Nicole paused and nodded. "Yes, it was him."
After all, only Clayton mentioned that speculation before.
Unexpectedly, the Stanton family found out this secret as well.
Her heart felt like it was being weighed down by a boulder.
Nicole was not that happy.
She only found it ridiculous.
The Sloan family was such a powerful family, and they had many close political and business relations o n the surface. They looked spick and shiny, but in reality, they were so dirty and nasty.
It was no wonder Quavon was so worried about Isaac’s disappearance!
Kai said, "They went from brothers to being father and son? Isn’t that relationship too messy? His father won’t pop out of his grave to hit them, right?"
Julie quietly tugged Kai's shirt.
"That’s not the point. With this fact, there’s finally a reason as to why the Sloan family rejects Clayton so much."
Isaac was afraid that there would be another person to compete with him for the family fortune.
Isaac knew about this long ago.
Kai nodded and bragged seriously. "Julie, you're the smartest!"
Everyone was speechless.
Was everyone else dumb then?
Floyd stayed silent and did not say anything.
Nicole looked at his face and lowered her eyes slightly.
She could vaguely guess what he was thinking.
Was he worried that she would be dragged into Clayton's matter?
Nicole could not say with certainty that it would not happen, but she would try her best to stay out of it as much as possible.
Julie stood up and pulled Kai's hand.
"Kai, weren't you going to show me your collection of autographed photos of the big shots in the circle?"
Kai suddenly stood up. His eyes lit up.
"That's right, it’s the collection of the century. I'll give i t to you if you marry me!"
Julie laughed. "I don't want it. I’ll just look at it."
Kai brought her upstairs in disappointment.
