Chapter 1018


    "Now this product has been sessfully made.It is called The Beacon, and it is in Nicole''s hands.I


    have seen it.Now the factory is ready for mass production, just waiting for the formality to be done."


    "This is a picture of The Beacon.Take a look first.I will bring Nicole over to show youter."


    Jared showed the picture of The Beacon on his phone to Mr.Johnston Sr.


    "Is this the product you invested in?"


    Mr.Johnston Sr.asked as he looked at the picture of The Beacon.


    "Yes, there may be no way to exin it in one or two sentences, but you will understand when you see


    the product in person."


    Jared was confident about The Beacon, believing that theunch of The Beacon would generate buzz


    and orders would follow.


    "If it is such a great product, ask Nicole to bring it over some day."


    Mr.Johnston Sr.spoke in a calm tone, revealing nothing of his thought.


    "Okay."


    "The Johnston family is an extended family, and I''m sure you understand that the phrase ''united we


    stand, divided we fall''."


    Mr.Johnston Sr.wanted the family to get along and did not like internal strife.


    "I will take care of it as I see fit."


    Jared knew his grandfather well enough to understand what he was talking about.


    "That is good.I won''t ask you to stay for lunch, as Nicole should be waiting for you at home."


    Mr.Johnston Sr.looked at him with a smile.


    "I will leave then."


    Jared got up and politely said goodbye.


    "Where are you?" Jared called Nicole.


    "I''m at the vi.Have you had lunch?" Nicole asked with concern.


    "Not yet.I''m on my way back to the vi."


    "You''reing back to the vi? You are free in the afternoon?" Nicole asked him happily.


    "Yeah.What would you want to eat? I will make it for you when I''m back."


    "It''s alright.Just tell me what you want to eat, or we will both probably starve to death when you finally


    arrive and cook," Nicole said with a smile.


    "Okay, then just cook whatever you like.I''m fine with it."


    "Okay, I will make it now and it will be ready by the time you get home.Bye."


    Nicole hung up the phone and walked toward the kitchen.


    Jared said to Max with a smiling face.


    "Check Henry''s branch officeter and see what''s going on there."


    "Got it."


    Half an hourter, Jared''s car pulled up in front of the vi.


    Jared got out of the car and walked into the house as Max drove off.He pushed the door open and


    walked in.


    Without Nicole in sight, he took off his suit and walked toward the kitchen, where a plump figure was


    busy.


    Jared quietly walked over and hugged her from behind.


    "What are you cooking?"


    "When did you get back? You walked like a ghost."


    Nicole''s heart throbbed for a second.


    "Just got back.Can I help you with something?"


    Jared liked the feeling of being busy in the kitchen with her.


    "Get a soup bowl to serve soupter," Nicole said.


    "Okay."


    It did not take long for a bowl of fresh soup and four small dishes to be ready, and Nicole served him a


    bowl of soup.


    "How about trying the soup I made for the first time?"


    "This is the first time you have made soup?"


    Jared looked at her with surprise.


    "Yes, don''t you feel honored?"


    Nicole looked at him with pride.


    "It is my honor.Just that, is this soup really drinkable?" Jared asked, looking at the not-so-pretty looking


    soup.

    "Ignore the appearance.This soup of mine doesn''t look pretty, but it still tastes good.Try it now."


    Nicole looked at him as if she was waiting for him to finish the soup.
