Nicole thought that she should not rush the matter of terminating Harvey's contract.
Harvey's reaction was beyond her expectation. It turned out that he was not a stupid person.
Then again, how could a sensible person like him be a n abuser?
Nicole could not help but feel a little curious, but she did not ask.
Harvey followed her down the steps, opened his mouth, and finally spoke.
"Ms. Stanton, I'm sorry."
Nicole looked at him. "Sorry for what?"
"I lied to you on the way here. I actually know Ava York."
'Oh, so it's about this...' Nicole thought.
Nicole’s face was indifferent. "Then why did you lie to me?"
Harvey's tone was deep and cold.
"I knew there was a reason for her to get me Stanton Corporation's endorsement deal, and I didn't want to b e classified with her."
That was why Harvey lied.
However, when Harvey saw Nicole behind the wine cabinet, his heart went completely cold.
The air was chilly.
Nicole tightened her jacket over her body.
“Alright."
Perhaps what he said was true and would not lie.
Her car had arrived at the door.
"Ms. Stanton, please be merciful when terminating the contract seeing as I didn't agree to her request."
Harvey knew very well the power of these big corporations' legal teams.
They rarely had a conscience.
Even when the corporation was first to cancel the contract, the person who ended up losing money would most often be the spokesperson.
Nicole tilted her head and examined him. “Terminate the contract?"
"Mm. Originally, I didn't dare to look forward to this endorsement either, but... I'm living off this now since I have no other work."
Harvey smiled bitterly. His cold and aloof expression all night finally cracked at this moment.
Nicole thought about it for a while before she reacted.' What he meant is that he's living off the termination fee? This is too miserable!'
Nicole bent down and saw Clayton, who had merged into the darkness of the car.
Even in the cold darkness, Clayton's brow bones were gentle. He looked clean-cut and warm.
His eyes were crystal clear, cold, and clean.
Nicole was a little surprised. "Why are you here?"
Clayton was in the car waiting for so long that even his body was tainted with the car’s light fragrance.
He looked at her and smiled, then reached out and pulled her wrist, so that she could get into the car.
However, Nicole wore a slim skirt and could not open her legs wide. When she just stepped onto the car, she was dragged in his arms.
The tip of her nose touched Clayton's hard shoulder. His warm and clean woody fragrance engulfed her nose and put her in a momentary trance.
Clayton carefully cupped her face. His eyes tinged with panic.
"Where were you hit?"
His tone was gentle.
Nicole smiled. "My nose."
Her nose was still a little sore.
