Clayton took a deep look at Nicole and felt frustrated.He looked at the snow-white skin on Nicole’s chest with his dark eyes and pulled over a thin blanket on the side to cover her up.“Wait a sec. Let’s have dinner together tonight.”Nicole smiled and watched as he walked out with a glum face.She inexplicably felt much better.Nicole could hear Clayton’s voice outside. He grunted and said in a cold and harsh tone, “I thought that there was an earthquake since you didn’t even care to knock.”The person who barged in was guilty and regretted barging in when he noticed Clayton’s glum expression and messy shirt.Nicole stretched her back, fixed her clothes, and lay back down.After a while, she fell asleep in a daze.When she woke up again, it was already dark.Beyond the curtains, the sky outside was dark.It took Nicole a while to come to her senses before she recalled where she was.She could vaguely hear someone outside, talking in a low voice.Clayton had deliberately

Julie could hear the sarcasm in Nicole’s words. She felt embarrassed and winked at Nicole to hint at her.For Julie’s sake, Nicole stopped talking so that it would be less awkward.However, Cheryl realized that she had been rude as she heard the dissatisfaction in Nicole’s words.Cheryl smiled. “I’m sorry, it’s just a subconscious reaction. Please don’t take it to heart, Ms. Stanton.”She took out her business card and introduced herself seriously.“Although I’ve just returned to Mediania, I’ve already registered with HY Law Firm. You can come to me any time if you need anything.”Nicole raised her eyebrows. There was nothing wrong with Cheryl’s appearance.Nicole took over Cheryl’s business card with both hands, glanced at it, and smiled.“Sure! HY is the best law firm in Atlanta, so they’re sure to hire the best lawyers to guarantee our basic rights…”Julie quickly echoed. “Right? Ms. Lichman won the grand prize of the debate competition abroad. She’s an excellent lawyer. We

Clayton helped Nicole to change into a pair of pajamas, carried her to the bed in the lounge, and covered her with a thin quilt.The doctor did a checkup, breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at Clayton and Nicole meaningfully.“Mr. Sloan, Ms. Stanton is a little hypoglycemic. She’ll be fine. The main reason for her feeling like that is that she has been soaking for too long and um… She was a little too overworked, which caused an insufficient blood supply to the heart. So, it’s advisable to take it easy…”The doctor said it euphemistically, but both Clayton and Nicole understood.Nicole just wished that she could hide under the quilt.Clayton was very calm and casually glanced at Nicole. He thanked the doctor and sent him out the door.Not long after, someone sent over a bottle of sports drink.Clayton took it over and handed it to Nicole.“Do you need me to feed you?”Nicole blinked her twinkling eyes.“Why didn’t you explain to them earlier? How embarrassing…”Clayton si

Nicole was not conscious and only felt that her head was getting heavier and heavier.Even when that hand on her neck was cold and made her feel uncomfortable, Nicole did not have the strength to brush it away.She only thought that no one but Clayton could be home at this hour.When did Clayton become so inconsiderate?It was quiet, and she fell asleep.Nicole did not know how long had passed.Her body suddenly trembled, and she woke up with a start when she heard the noise outside.She felt so uncomfortable as if she had been knocked over by a truck.Her body was sore like she had been hit, but she could not find any wounds or bruises.Nicole vaguely felt that something was wrong.She looked down and did not know when she had changed into pajamas.Nicole was a little sweaty because she had a nightmare, but she still felt fresh and clean.She slowly let out a deep breath, went to wash up, and came out with a change of clothes.After that, she felt much better, but her bod

At this time, Clayton’s face was solemn and glum.Clayton exuded a chill and was inexplicably frightening.This was not just vigilance for someone trespassing their property. It was more likely to be a provocation.The result was out.Clayton and Nicole left the hospital.Clayton did not drive them back to the apartment but went straight to a hotel.Nicole was a little surprised.Clayton smiled and comforted her. “The apartment isn’t safe anymore. This hotel has the highest security. I lived here when I just arrived in Mediania. You’ll have to put up with staying here for a few days, okay?”Nicole pursed her lips. “What about you?”“I’ll be with you.”Clayton smiled and pulled her hand to lead her out of the car. He rubbed his palm against hers to softly comfort her.“Don’t worry. I’ll get someone to protect you at all times.”They let down their guard because Tyler was arrested, but what they have to worry about now were people who were more sinister than Tyler.Clayton’s
