Chapter 745


    But with what she knew about Lloyd, he could only turn back after he tried as hard as he could.


    Nachelle looked at the clear water-like sky that flew past the window outside with a hint of upset look


    on her face.


    If the path is wrong, one should not continue in the same direction. But she lost Lloyd back then and


    now felt guilty for him and could not help but give him whatever he wanted. So even if Lloyd’s rival was


    Jared, she would work hard for her son.


    Nachelle sighed tiredly. As she handed the reports in her hand to her assistant, her eyes spotted a line


    of text in the report.


    [The budget for the selection of female lead from major universities has been disbursed.]


    As if reminding her of something, she thought of Nicole’s approximate age, and her eyes glinted. She


    immediately picked up her phone and made a call with an unconceble joy in her eyes. 2


    Jared had brought Nicole back to his vi.


    Because of Nicole’s injury and the condition in the dormitory, Jared forced Nicole to request a leave of


    absence from Ms. Emerson and asked her to stay at his vi.


    Nicole did not resent it, either. Jared’s vi was the only ce where she could let her guard down.


    “Thank you.” Nicole looked at Jared gratefully.

    Jared still felt jealous. “I’ve done some digging in Martin’s background. Isn’t he Mr. Wyance’s son?”


    Nicole raised an eyebrow, not expecting Jared to act so fast.


    “I’ve only met him once.” Nicole just slurred over the matter.


    Jared’s expression was a little gloomy. “I heard he visited your house recently.”


    Nicole smiled, not expecting that he had even found this out. “Yes.”


    Seeing her smile, he got even more upset and drew her into his arms by force. “What was he doing at


    your house?”


    Nicole had never seen Jared so bothered about anything, so she decided to keep him in suspense.


    “Take a guess.”


    Jared was dysphoric. “Mr. Wyance is the future governor, and he cares about you very much. He was


    probably going there to propose a marriage.”


    Nicole could not help but burst intoughter, amused by how imaginative Jared was when he got


    jealous. “I didn’t know that you were a novelist.”


    Seeing herughing at him, Jared became furious. He pushed her down on the couch and pressed her


    underneath. “I’m not kidding you.”


    He looked so serious that Nicole got lost in the depths of his eyes. She smiled helplessly. “Put away


    your wild thoughts. I’m yours alone.”


    These simple words of hers had rid all his irritability and anxiety.


    Jared felt frustrated with his recent sense of insecurity. Now he finally calmed down. He looked at


    Nicole’s face, which was only a foot away from his, and could not help but kiss her.


    Nicole did not refuse as he came down with his kisses. She was also reciprocating his action, but it


    was clumsy.


    But Jared was more than happy. Upon getting her response, he was delighted and embraced her even


    more. It felt as if a century had passed before Jared let go of her.


    He stared at her blushed face and let out an evilly charming smile. “There’s some progress.”


    Nicole blushed even more when Jared teased him. She reached out and wrapped her arms around his


    neck. “It’s a vast improvement, mind you.”
