The Divorced Billionaire Heiress

Chapter 2339 Explosive

Clayton touched Nicole's head. His eyes deepened, and his voice was warm and clear as he said, "If you like, I can adapt."

The two looked at each other just as the elevator opened.

Ian came out to make a phone call, just in time to see the couple smiling at each other with affection. He suddenly felt like he was forced to watch them be all lovey-dovey. 1

He coughed and looked at the two with a cheeky smile.

"Aren't you guys going to come out?"

The two were stunned and walked out with a smile. Clayton stretched out his hand for a handshake, but Ian did not shake his hand and hugged him instead. Ian patted Clayton on the shoulder.

"Welcome back, Clayton!"

Clayton also patted Ian on the shoulder and felt touched.

'Thanks."

Ian glanced at Nicole and raised his eyebrows.

"Julie came early, but we’re expecting one more - Lance."

Nicole was slightly taken aback. "He hasn't left yet?"

Ian lowered his eyes slightly.

"It’s Yvette’s death anniversary soon."

Nicole did not speak and stayed silent for a moment. Clayton took her hand and said, "Let's go in."

The private room was dimly lit.

When Clayton opened the door and went in, he heard Lumi singing her heart out while Julie applauded on the side.

Everyone laughed and said Lumi sang well. When they saw Nicole and Clayton, they fell silent.

Ian said to everyone, "Come on, let's raise our glasses to congratulate Clayton for his narrow escape from death!"

Clayton did not expect everyone to be so enthusiastic. He thought this was just a gathering in his name.

Thus, he felt a little awkward.
