There was nothing wrong with being kind or soft - hearted, so who was at fault here?

Julie could not figure it out when she was in her study, like she had reached a dead end.

Even though her innocence was proven, she could never face anyone again with those photos exposed.

Julie choked up and reached out to cover her eyes, blocking the light.

Tears flowed out along her fingers. The crystal droplets were blinding.

Kai stood up, leaned over to place his arm under her pillow, and bowed his head.

He leaned over her shoulder and hugged her gently. Kai patted her other hand. His voice was gentle and husky.

“It's all in the past. Just think of it as a dream. It's okay. It's all over now.“

Julie cried for a long time. Her voice was getting louder by the minute, which almost made the doctor come in.

She needed to vent, but Kai did not dare to let her cry any longer.

He coaxed her gently as he was still worried that crying so much would affect her head trauma.

Gradually, Julie's emotions calmed down.

Kai found the content online and showed it to her. Only then did Julie believe that this nightmare was really over.

Julie's eyes were red, and her face was pale as she closed her eyes.

How could people's light—hearted apology make her forget today's nightmare?

The shame struck her. She was hurting the most.

Kai's hand that was holding her tightened. He suddenly took something out from his pocket and silently put it on for her.

Julie noticed the cold feeling from the metal on her finger.

Her body stiffened slightly as she looked at him sideways.

Kai lowered his head and gently kissed her ringed finger.

“Jules, I never told you that from the first day we broke up five years ago, I've been regretting it until today. Perhaps you don't remember how much you liked me back then, but I still do.“

Julie looked at him as tears came out of her eyes. She covered her mouth to keep herself from making a sound.

Kai laughed in a low voice.

“I could only know about you from Lil N, and I didn't dare to inquire about you. When you wanted me to walk at your show last time, I was so happy that I didn't sleep all night because that was the first time you looked for me after the breakup. I didn't dare to tell anyone because I was afraid of being laughed at.“

Kai paused and became solemn. He looked at her seriously.

“Jules, but after this incident, I don't care if everyone laughs at me. I suddenly want everyone to know that the girl I like that I've been struggling to pursue, is you.“

Julie was startled and wanted to pull her hand back, but Kai did not let go.

She clenched her lower lip and looked at him.

He held her hand tightly, so much so that he wanted it to fuse into his own body.

“Since you don't like anyone else, and whether you still like me or not, let's start over and try again, okay? If you feel insecure and if you're willing, let 's get married. This time, you can call the shots. It's all up to you how we start and end.“

Kai used all his strength to say what was in his heart.

He was the high and mighty movie star who had been held up for half his life, but he could not afford to put on airs in front of Julie.

Kai just wanted to be humble to her. He wanted to see her smile and get angry.

If others dared to say one bad word about her, he would kill them.

When Julie jumped off the building, Kai felt like he lost his soul.

He could not wait any longer.

If he waited any longer, he would go crazy.

Kai could only be assured if he could protect Julie openly.

Julie's tears simply could not be stopped. Her shoulders trembled as she cried even harder than she did just now.

Julie subconsciously wanted to refuse because she felt that Kai was just taking pity on her for being someone who was laughed at by everyone.

Her nudes were flying all over the place, so what qualifications did she have to put up a front?

If people knew that the famous movie star Kai had married such a woman, so many people would poke at his back.

Why should she involve such a clean Kai?

Kai had always loved to maintain his spotless reputation, so how could she pull him down from the pedestal and dirty him?

Julie shook her head and cried. Words of refusal came to her lips, but she could not say them.

She was greedy.

Kai, who she had yearned for, offered himself on a silver platter. To make her feel secure, he could marry her and tell everyone how he liked her so humbly.

Back when her crush came to an end, she knew how hard it was.

By then, she had never regretted that she loved Kai. She also bore all the consequences by herself.

Now, his heart was also moved.

The tangled emotions were tearing her body apart. She did not know how to choose.

Kai touched her forehead. His voice was gentle as he said, “It's okay. You can think about it. Think it over before you leave the hospital.“

Julie paused for a moment. Her emotions stabilized.

She needed time to calm down.

His voice was drawn out with a slight tremor.

“Jules, please take pity on me and don't leave me alone…“

The sourness at the bottom of Julie's eyes came back up.

Julie closed her eyes. Her face was pale. She used an excuse to change the topic.

“K, I have a headache.“

Kai was stunned, then hurriedly stood up and ran out to find a doctor.

Julie sighed with relief. Her tears were still falling uncontrollably.

The doctor came over to do a checkup and also felt relieved.

“Your recovery is good, but you need to be hospitalized for a few days for observation. Rest well.“

Since this patient was related to so many people from Stanton Corporation, the hospital staff did not dare to be careless.

Thus, when Julie's health improved, the hospital

staff also felt happy.

It was a while before Nicole and Yvette entered the VIP ward together.

Julie was lying there with a pale face, and Kai was peeling an apple for her at the side with focus.

The light hit his well-defined fingers, which glowed with luster.

When Yvette saw this scene, she regretted barging in so suddenly.

Kai was interrupted.

Yvette braced herself and lifted what she was carrying in her hand as she smiled at Julie.

“I just went to buy your favorite custard buns. Aren't you ecstatic?“

Julie could not help but laugh.

“Do you think that I'll be that happy just for a bun?“

Kai put down the things in his hand. “Well, I'm hungry.“

Nicole followed in from behind. “K, Dominic called me just now. Your new movie's premiere meet and greet is today. Why don't you go over?“

Dominic spent a lot of effort on this call.

Kai frowned, took out his phone from his pocket, and looked at it.

Sure enough, there were two dozen missed calls. “My phone was muted. Don't worry about it.“ His tone was relaxed.

With Kai's standing, it was a surprise if he attended such a premiere. Even if he did not show up, he would not get scolded.

Julie paused. “You should go. Your fans have been waiting for this movie for a long time. If you don't show up, there won't be much hype, and the whole crew's efforts will be wasted."

Nicole blinked.

She seemed to understand that Julie did not want Kai to be here the entire time.

After some thought, Nicole went over to urge him.

“K, listen to Jules. I'll take good care of her. It's only two or three hours anyway. I promise I won't leave her side."

Read Chapter 1053 of The Divorced Billionaire Heiress-By I Wanna Eat Meat

Kai did not want to leave at all. He did not care about the crew's efforts.

For him, his mission was complete as soon as he finished filming.

The rest of the publicity activities like the premiere and so on were just too troublesome.

However, since Julie and Nicole said so, Kai could not find a reason to refuse.

After a few seconds of hesitation, he stood up. Kai looked at Nicole and instructed her seriously.

“Take good care of her. Don't leave her side, not even one step away!“

Nicole nodded solemnly. “Don't worry!“

Kai reached out to hold Julie's hand before he left reluctantly.

Once he left, Yvette could not help but cover her face.

“OMG! Since when did Kai become such a mushy person? I'm jealous!“

Nicole laughed and looked up at her.

“My third brother has always been like that. It's just that he was used to being held up in the past and usually wouldn't show it. He's actually very clingy, right Jules?“

The two people looked at Julie meaningfully. Julie blushed as she glared angrily at Nicole. “Why are you asking me?“

Although Julie experienced it herself, she could not admit it.

Nicole sat next to her and took the apple that Kai had just finished peeling. She carefully cut it into small pieces and put it on a plate, then fed it to Julie with a fork.

“Jules, since this has already happened, we're trying to figure out how to solve it. Right now, there's basically nothing threatening. My dad has already greeted the police, and we've hired the best lawyer. The online discussion about you has basically died down.“

“Thank you…“

Julie smiled with pale lips.

She knew that if Nicole had not used Stanton Corporation to suppress public opinion, she would still be suffering from this spiteful noise now and every day thereafter.

Then, once again, she could only jump off from a higher window.

Nicole pursed her lips. Her voice was a little hoarse.

“Jules, you know what? When I went to find that bastard Roman, I saw my third brother there, about to push him out the window of the 16th floor. It was very high, and if I was one step late, he might have really thrown him out…“

Nicole choked for a while and dared not imagine what would happen.

Although Kai was wacky, he was never impulsive.

He almost ruined himself the only time that he was impulsive.

Blatantly attempting to kill someone would completely ruin his future. He would go from a famous movie star with millions of fans to a

prisoner who would have to spend the rest of his life in the dark.

Julie's body stiffened. Her eyes widened as she stared at Nicole incredulously.

Julie was clueless.

She did not know that Kai had actually done so much for her.

What's more, she did not know that Kai 's previous humble expression of his feelings turned out to be true.

He seemed to have entrusted his whole life to her.

The ring on her finger was still cool to the touch, but she felt like it was burning.

The wall she built because of her poor self—esteem collapsed.

Tears came gushing out of Julie's eyes. Nicole bowed her head and sighed.

She did not know what to say. Although Nicole would love to see Kai's dream come true, she could not kidnap her best friend with her own thoughts.

Nicole could only tell Julie everything she knew.

Yvette was silent for a moment and chuckled.

“Jules, you're so lucky. Last night when you were in the emergency room being resuscitated, Kai went crazy. I thought that such a man could only exist on TV… You've always liked him, but you feel that he doesn't like you enough and will hurt you, so you don't dare to give it a shot. If I were you, I wouldn't want to waste another minute. We should live in the moment! The person you like also likes you back, so aren't you both lucky to have each other?"

Nicole looked up at her. Yvette's eyes were slightly red, but she was not really that emotional.

As soon as their gaze met, Yvette winked at Nicole. Nicole smiled.

After a long time, the only sound in the silence was Julie's deliberately suppressed sobs.

Julie's heart seemed to be clenched tightly. The heart -wrenching suffocation came rushing in. After a long time, no one said anything.

Nicole's phone rang.

She looked at it and saw that it was a video request from Kai.

“Quick, pass it to Jules…“

Nicole was speechless. 'Where are his manners?' She handed the phone to Julie.

Julie wiped her tears and took a deep breath to ease her emotions.

Yvette hurriedly helped her to sit up.

Julie took the phone and looked at the person on the screen.

The dazzling Kai was extraordinarily handsome.

Kai seemed that he was born to be in the highest place so that he could be sought after by all. He was really favored by the heavens.

Julie did not know what to say. Kai looked at her seriously.

“Why are your eyes red? Do you have a headache? Ask Lil N to get you a doctor!“

Julie curled her lips and shook her head.

Kai hurriedly stopped her. “Don't shake your head! You still have a head injury!“

Julie was stunned. Perhaps his concerned tone was so natural that her heart felt like it was wrapped in a warm blanket, protecting her heart that had just been stabbed.

Tears flowed out uncontrollably again, so Julie hastily shoved the phone to Nicole and covered her face with the quilt.

Nicole paused and picked up the phone. “I'm hanging up.“

After that, Nicole ignored Kai's opinion and hung up on him.

Ten minutes later.

Nicole saw that the information online about Julie was pretty much controlled.

Those photos also disappeared without any trace.

When she refreshed her feed, she saw the latest headline and froze.

[Kai runs away from the premiere!]

When Nicole saw this, she felt an oncoming headache.

Yvette obviously saw it too. “No way!“

Nicole looked at Julie, who did not know anything, and pursed her lips as she handed the phone to Julie.

“Jules, you've only been separated for less than two hours…“

Julie was also very confused when she looked at the trending topic.

The netizens were in a frenzy.

[Kai took a five-year break from filming and ran away after appearing for five minutes?]

[I was there! Kai seems to have taken a phone call and ran away. It must be an important person. I recall some paparazzi mentioning Julie Nixon…]

[The real version of the movie's male lead running away. I'm in tears without you at the premiere! I was looking forward to this, but this is all I got?]

[We fans are used to it! Hahaha… If he doesn't run, that's not him!]

[Is it because of Julie Nixon?]

The paparazzi squatted for so long in front of Julie's house but did not get any dirt on her. Instead, they saw Kai coming in and out of Julie's house, so they naturally would not let go of it.

Although there was no concrete evidence, the rumors were enough for the netizens to relish on.

When Dominic suppressed the news, he did not deliberately try to hide Kai and Julie's relationship.

Thus, the netizens were a little curious about this mysterious relationship.

Half an hour later.

Kai appeared at the ward in a hurry.

Under her two besties' gaze, Julie's face gradually flushed red. She did not dare to look up.

Kai ran away from the premiere just for her. “Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Kai did not even catch his breath before he looked at

Julie eagerly.

Yvette could not help but snicker.

“K, you're still worried even with the two of us watching over Jules? Do you know that you're in the trending topics again?"

Read Chapter 1055 of The Divorced Billionaire Heiress-By I Wanna Eat Meat

Kai touched his nose and coughed.

“How can I feel at ease when you guys do things? The trending topic is for today's premiere!“

He blatantly found excuses for himself. Yvette was speechless.

Nicole smiled and stood up. “Well, then you can keep watch here by yourself. We won't bother you.“

Yvette immediately stood up.

“That's right. We won't disturb you then!“

Julie still kept her head down because her face was red as hell.

If she had been firm in her refusal, she would not have cared at all.

However, her heart was no longer firm.

As Yvette said, Julie was lucky to be able to get requited love, so she wanted to be selfish this time.

Nicole and Yvette left the hospital.

Once they got outside, Nicole saw a familiar car.

Clayton got out of the car with a light smile hanging on his face. He looked at Nicole deeply.

Nicole smiled, then quickly jogged over. The two of them embraced each other briefly, and Clayton's smile deepened.

It had only been a short time since Nicole saw Clayton, yet she seemed to miss him a bit.

Yvette looked at this scene in shock and walked over speechlessly.

“Do you guys have to show off your love at the entrance? Are you rubbing it in my face?“

Nicole held back her laughter and discreetly let go of Clayton. She paused for a moment before she said,“ Let's go, we'll send you back.“

Yvette rolled her eyes at Nicole and thought, 'At least she still has a good sense.'

Clayton smiled. “Ms. Quimbey, that car seems to be waiting over there for a long time.“

He turned around and looked at a white Maserati not far away.

Yvette's face changed slightly.

Nicole was puzzled and looked at Clayton inquiringly.

Clayton gently squeezed Nicole's hand and looked back at Yvette.

“If you don't want to go over, why don't you come with us?“

Clayton was just kindly reminding her.

Yvette's expression was complicated for a moment.

“Nevermind. I still have things to do, so I won't be your third wheel.“

With that, Yvette carried her bag and walked towards the white Maserati in big strides.

Clayton calmly turned around to open the car door for Nicole, who smiled and got in.

He got into the car and instructed the driver, “Drive.“ Nicole asked, “Who came to pick up Yvette? Did you see it?“

Clayton nodded. “Sean Moore.“

Nicole's expression changed dramatically, and she was about to get out of the car.

“Stop the car!“

How could she stand by and watch Yvette jump into the fire?

Clayton helplessly and carefully held Nicole's arm and tugged on her hand.

“Nicole…“

“How could you remind her? Don't you know what happened to them before? Sean Moore hurt Yvette so badly, and he still has the nerve to come to her?“

Nicole vented out her anger on Clayton. Clayton smiled gently and was not angry at all.

“That's Yvette's own choice to make. Plus, they've been in contact with each other for a long time.“

Nicole blinked in shock.

Clayton explained, “I bumped into them once before at the bar when I was with a client, then I saw them twice more at the club. Earlier, I was just reminding her.“

Nicole did not say anything and froze for a few seconds.

“Why didn't you say so earlier?"

Clayton pursed his lips. “I didn't know that she didn't tell you. Maybe she didn't want people to know about it."

Yvette really did not want anyone to know about it.

Initially, their breakup was bad enough, so how could they still be together?

Nicole was a little confused.

She did not understand why Yvette did not say anything.

Clayton saw that Nicole was in a bad mood and paused for a moment.

“You didn't rest well all night, right? Do you want to go back and rest for a while?"

Nicole nodded and was still sullen.

Clayton sent her to the door and took off her coat, moving very skillfully.

Before Nicole could take two steps inside, Clayton went up to her and could not help but hug her from behind, then gently kissed her hair.

Clayton 's voice was deep and husky as he comforted Nicole.

“Don't be upset. Why don't you think about what gift you want to prepare for Kai?"

“Gift?"

“He's with Ms. Nixon, so don't you want to congratulate them?"

Nicole was blushing as her heart pounded. “It's not certain yet…"

Julie's attitude was ambiguous. It was not at all clear what Julie was thinking.

Clayton laughed. “After this incident, it's pretty certain."

Nicole looked at him suspiciously. “How are you so sure?"

“Shall we make a bet?" Nicole asked, “Bet on what?"

Clayton lowered his head to look at Nicole with a smile.

“If you lose, can you cook a meal for me personally?" Nicole was stunned. “That simple?"

Clayton chuckled.

Nicole suddenly felt a little guilty. She did not seem to have done such a simple request before.

From the moment they met until now, Nicole had only made Clayton a bowl of soup when he had a fever.

She nodded without even thinking about it. “It's a deal!“

Kai chased after Julie for so long without getting a response. Could it be that this time, Julie had finally thought it through?

Julie had always been the more rational one.

Clayton tucked a strand of hair behind Nicole's ear and looked at her with a smile.

“Go take a nap. I'll make something for you to eat.“

Nicole nodded and looked at the time. “Remember to wake me up. I 'll go to the hospital again at night.“

Seeing that Clayton nodded, Nicole yawned and lazily walked to the bedroom.

The day's fatigue suddenly surged. Nicole felt exhausted after a full day of continuous fear.

As soon as her head hit the pillow, she fell asleep.

Nicole woke up again from an aroma.

In a daze, Nicole felt her stomach growling.

She froze when she heard the lightened movements coming from her kitchen. 'Has Clayton been cooking here?'

Nicole quietly walked over and looked at the tall man who was wearing an exquisite black shirt. His gentle demeanor was tinged with a noble asceticism.

His movements were slow but fluid, and he seemed to be checking the recipe from time to time, converging his eyebrows in serious thought. He also deliberately lightened his movements.

Clayton was also wearing a cute apron that formed a huge contrast for a moment.

His body seemed to be glowing, which lit up her life. Nicole was momentarily dumbstruck.

She just stood there until Clayton was blocked from the light. He looked up at her and smiled.

“Why are you up?“

Nicole snapped back to her senses. She simply answered as if she had not heard his question.

Clayton 's hand movements paused as he raised his eyes to look at her.

“Were you peeking at me over there?“

Nicole immediately denied it. “Of course not!“ The man curled his lips into a smile.

“It doesn't matter. You can peek or look at me openly. Anyway, I 'm yours, so you can look at me however you want!“

Nicole's heart jumped. She suddenly felt like her face was burning.

Clayton was really a seducer!

Nicole looked up and saw that the sky was dark.

She immediately got anxious.

“I still have to go to the hospital!" Clayton helplessly called out to her.

“Ms. Nixon has been discharged from the hospital this afternoon."

Nicole froze.

Why did things always develop one step faster than her?

Clayton washed his hands, poured her a glass of milk, and walked over to hand her the glass.

“Look at the trending topics. The whole country knows about it."

Nicole was even more amazed.

She inexplicably took her phone and looked at the trending topics. The top three trending topics were the following:

[Kai's sweetheart exposed! ] [Kai Stanton and Julie Nixon! ] [Kai is not gay!]

Read Chapter 1057 of The Divorced Billionaire Heiress-By I Wanna Eat Meat

Nicole was shocked. She held back her laughter and clicked into the trending topics to take a look.

It was at dusk when Kai carefully shielded Julie in his arms as they walked out of the hospital and were photographed.

In the photo, the two of them did not wear masks and sunglasses. They appeared in the public eye openly.

Julie was very calm and gently put her hand on Kai's arm.

Her expression was clear and cold.

Kai had a look of caution. The heartbreak and protectiveness in his eyes were pretty much written on his face.

This was the superstar Kai that mere mortals could not approach.

The reason why the word “sweetheart“ appeared was that everyone saw the couple's ring that they were wearing.

For a moment, the online discussion could not be suppressed, and this incident shot up to the trending topics.

The servers were even down for a while.

Forty minutes later when the servers were back up, countless netizens' comments came flooding in.

[Kai is married?! I always thought he was gay! I'd rather he was gay!]

[It's true that Kai and Julie are together… Thousands of single women collectively lost their love today!]

[No wonder that matter with Julie Nixon was suppressed so quickly. I guess they didn't expect Julie to be Kai's woman?]

[What's up with those nudes though? Kai, don't get cheated!]

[Julie Nixon was framed! The police even released a statement. Roman is just an *ss!]

[As long as Kai is happy, we'll support you in tears!]

[Isn't Kai usually arrogant? He looks so humble here that we haven't even seen this side of him in movies. I've really seen it all now!]

Nicole was shocked as she looked at the following netizens' comments for a while.

There were mixed comments, but none of it matters.

Since Kai dared to take Julie out openly, he would not bother about what others say.

Moreover, if Julie dared to go out with Kai, that meant that she must have thought it through.

Nicole laughed. 'Isn't this too sudden?'

Clayton brought out the dishes to the table and went over to remind her.

“If you don't eat soon, the food will get cold…“ Nicole quickly went over. “They're really together

now? How did you guess it so accurately?!“

Before Nicole went to bed, Clayton made a bet with her and won just like that.

Clayton chuckled. His face was gentle.

“How could any girl refuse Kai's conditions? Even if Ms. Nixon had her concerns, after this life and death situation, she'll still think clearly.“

Nicole still felt incredulous.

She was thinking if she should message Julie to confirm.

Clayton reached out and took Nicole's phone. He said with a doting voice, “Let's eat first?“

Nicole smiled and nodded. There were three dishes and a soup on the table, which was very common.

The pineapple fried rice dish in the middle looked very tempting.

Her gaze flickered. “Were you making this pineapple fried rice all afternoon?“

Otherwise, how could Clayton only make three dishes in one afternoon?

The most complicated dish here was the pineapple fried rice.

Clayton pursed his lips.

“Well, it took an hour to buy the pineapple, an hour to peel it, and the subsequent process is very troublesome!“

Nicole seriously suggested, “But ordering takeout only takes fifteen minutes!“

Clayton looked at her helplessly. Nicole carefully redeemed herself.

“I was just thinking of how precious your time is, so don't waste it on something like this. I'll be just as happy if you order takeout for me."

She would be happy from the bottom of her heart! Clayton's gentle eyes were smiling.

“I don't feel that it's wasted. Every minute spent on you makes me happier than the millions I earn."

Nicole paused. 'There are really people who treat money like dirt, and I've met him!'

Read Chapter 1058 of The Divorced Billionaire Heiress-By I Wanna Eat Meat

As a woman who was serious about her career, Nicole would love to persuade Clayton to be calm in his feelings.

However, on second thought, Clayton was only not calm when it involved Nicole, so it did not seem so bad.

Moreover, the feeling of being taken seriously felt very nice.

Nicole nodded at the thought and smiled at Clayton. “I can relate.“

'I can relate to how happy he is. The happiness and wholesome feeling when I make millions of dollars is simply too addictive! '

Clayton froze, and his smile deepened.

Just as he was about to say something, Nicole lowered her head and started to eat.

He swallowed back his words.

A moment later, Clayton's phone rang several times.

The cost of delaying an afternoon of work was to prioritize the most urgent matters.

Thus, Clayton had no choice but to leave first. Nicole sent him out and finished her portion. She then hurriedly tried to call Kai.

His line was busy.

Nicole paused and called Julie. Coincidentally, her line was also busy.

She simply sent a message to Julie. [Is it real?]

In less than half a minute, Julie's phone call came through.

Her best friend was really much more reliable than her own brother.

“You saw it?“ Julie asked.

Nicole laughed. “How can I not see it? You guys… This is too sudden! Your body hasn't even recovered yet…“

Julie said, “It's all the same if I rest at home, but I just want to take this opportunity to settle everything, lest I live in fear.“

“Live in fear?“

Nicole did not understand Julie. What was there to be scared of?

“You saw how those photos traumatized me. Whether it's today or a few years later, as long as my relationship with Kai is exposed, those photos will always be taken out as a joke…“

Nicole heard that Julie's voice was getting lower and felt suffocated for a moment. She instantly understood.

“Jules, the photo incident has been solved. It's not your fault, so don't blame yourself for this matter.“

“I know, if it was someone else, I wouldn't have this concern, but Kai is a public figure, so my scandal is considered a stain on his image…“

Nicole frowned. She did not expect this incident to be so traumatizing to Julie.

“Jules, you don't need to care about what those people that you don't even know think of you. As long as Kai is with you, no one else matters!“

There was a burst of soft laughter from the phone. “Mm, that's what K said too. Thanks, Nicole.“

“I want to thank you for taking in my lonely third brother. No matter what happens, I will always be on your side…“

Halfway through their conversation, Nicole received Kai's message.

[Why are you still not hanging up? You've been talking to her for so long! Hurry and hang up now!]

Nicole was so angry that she choked and secretly rolled her eyes.

However, Nicole could also understand Kai's excitement of finally being a couple with Julie. She stopped talking at an appropriate time and hung up the phone.

Nicole was also very happy and could not wait to meet the two of them to express her excitement.

One was her third brother who loved her since she was born, and the other was her best friend. It was simply the most wonderful thing that they ended up together.

Nicole happily went to put on a face mask when her phone suddenly rang again.

She thought that it was Kai.

When she picked it up and took a look, it was Yvette. Nicole's hand paused for a moment.

She was in a very complicated mood, especially after she heard what Clayton said in the car.

Yvette and Sean Moore were together again.

Yvette was obviously not such a person, but she was the one who was capable of doing such things — to defy the world and break free from social norms.

Read Chapter 1059 of The Divorced Billionaire Heiress-By I Wanna Eat Meat

Nicole thought about it for a moment, steadied her emotions, and picked up.

“Hello?"

Yvette's voice came through.

“Nicole, is Julie really with Kai now?"

Nicole laughed. “Yeah, I couldn't believe it either, so I just called to confirm."

Yvette's voice was brisk.

“That's great! It's good that they're together. They obviously like each other, so why do they have to put up so many obstacles for themselves?"

Nicole curled her lips. Her voice deepened as she said, “What about you?"

Yvette froze in silence.

Nicole really could not help it. If it was someone else,

Nicole would not even bother to ask about it, but that was Yvette.

No matter what, Nicole did not want Yvette to be hurt again.

Those gossips would just hurt Yvette over again.

Nicole then asked, “Aren't you also putting up obstacles for yourself?"

After a long time, Yvette's voice trailed off. “You know all about it?"

“He blatantly came to pick you up, so it's hard not to know about it.“

'Wasn't Sean Moore's behavior flashy enough?' Nicole thought.

Yvette paused. Even from such a distance, Yvette could feel Nicole's anxiety and disappointment.

“I also know that it's ridiculous, but I just can't control my feelings. Every time I see him, I can't help but feel sad, but when I don't see him, I just really miss him. I hate him, but I can't help but miss the joy he brought me. Nicole, don't you think that I'm pathetic?“

Yvette's tone was low and hoarse.

Yvette, who was usually in control of her emotions, ran headlong into Sean Moore, even if this man brought her into a whirlpool.

Nicole was silent and did not speak.

She could not casually judge Yvette's feelings, especially when Yvette was sincere about those feelings.

Yvette was different from Nicole.

Back when Nicole decided to leave Eric Ferguson, although her heart was ashen and disappointed, she still could not help but look at him longingly.

Yvette's current struggle was the same as Nicole's back then.

However, Nicole did not indulge in her feelings. Nicole did not want to get hurt for life, not to mention, she would not indulge in a little bit of guilt and become a moth to the flame again. Nicole was sensible and decisive enough to break away from this.

This was the decision that Nicole made, and Yvette made the opposite choice.

Yvette followed her heart to meet her selfish desires. This was kind of brave.

“Yvette, since you've made a choice, you must have the courage to face the consequences. You'll need to give an explanation to your mother as well as the Sheldon family behind Lance Sheldon.“

Nicole kindly reminded Yvette.

Yvette now had an engagement with Lance Sheldon, which would directly affect the cooperation and direction of the two companies.

Did Yvette really make up her mind? Yvette could not help but laugh.

“I know. I've also thought it through. My mother will at most beat me up. As for the Sheldon family, I'll go to their door to make amends. After all, Lance Sheldon probably doesn't like marriage alliances either. I may be with Sean, but I won't do anything too risky. We'll go by the mood. If we're unhappy, then we'll break up. We'll never get married anyway.“

Yvette seemed to have made up her mind. She spoke through clenched teeth.

“His marriage betrayal is a disgrace to me, so I don't ever want to carry such a name. This is my bottom line."

Yvette could be with Sean, but that was out of the indulgence of her emotions.

However, when it came to marriage, Yvette knew what it meant loyalty, love, beauty, kindness, and so on.

None of these qualities would or much less could exist in her marriage to Sean Moore.

They were just a couple that deviated from societal norms.

Yvette and Sean were two extremely selfish people that were together.

They only cared about their emotions and disregarded the network of interests affected.

Nicole paused for a few seconds and sighed. “Since you've decided, I wish you all the best.“

Yvette seemed to have completely stepped out of her obsession with Grant.

Yvette just felt a little resentful that she could not get Grant when she was young, but she felt even more regretful.

She was willing to hide her true feelings for Grant 's happiness.

Sean, on the other hand, was like a drug that attracted her because he had the same energy levels and connected to her soul.

Yvette was willing to ruin all that she had for Sean and was willing to break away from everything to be with him.

After they hung up, Yvette stood on the windward side of the balcony with a very relaxed expression.

She did not have to spend so much effort to hide this anymore.

When she turned around, she saw Sean's dark face staring at her from behind.

His eyes were dark with complex emotions intertwined in them.

Yvette was stunned and glanced at him dully.

She casually walked over. His scent of having just finished showering was very alluring.

“You're done with the shower?“ She asked casually.

Before she could take two steps, her arm was fiercely grabbed.

Sean's knuckles were distinct and a little white from exerting too much force.

His breathing was extremely heavy.

“Who were you on the phone with just now?“

Yvette's eyes were slightly cold as she looked at him and hooked her lips.

“Nicole.“

Sean's gaze was fixed on her.

“What were you talking about just now?“

Yvette looked at him silently for a moment. She suddenly curled her lips into a bright smile with a hint of mockery. “Didn't you hear it all just now?“

The veins on Sean 's forehead bulged. The emotions in his dark eyes surged violently. “You're not planning to marry me? That's your bottom line? Is that what you've always thought? I'm already divorced, so we can be together openly, and no one will dare to say a thing. What are you afraid of?“

Sean deliberately lowered his voice to restrain his anger.

Yvette raised an eyebrow and gently pulled her arm back from his hand.

She rubbed the place where she was pinched. Her tone was light and chilly.

“I'm afraid of embarrassing myself.“

If Yvette married Sean, then she would forever be known as the mistress.

No one cared if Yvette meant it or not.

Everyone would look at her differently and poke her in the back.

“Look, she turns out to be a mistress who destroys other people's families!“

“How can a woman like this still have the guts to come out in the open? Aren't you afraid of retribution?“

“The mistress can finally stand tall once she's a legal wife.“

Yvette had always been frank and never cared about what others thought of her, but she cared about this.

She was afraid that she would be criticized forever because she was guilty as charged.

Even if she was made a mistress, she was still a mistress.

Yvette could not afford to embarrass herself and her family.

When Sean heard Yvette's answer, his pupils shrank. His face was tense and glum.

After a long time, he finally opened his mouth with difficulty.

“I've already done what I can…"

He really felt like a dagger was stabbed into his heart and forcefully twisted a few times.

The throbbing pain made every pore in his body feel the pain.

For Yvette, Sean could fall out with his ex-wife's family and lose that cooperation with Ferguson Corporation.

Sean resisted the heavy pressure and did not vent out a bit of dissatisfaction on Yvette.

He tried to find ways to come back to her and begged her to get back together.

She finally agreed.

Just when Sean thought that everything could be set straight, he heard her heart-to-heart talk with Nicole.
