Chapter 331 ‘What nonsense is that?!’ Nicole turned to Jared with an impassive face.
“No such thing.
Don’t listen to him. Jared slightly raised his eyebrows at her beautiful face.
“I’d come even if he hadn’t told me that.
What brings you here at this hour?” Still, Jared wanted her to tell him what had happened.
Nicole’s expression softened gradually, an icy glint fading from her eyes.
Apparently, she knew Jared was worried about her. “Nothing major.” Although that was what Nicole had said, Jared was not as gullible as Claus.
He squinted his glacier eyes and exuded a dangerous vibe. “Let me know, or I’ll go meet your brothers at your home and have them ask you instead.” Nicole locked her gaze on his unearthly handsome face.
She could not help but chuckle at how he said it because he made it sound like a threat. ‘He’s acting like a kiddo who wants to complain to my family about this.
Do I look like a kid?’ Nicole’s eyes got even softer. C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
“Really, there’s nothing major.
I got annoyed when the classroom was crowded just now, so I dropped by to calm my mind. “Or I’m not welcomed here?” Jared’s gaze did not move away from Nicole.
He could sense that her mood was getting better, so he decided not to get to the bottom of it.
His smiling eyes made him come off as appealing. “Of course not.” His eyes remained on her.
There was nothing out of ordinary in his voice.
“You can call this place your safe harbor.” Nicole understood what he meant, her eyes smiling.
“Can I have a cup of coffee at this safe harbor? Jared blinked.
There was a faint gleam in his eyes.
“My pleasure.” Claus did not hear their conversation since he was a distance away.
But when he saw Jared walking over to him, he knew his boss was going to make Nicole coffee. Claus stood beside Jared and whispered to him, “Mr. Johnston, that kid is the youngest son of the Finley family.
He obviously has a thing for Miss Riddle.
A reckless 19-year-old brat…” Jared did not stop what he was doing.
He paid no heed to what Claus had said further.
Instead, he asked Claus indifferently, “How did Nicole treat that kid?” “Uhm…” Claus rubbed his chin and mentioned a phrase that described Nicole’s attitude perfectly,” As cold as ice.”
Jared gave Claus a half-smile.
That’s all that matters.’ After he whipped the latte to make it foamy, he brought it to Nicole. Claus, on the other hand, stood there in a daze for a few seconds before he recovered his senses.
He looked at Jared, trying to hint at something.
“That kid mentioned something about a diamond!” The moment Jared turned to look at him, Claus put away his flippant smile and sighed inwardly. “Mr. Johnston, did you give Miss Riddle a diamond?” Jared’s face suddenly became clouded, and his eyes darkened.
The only diamond he was aware of was the pink diamond he had seen at the Gold Session auction recently. ‘Could it be Harvey bought it for Nicole? That brat still has the balls to make a move on my girl.
‘Interesting.
I guess I’ll have a good conversation with him when we meet again.’
