Then, she walked out of the school and got into her driver's car.
Gary could only watch her from afar as his expression shifted from disappointment to hurt. ‘Why? Why wouldn't Nicole treat me like this? I've tried talking to her humbly. I've even given her some friendly advice, but no matter what I do, she just wouldn't take my help.’
At that moment, a downpour descended upon the school.
Gary looked up in a daze as he let the raindrops fall on his face, his heart heavy and hurt.
Raine, who had seen everything from afar, was immediately filled with anger and jealousy. She was jealous because Gary had never really paid attention to her, and that had driven her up the wall.
‘Gary is someone who is way out of my league. Who is Nicole to hurt him like this?! What right does she have to make him so depressed?!’ she seethed.
Enough was enough for her. So what if Nicole obtained the Fire Crest? So what if she was Jared's wife?! Nicole had hurt someone Raine loved, and for that reason, she deserved to suffer and rot.
It was raining the entire time, even after Nicole, Samuel, and Spencer had arrived back home. When they got down from the car, the brothers simultaneously took their coats off and draped them over Nicole's head to shield her from the rain.
When their hands touched, they immediately glared at each other. "I can help Nicole myself!"
"Shut up and get inside!" Spencer rolled his eyes at Samuel and dashed into the house with Nicole and him.
Nicole watched as her brothers shielded her from the rain on each side, and her heart was instantly filled with bliss.’ Being coddled sure feels nice.’
Dinner was nearly ready when they entered the house, so Nicole went upstairs to get a change of clothes.
When she got downstairs, Daniel and Sean were already home too.
The moment Sean saw her, he murmured, "Nicole... You were right about something.”
Nicole arched her brows, and finally understood what he had meant after thinking about it. "Norah doesn't have a suspended sentence, right?"
"Yeah, someone found the best doctor to treat her. She's now in prison, and someone will be there to keep an eye on her so she can't commit suicide anymore.”
Nicole squinted her eyes as she thought to herself, ‘Who else could it be, other than Jared?’
Indeed, Jared would never let Norah die; he would just make her life a living hell.
“Let's not talk about her anymore... She has to face the consequences of her actions." Daniel glumly said. "Don't tell your mom about this.”
Nicole and Sean nodded as they decided not to make any mentions of Norah in this house anymore.
While Sean and Daniel went up put on some fresh clothes, Nicole was walking down the stairs. At the same time, Alfred was ushering a guest into the house.
Nicole turned to have a look. ‘What?! Jared?!"
‘Why is this guy in my house?’ she freaked out.
Gloria was over the moon when she saw Jared.
She quickly walked up to him to welcome him. "Oh, Jared. You're a busy man, why did you come all the way here? Come, join us for dinner.”
He looked toward the stairway where Nicole was, and once he saw her, his heart became full. He had not seen Nicole for a few days, and because of that, he missed her very much.
He just continued staring at her as he could not find it in himself to take his eyes off her.
Nicole walked up to him and in an awkward tone, she asked, "Why are you here?"
Jared flashed her a wicked smile. “I'm here to deliver you some clothes."
Nicole was stunned as she watched Claus placing a bag on their coffee table.
“Huh...?"
"You looked great in that gown the other day, so I ordered something better for you, one tailor-made just for you.”
Gloria smiled from ear to ear when she saw how considerate Jared was.
