The Divorced Billionaire Heiress novel Chapter 500

Chapter 500 You’re Not Welcomed Here

Nicole was suspicious of Clayton’s deceitful blather.

She was not someone who could be coaxed with mere words.

Clayton met her gaze and said frankly,” Less than a year…

But every day since I met you, I’ve been very happy to find out that you’re single. Nicole, let’s start anew.

My name is Clayton Sloan. I was widowed three years ago, and I have a son.” He lowered his eyes and smiled a little self a -deprecatingly. “I know that sounds like poor conditions, but I have a lot of money.

I’m not quite sure on the exact amount, but if you want to know, I can get someone to tally it up, but it may take a little longer because I can’t remember all the assets that I have. Also…” ) Clayton paused for a moment. He looked serious, and his warm gaze seemed to glow. “Michael is actually my late brother’s son.

Due to certain religious beliefs and traditions, I had no choice but to marry Michael’s mother so that her family would agree to her giving birth to Michael.” Nicole stiffened. She suddenly did not know what to say. His self-deprecating look earlier made her feel a little loss for words. This secret also made her heavy-hearted.

No one probably knew about this secret, yet Clayton opened up to her about this. Nicole’s heart ached for Michael. Her mood was very complicated. Clayton continued, “I’m only telling you about this because this is my biggest secret. Don’t feel burdened by it.

I originally intended to wait for Michael to get older before telling him about this” Nicole pursed her lips. She seemed to have inadvertently touched Clayton’s sadness. “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to probe.”
