Jared looked at Nicole, and with a relaxed tone of voice, he said. "Since you don't plan to eat dinner here. let's head home and not bother Mrs. Wallace Sr.”
"Huh?" Nicole retained her senses.
Jared looked at Mrs. Wallace Sr. with a smile and said, “Mrs. Wallace Sr. Nicole doesn't plan to have dinner here so well go head back first.”
"Skipping dinner? How can I easily allow this to happen?" Mrs. Wallace Sr. looked at Nicole worriedly.
‘Don't worry. I'll make whatever she wants to eat when we reach home later." Jared dispelled Mrs. Wallace Sr.'s worries in a single sentence.
‘Alright. Be safe on the way back." Mrs. Wallace Sr. looked at them and urged.
"Okay," he said.
Nicole was then dragged out of the Sea View Villa with Jared's large hands wrapped around her wrist. He helped fasten her seatbelt in the car, after which he ignited the engine and drove to his own villa.
Jared did not ask a single question on the way back, and neither did Nicole; the both of them sat quietly and looked out of the window. After arriving at the villa, Nicole made a beeline to the upper floor without looking back, whereas Jared was taking his coat off when he saw Nicole heading upstairs.
Jared turned around and made his way into the kitchen, and after a while, he walked into the dining room with two dishes in hand. He noticed Nicole had not come down, and so, he headed upstairs, where he noticed that her door was closed. He pushed the door open and walked in directly.
Nicole was huddled up in her quilt, and so, she did not notice anyone walking in,
Jared walked over, lifted her quilt, and said, ’ Dinner is ready. Let's go downstairs and eat."
Nicole's looked at him in shock with her large eyes, and thought, 'He just came up here to get me to have a meal without asking me? And he even made dinner? What is he up to?’
Nicole cautiously eyed Jared, a gesture which he responded to in kind before speaking up, "What are you still doing here? The food will get cold, or would you like me to heat it up for you again?"
"Ok." Nicole quickly got out of bed and followed Jared into the dining room.
As usual, Jared sliced the steak up for her and placed it in front of her. However, Nicole did not grab her utensils right away.
Instead, she looked at Jared with her pair of big eyes and pondered, ‘There were no questions, no temper tantrums. Dinner was cooked, and the steak was cut. Everything seems natural and normal. Could it be the calm before the storm?’
"What are you looking at me for? You have not eaten yet. Is there food on my face?” Jared said jokingly.
It was only then that Nicole grabbed her utensils and began to eat. The atmosphere in the dining room, however, made Nicole feel as though there was a palpable tension with no apparent source.
Unable to withstand the torture any longer, she drew a deep breath before putting her utensils down to look at Jared and say, ‘Say whatever it is you want to say.”
Then, she braced herself, prepared to tell him the truth.
Jared ignored her and ate his steak.
Nicole frowned at him and thought, ‘What does he mean? Not speaking?’ Nicole became inexplicably more anxious.
"Jared, are you going to ask me or not? I am giving you one last chance.” It was only then Jared looked up at her and said, "You asked for it."
