Chapter 2310

Nicole remarked, "You ran quite a distance, and I had to wander around searching for you for what felt like ages."

Leighton, with a hint of discontent, retorted, "I was just behind your house. Who do you think you're kidding?"

Nicole was surprised, "I thought you headed toward the main gate, so I searched for you along the main road. I never imagined you could circle around the back. I ended up walking in the wrong direction and making a full circle before I finally found you."

Leighton felt a bit relieved and quipped, "Who would've guessed you'd be this clueless? Why didn't you check the places with seating first?"

As for Nicole... She did indeed check places with chairs. Who would've thought he'd end up in the children's area with his long limbs?

"Wait, if I hadn't found you, were you planning on spending the whole night there?"

Leighton shot her a glare. "If you had made me wait all night, I would've tweeted tomorrow accusing you of cheating with a college student! Trying to frame me for infidelity, setting a trap for me to fall into!"

Nicole chuckled softly, "Your brain certainly has its moments. It grows back when you least expect it."

After a brief pause, she inquired, "You seemed really angry just now. I thought you had left."

Leighton glanced at her sideways, My clothes were at your place, my phone was in my clothes. Where else could I have gone?"

Furthermore, hearing her mention that the bossy guy had a heart condition, his anger subsided. If Nicole hadn't intervened just now and he had seriously hurt the guy, he wouldn't have been able to handle the consequences.

Feeling somewhat relieved after venting, Leighton asked, "Did the bossy guy leave?"

"He's gone."

"Good riddance!"

Leighton snorted and queried again, "You're not lacking in funds to buy a house, so why bother with their house and endure their attitude?"

Nicole calmly responded, "It was a gift from the elders, not something easy to turn down."

She didn't want to dwell on it further, but Leighton could sense from her tone that this matter might not be so straightforward.

Changing the subject swiftly, Nicole asked, "How did the contract termination negotiations go?"

At the mention of this, Leighton's expression turned cold. "Either I continue with the contract, doing mew shows or variety program's to En promote new talents for the company, or I suspend all my work until the contract expires.

Alternatively, I pay a penalty of 230 million for my freedom."

Nicole's eyelid twitched. "230 million? Do you even earn 200 million?"

She had never heard of such a hefty penalty since entering the industry.

Leighton remained silent, evidently not.

Most of the money he earned was invested in his small gaming comove mention 230 million, he couldn't even come up with 23 million at once without asking his family for help.

"Did you inform your family about it?"

"Why should I?" Leighton frowned, "This is my own business."

His father had always hoped he would fail in the entertainment industry, return home with his tail between his legs, and resume mnovelbin

studying to become a doctor. If he softened now and sought help from his family, wouldn't he have to abide by their decisions in the future? Choosing a girlfriend, having children, deciding their education-all dictated by the family. He had finally gained the right to make his own choices, and until the very end, he wouldn't seek his family's advice on anything.
