Chapter 944 She Didn‘t Like Him That Much
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?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNicole 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 i ta 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?”

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 Clayton taking advantage of her?
