Chapter 2363


    “I heard it was quite a dangerous ident. Fortunately, Nik- Miss Nicole was agile enough to dodge the


    car and avoid any critical injuries and life-threatening conditions. If she had retained her previous


    abilities, she should have been even safer. Unfortunately…” Ian stopped, his expression growing tense.


    “I’m sorry, Mr. Royce.”


    How could he bring up Nicole’s past injuries? It was a taboo topic that he ought never mention in front


    of Lawrence.


    In response, Lawrence cast a cold nce at Ian without saying a word.


    Ian lifted his hands off the wheel, feeling a chill down his spine. He drove on, not daring to say a word.


    The atmosphere in the car was tense, and Ian was growing anxious by the second.


    Leaning against his seat, Lawrence gazed out of the window into the dark night sky, lost in thought…


    The sun unveiled a new day.


    Nicole had a good sleep and woke up with a much- improvedplexion.


    After ncing at the bedside, she noticed that Jared was still lying by her side.


    “Jared Johnston,” Nicole said. ‘Did he sleep like this the whole night?’


    Hearing her voice, Jared opened his eyes and looked at Nicole. “I’m awake.”


    “Why didn’t you sleep on the other bed?” Nicole asked, noting the look of fatigue in his expression.


    “This ce is fine. That bed is too far from you,” Jared replied indifferently.


    Indeed, the other bed was a little too far away for him, so he had opted to sleep her instead.


    Nicole looked at the bed that was just about an arm’s length away, her lips twitching as she thought, ‘Is


    this considered far to him?’


    By then, Jared had already stood up, and then, he helped Nicole freshen up. “Breakfast should be


    arriving soon.”


    As he spoke, there was a knock on the door.


    “Come in,” Jared said.


    Max entered and ced the breakfast down, but then, he had a hesitant look on his face.


    Jared nced at Max and gestured for him to leave first. Having understood Jared, he walked out of


    the room.


    After sitting down, Jared had breakfast with Nicole, who looked attend to your matters. I’ll be fine.”


    Jared agreed when he knew that she too had noticed Max’s odd behavior. “I’ll head out first.”


    “Okay,” Nicole replied.


    She leaned against the headboard, took her phone, and intended to inquire about thepany’s


    situation when Lulu came strolling in.


    “How are you?” Lulu approached Nicole.


    “I’m fine.” Nicole smiled as she eyed Lulu’s look of guilt.” Don’t me yourself. It’s better for one person


    to be injured than for the both of us to be.”All content is ? N0velDrama.Org.


    “But if you didn’t try to save me, you might not have been hurt like this.” Lulu replied, still feeling really


    bad for Nicole.


    “I’m more agile and resilient than you are. If you had stayed put, the injuries might have been worse.”


    Nicole patted Lulu’s hand tofort her.


    Then, she changed the subject. “How’s thepany doing?”


    “Everything is normal. President Riddle said he will oversee it for now so that you can focus on your


    recovery,” Lulu replied.


    “President Riddle?” Nicole teased. “Shouldn’t you be calling him your brother-inw now?”


    “No.” Lulu’s cheeks reddened as she exined. “Even Miss Brito addresses him as President Riddle,


    so I should stick topany rules.”


    Moreover, she and Spencer were merely engaged, and had not gotten to the point of being married yet.


    Therefore, it would be a little awkward for her to call him her brother-in-w at this point.
