When Samuel and Spencer heard that, they raised their heads, looking a little miffed.
"Can you not be so hasty?"
"So early on a Saturday morning. You're that impatient, Mr. Jared?"
Jared did not mind that as he pretended not to see their displeasure. He then slowly lifted Nicole's hand up. "Of course. It's something I've been looking forward to, so the sooner the better."
Nicole looked at Jared's deep gaze and felt a little embarrassed.
'This guy, he's getting more and more clingy in front of others recently.'
Gloria, however, was very pleased. "Good. I'll help Nicole pack up then. The two of you will depart on Saturday morning!"
At this point, Nicole had already mostly accepted her fate.
In any case, her parents really wanted to marry her off.
"Thanks, Aunt Gloria." Jared let out a satisfied smile.
Nicole glared at him, and this time, he was really happy.
Gloria then continued to ask if Jared needed anything else to be settled. As the two talked, the matter of the wedding was broached and even Sean and Steve got involved...
Nicole could not help but be impressed. 'Since when did Jared have almost everyone in my family wrapped around his finger?'
The dinner was finally done and when Nicole sent Jared away, she could not help but rib at him. "You have so many things to do at work but you still have enough time to look into marriage. It looks like you're not busy at all."
Jared smiled as he pulled her hand and kissed it. "I'm busy, but nothing is more important than you."
Nicole's fingers felt numb as she awkwardly pulled her hand back. "Stop being so cheesy."
Jared smiled. "Is that so? You need to get used to it then."
Nicole rolled her eyes at him. "No way in hell."
He then teased her, "We're about to get married, and once we're married, we'll be together every day like this."
Seeing Jared's serious look, Nicole's cheeks felt a little flushed. "You sure have thick skin. Get going already."
Jared smiled with satisfaction but he then said, "Alright, I'll be leaving now. See you later tonight."
Nicole was absolutely embarrassed. "No way!"
Ever since the last time, Jared would always sneak into her bedroom. It was getting really clear that it was not a good thing for the two of them to live so close.
'If this goes on, my waist will definitely break.'
"Hehe, that depends on my mood." As he said that, he left, not giving Nicole a chance to retort.
Nicole watched as he walked back to the manor next door and felt gloomy.
'This guy... We're already getting married soon. Can't he just wait a little?'
She would need to put on extra locks on the window tonight.
Nicole no longer wanted to dwell on this and returned to the living room.
In the hall, her father and eldest brother seemed to be discussing something about the Colton family.
After dealing with Mr. Howde, many felt that following the Colton family was not beneficial in the long term, and some still wanted to work with the Riddle family.
Daniel was a little hesitant to accept these people.
After overhearing that, Nicole walked forward and said, "It's fine if you just accept them. After all, anyone who isn't an enemy on the battlefield is a friend. Accepting them is far better than them siding with the Colton family again."
When he heard Nicole's words, Daniel's doubts were dispelled. "Yeah, makes sense."
Sean smiled as he looked at Nicole. He too had such intentions but his father was a worrywart, so it was fortunate that his little sister came over to help.
