Chapter 2293

He figured that Nicole must like him, which was why she got upset and cried when he said those hurtful things. If she didn't like him, why would she block that stone for him? If she didn't like him, why would she always tease him to get his attention? His words must have really hurt her.

Leighton was feeling regretful when suddenly he heard a low chuckle beside him, which quickly turned into hearty laughter. Leighton turned to look and saw Nicole clutching her stomach, laughing so hard she was doubled over, tears streaming down he face, nearly out of breath.

"Be honest, have you never been in a relationship before?" Nicole asked, still laughing, her face showing no signs of sadness, only teasing.

Leighton realized he had been tricked by this crazy woman, and his face darkened. Estelle, in the front seat, was also laughing. He had thought this ferocious pit bull only acted tame in front of his cousin, but it seemed there was someone else who could tame him this way. Everyone had their match.

Leighton, embarrassed and angry, ground his teeth, i've had more relationships than you can count on ten fingers!"

"Like childhood pretend relationships?" Nicole mocked. "Was I your first kiss?"

Leighton froze. Nicole had been teasing him, but seeing his reaction, she was stunned, her eyes widening. "It really was me?!" Leighton, flustered and furious, shouted, "No!"

He was a terrible liar, which was why Nicole had immediately guessed he had never been in a relationship. Now, feeling trapped he decided to come clean. 'That wasn't a real first kiss. I did it on purpose to disgust you. It doesn't count!"

Nicole chuckled. "Good, I was worried you'd try to hold it over my head.'

Leighton wanted to bite her! Before he could act, Nicole's phone rang. It was her agent, Lindy Jacob. She answered, but the voice on the other end wasn't Lindy's. It was a deep, heavy male voice. "Where are you?"

Nicole's smile faded, and she didn't answer, instead asking, "What do you want?"

The man's tone grew heavier, repeating his question, 'Tell me where you are!"

Nicole replied calmly, "I just left the police station. I'm in my boyfriend's car."

The man didn't respond immediately, but the atmosphere turned cold.

Then he chuckled lightly. "Nicole, don't joke around. I know Leva came to find you at your movie launch. You had no choice but to find someone to act as your boyfriend."

Nicole pressed her lips together. "No, I'm serious."

The man, not taking her seriously, tried to soothe her. "Leva was out of line that day. I was abroad and didn't know until I got back. I've talked to her; she understands she was wrong. Don't be mad, okay?"

Nicole's tone remained calm. "I'm not mad. I really am in a relationship. Initially, we didn't plan to go public because he hadn't transitioned.

Suddenly announcing it might hurt his career. I wasn't upset about what Leva did at the launch. If it hadn't been for her, I wouldn' have known how much Leighton loves me, willing to go public for my sake. I should thank her."

Leighton had been eavesdropping on the gossip, but hearing his name mentioned, his face turned a mix of colors.
