"It’s because you haven't had anything to drink for too long..."
Nicole put the water back and felt some heartache when she looked at Clayton's thin face.
"My dad asked the butler to prepare a nutritious meal for you. The doctor said that you’ll have another examination tomorrow. If there’s no problem, then you can eat normally. If you have something you want to eat, feel free to tell me."
Nicole paused before suddenly remembering something. "I haven’t talked to your subordinates yet. Do you want to call them and arrange your company affairs first?"
Although Clayton’s roots here were not deep, everything that was needed was here. His capital was strong, and Atlanta’s business circle gained an additional bigwig like Clayton overnight.
No one dared to underestimate him.
Clayton frowned. "No need. Roland will take care of everything."
Nicole raised her brows at how capable his assistant was. "Do you trust him that much?"
Clayton laughed. "I only disappeared for a few days. If the company collapses because of that, it’ll be because of my incompetence. They need times like this to train themselves."
Nicole thought about it. Clayton's resolution and skills were unexpectedly much more decisive than she thought.
In the end, he was not afraid of failure. Otherwise, he would not be so relaxed.
She smiled. "Good, then you just need to focus on recuperating."
Nicole sat to the side and held her face in her hands a s she looked at him with a smile in the corner of her eyes.
Nicole still felt happy seeing that he could sit here and talk to her now, even if all he said were words that made her angry.
Clayton was also happy and found a random conversation.
"Were you very worried these days? Was it Grant who brought us back?"
Nicole nodded. "He brought us back in secret.
Everyone present thought we were dead. The angle you jumped from the building with me was too elusive. No one noticed that place."
Clayton chuckled in a low voice. "Looks like I was lucky."
