Nicole was stunned and wondered why Aida Webber wanted to see her.

Since Aida was her soon-to-be sister-in-law, Nicole could not put on airs.

“Please come in.”

Nicole smiled and watched as Aida walked in. Aida was gentle and pretty, with a smile that made people want to get close to her, like a spring breeze.

“Aida, you’re here to look for my big brother, right?”

Aida smiled. “I have a lunch date with him later, but I wanted to see you first.”

Nicole raised her eyebrows and looked at Logan, who nodded and turned to leave.

The two ladies had never been alone together.

Although Nicole felt sorry that Yvette and Grant could not end up together, Nicole was not going to get involved in their relationship.

Nicole would respect whoever Grant chose.

“Is Ms. Quimbey better now?”

Nicole paused for a moment. Her eyes flickered slightly. ” She’s much better now. She’s just been discharged from the hospital.”

“I remember that you two were very close back in high school. She often gives things to Grant on your behalf, chocolates, drinks, and other little things, so I have quite a deep impression of her.”

Aida smiled. It was a smile that seemed a bit tolerant and helpless.

Nicole faintly moved her eyebrows as she thought, ’I don’t think I’ve ever asked Yvette to give anything to Grant…?’

Both being women, Nicole immediately understood what Aida meant.

Aida must have sensed that Yvette had a thing for Grant.

After all, it was somewhat obvious that Aida lost her composure this morning.

Aida was here to feel her out.

Nicole lowered her eyes slightly and smiled without speaking.

Aida did not hesitate to speak. “I know that you didn’t ask Yvette to give Grant those things. You’re his sister, so how could you not know that Grant doesn’t like snacks and sweet drinks?”

Nicole did not say anything. Aida smiled and continued, ” For this reason, I had a big fight with Grant. Later, when I left the country, I didn’t even contact him.”

Nicole jerked up her head. “You left the country because of this?”

“Pretty much by coincidence. I just want to ask one question. Does Yvette still like Grant?”

Aida smiled with a hint of bitterness. “This girl is more tenacious than others, plus, she knows you.”

Nicole gave her a look. “I cherish my friend, but I’ve never set them up. You can ask her personally if you want to know the answer to that question.”

Aida raised her eyebrows. “Forget it, it’ll be too cruel.”

Aida knew that unmasking Yvette’s true feelings would be too cruel to Yvette.

With Aida’s character and temperament, she absolutely would not make others feel embarrassed.

Nicole paused. “Aida, my big brother likes you very much, so does our whole family, so you don’t need to worry about other women. You don’t need to worry about losing Grant because we’ll become a family soon. Don’t be concerned about it.”

Aida paused for a moment. Her pretty features had a momentary stiffness. She then smiled sincerely from the heart.

“I was overthinking it. No wonder your big brother loves you the most, Nicole. I will also love you a lot.”

Nicole smiled. Aida was not someone with ulterior motives. Aida would let them know about her worries, which would then be dispelled. Such people were probably the simplest.

There was a knock at the door. Before Nicole could speak, someone had already walked in.

Grant saw two ladies sitting there drinking coffee and felt a little helpless.

“Alida, don’t disturb Lil N’s work. Come disturb me instead Nicole choked and speechlessly looked at her big brother who was head over heels in love with Aida. ’How is Grant even cheesier than Kai?!’

Nicole watched Yvette walk in front and dazedly get on the elevator, her legs still trembling a little.

She suddenly felt some pity for Yvette.

According to Mrs. Quimbey’s temper, she might really beat Yvette to death.

Yvette stood at the door and took a deep breath before mustering the courage to push the door in.

“Mom…”

Mrs. Quimbey controlled the whole Quimbey family. She raised Yvette alone, but she was also famous for being a strong and able woman.

Her temper was thunderous, and her character was uncompromising.

Before Nicole went in, several photos were thrown in front of Yvette and fell to the ground.

“Look at what you’ve done!”

Yvette picked the photos up and had a look, and instantly turned pale.

She had not told her mother about this yet. Unexpectedly, someone had already sent photos of Sean and her together, and the photos of Mrs. Moore causing trouble for her.

When Nicole came in, she also saw the photos.

“Hello, Aunty.”

Seeing that Nicole was also here, the face of the originally furious Mrs. Quimbey instantly eased down.

“Nicole, it’s been a long time.”

Yvette gradually recovered from the shock. She did one wrong thing, and what followed after were all troubles, but she was ready to face it all.

“Mom, I’m here to tell you about what happened, but it seems that someone beat me to it. I have nothing to do with him anymore.

I didn’t know that he was married, otherwise, I wouldn’t do such a thing. There are many excellent men around me, so there’s no need for me to betray my morals for Sean.”

Yvette’s righteous appearance seemed to surprise Mrs. Quimbey, as if she did not expect Yvette to be so confident.

However, after thinking about it, according to Yvette’s temper, it was most likely true that she did not know.

“Have you really cut him off?”

Her purpose today was to make Yvette give up on this married man.

“Yes.”

Mrs. Quimbey looked at Nicole beside her. “Is she telling the truth?”

Nicole nodded. “Yes, Yvette came to the office to break off the cooperation between the Quimbey family and Sean. You should know that Yvette won’t like someone without morals.”

Mrs. Quimbey was silent for a moment before sighing.

“I’ve already unilaterally terminated the cooperation. It better be as you say. Don’t get involved with him in the future. You got into this trouble because you were too self- indulgent!”

Yvette lowered her head guiltily, but she secretly sighed in relief.

It was clear that her statement had been useful “However, we can’t delay your matter anymore. It’ll be too unpleasant if word of this matter spreads. Lance Sheldon from Sheldon Corporation will invite you to tea in a couple of days, so try to contact him. Unless he makes a big mistake, you’re not allowed to break up with him!”

Mrs. Quimbey gave Yvette a warning glance.

Yvette was shocked and jerked her head up. “Mom…”

“Don’t call me Mom. All you do is fool around all day. You’re already so old yet you don’t want to take over the company. In that case, find someone competent to take it over for you. Your reputation in the circle will only be preserved if the marriage is announced immediately!”

Nicole listened from the side. Lance Sheldon was the President of Sheldon Corporation. Although he was a little older than Yvette, he was still single.

When Nicole first dealt with Harrison Corporation, Lance had contributed a lot, and he reaped the delicious fruit of annexing Harrison Corporation.

He was a capable and ambitious person.

It seemed like Mrs. Quimbey was determined to let Yvette marry Lance.

Yvette had no chance to object.

After Nicole said goodbye, she went straight to Stanton Corporation.

Last time, Nicole helped Yvette get rid of Colton White, but she could not help with Lance Sheldon this time.

She went back to the office.

Before long, Logan knocked on the door.

“President, Ms. Webber wants to see you for a moment.”

Eric looked at her profile which was quiet and beautiful, yet she did not belong to him anymore.

Dark thoughts were always breeding in his heart. If she did not belong to him, should he just ruin her then?

Nicole saw that Yvette had finished scolding Sean and walked over when she waved.

Sean’s expression did not look good.

They were just about to leave when Sean’s voice sounded, hoarse as if he was cut by a knife.

”Yvette, apart from this matter, I’ve never lied to you. I told her that we’ll be getting a divorce in the afternoon. Please

Please wait for me.

Before he could finish, Yvette sneered at him.

”You two are a match made in heaven, so you mustn’t divorce because of me. I was really unlucky to step on dog sh*t like you. Don’t let me see you in Atlanta ever again, or I’ll beat you up every time I do!”

After playing around for so long, her heart finally decided to settle down and she accepted a man she wanted to keep in her life for a long time.

What was the result?

Haha, that man was already married.

No matter how cheap and how much she loved to play around, Yvette would not cross the line of her morals.

It was not worthwhile!

Yvette dropped the malicious words and pulled Nicole away.

Mitchell looked at Eric standing at the door, hesitating on whether to say it or not, but Eric did not have any intention of going to Sean. It seemed like his decision would not change.

On the way back.

Nicole looked at the furious Yvette and rubbed her temples. “Are you still angry?”

“How could I not be?”

“Eric decided to delay the cooperation indefinitely. If what you said was true, their cooperation is ruined. According to Eric’s personality, he won’t give Sean a second chance.”

Yvette’s expression turned slightly better, but then she paused and turned to look at Nicole.

“I didn’t know that Eric would be there. I didn’t expect him to go personally for such a small cooperation.”

Nicole smiled. She knew that Yvette only reacted in hindsight and felt uncomfortable for her.

“It’s fine.

It’s not like we can’t meet each other. Interests in the business world are inextricably linked, so it’s no big deal. But maybe Eric was optimistic about Sean.

Otherwise, as you said, he didn’t need to go for such a small cooperation.”

Yvette snorted coldly. “That only shows that birds of a feather flock together!”

That one sentence scolded both men, and Nicole also found it quite reasonable.

“Should I send you home?”

“Go to the office. The cooperation between the Quimbey family and Sean must be ended. Even if I’m scolded to death by my mom, I refuse to continue cooperating with such a scumbag.”

Nicole raised her brows and nodded.

In the end, their involvement was not deep, so it was easy to clear their relationship.

If it were Eric and her, it would not simply be a matter of words.

Fifteen minutes later.

They arrived downstairs at Yvette’s office.

Yvette took a deep breath, her face visibly pale. She still did not know how to explain it to her mother…

She pulled Nicole’s hand tightly and did not let go. “1… I’m nervous. I’m scared. Come up with me?”

Nicole was speechless.

Yvette said weakly, “My mom has always liked you the most. She said that your character is most similar to her. Come up with me, okay?”

Nicole nodded helplessly. “Fine, but I’m not helping you if you get beaten up.”

Yvette nodded. She knew that if she was really going to get beaten up, even God would not be able to help her.

The lady at the front desk had a good relationship with Yvette and greeted her with a smile.

“Ms. Quimbey, President Quimbey has been waiting for you upstairs for a long time…”

Yvette’s face grew even paler.

However, Sean did not care about Mrs. Moore. He only had eyes for Yvette and pulled her out despite her struggle.

Nicole frowned. She was afraid that Sean would take Yvette away and was just about to chase after them when she suddenly heard Eric’s cold voice.

“Mitchell, catch up with Mr. Moore and tell him that the signing of the contract will be postponed indefinitely.”

Mitchell was watching all this from the corner and immediately stood up when he was called by name.

“Understood, President.”

Was it because he did not want Nicole to go after them? The moment Nicole hesitated, Eric called her name. “Nicole…”

She turned around. Eric stood up, his eyes still as sharp and oppressive as ever.

His voice was low and lazy.

“Thank you for telling us this. Otherwise, we would’ve lost a lot of money after signing with Mr. Moore.”

Nicole pursed her lips calmly. “If you want to thank someone, then thank Yvette. It was her information.”

To the side, Mrs. Moore looked pale when she heard Eric’s words.

It seemed their cooperation was no longer plausible. “Mr. Ferguson, how could you not believe us because of a few words from that crazy woman?”

Eric paused and glanced at Mrs. Moore coldIy. His eyes were sharp and biting, making Mrs. Moore not dare to look directly at him.

“It’s just in case. We have to verify the authenticity. After all, your company has no credibility with me.”

Then, Eric left his seat and walked directly to Nicole.

“As a token of my appreciation, why don’t I treat you to dinner?”

Nicole frowned and was just about to refuse when he added, “With Ms. Quimbey as well.”

Why was this man acting somewhat odd?

Eric seemed a little too calm.

However, his eyes were completely dark, so it was impossible to see what was going on in his mind.

Their conversation last night had not been pleasant. At that time, Eric’s emotions were like shocking waves.

She did not believe that he could quietly accept it and then invite them to dinner the next day.

It was strange no matter how she thought about it.

She paused and smiled with calm eyes. “No, we have other things to do. We won’t bother you.”

Then, Nicole turned around and left in her high heels.

Eric’s eyes darkened slightly. His breath sank slightly before he followed her out.

The other people in the room finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the cooperation did not work, they all could not breathe when subjected to the low pressure around Eric.

Nicole went out and saw Sean and Yvette talking about something not far away. According to Yvette’s hysterical

look, she was probably using the most unpleasant words in the dictionary to cuss Sean out.

Since it did not seem like Yvette was at a disadvantage, Nicole did not rush over.

Mitchell was also waiting a short distance away.

Before she could stand still, a familiar biting and low breath appeared next to her.

Eric’s voice was raspy and indifferent.

“Sean isn’t a simple person. Tell your friend to be careful.”

Nicole gave him a side-glance. Eric looked at her and moved his eyebrows slightly, his lips curling up.

“Why? You don’t believe me? Now that you’re with someone else, have I become a wicked person without redemption?

What else did Clayton say about me?”

Nicole frowned. Her face was clear and cold, completely expressionless.

“You don’t come up in our conversations.”

Nicole’s words caused Eric’s face to stiffen fiercely.

The emotions that were hidden and suppressed in the depths of his dark eyes instantly churned.

What was more hurtful than provocation? Disregard. Eric felt it completely.

There seemed to be countless hands tearing his heart in his chest, about to rip it into pieces.

However, he could only endure it…

For a moment, the room was shocked.

External cost quotation was confidential, and no one would know unless they were insiders.

“How do you know this, Ms. Quimbey?”

“1s that true?”

“What’s their relationship?”

Sean regained his composure, and he fixed his gaze on Yvette with a deadly stare.

A slightly fat woman sitting next to him looked a little mean. She recognized Yvette and immediately stood up.

“Ms. Quimbey, did Sean not give you enough money?

Or are you not satisfied with the amount? What’s your motive for causing trouble now?”

Yvette glanced at the woman and gave a cold laugh.

“We meet again, Mrs. Moore.”

“You act really confident for a mistress. Ms. Quimbey’s skin is really extraordinarily thick. Now that you’ve been dumped, you’re throwing the handle after the blade and throwing mud at us?”

Mrs. Moore looked at Yvette, wanting nothing more than to tear her apart.

How dare Yvette show up in front of her?

Yvette was stimulated by the word ’mistress’ and her face instantly turned ugly.

At that moment, Nicole stepped out from behind the wall and stood next to Yvette with a cold face.

Her eyes were coldly focused on the woman beside Sean.

“Mrs. Moore, please get your facts straight. Yvette was made’ a mistress. With Sean’s wealth and appearance, if he hadn’t taken the initiative to pester Yvette, Yvette wouldn’t have taken a fancy to someone like him at all. You should put a leash on your dog. Don’t let it run out and bite people and then blame others for walking on the streets!”

Nicole’s words were not polite at all.

Mrs. Moore’s expression turned nasty in anger.

The people around watched silently as if they knew what was happening, but they had to lower their heads and pretend not to know.

After all, with Nicole around, no one dared to act as if they were watching a show.

Nicole smiled. She could feel a hot gaze from across the room and knew exactly who it was from.

However, she did not look up to see him. She could only try her best to ignore it.

Yvette also slowed down, looking at the woman and Sean with lukewarm eyes, and said provokingly, ”That’s right. I have so many boyfriends around me.

Why should I need to find a man from the garbage? Sean is the scummiest and worst person I’ve ever dated. I just didn’t expect there to be a garbage collection station beside him.”

That sarcasm was close to explicitly saying Mrs. Moore’s name.

Nicole paused, not wanting to continue wasting time on the verbal argument. She looked at Yvette and then at the people from Ferguson Corporation.

”You guys can check what Ms. Quimbey said. After all, she wouldn’t go as far as to fabricate a quotation just to destroy your cooperation.

I think that Ferguson Corporation won’t be indifferent to a fabricated quotation, right?”

Nicole’s words instantly drew their attention to the key point.

Mrs. Moore obviously panicked…

“Don’t listen to their nonsense. Yvette Quimby isn’t a good person at all…”

”Enough—”

Sean stood up with an unpleasant face, acting indifferent to all of this.

However, when Yvette was about to leave, Sean suddenly stood up.

Sean walked over and took Yvette’s hand out of nowhere. ” Come out with me. I need to explain something to you…”

”Sean—”

Mrs. Moore stood there with a pale face, glaring at them with shame and anger.

That little b*tch Yvette ruined their contract, but Sean did not care?

He took Yvette away in front of everyone. What was that supposed to mean?

It meant that the position of Mrs. Moore would be given to Yvette!

How could she be willing to have her face rubbed on the ground?

Grant nodded, his face expressionless.

”Then get some rest. If you need help with Sean, you can ask Nicole.”

Yvette’s face turned slightly pale. She pursed her lips and suddenly looked up at him.

”Thank you for your help, Grant.” Grant frowned but still nodded.

“Don’t mention it. You’re Nicole’s friend, and I still have business dealings with your family, so it’s only natural to help you.”

In an instant, the light in Yvette’s eyes disappeared completely.

At that moment, she felt that it was futile no matter how she tried to hide it.

Among the many reasons why Grant helped her, none of it was because she was Yvette.

Yes, what qualifications did she have?

Nicole pursed her lips. ”Big Brother, Aida and you should go back to work if you’re busy. I’ll send Yvette home later.”

Grant did not really want to stay here, so he nodded and pulled Aida’s hand to leave.

Before they left, Aida glanced back at Yvette.

However, there was not much probing in that glance. It seemed there was only gentle politeness.

Nicole went over to close the door and let out a sigh.

Turning back at Yvette, Nicole saw that Yvette’s tears had started to flow.

Nicole walked over and watched Yvette’s shoulders tremble slightly, but did not make a sound.

Today was probably the end of this unrequited love.

“If you want to cry, then cry. I’ll take you home afterward.” Nicole looked at her.

Yvette looked up at Nicole, her eyes filled with tears.

“Nicole, am I too rotten? Is that why he won’t even look at me?”

“How could that be?”

Yvette took a deep breath.

“I never dared to say what I like, and I play around with people I don’t like all day. Others must think that I’m rotten to the core. I know your good intentions. It was me who thought too much. No matter how many years have

passed, the only person in the world who can change him is Aida. Nicole, I’m giving up.”

Yvette conceded defeat.

Self-righteous affection would only touch herself. The reason why Grant helped her was because of Nicole.

Why should she lie to herself?

She could not do something like fighting to keep him. Otherwise, she would not have lost her mind in anger because of Sean’s marriage.

At the thought of Sean, Yvette wiped her tears, and her face sank slightly.

“I want to be discharged. Nicole, I need a favor from you.”

Nicole nodded decisively. “Of course.”

Yvette regained her strength after eating and was discharged from the hospital swiftly.

She took Nicole to a private club.

Just as Nicole was curious why they were here, Yvette spoke up.

“Sean will be here today to sign a contract with Ferguson Corporation. Once the contract is signed, it’ll mean that Sean’s business is officially established in Atlanta.

With Ferguson Corporation backing him like a great tree, he’ll gain a foothold very quickly. I have to destroy their cooperation!”

Nicole was speechless.

The moment she heard the words “Ferguson Corporation”, Nicole somewhat regretted coming along.

However, it was too late for her to go, and Yvette would definitely kill her if she did.

Nicole could only brace herself and follow, even as she regretted it in her heart a thousand times.

’Please don’t let it be Eric Ferguson…’

Yvette pushed open the door of the room boldly. More than a dozen people sat in the room, including lawyers. It

looked very solemn.

Everyone was interrupted by Yvette and could not help but look at the door.

Yvette swept her eyes over and saw Sean, who was equally shocked.

She sneered and threw the bag in her hand on the table in a large movement, not polite at all.

“Eric Ferguson, have you investigated this person you’re signing a contract with? The liquidated assets under his name are falsified, and the cost price given to you was secretly increased by 20% compared to other companies. He’s treating you like a sucker…”

However, before Nicole could react, Clayton already let go of her hand as if nothing happened. He politely nodded to the people inside and then turned to leave with a smile in his eyes.

His back was frank and warm, with not the slightest trace of the small action he just did.

Nicole secretly clicked her tongue at him and turned around.

As soon as she did, she saw Yvette and Julie smiling at her meaningfully.

Julie smiled. “Mr. Sloan moves very quickly. You two are so sweet to each other now. Is the next step discussing marriage?”

Nicole gave her a chastising glare.

“What are you thinking? We should be thinking about Yvette’s matters now. You’re focusing on the wrong point!”

Yvette could not help but smile. “Your ability to change the topic has improved. Nicole, are you planning on pursuing love instead of your career?”

Nicole opened her mouth seriously.

“Those aren’t mutually exclusive. Of course, I’m career- oriented. Love is just icing on the cake!”

“Love rat!” The two of them spoke in unison. Nicole touched her nose.

After Yvette finished her meal, Julie received an emergency call from her company. It seemed like something happened.

“Yvette, I have to go to the office so I can’t accompany you. You should be discharged after you finish eating. Why don’t I send you back?”

Yvette’s eyes flashed. “I can’t be discharged. I still have to let my mom see how pitiful I am. Otherwise, she’ll kill me later.”

Julie looked at her helplessly and spoke to Nicole. “You watch her then? I’ll go now.”

Nicole nodded, indicating that there was no problem.

As soon as Julie left, Grant arrived.

Nicole sent him a text early to tell him that Yvette was fine and asked him to come to visit when he had the time.

She knew that the reason why Yvette was not discharged was that she was waiting for him.

It was like she was stubbornly wanting a result. Grant knocked on the door and came in.

Yvette’s eyes lit up, but instantly dimmed when she saw the person who came in after Grant.

Nicole also stood up, smiling naturally. “Big Brother, Aida, you’re here.”

She did not expect Grant to bring Aida, but she could not act strangely.

Grant nodded, his expression as cold as ever.

He looked at Yvette. “How are you, Ms. Quimbey?”

Yvette’s expression seemed a bit tense, not knowing whether to rejoice or be sad.

The corners of her mouth pulled and she lowered her head, saying in a weak voice, “I’m much better.”

Nicole could see the disappointment Yvette was concealing.

Behind Grant, Aida poked her head out. Beautiful and gentle, she gave them a generous smile.

“I hope you get well soon, Ms. Quimbey…”

Yvette smiled with a pale face. “Thank you, Aida. I didn’t expect you to visit me.”

Aida’s eyes softly glanced at Grant, and she jokingly said, ” My car broke down, so he came to pick me up. I originally wanted to wait outside, but he was probably afraid that I would drive the car away, so he dragged me along with him.”

Grant looked at her with an exasperated and doting gaze.

“It’s not the first or second time you’ve left me behind. Of course, I have to guard against the third time.”

His words were filled with a cherishing tone.

Aida smiled in embarrassment. The two of them were not showing any intimate behaviors.

However, with just one look, Aida could make Grant’s aura approachable.

Yvette’s smile was suddenly suffused with bitterness, but she quickly concealed it.

She fiercely lowered her gaze to cover the emotions in her eyes.

Nicole sighed and smiled helplessly.

“Yvette’s fever just subsided, and she ate some food, but her body hasn’t fully recovered yet, so she doesn’t have much energy.”

Read Chapter 944 of The Divorced Billionaire Heiress-By I Wanna Eat Meat

Nicole and Julie, who was on the side, woke up. Clayton’s eyes sank slightly before quickly recovering.

He was not angry. Even if Yvette disturbed Nicole’s sleep, it was not on purpose.

Nicole got up and walked over to see Yvette’s ruddy and lustrous face.

Her eyes were firm and shining, but her voice was still weak.

It was probably because she had not eaten. “You’re awake? How do you feel?”

Yvette seemed to remember what happened earlier, and her eyes dimmed.

Her voice was weak. “I’m hungry.”

Nicole and Julie could not help but sigh in relief as Clayton prepared the food and handed it over.

As the two people set up the small table for her, Yvette mumbled, “Grant isn’t here?”

Nicole paused, and Yvette pursed her lips as her eyes flashed.

“I remember that he saved me. I want to thank him personally.”

Yvette had already made herself forget the pain of unrequited love.

However, in her memory, it was the first time that Grant protected her like that. It was the first time he held her. It was the first time he was so close to her.

Her dead heart wanted to come back to life again…

What if… What if he also had a bit of interest in her? For this ’what if’, she was willing to give it a try.

Nicole paused when she saw Yvette’s expectant gaze.

“Grant has work, but he’ll probably come over to see you after a while.”

She understood Yvette’s thoughts very well and had no right to judge if they were right or wrong.

Julie sighed from the side. “You really need to polish your eyes. Sean clearly doesn’t look like a good person. I told you before, but you thought that I was judging someone by their appearance.

You’ve finally tasted the bitterness now, right?”

Yvette’s expression was a little lost for an instant as she spoke in a low voice.

“I was blind. All the things I thought he did for me were just something he used to fool me.

When we were trapped in the mountains, it was not that he did not have a helicopter, but that he was afraid that using the helicopter would alert his wife. He would rather let me crawl out of the mud. I was really so blind!”

Julie walked over to pat her shoulder.

“Alright, cut him off cleanly this time and grow wiser since you’ve learned your lesson.”

A trace of rage flashed in Yvette’s eyes, and Nicole looked at her calmly.

“If you don’t want to just let it go, we’ll help you take out your anger until you’re satisfied.” There was no need for the proud Yvette Quimbey to hold back her anger.

Yvette looked up at her and pursed her lips. “I’ll tell you if I need help.”

They did not need to be polite.

Nicole smiled, and Yvette took a deep breath. “Okay, I want to eat. Were you guys here all night?”

She looked at Clayton behind Nicole and blinked. “Mr. Sloan, you were here too?”

Clayton smiled and hurriedly said, “I took a nap in the lounge next door. It was these two ladies who worked hard.”

Nicole smiled and looked at him. “It’s getting late. You should go to work. I’ll leave after a while.”

Clayton hesitated for a moment, and Nicole clicked her tongue and pushed him out.

“We’re gonna have some girl-talk. How will we do that with you around?”

Clayton smiled helplessly. It turned out that he was the third wheel here.

When he was forced out the door, he paused and turned to look at Nicole.

“Then I’ll leave now. Call me if you need anything?” Nicole nodded eagerly and impatiently.

Clayton smiled gently and did not move, looking like he was reluctant to leave her.

Nicole was completely helpless. Behind her, Julie and Yvette’s gazes burned as they watched the show, making her face feel hot.

Clayton also saw her embarrassment and did not make things hard for her. He simply reached out and pulled her hand, caressing it a little before letting go.

Nicole’s face reddened. Was Clay on taking advantage of her?

The doctor smiled. “Ms. Quimbey’s body is fine, but there are still residues of the injected drugs in her body. It’ll take eight to nine hours for her to fully recover. She’s also a little feverish, but we’ve given her a shot for that, so her fever will subside in a while.”

Nicole and Julie sighed in relief.

It seemed like they went there in time.

After the doctor left, the two of them sat there, looking at Yvette who was lying there in a daze.

She seemed to be cursing someone in her dreams. She was scolding Sean.

They vaguely heard words like “scumbag” and “go to hell”.

Nicole and Julie exchanged a smile. If another person experienced this, they might feel so agonized that they would want to die.

However, Yvette only thought about revenge! Less than half an hour later, Clayton rushed back.

Nicole looked at the logo of the lunch box he was carrying. It looked like it was from a famous private kitchen.

People usually did not even have the chance to get their number to make a reservation, but Clayton made them get up in the middle of the night to cook for him?

Before Nicole had a chance to ask about it, Julie’s sharp eyes noticed it.

“Don’t you have to book food from this restaurant well in advance? You actually went to them?”

Clayton smiled, gentle and calm.

“Everyone has worked hard, and there’s a patient too, so you should eat something good. It just so happens that I’m friends with the owner of this restaurant, so it wasn’t hard for him to cook up something.”

Clayton put it on the table. “I asked him to make two servings.

Leave one for Ms. Quimbey to eat when she wakes up, and you two can eat the other one.”

How could Nicole not be proud of such a considerate boyfriend?

Julie was moved by his actions and decided to take back what she said to Nicole about being more vigilant.

Clayton even helped Nicole take the cutlery out. He stopped just shy of feeding her himself.

Nicole sat there, wanting to find a hole to disappear into.

It was fine when he acted like that normally, but Julie was present as well. Did he not know how to hold back a little?

Nicole felt her face burn but pretended to be calm as she talked to Julie.

“Come on. It’ll get cold if we don’t eat.”

Julie calmly walked over and sat down, looking at her with a meaningful smile.

“Why is your face so red? Do you have a fever too?” Clayton’s movements paused as he looked at her intently.

Nicole dodged his eyes and glared at Julie. “It’s too hot here. Just eat already!”

Julie calmly lowered her head and ate, making Nicole feel a little embarrassed.

Clayton’s smile got deeper as a gentle light filled his eyes.

If there were no other people present, he would have asked her if she was shy.

After they finished eating, Clayton silently packed up the items.

Nicole told him to go back, but he shook his head, wanting to stay with her.

He wanted her to go back and rest, but he knew that with her relationship with Yvette, she would not just leave.

Thus, he thought about it and did not speak.

Clayton took a nap in the other room for a while and went back early in the morning to get Nicole a change of clothes.

At dawn, Nicole was lying on a rocking chair, dozing.

Clayton came in quietly but could not bear to disturb her, so he sat there staring at her, admiring her seriously as if she were a precious painting.

Yvette’s fever had gone down, and her body was full of vitality after a night’s rest.

As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw this scene of Nicole and Clayton, which was a bit too much for her to bear.

Her fragile heart almost shattered.

Yvette raised a trembling hand, her hoarse voice destroying this peaceful image.

“Are you two showing off your love?!”

Her words startled the sleeping people awake.

Nicole looked at it and her eyes sank.

She remembered it clearly. Ines Xavier, the daughter of Gemini Entertainment, had provoked her recklessly.

Later, Nicole used her family’s power to suppress Gemini Entertainment until they were barely lingering now.

“Did Sean hide his last name to avenge his father?”

Julie shook her head. “I don’t think it’s for revenge. He doesn’t have much contact with Gabriel, and this identity doesn’t bring him much benefit either. He’s backed by his mother’s family. The Moore family didn’t have a good foundation, especially in the first few years when signs of decline were obvious. However, their situation suddenly changed in recent years, most likely due to Sean’s efforts.”

She did not expect that Gabriel Xavier of Gemini Entertainment had such a capable illegitimate son.

He was much stronger than Ines.

Julie paused and lowered her voice, letting out a sigh.

“He’s married with a daughter of a nouveau riche, but it’s rumored that their relationship isn’t good, probably because he dedicated himself to money. He doesn’t even go back to see his wife once a year. Our poor Yvette has really suffered a great injustice!”

Nicole nodded.

Although Yvette loved to play around, she never crossed those moral lines.

Sean was really abominable to put Yvette in such a despicable situation.

After a while.

Clayton came in a hurry.

There was an aggressive chill around him as if the temperature outside had made him colder.

In his hand, he carried a large Hermes bag that he had used for grocery shopping.

Clayton looked at Nicole and handed it over.

“I was worried you’d be cold, so I brought you some clothes.”

Nicole took it and saw that although the bag was a ladies’ bag, the clothes inside were all male.

Needless to say, the clothes belonged to Clayton.

Clayton paused. “I was in a hurry, and I couldn’t go to your place to get clothes, so I could only bring mine. Bear with it for now.”

Nicole smiled. She had left in a hurry and was still wearing a formal dress. The windbreaker she wore was no use at all, so these clothes came just in time.

Clayton helped her take it out and put it on, and the two of them looked at each other with a smile…

To the side, Julie clicked her tongue. “My teeth ache when I see you guys like this.”

Nicole was surprised. “Why?” “It’s too sweet!”

She really did not hold back. Nicole glared at her, and Julie sized Clayton up with scrutiny.

Clayton buttoned Nicole up and turned to Julie with a smile. “By the way, you haven’t eaten yet, right? I’ll go buy some food so Ms. Quimbey will be able to eat as well after she wakes up.”

If it were just Nicole and Julie, they would definitely have refused.

It was in the middle of the night. What shops would still be open?

Letting him go out would just be troubling him.

However, he brought up Yvette. There was a mention about Yvette not being willing to eat back at Sean’s place, so she was probably hungry.

Nicole nodded. ”There’s no need to go too far. Just buy anything. Come back if you can’t find anything and I’ll ask the butler to send some food over.”

Clayton smiled and nodded, and then turned and ran out. Julie shook her head.

“Mr. Sloan is really humble with you, but you should be careful. Don’t be blinded by momentary sweetness like Yvette was.”

Nicole smiled. ”I know. He’s not that kind of person.”

Julie frowned, wanting to say something, but decided not to.

Nicole was different from Yvette, and Clayton was different from Sean.

Yvette was pushed back to the ward by the doctor, her face burning and swollen like a cooked crab, looking really pitiful.

”Doctor, how is she?”
