Nicole was finishing up her work. She smiled and said, “I don’t have any objections, but the two kids are more obedient there. They don’t skip school anymore, and they finish all their homework. It looks like Levi is doing a good job teaching them.”
Clayton nodded in agreement. “Little Leaf has always been a good boy.”
He walked over and took her coat. Nicole opened her arms naturally.
Clayton did not mind the trouble. He put on her coat gently and gently fixed her hair.
His fingertips touched the back of her ears, which made her shudder.
The tips of her ears reddened as she was sensitive there, but her face remained calm.
However, Clayton noticed her changes.
He let out a low chuckle behind her and pinched her red earlobe as he said with a smile, “What are you thinking about? Why are you blushing?”
His playful words made Nicole’s face blush even more as if she was thinking dirty thoughts.
However, Nicole felt that he was the one who wanted to seduce her first.
Clayton once again occupied the moral high ground.
Nicole deliberately looked back at him, pinched his face, and said with a smile, “Anyway, I’m not thinking about you.”
Clayton’s smile faded. Just as Nicole was about to leave, he pulled her back. The distance between them was so close that they could smell the shower gel and shampoo that they shared.
Their breaths intertwined in the dark, and their emotions were infinitely magnified.
“You’d better make it clear. Who were you thinking about?”
His voice was low and gentle with a coaxing and warning tone.
Nicole hit his hard chest and slowly wrapped her hands around his neck. She created an impenetrable net that pulled him into her world.
Her eyes were bright and watery like a pool of clear water. She looked into his gentle eyes that looked like a calm sea, and she wished she could sink into it.
However, she held back, stroked his hair, and teased him as he did to her.
“What do you think?”
The tips of their noses touched. How could they not know what each other was thinking after being together for so many years?
However, the moment Clayton’s kiss fell on her lips, she suddenly pushed him away.
Nicole backed away with a righteous smile as she said, “I don’t want to leave any trauma in my office.”
Otherwise, she would not be able to work in the future as she was not mentally strong enough.
Clayton touched his nose. His dark eyes flickered, and he raised his eyebrows.
“Okay. Let’s go home.”
Nicole took her bag and went out with Clayton following behind. However, he had taken off his coat and draped it over his arm to cover a certain body part.
Many people upstairs were still around working overtime.
When they passed by, everyone greeted them and watched as the couple got onto the elevator.
“How romantic! I’ve never seen a husband accompanying his wife to work overtime.”
“Why do I think that Mr. Sloan feels sexier since he came back?”
“Our president is really getting more beautiful by the day! Some people will believe that she’s underage.”
“Their PDA is so sweet that I can’t stomach anything else.”
......
Just as Nicole was about to drive her own car from the garage, Clayton grabbed her arm.
“The driver is outside.”
Nicole was taken aback and thought, ‘The driver was waiting outside this whole time?’
Clayton smiled. “Come on. It’s not safe to drive at night.”
Nicole blinked and followed him.
There was no one else outside.
The street lights were dim.
She subconsciously looked to the side and saw a figure flash by.
It was like an illusion.
Nicole instantly became vigilant and dragged Clayton into the car.
“Hurry, drive.”
The driver listened to her orders and stepped on the accelerator.
