Chapter 2369 Revenge
Nicole and Selena looked at each other and laughed in a tacit understanding.
Clayton was confused about this gossip that had no context. He also did not know what was so funny about it.
Why were the ladies laughing so happily at the thought of running over one's husband?
It was incomprehensible.
When Nicole laughed, Clayton's heart skipped a beat. He feared that she would learn this from Selena.
Clayton coughed and calmly changed the subject.
"Isn't Julie here already? Why don't you follow her to the set to see what’s going on?"
Nicole paused and turned her head with a smile.
"Nah, it's boring. I'm not going."
Clayton was speechless.
The set could no longer attract Nicole.
The elevator arrived at Selena's floor, so Selena politely said goodbye to Nicole.
Nicole waved her hand. "If you need help, just let me know, okay?"
"Okay. Thank you."
Selena smiled.
Nicole gave Clayton a strange look.
She felt like something was wrong with him.
Clayton never interrupted her conversation with others.
'What’s up with you today?"
'Why is Selena so happy about running over her husband?"
Clayton asked the doubt in his heart and gave Nicole a meaningful look.
"You shouldn't learn from her."
The corners of her mouth twitched, and she could not help but laugh. She went over and grabbed his shoulders as
she trembled with laughter.
'Why are you so cute? Are you afraid that I'll run you over too?"
Clayton raised his eyebrows and glanced at her.

Nicole had a good laugh before she told him about Selena's situation.
Clayton's expression eased, but he did not say anything.
Nicole asked, "Don’t you feel sorry for her?”
"Nope."
Clayton spoke without emotion.
Nicole wanted to say something when the elevator arrived.
They saw Julie waiting at the elevator, happily stretching out her hands.
'The fondue arrived before you two! You really can read my mind!"
Nicole smiled happily and got distracted.
"Of course! I knew you'd like it!"
The two ladies walked in as they talked and laughed, completely forgetting about Clayton.
Clayton did not mind this and followed them slowly.
In the ward, Kai lay weakly on the bed. His face was pale, and he was clearly suffering.
However, this did not make him look any less handsome. On the contrary, he looked even better because of the
added fragility.
Kai looked at the people who came in and muttered in dissatisfaction.
"You monsters! How could you eat such delicious food in front of me when I'm sick and bedridden? Are you here to
visit me, or are you hoping that I'll die faster?"
The waiter had already set up the fondue pot on the table.
The ward was decorated nicely, and every piece of furniture was carefully selected.
Kai watched as they talked and laughed. All he could do was grit his teeth with hatred.
Forget about the two girls, what about Clayton?
Clayton was supposed to be his gentle and humble brother-in-law!
However, Clayton smiled and sat at the dining table, ready to dig in.
Since Clayton did not like to eat cheesy foods, he ordered a meat fondue for himself.
Kai, who was on the hospital bed, called out to him weakly.
"Clayton... Brother-in-law..."
Clayton heard Kai, turned his head to look over, walked over slowly, and gently patted Kai’s hand.
'Third Brother, I'm here.”
Kai took a deep breath, squeezed his hand with all his strength, and said with difficulty, "How could you let them do
this to me? Go and remove the fondue! I don't want to be tortured!"
Kai could only drink bland chicken soup at the moment. Thus, he could not stand stimulating his taste buds with all
that delicious food.
Clayton smiled meaningfully, loosened his hand, and patted his shoulder calmly.
"We'll leave after we eat. The table’s all set up anyway."
Since everything was set up, they should just eat first.
Kai’s eyes widened in anger, and his face turned paler.
"Clayton, you..."
Kai held out his hand in disbelief.
Clayton used to be nice to Kai and would rarely refuse Kai's requests.
After all, Kai was Clayton's third brother-in-law, so Clayton respected him.
This was the first time that Clayton rejected Kai so openly.
Kai felt that he was at a loss.
Now, Kai was not only physically uncomfortable but also mentally uncomfortable.
Clayton patted Kai's hand with a meaningful smile.
'Third Brother, Nicole and I are going to take Julie to the set later to see her favorite male model who's making an
appearance in a movie. I
invested in the movie and invited him to make a guest appearance as a surprise for Julie."
Kai's eyes widened, and he was speechless for a while.
What surprise?
Kai suddenly understood.
This sly Clayton was still holding a grudge for what Kai wanted Nicole to do at Julie’s birthday party!
Clayton was at the door, and sure enough, he heard everything.
At that time, Clayton acted as if nothing was wrong, but he secretly held a grudge until today!
In an instant, Kai felt suffocated. His face became livid.
After Clayton finished speaking, he quickly stood up.
Nicole and Julie had already reserved a place for Clayton.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Come over and eat!"
Clayton smiled, walked over, and turned his head to look at Kai attentively.
'What will Kai eat?"
Julie laughed. "He can only have chicken soup. Don’t worry about him."
Clayton thought about it for a moment. He looked at the dish Nicole put in front of it that smelled divine and
stimulated his appetite.
Even Clayton, who was not that hungry at first, wanted to feast on it.
Clayton thought about it for a while. He casually glanced at Kai, who was weak and speechless because of anger,
and said with a smile, "I think I should put this bowl in front of Third Brother. Although he can't eat it, at least he can
smell it up close."
In front of people that he was familiar with, Clayton was not stern or authoritative. He deliberately dulled his edges.
Clayton seemed so considerate.
Kai pointed at him angrily. He was trembling and speechless.
Julie thought it made sense. She nodded, took the bowl, and put it on the cabinet next to Kai's bed.
"Look, Clayton is so considerate of you. If it weren't for him, you wouldn’t even be able to smell it properly."
Kai stared at Clayton firmly and thought, 'Do I even want to smell it if I can't eat it?! This is just torture! Okay, I see
it now. Clayton is a fox!'
The three of them were talking and laughing while eating. Clayton poured wine for the two girls and was very
attentive.
Clayton turned to look at Kai, who hid under the quilt because he did not want to see anyone anymore.
Kai hated all three of them!
Downstairs, Derek was not at the level where he could afford to stay in the top-level intensive care unit upstairs.
However, he had a single room that was quite spacious.
Many people were surrounding the door of Derek's ward, including Derek's mean mother, Flora, as well as the
Nelson family.
Flora stood there arrogantly and looked at the money-grubbing Nelsons with a condescending attitude.
"She’s really something, huh? She dares to run over my son and doesn't even show her face! Aren't you a family of
scholars? Pooh! I should've known what kind of character she was when she ran away with someone else and
cheated on my son!"
