Chapter 1685 The Situation isn’t Good
Clayton also did not have an appetite. He put down the cutlery, slowly wiped his mouth, and cleaned up while she
opened her gifts.
What Nicole enjoyed was obviously the process of opening presents.
As soon as she took them out, Clayton knew that a large portion of these things would be put away
Nicole came out of the dressing room happily. The smile on her face still had not faded.
Clayton walked over and hugged her. The implication in his eyes was clear.
“Let’s go take a shower?”
Nicole froze and blushed slightly.
Of course, she knew what was going to happen next. There was even vague anticipation in her heart.
She nodded and ran to the bathroom. Just as she was about to close the door, a hand stopped
her.

Nicole looked at him with her hazy eyes that flickered. “We can’t…”
“We can…”
Clayton did not give her the opportunity to refuse. He lowered his head and wrapped his arms around her waist,
kissing her while bringing her inside. He turned on the shower along the way, and the two people were instantly
drenched together.
The two of them were entangled for an unknown amount of time. Nicole did not even have the strength to lift her
fingers. She lay on the bed unmoving like a puddle of water.
Behind her, Clayton gently covered her with the quilt and planted a soft kiss on her forehead.
Nicole thought he still wanted more and suddenly panicked, then pushed his arm away.
“No more…”

Clayton still had energy for another round, but his heart broke when he saw her looking so tired
He answered with a hoarse and soothing voice.
“Okay, go to sleep.”

settled down.
Nicole relaxed and she fell asleep as soon as her head touched the pillow.

“Tell Lil N to come to the hospital. Dad’s heart condition acted up again. The situation isn’t
good.”

Clayton’s sleepiness instantly disappeared. “Okay. We’ll be right there.” He immediately hung up the phone and
picked Nicole up.
“Babe, wake up. Your dad is in the hospital…”

single minute.

before going out.

Nicole was extremely anxious. Her face was pale, and her body was cold, as if she was the one who fell sick.
