The Deserted Rich Beauty (Nicole and eric)
Chapter 1028 I Really Like You

Nicole finished speaking.

Clayton's hand movements stiffened slightly.

From above, he saw her dark hair and her white and tender neck. Just pressing it lightly was enough to leave marks on it. It made him feel the urge to leave a mark, yet he could not bear to do so. When she spoke, her voice was soft like a spring breeze or a fountain of water flowing into his heart.

No one had ever told him "you're not in the wrong" before.

The maid clearly saw that his mother jumped down by herself back then, but she spread the word that he pushed his mother instead.

Saying that could satisfy some people's curious minds.

His father clearly fell down the stairs on his own accidentally, but he believed in Isaac's words and thought that it must be Clayton who pushed him from behind. Thus, Clayton became a heinous person.

It was as if Clayton's existence was a mistake. It was a s if he did not deserve forgiveness.

However, Clayton never did anything wrong.

Nicole's words suddenly made him feel like his past was not that bad.

His hand squeezing the towel paused. He threw the towel aside and leaned down to hug her.

Gently, he sighed.

"Nicole, I really, really like you..."

Nicole's lips curled as she turned and returned his embrace.

"Mm, I know."

She knew that he liked her. He liked her a lot.

When his mood calmed down, Nicole felt hungry, so she went to the kitchen to take out two slices of bread before giving one to him.

"You haven't eaten anything since last night."

Clayton smiled and took it, then took Nicole's slice as well and threw them to the side.

"I'll cook."

Nicole was stunned as Clayton rolled up his sleeves and walked into the kitchen.

She sat in the chair opposite the kitchen and watched. There was an inherent aesthetic to men when they cooked. It was very attractive. Nicole was really jealous.

Clayton looked up at her and smiled. "Is there anything else you want to know?"

He slowly calmed down. With Nicole's support, he could face the unbearable past.

Nicole paused and asked directly, "You had a good relationship with Michael's father, didn't you?"

Clayton's smile faded slightly as he nodded.

"He was the person who treated me the best in the Sloan family. He was naive and simple, just like you. He never looked at people with colored glasses."

Clayton naturally blurted out the words of praise.

It made Nicole a little embarrassed. 'Am I that great?'

"It's a pity that he passed away early. Otherwise, I'd really want to introduce you guys."

Nicole also wanted to meet him. She wanted to see what this person who brought Clayton the only warmth he knew was like.

Unfortunately, there was no longer a chance.

"Isaac was brutal and unreasonable since he was young, but he had deep thoughts and he was terrifyingly cold. When my father was in the company, Isaac secretly made preparations to enter the company. He joined the company under the pretense of an internship, but he secretly pulled in the top brass and approached the power center of the Sloan family. Back then, my father let me intern at the company. I found out that Isaac secretly colluded with others to transfer interests, so I warned him. Isaac harbored a grudge for that, so he set up a trap for me and got me

kicked out."

Clayton's voice lowered and turned slightly cold.

"Later, my father fell down the stairs. I investigated it afterward and found that the stairs were coated in a layer of oil. I suspect that it was Isaac's doing." Nicole's eyes widened in shock.

She did not dare to believe it. Isaac actually did such a thing with ease?

"No one believed you?"

Nicole could not help but ask.
