“What?”
Kai was shocked.
“I don’t have a room for you in this suite. You can ask the butler to get a room for you.”
Kai stretched out his hand helplessly.
“I don’t have an invitation, so I won’t be able to get a room upstairs. I don’t want to stay downstairs because there are too many people. Also, I have to protect you and Chatty. What if bad guys break-in in the middle of the night and hurt you two?”
He had such a high-sounding excuse.
Nicole laughed with glimmering eyes.
“Third Brother, I really admire your thick-skinned personality!”
Kai rolled his eyes. “I’ll stay with Chatty then. She’s still young anyway, so she can sleep in a crib. I’ll sleep on her big bed!”
As he said that, he was about to occupy Chatty’s room.
Nicole was helpless. “Nevermind. You can go to the guest room. I’m trying to get her to cultivate a habit of sleeping independently, so I won’t let you ruin her progress.”
Kai smiled triumphantly.
“Okay!”
He was satisfied and went to tidy up his room.
Even the guest bedroom in the upstairs suite had nice scenery.
Moreover, the suite was luxuriously decorated, and the rooms downstairs could not compare to the suite.
Besides, Floyd instructed Kai not to leave Nicole’s room at night.
Kai had to watch Nicole fall asleep before he could take a nap.
He had to listen to his father.
Roland went out.
He wanted to take the elevator downstairs, but when he went to the elevator, he suddenly saw a man in a wheelchair.
Roland froze for a moment and clenched his fists tightly.
He was excited.
Once that idea was born, Roland felt that Chatty’s intuition might not be wrong.
He took a step forward and looked at Jeff nervously and carefully.
“Mr. Sloan… Are you Mr. Sloan?”
Jeff’s eyes were dark. He looked at Roland for more than ten seconds and slowly curled his lips.
No one noticed that his hands that were holding the handle of the wheelchair turned slightly white.
Jeff smiled and showed an unfamiliar smile.
“Mr. Sloan? I don’t understand.”
Roland frowned. His face changed.
“But if you’re not Mr. Sloan, how would you know my identity?”
Roland stared closely at the person in front of him and tried to find a flaw in his expression.
He wanted to prove his inference.
However, Jeff always looked dull, sick, and pale.
There was a gloom in his eyes that made him look completely different from Clayton.
“Your identity? I don’t know much. Before I met you, I was with Ms. Stanton to inspect the project. She mentioned that she brought her daughter and her assistant. The only child on this cruise ship is Ms. Stanton’s daughter, and since you were by the child’s side, I assumed that you’re Ms. Stanton’s assistant.”
Jeff seemed to be testing Roland.
Roland also noticed it and pursed his lips.
“Oh, so Ms. Stanton told you…”
Roland murmured with disappointment.
Jeff smiled and continued to speak calmly.
“By the way, I’d like to ask what’s Ms. Stanton’s next itinerary. Is she interested in this project?”
Roland instantly became vigilant.
“You’re inquiring about my boss?”
The professional habit that he built up over the years made him come to his senses immediately.
Jeff smiled faintly. “If I have any cooperation with Ms. Stanton in the future, I won’t treat you badly.”
“Thanks, but Ms. Stanton treats me well, so you don’t need to worry about it.”’
