Chapter 534 Hard to Chase
Nicole curled her lips, and she inadvertently retracted her hand. "It doesn’t hurt anymore."
She looked at yton, whose face was tinged with slight anger, and the conflict in her heart
disappeared.
Lil Michael reminded Nicole that yton was an exceptional man, so there must be countless people
who would surround him. Nicole did not know anything about him except for his deceased ex-wife.
How could she think of him as a nk sheet of paper?
Nicole returned to her senses in time, never dragging her feet.
yton slowly and methodically put down the first aid kit. He could not discipline his son with Nicole
around, so he had to maintain a decent smile.
However, there was no trace of warmth in his smile.
He withdrew his gaze, looked at Nicole, and exined patiently, "That’s impossible. My family doctor in
Liberty was a veryzy person, so I had no choice but t o learn first-aid knowledge by myself."
Nicole smiled faintly, her attitude was polite and slightly detached.
"It''s really fine. It doesn''t hurt anymore. This ointment is very effective..."
yton stiffened and lowered his head, seemingly at a loss. When he looked up again, his eyes were
modest and light again.
He picked up the ointment as if nothing happened. " I''ll go get you a new er.”
"It looks like you''re very well prepared, Mr. Sloan."
"I have a child, so I have to be prepared at all times."
Saying that, he gave Lil Michael a meaningful look.
Lil Michael stuck his tongue out and hid behind Nicole.
He was not to me. He noticed his father’s attitude that did not harbor good intentions towards his
Pretty Lady. If this continued, he would have a stepmother soon!
After dinner, Nicole said her goodbyes.
yton personally sent her back to Stanton Mansion, and thoughtfully stopped not far away.
The night was cool and still. The streetlights stretched their shadows.
yton said, "Don''t worry about the public opinion and the stock market. Nothing will happen until the
case is investigated clearly."
Nicole said, "Thank you." "You''ve already thanked me many times."
Nicole looked at him. "Mr. Sloan, there''s a piece ofnd in the Capital. Are you interested?"
yton looked at her with deep eyes, his gaze faintly stiffening. "What do you mean?"
"As repayment."
A repayment that drew a clear line between them.
yton was stunned for a few seconds before slowly exhaling.
"Ms. Stanton, it’s so hard to chase you..."
Nicole raised her eyes to meet his gaze. He smiled, his temperament seemed to meld into the
darkness, and his voice was firm.
"Forget thend. I think that such a beautiful night is much more noteworthy.”
After yton left, Nicole went back inside. Her mood gradually calmed down until not a ripple was left.
She took off her jacket and high heels and was ready t o wash her face when her phone chimed.
Nicole picked it up.
yton: [It''s very hard to chase you, but it’s even harder not to. Sweet dreams.]
Nicole looked at it but did not respond.
The other one was from Eric. [Nicole, there’s a package for you at home. Shall I send it to you
tomorrow?]
Nicole casually replied. [No need. Throw it away.]
Then, she turned off her phone and got ready for bed.

The next day.
Nicole got up early in the morning and went to the office. She was still worried about the cause of the
autopilot car ident. She had to solve it as soon as possible.
The person that J&L Corporation sent to Europe was Molly Stewart, which made Nicole feel a lot more
at ease because Molly was an expert.
Insider news from Europe came, saying that they were beginning to evaluate whether the Al chip
should be withdrawn from the market.
The case became more urgent, and time was of the essence.
On the day of the video conference, both Nicole and Eric participated.
In the conference room with a wide field of view, Nicole looked at the demonstration on the big screen.
The air conditioning was set to a low temperature, so i t was a little cold. Eric saw that she was only
wearing a thin dress, so he took off his suit jacket and walked over.
Nicole did not even move as she said indifferently, "I don’t want it. Save it."
Eric and the others in the meeting room were speechless.
