Jared’s lips were pretty cold, but they somehow managed to warm Nicole’s heart, causing her heart to pound rapidly.
Jared’s gaze darkened slightly, and the very next moment, their lips met once again.
Amidst the cool night breeze, the two kissed passionately…
After a few busy days, the weekend arrived in the blink of an eye.
Nolan and Lana got up early in the morning and went to Nicole’s room.
“You two are up so early,” Nicole said helplessly, finding them extremely excited.
“We promised Godpa, and I don’t want to be late,” Nolan said earnestly.
Nicole smiled and said, “Alright, head downstairs first.”
Once the children left, Nicole changed her clothes and prepared to go downstairs.
After Jared finished washing up in the bathroom, he realized that Nicole had already gone out and felt defeated.
He was aware that the children had come inside, but none of them waited for him.
He changed his clothes and went downstairs, where everyone was already in the dining room.
“Dad, come and eat!” Lana waved his small hand at Jared.
“Let’s dig in,” Daniel said upon seeing Jared’s arrival.
After sitting down, Jared glanced at Nicole and said, ‘Til drop you off later.”
Nicole had informed him that she would be taking the children to Lawrence’s place today, and he happened to have some matters to attend to. It was only convenient for him to drop them off along the way.
“You’ll take us there?!” Nicole looked at him, somewhat bewildered, as she was shocked by his willingness.
‘Is he really okay with that? Something feels off…’
“What’s that look for?” Jared asked, arching an eyebrow.
“It’s nothing.” Nicole immediately composed herself. She looked down and continued eating silently.
‘Regardless of his intentions, it’s impossible not to let him take them.’
Soon, they were done with their breakfast. Nicole then took Nolan and Lana with her and followed Jared.
After arriving at Lawrence’s mansion, Jared watched them get out of the car and reminded them, “I’ll come to pick you up in the afternoon.”
“Okay,” Nicole agreed, understanding his intentions.
She was going to Lawrence’s place, but he was chauffeuring them back and forth. This served as a warning to Lawrence.
Nicole found it both funny and exasperating. She then watched Jared leave before pressing the doorbell to Lawrence’s mansion with Nolan and Lana by her side.
Very soon, Lawrence came out to greet them and invited them inside.
Upon entering the mansion, Nicole was surprised when she saw that Lawrence had decorated it exactly like his house on the island. “Why did you decorate it this way?”
Lawrence smiled faintly. “So that you wouldn’t feel uncomfortable when you came.”
After all, it still resembled the way it used to be, and they would definitely be reminded of the old times when they looked at it.
Nicole couldn’t help but sigh as she looked at the decorations. ’I never knew you were so sentimental.”
“You’ll come to know with time,” Lawrence said meaningfully, looking at Nicole.
Nicole bit her lip and averted her gaze. She could not respond to Lawrence’s words, so she looked at Nolan and Lana instead. “You’ve been clamoring to come to your Godpa’s house to play. Now your wish has come true, right?”
