The Deserted Rich Beauty (Nicole and eric) novel Chapter 438

Nicole looked at Clayton’s hand with understanding and put on her seatbelt. She smiled and asked, "Mr. Sloan, is it okay for you to take so much time off?"

Clayton said indifferently, "Yeah. My project partner isn’t even around, so should I stay to talk to Gerard and Tucker? I've announced a short break for that project and for them to get the core research done first. When we get back, it'll be just in time to see what they come up with."

Nicole heard this and blushed with a little guilt. She felt like she was not doing her job well.

Clayton paused for a moment. "Of course, Lil Michael really wants to come. He hasn't forgiven me for reprimanding him last night, so I ought to tag along.”

Speaking of Lil Michael, Nicole chuckled. "So that’s what it is, huh? Mr. Sloan, you're a really good father t o Lil Michael. He must love you very much."

What a loving father and son relationship!

Clayton smiled and did not respond.

He thought to himself, 'Love me?! My son just wants to inherit my estate as soon as possible!'

Clayton had already instructed Lil Michael's tutors to double his homework.

He would not let that little rascal enjoy this holiday.

Eric watched Nicole and Clayton conversing happily from behind. His eyes narrowed in displeasure.

The discomfort in his heart was getting stronger, as if what he had been neglecting before was starting to show.

Toto, who was next to Eric, also felt a sense of crisis. H e thought that he could not just sit back and watch them progress further.

He never liked Clayton because even though Clayton did not do anything too obvious, the way he treated Nicole was clearly different.

From Toto's rich experience, he was 80% sure that Clayton was interested in Nicole!

After some thought, Toto coughed slightly. "Ms. Stanton, why don't we switch seats? I have a great view here..."

Nicole frowned and did not respond. Lil Michael, who was in front of them, said frankly, "Pretty Lady's trying to sleep. Don't disturb her!"

Toto snapped his mouth shut.
