Chapter 62 I Was Best At Taking Care Of Men

Lucian awkwardly laughed. He couldn’t accept Kadence’s nickname for him.

“That guy wasn’t as handsome as you. He always had a straight face, like this.”

Kadence learned Lucian’s expression. Lucian quickly dragged her into the car. Kadence patted the seat beside her. “You look good. Do you want me to take care of you?”

Lucian was about to refuse, but Kadence added, “I am really good at taking care of men. My ex– boyfriend became very strong because of

me…”

Lucian was speechless.

Peyton didn’t expect to see Nolan here. But she quickly suppressed her uneasiness. She calmly asked, “Kadence…”

Nolan put out his cigarette and said, word by word, “Lucian would take her home.”

Peyton trusted Lucian. However, she did not want to stay here with Nolan.

He stood with one hand in his pocket, as snowflakes gently danced around him. The scene was breathtakingly beautiful. He turned towards Peyton and said, “Do you want to chat with me?”

Peyton didn’t look at him. “Mr. Dalton, I haven’t been in contact with any other men recently. I even unfriended Mr. Russell on Facebook. I immediately run away when mosquitoes come near me.”

“So you

also unfriended me on Facebook?” Nolan gritted his teeth.

“I didn’t delete your number. If you call me, I will answer.”

“Peyton.”

“Mr. Dalton, you don’t need to drive me. The car I called has arrived.”

Peyton jumped into the car as if escaping. She was just about to close the door when Nolan reached in with one hand. His wrist was adorned with a million–dollar watch, shimmering under the streetlight.

Nolan stood by the car. His tall figure blocked the light from the streetlamp behind him. NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.

Large snowflakes fell down. Soon, a thick layer of snow accumulated on his shoulders and head.

Nolan wedged his arm against the car door, appearing dominant.

Nolan stared at Peyton’s face and said calmly, “Let’s talk.”

He intensified his tone, which was a dangerous signal.

Peyton looked up and saw his slightly raised chin, feeling his innate nobility.

His tall figure blocked the outside light and snow, making the already cramped carriage feel even more oppressive and cramped.

Peyton was overshadowed by Nolan. Throughout this marriage, she was always in a disadvantaged position, with no choices.

Peyton stared calmly at him, “Are you going to do it now?”

It seems that there was no contact between them except for that agreement.

Nolan didn’t know how to respond.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Peyton closed the car door and coldly instructed the driver, “We can go now.”

In the wind and snow, Nolan’s figure gradually faded away. Her dream from her student days also became more and more distant.

That night, Peyton was constantly worried. She was afraid of being retaliated against again. Nolan finally took a few days off, but Helena was about to start causing trouble.

Soon, Peyton heard that Helena was going to demolish the Schmitt’s house and turn it into an animal farming and slaughterhouse.

Kadence scolded her for a full half hour in anger. “What is wrong with her? If it were possible to build a crematorium in that area, she would do it. She is targeting you.”

Peyton’s face turned grave as he thought, “Helena is indeed ruthless. She doesn’t live in that mansion, nor does she sell it. She wants to use it to provoke me.”

The house could be used for commercial purposes or as a residence. However, its backyard has a historically old building and the tomb of the Schmitt family ancestors. They had planned to move the tomb, but an expert said that moving it would affect the Schmitt family’s business, so ultimately the tomb was not moved.

Peyton didn’t believe this statement. Helena targeted her, but Peyton didn’t care. However, when Helena wanted to demolish her ancestors‘ graves, Peyton couldn’t just stand by anymore.
