Chapter 2275 Blind Date
Nicole smiled and walked in.
Kai hugged Julie from behind and spun her around happily.
"Jules..."
Julie pushed him away and smiled.
'You were holding hands with a little girl in a mall abroad, and that made headlines. Don’t think I forgot about it!"
Kai was taken aback for a moment before he realized what Julie was talking about.
"I'm innocent! That girl is Chatty! She's such a shopaholic and pestered me to buy things for her...”
As such, the paparazzi misunderstood the situation and described Chatty as Kai's illegitimate daughter.
However, Dominic Young quickly blocked this news from spreading.
Kai did not expect Julie to know and pay attention to it.
This showed that Julie had always been paying attention to news about Kai.
Kai smiled and leaned over to Julie.
"Next time, I'll hold your hand, so don't be jealous!”
Nicole looked at Floyd, who was sitting in the living room with a cold expression.
Grant and Kai obviously did not intend to help her.
Thus, Nicole had no choice but to walk over by herself. She hugged Floyd's neck from behind and said in a soft voice,
"Dad, I'm sorry that I made you worry so much that you couldn’t sleep. Look, you've aged a few years in just a few
days..."
Before Nicole finished speaking, Floyd stood up angrily.
"Go away! Are you trying to piss me off?"
Nicole looked at him with a smile. "Well... I’d be lying if I said you look a few years younger..."
Floyd gritted his teeth and told himself not to be mad at his own daughter.
Everyone ate a meal together happily.
Floyd was clearly in good spirits, and Nicole kept praising Mr. Anderson's soup.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBefore this, Nicole did not realize how much she missed home-cooked food.
After being abroad for a while, she felt the difference.
They hired a famous Michelin chef, but the food he made was just average.
However, Nicole was not too picky.
Seeing that everyone was eating happily, Floyd put down his chopsticks and cleared his throat seriously.
Everyone stared at him.
"Dad, just speak up if you have something to say!"
Kai said.
Floyd looked at Nicole and said in a non-negotiable tone, "Clayton is gone for some time now. Your pain has dulled
after this experience, right?"
Nicole did not understand what Floyd meant, but she nodded anyway.
It was true, but it was not because time had dulled the pain.
Nicole just could not tell Floyd the reason yet because she was not sure herself.
She did not want her family to worry about him too.
Floyd looked at Nicole and said in a deep voice, "So... My friend's son has just returned to Mediania recently. I think
he's a decent guy. You shouldn’t close yourself off to others, and you have to learn to date again like before
Kai could not help but smirk.
He asked, "Dad, are you making Nicole go on a blind date? That's so lame! Don't we have the freedom to love?"
Floyd was a little caught off guard when Kai put it so bluntly. He felt a little awkward as he said, "Well, most people
in our circle got acquainted on a blind date. Having the freedom to love like our family is simply rare.
Besides, I didn't say it was a blind date. I just wanted Nicole and that boy to get to know each other."
Floyd turned to look at Nicole with a fixed gaze.
"I'll get mad if you don't agree to it!"
Floyd did not look like he was joking.
Nicole could see what her father was trying to do.
Floyd intended to add some catalysts to her life. It was better than letting Nicole stay put.
However, she would be in a difficult position if she agreed.
After a few seconds, Floyd found a compromise for them.
"Of course, I didn’t force you to date him. I just admire my friend's son. He just returned to Mediania and plans to
find a job here. He doesn’t want to work in his father’s company and plans to practice elsewhere. So, I told him to
work for you."
Grant raised his eyebrows and realized that his father was a master manipulator.
Nicole did not even have a chance to refuse.
More importantly, even if Nicole did not like him, she could not kick him out.
Floyd was planning for the long term.
Nicole knew that Floyd had been anxious and worried for her while she was in a coma.
If she refused at this time, it would be hard to repair her relationship with her father.
Thus, she smiled and nodded.
"Okay. I’ll take good care of him.” 1
Floyd breathed a sigh of relief. A bright smile immediately appeared on his face as if he had gotten rid of a heavy
burden.
To everyone's surprise, Nicole did not have any plans to go to work in the near future.
She took a long break on the grounds that she was not feeling well.
Then, she took Chatty and Fischer home to her apartment.
Fischer had to go to school and had more homework than Chatty. But they still took care of each other in school.
Nicole felt much more relaxed after she moved out of the Stanton Mansion.
The maid who had stayed at the apartment was delighted to see them return to the apartment. 1
After all, it was boring living alone in such a big apartment and cleaning it every day without anyone to talk to.
Fortunately, Chatty and Fischer were very adaptable. Julie also lived with Nicole for the first few days.
However, when Kai was about to move in as well, Nicole immediately sent Julie back.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNicole moved out because she wanted some peace and quiet, so if Kai moved in, it would be pointless.
When Nicole was alone sitting at home and looking at the scenery, she no longer felt that sad or empty anymore.
It was probably because she had hope now.
Nicole took a sip of coffee. After a while, she heard the doorbell ring.
Mrs. Zoe came over and said with a smile, "Miss, there’s someone outside who said that he's your assistant. He came to
deliver some documents to you."
Nicole paused and replied, "Okay, let him in."
She was in a good mood. She did not expect Logan to be so diligent and thought that it was time to raise his salary.
Nicole felt bored at home, but she did not want to go to the office to meet the guy that Floyd had arranged for her.
Thus, she wanted to dodge him as long as possible.
Mrs. Zoe came in with the man behind her and said with a smile, "Please have a seat. Would you like coffee or tea?”
"Coffee, please. Thank you."
Nicole, who was holding a cup of coffee, paused slightly when she heard an unfamiliar voice.
She became vigilant in an instant and was no longer in the mood to appreciate the scenery outside.
Nicole looked back and saw that the person who spoke was a tall and thin gentleman. He was handsome and had a
bright and youthful smile that made him look like a fresh graduate. 2
She instantly felt tolerant of him and viewed him as a younger brother.
Nicole squinted her eyes, and her mood sank instantly because she knew who the person in front of her was.
The man had a decent and restrained smile as he took a step forward.
"Ms. Stanton, I'm Hamilton Scott, your new assistant. You can call me Milton if you like."
Nicole blinked. She repeatedly reminded herself not to show any weird expressions and smiled slightly.
"Ham, why are you here? Where's Logan? Is he slacking off?"
She thought to herself, 'Logan doesn't need a salary increment anymore...'
Hamilton was a little stunned when he heard Nicole addressing him as " Ham”.
It made Nicole seem like she was much older than him by giving him such a childish nickname. 1
