Chapter 2331 Reverse the Situation
Nicole nodded. All she cared about was the medical device he brought back from abroad. She watched him use it just now.
The sky was clear and the air quality was exceptionally good.
In a blink of an eye, Aida finished her confinement, and Kenji was a hundred days old.
Floyd hosted a big party for Kenji, which doubled as a celebration of Clayton’s return.
Everyone had no comments about it.
The party was held at the Hilton Hotel.
Floyd invited many socialites, business partners, and friends.
Even Lance came.
There were all kinds of people at the reception with an endless stream of congratulations.
Floyd smiled so much that he had creases at the corners of his eyes. The huge and luxurious banquet hall was packed with people.
Aida recovered very well from her pregnancy and was in a good state.She stood beside Grant and chatted with the guests while little Kenji was sleeping peacefully in Grant’s arms.
Clayton followed Floyd to socialize with the guests, acting as the perfect son-in-law from before.
Nicole and Julie were sitting at a booth while Kai was busy exchanging pleasantries with guests. It was a great day.
Julie glanced at Nicole indiscriminately.
She smiled. The light that was as bright as a diamond shone on Nicole’s skin, which made her skin look fair and translucent.
Nicole drank some wine, so her skin was slightly flushed.
Nicole was beautiful and vivid. She was like a completely different person compared to the days when Clayton was missing. Julie smiled and leaned into Nicole quietly.
‘Your face has been glowing recently. Did you go for a facial? Or did you and Clayton keep doing it now that he’s back?”
Nicole’s calm face turned red instantly, and she almost spilled the wine in her glass.She looked a little nervous and embarrassed.
“Julie, you’re getting more unrestrained!”
Nicole glared at Julie with drunken eyes and looked around to see if there was anyone nearby.She looked like a kitten whose secret had been exposed.
Julie smiled nonchalantly.
“I’m just talking about scientific truth. Don’t deny it. Having sex frequently makes people’s skin glow.”
Nicole’s face flushed, and she could not sit still.
“I’m leaving if you continue this!”
Julie smiled. “Alright, I won’t joke with you anymore. Look, everyone’s surrounding Clayton. I’m afraid that Atlanta’s businesses will be shaken up with his return.”
Clayton had shaken up the business scene in Atlanta when he came to Mediania because no one could compare to his background and skills.
In the business world, the surface seemed calm, but it could be a bloody fight behind the scenes.
When people heard the news of the earthquake, everyone thought that Clayton was dead. Some people were happy while others were worried.
The situation was reshuffled. Even though the company was still around, Roland’s skills could not compare to Clayton, so they stole a lot of businesses under Clayton’s name.
Now that Clayton made a strong comeback without warning, everyone started to panic again.
Nicole looked back with a smile. Clayton followed Floyd with a smile on his face. He had a calm and dignified demeanor that was not arrogant. He was also obedient and humble to Floyd.
Everyone was talking about Clayton’s return.
“Mr. Sloan, I heard that you had an accident during the earthquake. I guess those were all rumors!”
“Mr. Sloan, I hope we can cooperate well in the future!”
“Chairman Stanton, your son-in-law is really outstanding. He’s good-looking and capable. What a rare find!”
“Congratulations…”
Floyd smiled from ear to ear.
“Of course…”
Nicole suddenly thought about something and stood up.
“I’ll go and have a look.”
Julie looked at Nicole’s impatient back and raised her eyebrows.
‘’You really can’t bear to part from him for a moment!”
Nicole held her wine glass and only focused on him.
Clayton also raised his head tacitly and looked at her.
When he saw her walking over, he raised his brows slightly, then whispered something to Floyd and walked toward her.
They seemed to have some sort of wonderful attraction that made them want to be next to each other at this moment.
The two of them approached each other and embraced one another amidst the sea of people.
At that moment, someone captured this scene on the second floor.
The pale golden light shone on the couple, which added a glow to the picture. The couple was enveloped in soft light. From the photographer’s point of view, both of them melted into the light.
Everyone else became a passing shadow, and only these two were embracing each other.
The tall and strong man that was dressed in a dapper suit lowered his head and held the delicate woman in his arms.
Tenderness and love seemed to be overflowing from his eyes.
Nicole, on the other hand, was wearing a white haute couture dress with statement jewelry. She embodied simplicity and luxury in her outfit.
She held a half-filled wine glass in one hand and put her free arm around Clayton’s waist. The moment she raised her head slightly, she felt that there was a dazzling light in his beautiful eyes.
It was dazzling and stunning.
lan casually smiled and admired the photo in his hand with a cigarette in his other hand.
His eyes flickered. When he thought about how everyone sympathized and laughed at Nicole when they thought Clayton was dead, he posted the photo online without hesitation.
The caption was, “The best reunion of the year!”
lan did not care about the consequences.
As soon as lan posted the picture, various social media platforms were in a frenzy.
[No way! Goddess Nicole’s husband is back! They really are the perfect match!]
[I finally believe in true love among the upper class. I don’t think that gaze can be faked, can it?]
[Goddess Nicole is so gorgeous! Can she change careers and become an actress?]
[Clayton Sloan really matches her! He didn’t die! I knew he wouldn’t die! Welcome back!]
[I thought that Clayton died during the earthquake and was so sad for Goddess Nicole for such a long time. It’s amazing that he’s back! I hope they’ll be happy forever!]
[This is such a beautiful picture!]
[Did you guys see the cane next to Clayton’s leg?]
Countless comments flooded in instantly.
The internet blew up because of this photo.
At the same time, on the way to the Hilton Hotel, Eric drove because Mitchell drank a lot on his behalf during a social engagement. Thus, Eric became the driver as Mitchell sat in the passenger seat to sober up.
Since Eric left the French restaurant, he already expected such a day would come.
After so long and all his efforts, he ended up with nothing.
In the end, he had nothing.
Eric gradually shifted his focus to foreign countries, just like in those years when he restrained his feelings for Nicole and stayed alone abroad.
Only this time, he really felt lonely and hopeless.
