After a while. Harvey came out of the changing room and walked into the living room, where he looked at Mrs. Wallace Sr. and said, Mrs. Wallace Sr., I suddenly remembered that there's something I need to deal with. I will pay you a visit on another day."
Mrs. Wallace Sr. looked at Harvey and upon noticing that he was behaving in a completely different manner than earlier, she thought, 'He must really have something urgent to deal with.’
"Hurry up. Don't let me keep you around for too long," Mrs. Wallace Sr. said hurriedly.
"Goodbye. Mrs. Wallace Sr." Harvey gave her a slight nod.
After he was done speaking, he turned around and walked out of the Sea View Villa. Harvey sat in his car and gave Nicole's bedroom one last glance before igniting his engine and driving off toward his place of residence.
After driving for a while. Harvey felt that the atmosphere in his car was rather depressing, so he reached out for his phone and played the list of songs that was compiled by Nicole. In an instant. all that had happened earlier came surging back in his mind.
"She gave me her own clothes, but why did she act like she hated me when I went upstairs to look for her? Am I thinking too much? But wait. She was bright red, so she was obviously just shy. wasn't she? Is this just another show of a woman's unpredictable nature?’
While he was pondering about this, he firmed his grip on the steering wheel. ‘Yeah. It must be, or else she wouldn't have turned bright red and avoided eye contact.’ Harvey confirmed his thoughts once more, and that was when his mood suddenly became clear again.
In the evening, Jared drove to the Sea View Villa, where he pushed the door open and walked in. There, he saw Tia watching TV with Mrs. Wallace Sr. in the living room.
As soon as Mrs. Wallace Sr. heard someone walking in, she turned to look at the door, and that was when Jared's figure appeared.
"Jared! What brings you here?" Tia happily stood up to welcome Jared.
Jared nodded in response, his eyes ranging over the living room, but Nicole was nowhere to be seen.
"Where's Nicole?" he asked.
"Miss Riddle is having a rest upstairs,” Tia replied.
"What's wrong with her?" Jared looked at Tia and asked.
"It's nothing. I think that Miss Riddle is feeling a little bit under the weather. I offered to call her a doctor, but she said she didn't need it."
"Under the weather?’ Jared narrowed his eyes. "I'm going to go take a look."
Jared and Mrs. Wallace Sr. both greeted each other briefly, after which he made his way upstairs to Nicole's room. He raised his hand to knock on her door as soon as he arrived.
Nicole was sleeping on her bed when she was suddenly jolted awake by a knock on the door.
"Tia, I don't want to eat dinner,” Nicole said.
The knocking on her door did not stop after she had spoken.
Instead, Jared's calm and caring voice said. "Why won't you have dinner? Is something wrong?"
Nicole was already half awake, but when she heard Jared's voice, she instantly woke up. ‘Jared? Why is he here?’
She sat up in a panic before making her way to the door to open it. ‘It really is him!"
"You. Why are you here?" Nicole asked Jared in surprise.
"I came after I got off work. What's the matter with you? Why don't you want to eat dinner?" Jared looked at Nicole in concern.
Then, he lifted his arm and felt her forehead with the back of his hand. whereupon he noticed that she was not ill.
"It's nothing.’ Nicole took his hand away and walked over to her bed to sit on it. "I'm not sick or anything.”
"I just don't feel like eating. That's all," Nicole murmured.
