Chapter 1347
Soon after, Nicole began to notice something about the man. Hugh’s grandfather was suddenly
diagnosed with a serious illness. He had attempted to borrow money from all of the banks he could
find, but to no avail. Dayster, however, a huge amount of money were deposited into his bank
ount, and the sum was what he had used to pay for his grandfather’s operation.
‘Why would an average person suddenly receive so much money? I’m sure there is more to it…” Nicole
could not help but frown as she read the documents.

She immediately did what she could and located where Hugh was. She found out that he was in the
hospital.
She looked at the time and thought that it would already be toote for her to make her way there, so
she continued perusing the information that Zeke had sent her.
On the other side, Jared had just returned to his mansion. It was all dark and he knew that Nicole had
gone to Mrs. Wace Sr.’s ce again.
Because of this, he figured that he would have to spend the night alone.
He marched straight to his bedroom. Then, he took his phone out and gave Nicole a video call.
Nicole was still reading through the information when that happened. She picked her phone up and
looked at it after hearing the notification sound.
Seeing that it was Jared who was video-calling her, she hesitated and sighed. Tm just going to leave it.’
However, she did not realize that her fingers had identally tapped the green icon when she ced
her phone away.
Nicole went on to read the documents, not knowing that the call was already connected. Jared could
not see Nicole anywhere on his screen. All there was, was a sheet of white. He looked at it closely and
realized that it was the ceiling.
‘Why did she put the phone aside after epting my call?’ he thought, is she giving me the cold
shoulder on purpose?’
After waiting for some time, Jared could only hear the cking from the keys on the keyboard and the
mouse.
Not able to wait anymore, he took the initiative to speak first, “Why aren’t you talking after you’ve
picked up?”
Nicole, who was totally concentrated on reading the information was startled when she heard Jared’s
voiceing out of nowhere. She immediately darted her eyes to the door as she thought that he had
come to her ce.
However, the door was shut, and she could not see Jared anywhere.
She furrowed her brows as she attempted to figure out what was happening. “What’s going on?! Am I
hallucinating?”
Jared could not stop himself fromughing after hearing the way Nicole was talking to herself. “What
are you talking about? Are you putting on a show for me?”
Nicole stood up instantly after hearing Jared’s voice again, after which she checked every corner of the
room nervously. ‘Has Jared installed some hidden camera in here?*
“Jared, can you hear me?” Nicole asked while inspecting the room.
“Of course. Could you let me look at you while you speak?” Jared asked.
‘What does he mean? Can he not see me? Is it because of the angle?’ Nicole began assuming things.
’How am I supposed to do that?” Nicole asked. ‘I guess I just have to find where the camera is.’
Jared, who was holding his phone, was shocked by what Nicole had just said. ‘What is she talking
about?’
“Can’t you just lift your phone up?” Jared asked in confusion.
“My phone?” Nicole then went up to her phone and looked at it. “What’s happening?”
She did not remember epting the call, and as such, she had no idea what was going on.
“Nicole, what are you doing?” Jared asked with a puzzled look on his face.
All he wanted to do was look at her, but what she was doing truly got him stumped.
‘Jared, why was the call connected?” Nicole asked him another question instead of answering him.
“You should be asking yourself that.” Jared looked at her.
‘Did I touch my phone identally?’ she asked herself. ‘Whatever, it doesn’t matter, as long as he
didn’t do anything to my room.’
‘Why did you call?” Nicole nced at Jared and asked.
“Nothing much. I just wanted to look at you,” Jared said frankly.
