Kira’s smile stiffened, but she did not reveal anything.
When Hamilton went outside, he saw that Nicole was still there.
She stood by the car and looked like she was in a trance.
Hamilton walked over. “President, you didn’t eat much earlier. Why don’t we eat somewhere else?”
Nicole raised her chin and gestured arrogantly for him to open the door.
Hamilton was speechless as he thought, ‘Was she waiting for me to open the car door for her all this time? She’s such a princess! No wonder she’s never satisfied with the coffee I make!’
He opened the door for her.
Nicole got into the car and said, “Let’s go back to the office.”
Hamilton sat in the passenger seat and looked back at her hesitantly.
“President, did I really eat a fly just now?”
Nicole did not even lift her eyelids.
“What do you think?”
Hamilton hesitated. Although he did not eat much earlier, he no longer had an appetite.
Nicole held the phone and was contemplating calling Camille.
Camille might know whether Clayton was back in Mediania.
Nicole thought about it, but since Clayton left LJ Corporation, even Camille did not know of his whereabouts, so why would Clayton update Camille later?
Jeff Lieberman and Clayton Sloan.
He still did not admit his true identity at the last moment.
However, Nicole could vaguely feel that he was safe even though she did not know where he was.
Nicole looked at the passing scenery outside the window and felt dispirited for a while.
What identity would he use to come back?
Would he return to her?
Or was she just thinking too much and being delusional?
When Nicole arrived at Stanton Corporation, Grant happened to be rushing out.
Nicole was a little surprised and asked, “Big Brother, where are you going?”
Grant did not have time to elaborate and briefly said, “Your sister-in-law is about to go into labor, so I have to go to the hospital.”
Nicole’s expression changed slightly. She immediately turned back and followed him.
“I’ll go with you.”
Grant did not refuse. He looked serious, and his face was tense.
Nicole took a deep breath. “Don’t worry. I’ll notify the hospital first, then I’ll tell Dad and the others. I’ll get Logan to pick up the kids later.”
Grant nodded. He was so anxious that he could not think thoroughly.
Nicole called the hospital to inquire about the situation before she called Floyd and Kai.
After everything was arranged, Nicole turned to look at Grant.
“Isn’t Aida’s due date a month away?”
Grant nodded with a pale face.
Although this was Aida’s second pregnancy, Grant was still very worried about her.
“I think she accidentally fell down the stairs when I was on a call with her. I don’t know the full situation yet. What did the doctor say?”
“The doctor said that he gave her an injection and that she’ll most likely give birth today.”
Grant acted calm, but sweat was dripping from his forehead, which showed how anxious and panicked he was.
The driver sped to the hospital.
When they arrived, Grant pushed the door open and got out of the car. Nicole followed suit.
However, when she got on the elevator, she suddenly saw a familiar figure walking past the other end of the long corridor.
The man was limping with a cane, and his side profile resembled Clayton’s.
He looked handsome and indifferent.
It was Jeff or Clayton.
Nicole’s expression changed dramatically.
She had a feeling that he was back.
Nicole was about to go out of the elevator, but some people squeezed inside, and the elevator doors closed.
That silhouette also disappeared.
Nicole’s heart trembled slightly, and her breathing became a little rushed.
