Chapter 2345 Cousin
Nicole and Clayton walked slowly for about forty minutes before they arrived at the high-end community where they lived.
Clayton was not tired as he pushed Nicole and chatted with her.
When they walked to the door, the security guard inside ran out to greet them.
Clayton lowered his head and asked her, "Do you want some water?"
After chatting the whole journey, Nicole was really thirsty, so she nodded.Clayton went to the security room to get water.
Nicole sat in a wheelchair and looked around. The scenery was beautiful and peaceful.
In the distance, a tall and thin man was walking a Samoyed heading toward Nicole.
When the Samoyed saw Nicole, it wanted to run over to her.
The man was dragged over as he cursed at his dog.
Nicole could not help but laugh. The man looked familiar to her. He was probably a resident here.
The man was surprised to see Nicole. He smiled and said,” Ms. Stanton, what a coincidence! Are you feeling unwell?" Nicole smiled as if nothing was wrong and lied without blinking.
"I accidentally twisted my foot." The man nodded regretfully.
"Who did you come out with? Is anyone taking care of you?"
He was just asking casually.
Nicole paused and subconsciously blurted out, “Oh, my cousin...”
After she finished speaking, she regretted it.
Why did she blurt out cousin?
How could the man not recognize Clayton?
The next second, Clayton came out from the security room with a bottle of water. He had heard the conversation outside clearly.
Clayton looked at Nicole meaningfully, smiled, and stretched out his hand to the man holding the dog.
“Hello, I'm her cousin."
The man paused and glanced at Clayton in confusion.
He shook hands with Clayton, let go, and looked at the two of them strangely as he thought, ‘Isn't this Clayton? Nicole's husband? Two days ago, Nicole and Clayton were interviewed on the finance news channel together. How did they become cousins in the blink of an eye? They must be joking...’
Clayton put the bottle of water in her hand. He had a gentle, bright, and cunning smile. His deep eyes lingered on her face for a few seconds.
Finally, he pinched her chin and lowered his head to kiss her. He asked her in a low and seductive voice, “Cousin, shall we go back now?"
Nicole’s face turned red.She did not even dare to look up to see the gaze of the man walking the dog.
Nicole lowered her head and clutched her clothes in embarrassment.
"Let's go..."
Seeing her embarrassed face, Clayton kindly let her go.He stood up straight and said gently to the man opposite them, "We'll see you around.”
“Goodbye.”
Clayton pushed the wheelchair out. Nicole was so stiff that she did not think to drink water.She licked her lips and felt that she was no longer thirsty.Her guilty conscience made her forget her thirst.
Nicole also lost her leisurely mood while she was sitting in the wheelchair.
Clayton pushed her from behind with a smile and asked," Cousin, do you like that dog?”
Nicole was speechless.
It was silent for a while until Clayton asked again, "Cousin, aren't you thirsty?"
Nicole remained silent.
"Cousin, why don’t we get a dog too?”
Nicole was completely speechless.
"Cousin..."
"Cousin!"
Nicole blushed and could not bear it any longer.
She raised her head abruptly and turned back to see Clayton smiling at her. She gritted her teeth and said, "I was wrong for doing that. I didn't mean to lie. I just said it casually without thinking...”
It was too late for her to regret it.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Divorced Billionaire Heiress
I liked this book and wanted to read it. As I have moved into the chapters, I have found that it is unreadable due to typographical errors, including sentences that are incomplete, complete gibberish, missing elements. This is not just some misspelled words. It is actually unreadable. If you decide to fix this, let me know and I will read it....
