluent
families. There was a very rare harmony and beauty to it.

Clayton lowered his eyes and smiled, then continued to converse with Floyd.

Eric Ferguson was sitting in his car at Stanton Corporation’s entrance. He had been waiting to meet
Nicole

Not long after, he received a message from Keith

It was a picture of Floryd, Grant, and Nicole having dinner with Clayton Sloan.

The scene was surprisingly cheerful and relaxe

Floyd, as an elder, had a smile that did not hide his fondness for Clayton

They really looked so harmonious together.

[Keith Ludwig Ferk, he’s alrdy meeting the parents, but you’re stiil in the same spot. Why don’t I introduce
you to other women?)

Meet the parents?’ Eric’s face instantly turned gloomy. His hands that were on the steering wheel
clenched tightly.

His expression was very cold.



At that moment, anger and jealousy intertwined and surged in his heart, which almost made him lose
control. He wanted to go over and snatch Nicole away.

His heart suddenly jumped, and he had

the idea of keeping her hidden just for himself.

Otherwise, the other men by her side were just an eyesore to him.

Even after pretending to be a gentleman for so long, there was no way that a wolfi n sheep’s clothing
could actually become a gentle sheep

Eric’s wolfish mature did not allow him to sit back and watch.

Toto’s lapdog approach was completely useless on Nicole i: Eric continued that act, Nicole might just get
a marriage license with someone else without his knowledge

No, I can’t wait any longer!”

Eric sent a text message to Nicole and went to wait for her at her apartment.

He knew that she would come.

After Nicole was done with dinner, she glanced at her phone and saw a text message from Eric
Ferguson an hour ago.

[You left your flash drive in Imperial Gardens. I’m waiting for you at your

Nicole pondered suspiciously. “Did I leave my flash drive behind? How come I didn’t notice before?

Thinking that there was probably some sensitive company information in there, she did not want it to be
in the hands of outsiders.



Nicole bid goodbye to the rest and left early

Even though she had not been to her apartment in a long time, a cleaner would come over every day to
make sure that everything was in order.

What the hell is Eric up to? Why did he have to meet here?’

After entering her neighborhood, Nicole wawa familiar Range Rover parked downstairs from a distance.
The headlights flashed and a slender arm was casually leaning out the car window with a lit cigarette in
between his fingers.

She recognized that it was Eric.

His side profile was cold, and his temperament was somewhat casual and __unrestrained

The car was parked in the empty space next to her.

Wher Nicole took the gift that Lil Michael gave her and got out of her car, she was pulled into a cold
embrace from behind. Eric’s tobacco scent and aggressiveness made Nicole’s body stiffen.
