After a while, Nicole finally got her wish and managed to hug Chatty's soft body.
Her heart instantly melted.
Chatty generously gave her a slobbery kiss, which made Nicole feel like laughing and crying.
After all, she should not feel disgusted with her own daughter.
During the meal, Tigger played with Chatty.
They were not at all worried because Tigger would always stand behind Chatty and act as a pillow when Chatty was about to fall.
Tigger, the stupid tiger, thought that Chatty was teasing him, so he ran around endlessly with a small toy in his mouth, trying to make Chatty crawl and chase after him.
After the meal, Floyd summoned Clayton to the study for a chat.
Grant did not join them. Instead, he took Aida with him to pick up Levi from school.
Kai leaned over to Nicole and said, "Did you really go to Yvette's place yesterday? Why didn't I see you on Yvette's social media then?"
If Nicole was there, Yvette would not have let her out.
Nicole's heart clenched, and she glared at Kai.
"We did it on purpose."
Kai paused for a while. "Did Julie go too? I didn't get to talk to her last night...”
Nicole was dumbfounded.
She chuckled lightly.
"You quarreled again?"
Kai stretched out his hand and made an "X".
"No, quarreling is just a means of cultivating feelings. It's not called quarreling between me and Julie. It's called enhancing our feelings!"
Nicole looked at Kai seriously babbling away and wanted to change the topic.
"Don’t worry about our business."
Kai wanted to probe further, but Clayton walked over.
"I have something urgent to settle in the office. Do you want to come with me first before we head home?"
Of course, Nicole agreed. If she stayed here under Kai's interrogation, she would be exposed sooner or later.
Nicole stood up immediately. Chatty sensed that her parents were leaving, so she quickly hugged Clayton's leg.
Clayton looked down. His heart melted when he saw her face and picked her up.
"Do you want to come home and stay with Daddy for a few days? But we can't disturb Mommy’s rest..."
Chatty nodded knowingly ?d#:RLY> hugged Clayton's neck happily, not wanting to let go.
Nicole went over and took her bag that had Chatty's daily necessities.
Floyd frowned.
"You can bring Chatty home tomorrow. It’s getting late today..."
Nicole knew that Floyd was reluctant to part with Chatty, but mainly, he also wanted to give Nicole and Clayton some time alone.
"It’s okay, we have a nanny at home to take care of Chatty."
They merged their apartment. The upper two floors were originally Clayton's apartment, and the lower two floors were Nicole’s.
Now they occupied all four floors, so it was very spacious, quiet, and comfortable.
The nanny lived on the second floor with Chatty, while Nicole and Clayton lived on the third floor. A professional interior designer readjusted the interior furniture and decoration, which made their current apartment very bright and cozy. It was much more comfortable than a regular villa.
On the way home, Clayton called the nanny to inform her so that she could be prepared to welcome Chatty.
Nicole sat in the back and stroked Chatty’s hair. Chatty's facial features were becoming more and more beautiful, and her crystal clear eyes were her prettiest features.
Chatty was like a little worm with no bones when she acted like a spoiled child and would be reluctant to part from her.
Nicole noticed that Clayton was not driving in the direction of the office, so she was stunned for a moment.
"Isn't there something urgent at the office?"
Clayton smiled in the front seat. His slender and clean hands were on the steering wheel, which contrasted with his skin color. His fingers were long and well-defined, like a work of art.
"It's just a small matter. If I don't say that, we probably have to spend the night at the mansion. I want to spend time with you today. Don't you miss me?"
Clayton's straightforwardness made Nicole blush in an instant.
He was not restrained at all.
