Chapter 158 I Won’T Bother You Anymore.
Without thinking, Peyton answered. “Are you not coming back tonight?”
Nolan could see a hint of excitement in her serious expression. He threatened her, and yet she seemed surprisingly happy?
Peyton was indeed quite happy. After all, for the past few nights, she had been sharing a bed with Nolan, and Nolan had always been trying to have a physical relationship with her.
No matter what Nolan was thinking. Peyton just wanted to be as far away from him as possible now.
Nolan pinched Peyton’s chin, his thumb caressing her lips. “You really wished I didn’t come back, huh?”
Peyton felt that her past actions had annoyed him, so she said seriously, “Of course, because now you are Helena’s fiancé. You and Helena are about to get engaged, and I don’t want to cause any arguments between you two. If rumors about you and me were to spread, it would also affect the stock price of the Dalton Group.”
After Peyton finished speaking, she patted Nolan’s hand. She assured him, “Don’t worry, I will never cling to you like I did in the past. I promise, you will have a pleasant evening.”
Peyton thought that after she had made such a serious commitment, Nolan would surely think she was responsible, and then he would let her go.
Peyton thought her attempts to please Nolan would make him happy. However, Nolan’s expression grew angrier and he squeezed Peyton’s
chin even harder.
Wasn’t she pleasing enough? Peyton furrowed her brow, pondering.
Nolan couldn’t sense any reluctance or sadness from Peyton. He withdrew his hand and coldly whispered in Peyton’s ear, “As you wish! Tonight, I will sleep at the Chase family’s.”
“Okay, then I’ll go back and have dinner first,” Peyton said.
Nolan couldn’t see any sadness on Peyton’s face as she immediately opened the car door and quickly got out.
Peyton walked away without looking back, she didn’t feel any sadness at all.
Nolan wondered, had Peyton completely stopped loving him in less than three months since their divorce?
Javson saw Nolan’s indifferent face in the rearview mirror. Jason asked cautiously, “Mr. Dalton, are we leaving now?”
Nolan took a deep breath. “What did she do today? Who did she
meet?”
“There was nothing special. She went to an art exhibition to see paintings, then went shopping, and finally spent the whole afternoon playing at some popular amusement facilities for young people. She didn’t meet anyone,” Jayson said. Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
Nolan frowned. “Stared at her.”
Nolan could confirm that Peyton didn’t have any special incidents with Phillip on the island, otherwise Nolan would really suspect that Peyton had developed feelings for someone else.
Nolan no longer hated Peyton, and in fact, as time went on, he grew to
like Peyton more and more.
Peyton’s attitude was the opposite. She no longer relied on Nolan. In fact, there was no longer any light in Peyton’s eyes when she looked at Nolan.
Nolan looked down at his phone. Back when he had a good
relationship with Peyton, she would constantly send him messages or call him. During that time, even if he was busy, he would always find time to reply to her.
Even though Nolan and Peyton’s relationship deteriorated later on, he deliberately distanced himself from Peyton. However, Peyton still sent him dozens of messages every day. Unlike now, she doesn’t make a single phone call or send a single text message all day.
When Nolan realized that he was no longer the most important person in Peyton’s heart, his heart felt like it was being tightly squeezed.
He wouldn’t know that Peyton has become cautious now, always afraid of angering him.
Peyton only hoped that she could stay away from him as far as possible, so as not to annoy him again.
Does she still have the qualification to interfere in his life, considering her current identity?
Moreover, in the past two years, Peyton’s heart seemed to have been stabbed countless times by Nolan and Helena. No matter how deep Peyton’s love for Nolan was, she had long given up.
Peyton–returned to the room without looking back, she didn’t even have dinner.
She could imagine the dead body she saw during the day as soon as she closed her eyes.
Peyton only wished that Phillip could uncover the truth as soon as possible.
Peyton went to sleep after taking a shower. She had no idea that Nolan kept glancing at his phone.
He said he would stay at the Chase family. He didn’t believe Peyton would really be indifferent.
Nolan had waited for so long, thinking that Peyton would have called.
