The Divorced Billionaire Heiress

When Clayton entered and saw this scene, his face instantly became gloomy.

Nicole stood aside and watched. Her eyes flickered, but she did not make a sound.

She knew that Clayton had always taken his business seriously. Even if he did not want to continue running this

restaurant, it was definitely because he was not interested, not because of other factors.

Kira sat and cried at the entrance in such a wretched manner. No decent guest would come in and be in the mood

to eat there.

Kira's eyes were red. It looked like she had been crying for quite a while.

Seeing Clayton coming in, everyone held their breath for an instant. They instantly became serious and were no

longer in the mood to watch the show as they were in the beginning.

Kira was originally sitting there, but when she saw Clayton, she subconsciously stood up. However, she could not

stand firmly and fell back on the chair.

Nicole’s expression changed subtly when she looked downward.

Only then did she realize that Kira’s right leg was amputated.

For some reason, one of her prosthetic limbs was broken into two pieces on the ground next to her.

Kira saw Nicole beside Clayton, and for a moment, she felt embarrassed and wanted to hide her leg and prosthetic

limb.

However, it was no use at all.

She could only raise her eyes to look at Clayton. She looked so pitiful and depressed.

"Boss, I really have nowhere to go. Please let me come back. I don’t mind doing odd jobs or being a dishwasher! I'll

accept anything!"

Kira said as tears streamed down her face.

When she cried, she did not look pitiful, but rather miserable.

The colleagues next to her dared not speak up for her.

Although Kira was arrogant, she knew how to get into people's good graces because she was in the modeling

industry for a while.

Thus, some of her colleagues thought that she was a decent person.

However, they noticed that Clayton was not in the mood for discussion. Instead, he looked at Kira coldly.

Thus, no one dared to make a sound.

Clayton stood there with a cold face and did not speak for a while.

He glanced around and asked, "Where's the manager?"

Just as he mentioned the manager, one of the employees immediately said, "The manager went to get groceries

with the chef. There was a traffic jam on the road, so she'll be right back."

Clayton glanced at Kira coldly. His tone was harsh as he said, "There's no place for you here, so you should leave.

Don't make your former colleagues kick you out."

After Kira heard this, her face turned pale again. She opened her mouth, but she could not say a word.

Clayton did not say much. He just looked away and pulled Nicole’s hand inside.

He was relatively slow as he walked upstairs, but he was very steady. He was already very comfortable without the

help of others.

Nicole could tell that it was inconvenient for him to use the stairs, but when she thought that he would never come

back here again, there was no need to install an elevator.

Clayton went into the room and rubbed his forehead with a glum face.

Nicole raised her eyebrows. His mind was clearly in a mess, but he concealed it really well.

Clayton turned his head, and his throat moved slightly.

"I have nothing to do with her. I didn’t know when she came back. I hope she didn't affect your mood."

He knew that Nicole was wary of this woman.

If he had known that Kira would hurt Chatty and Nicole, he would rather see her die abroad than help her back

then.

He was just getting himself into trouble.

Nicole wanted to comfort him initially, but when she saw that he was so nervous, she changed her mind. She

deliberately sat on the bed next to him and said casually, "If you have nothing to do with her, why would she come

back? It looks like she understands your tolerance and generosity all too well. There should only be two reasons

why she would cling to you. One reason is that she has ulterior motives. The other reason is that you didn't give her

enough benefits. Mr. Sloan, which do you think you fall under?"

Clayton, who was gentle and apprehensive, looked a little helpless as he knew that Nicole was trying to make things

difficult for him.

However, Clayton did not plan to fool her and analyzed the situation with a smile.

"Probably the latter. I'm not a stingy person when dealing with my subordinates. She’s just too greedy."

Nicole pursed her lips. "Well, it’s quite pitiful that she lost a leg..."

Clayton was silent for a moment before he said, "She asked for it, so don't sympathize with her."

"What?"

"I found out later that she lost her leg because she deliberately tripped another model on the runway, causing her

to fall off the stage. From then on, that model's career was ruined. That model's boyfriend was not someone to be

trifled with. He found someone to break Kira's leg the next day."

Nicole was speechless. She did not expect it to be so complicated.

In an instant, the sympathy in her heart disappeared.

Clayton patted her head indifferently.

"Do you still feel sorry for her?"

Nicole pursed her lips. Before she could say anything, Clayton said in a lecturing tone, "How many times have I told

you before? Don’t be soft-hearted. The farther away you stay from such people, the better. You can’t get rid of her

once you get involved. She won't be grateful for your sympathy and will only ask for more. She'll find an opportunity

to cling to you, and if you don't help her in the future, she may even take revenge on you."
