Chapter 1654 You’re So Brave
Nicole looked at it. It was from Kai.
She picked it up and put it on speakerphone.
‘What’s up, Third Brother?”
She spoke and pressed the mask on her face, afraid that it would fall off.

Kai said, “Dad wants you to come home to eat. He just caught some fish.”
Nicole looked at the man in the kitchen. Clayton’s back stiffened slightly, but he did not turn around. However, the
movements of his hand clearly slowed down.
She pursed her lips and spoke with a smile.
“I’ll go home tonight. We’ve already started eating.”
“That’s great! That fish is all mine then!”
Kai hung up the phone excitedly, not giving Nicole a chance to backtrack.
Nicole paused and peeled the mask off while gritting her teeth.

It was Kai and Nicole’s favorite dish.
Clayton heard it and came out. When he saw that Nicole took off the mask even though it was not time yet, he
paused for a moment.
“What crispy fish? Why didn’t you continue the mask?”
Nicole bit her lower lip. “I’m not in the mood anymore! Let’s eat. The butler must’ve cooked crispy fish. Kai won this
time!”
Clayton wrinkled his brows. “Do you like it that much?”
“Of course. I’d rather exchange Kai for the fish! It’s Mr. Anderson’s best dish, but unfortunately, it’s a lot of trouble
to make, so he didn’t cook it often as he got older…”
Clayton laughed at Nicole’s somewhat regretful look.
“It’s rare to see you get angry over a fish. Looks like it’s really good. I’d like to try it when I have the chance.”
Nicole raised her brows. “No problem. We’ll go back tonight!”
Then, Nicole sent a message to Mr. Anderson, asking him to prepare in advance.
For Clayton’s sake, the butler would not refuse.
Nicole only sighed in relief when she got the reply from Mr. Anderson.
Clayton looked at her with a smile. “Do you want to go shopping later?”
Nicole raised her eyebrows.
Clayton said, “Don’t you lack a bag-carrier?”
Nicole laughed. “Are you going to be a bag-carrier? Forget it. You might as well ask them to send the goods over for
me to pick. I don’t want to waste time. There’s no sense of accomplishment when shopping with men.”
Only women would have sharp opinions for other women.
Clayton shrugged. “That works too.”
Nicole said, “I’ll have to go to the office later. Grant has been looking for me several times. If I drag it on, he’ll bring
Aida over and find trouble with you!”
Clayton was stunned and expressed his understanding with a smile.
“That’s true. Aida is pregnant, so Grant has to take some time off to spend more time with her. You can’t avoid
that.”
Nicole sighed. It was all for her future nephew or niece.
“You’re afraid that my family’s trust in you will be affected, right?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNicole spoke meaningfully.
Clayton said, “I just managed to let them think favorably of me, but it’s not so positive yet. I hope it’ll last longer.”
He did not hide it. There was not the slightest hint of discomfort in Nicole’s heart when she heard it.
In the afternoon.
Clayton sent Nicole to Stanton Corporation and went to his own office.
As soon as Nicole went in, she was warmly welcomed by Logan and the others.
The lady at the front desk lit up with surprise when she saw Nicole.
“Ms. Stanton, you’re back from the South Pole?”
This was the reason for Nicole’s many days of disappearance that Grant came up for her.
Everyone envied Nicole, who could take a vacation anytime and anywhere.
Nicole laughed. “Yeah, I missed you guys too much, so I came back early.”
She joked and laughed with the people around her, then entered the elevator. Her personality was easy-going, so
everyone felt more cordial when they saw her.
Logan brought in a cup of coffee and placed it on her desk.
*President, Mr. Lichman from J&L Corporation wants to talk to you about the cooperation.”
