The Deserted Rich Beauty (Nicole and eric)
Chapter 2042 Don’t Think Too Much

Clayton suddenly felt a kind of anger and fear in his heart.

Nicole was stunned for a moment and smiled.

"Don't think too much. It's just a casual question."

She took a deep breath and felt like a scumbag when she asked this question.

Sure enough, instead of worrying about Clayton leaving her, it was better to let him worry about her leaving him.

That way, she would still have the initiative.

Only a stupid person like Tina would waste half her life on a man like Zach.

Nicole was different. She was very confident. At least, judging by how much Clayton loved her, it was not a problem to keep this up for a decade or two.

As for the future, she would just worry about it later.

Although Nicole mentioned it casually, Clayton took it to heart.

Clayton secretly speculated what went wrong and could not keep calm at all.

He drove straight and missed the intersection to their house.

Nicole was stunned for a moment and reminded him, "You missed the intersection...'

Clayton smiled warmly. His eyes were pure.

"I forgot to tell you that I booked a spa session for you at my friend's new hot springs. You were in a bad mood today, so you should take a dip and relieve your stress." "What about Chatty?"

Nicole hesitated.

Chatty was still waiting for them at home!

Clayton could only abandon his precious daughter at this moment. "She'll be fine after she falls asleep."

Nicole nodded and did not realize Clayton's sudden change in attitude.

They arrived at the entrance of the hot spring manor. Nicole stood there and shivered from the cold breeze.

Fortunately, Clayton had a shawl in his car.

He casually draped the shawl over her shoulders.

Clayton's friend had been waiting there for a long time and came out to greet them.

"Ms. Stanton, thank you for patronizing us

Nicole smiled. "Thanks for your invitation."

Nicole liked to enjoy life, but she was unaware of this hot spring manor.

Clayton hugged her and went in. "This is a man-made hot spring. It's not yet open to the public, but there are a lot of people here."

Seeing Nicole's surprised eyes, Clayton quickly added, "This is also my first time here."

Clayton's friend followed behind them ?f-: WLP> said with a smile, "Yeah, I invited Clayton several times, but he always pushed it off saying he's too busy with work. I told him that he could bring you here too. In fact, hot springs are especially nourishing for women's skin. It's much more effective than doing beauty treatments..."

Nicole could not help but laugh.

Although Clayton's friend was flattering them, it was pleasing to hear.

As soon as they entered the manor, they saw many people chatting in the lobby.

Clayton was right. There were quite a lot of people, but not to the point that it was crowded.

Nicole glanced at the other guests and recognized almost all of them.

They were all familiar faces in the industry.

Was it a trend now to go to hot springs instead of bars and clubs?

However, Nicole was not excited to greet so many people and sighed softly.

Clayton held her hand and smiled as he said to his friend, "We'll take a private bath. My wife has been working all day, so she's too tired."

Clayton's friend immediately said, "Don't worry. I have it all prepared. Do you need a massage? I have both men and women!"

Nicole could not help but cast a glance at him.

Clayton's friend was afraid that Nicole would misunderstand and immediately added, "It's a proper massage. The massage therapists are blind. I'm all for public welfare!" Nicole could not hold back her laughter.

No, thanks.'

"Then call me again if you need me!"

Clayton nodded and led Nicole to the corresponding room.

Nicole pulled off her shawl and laughed.

"When did you meet this friend of yours? He seems quite interesting..."

Clayton raised his eyebrows. "I did a small favor for him before. I brought you here to introduce you to him."

Nicole smiled, and Clayton pushed her shoulders.

"Go get changed."

Nicole nodded. Since they were already here, she should enjoy it to the fullest.

Just as Nicole entered the dressing room, her phone rang.

Clayton took it for her. He did not comment because he saw that it was Julie.

Nicole glanced at him and answered the call.

"I just saw you! Did you come for a soak? Come out and say hello..."

Nicole was stunned. "Okay."

She put down her phone and smiled.

"Julie's here too. What a coincidence! I'll go out and say hello. Do you wanna come with me?"

Clayton knew that they were very close, so he did not know how long it would take for her to "say hello".

However, he could not stop her.

Clayton sighed.

"Never mind. Just remember to come back soon. I'll take a soak first."

Nicole walked over, hugged him, and kissed him gently.

"How sensible of you!"

Clayton smiled helplessly.

This woman was in full control over him.

Nicole happily took her phone and went out the door. As soon as she turned around, she saw Julie standing there, talking to someone.

They looked like they were waiting for her.

Nicole walked over, and Julie quickly waved when he saw her.

"Nicole, we're here..."

Julie smiled and hugged Nicole while she teased Nicole in a low voice, "I just saw Mr. Sloan coming in with you. Did I disturb your date?" Nicole clicked her tongue.

"I'm glad you're aware. We came out on a date!"

Julie laughed and winked.

"My bad... Let me introduce you to Cheryl Lichman, our crew's legal adviser."

Nicole smiled and looked over, but was slightly taken aback.

It turned out that Cheryl Lichman was Eric's female companion at the auction.

What a coincidence.

However, Nicole was less wary of Cheryl because Julie introduced them. Nicole became more friendly and casual.

She stretched out her hand to shake hands with Cheryl.

'Hello, I'm Nicole Stanton.

Nicole smiled kindly and gently without any temper. She looked so radiant and dignified.

Julie was pleased to see Nicole smiling at Cheryl.

"Ms. Lichman, this is Nicole Stanton. She sponsored a law firm that specialized in lawsuits for women back then. She was also a participant in a variety show and was very popular. If you're interested, you can chat with Nicole..."

Cheryl looked uncomfortable, but she still stretched out her hand to shake Nicole's hand. However, she instantly withdrew her hand after a quick touch.

She raised her eyes with not much excitement.

Cheryl was friendlier toward Julie than toward Nicole.

Nicole pursed her lips, looked at Cheryl, and then looked at Julie.

She inexplicably felt a trace of animosity and frowned suspiciously.

How did she offend Cheryl?

Julie also did not understand why Cheryl was acting like that. If she had known that Cheryl was so ignorant, she would not have called Nicole out to say hello.

She was kind enough to help Cheryl expand her personal network. So many people did not even have the chance to meet Nicole.

Julie took a deep breath and did not expect so impolite.

Julie smiled calmly and raised her eyebrows.

Ms. Lichman is a top law student. Unlike

us businesspeople, she may look cold, but she has a warm heart. She's very enthusiastic about public welfare projects. This time, she joined the crew to experience the sentiments of commoners."

Nicole smiled, looked at Julie, and said meaningfully, "You guys came to a hot spring manor to observe the sentiments of commoners? Your definition of commoners must be very rich!"
