The Divorced Billionaire Heiress novel Chapter 2230

Chapter 2230 Was It Him or Not?

Sebastian was taken aback for a moment.

The man sitting in the wheelchair raised his head slowly and looked at Nicole deeply. His eyes were dark and deep. They were gloomy and completely unfamiliar to Nicole.

However, Nicole did not believe it.

She took a step forward and almost lost her composure, wanting to rip his mask away.

However, the man blocked her.

His hands were extremely rough with scars of varying shades.

It was completely different from her impression of Clayton's slender hands, which looked like works of art.

One was perfect. while the other was scarred.

Soon, the man put his hand on his mask and slowly took it off.

Nicole was nervous and started to breathe carefully.

She stared at him without blinking and watched him take off his mask. He did not look away from her either.

The face under the mask was completely unfamiliar to Nicole.

Although the man looked clean and handsome, his face was pale, and his lips were white. He looked very weak.

There was a shallow scar near his eye that had already healed, but it seemed to have ruined his gentle temperament.

Nicole was stunned for a moment.

Her hands froze in place, and she did not know whether she should retract them or not.

Meanwhile, Jeff showed a pale smile without the slightest reproach.

"I'm sorry for being rude. It's indeed strange to wear a mask and a hat here.

But I don't like being seen because of my body. That's why I wore them.”

He nodded slightly, and his attitude was unexpectedly gentle and friendly.

Everyone immediately had a lot of compassion for him.

After all, they could understand why a disabled person did not want to be stared at.

Standing there, Nicole felt that she was too impulsive just now. She had gone overboard.

Fortunately, there were not many people present, and Jeff would not be disturbed.

The other guests smiled and went elsewhere to mingle.

Sebastian smiled and sighed.

"Ms. Stanton, you don’t know him, right?”

Nicole withdrew her hand and nodded.

Her nervous heart instantly sank like a rock in the sea.

She did not want to admit it, but she felt so disappointed when she thought she saw a sliver of hope.

He was not Clayton. He was not the person she kept in her heart.

Nicole was in despair.

It turned out that the psychiatrist was right.

She had projected her fantasies onto a stranger thinking that Clayton was watching her.

In fact, it was all her imagination.

After tearing off the veil, Nicole found that the man under the mask was not Clayton.

He was just a listless stranger.

Clayton was such a gentle and bright person, so how could he look at others with such gloomy eyes?

Jeff Lieberman was not Clayton.

Someone noticed her disappointed look.

Jeff's lips were pale, but he still smiled and said, "We don't know each other. Maybe Ms. Stanton recognized the wrong person."

Nicole suddenly raised her head. "How do you know my name?"

Jeff looked at Sebastian.

Sebastian immediately said, "Ms. Stanton, please don't be offended. I was the one who told Jeff. The guest list for this banquet was kept secret, but I told him anyway. You're the only woman invited, so Jeff remembers you.”
