Chapter 771 A Painful Lesson
Once Clayton Sloan came, everyone held different expressions.
Floyd snorted coldly. He was still harboring some rage against Clayton for dragging his daughter into this mess.
However, thinking about the fact that Clayton just saved Nicole’s life, Floyd did not kick Clayton out.
Besides, Clayton might also be a victim.
Kai beckoned. “I’m sure Clayton’s here to explain things. Quick, invite him in.”
He looked at Floyd.
“Dad, after all, he’s Lil N’s lifesaver. Even if you feel angry, you have to put up with it…”
Floyd rolled his eyes and sat down with a calm demeanor. “I know!”
Kai laughed. Nicole was calm.
Since she knew that Stanton Corporation’s stocks were not affected much, Nicole did not bother about this.
It was not like she had not been berated by netizens before.
She also did not care what her image was in the hearts of netizens.
As soon as Clayton came in, he saw that except Grant and Maverick, all the Stantons were there. Floyd and Kai’s faces were not very pleasant.
Only Nicole smiled at him.
“Looks like it’s raining outside. Mr. Sloan is soaked. Mr. Anderson, please get a dry
“Looks like it’s raining outside. Mr. Sloan is soaked. Mr. Anderson, please get a dry towel for him…”
The butler answered and hurriedly found a new towel for Clayton, then handed it over.
Clayton took it but did not dry himself. He only looked at Nicole with a dark and complicated gaze.
He felt very guilty.
For a while, Clayton did not know how he should explain this.
He was afraid that Nicole would believe the rumors online, but he was even more afraid that she would not ask him if it was true.
That was because it would mean that she did not care.
After a few seconds of hesitation, Kai’s laughter broke the awkward silence.
When Clayton looked at Floyd, he was more solemn and guilty “I’m really sorry for dragging Nicole and the Stanton family into this because of what happened to me. I’ve already asked someone to settle this matter. It’ll be gone first thing tomorrow morning and will never be mentioned again.” He said with certainty as if he had a plan.

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....
