Chapter 1170
While speaking, Jared looked at Nicole with nothing but sincerity in his eyes.
Nicole caught Jared staring at her, and almost instinctually, she averted her gaze.
Due to the fact that they had not reconciled after the incident that had drawn her ire, she had not been keeping in contact with Jared for the past few days.
In addition, she did not even expect that Jared would be here at all.
Jared noted her act of avoiding eye contact, so he turned his attention to Kelly, who immediately got up from her seat and moved over to give him some space.
She went and sat next to Ike, who had since remained silent after Jared's arrival.
'Harvey's arrival was problematic enough already, and now that Jared is here, things are even worse"
Ike thought.
Ike looked Nicole in the eye, hesitant as to what he should say, but he also knew the relationship between the two of them.
He did not dare to mess around in front of Jared, and thus, he restrained himself, with Harvey doing the same.
As expected, Harvey was sullen, and he was no longer as cocky as he was before.
Ike could not help but muster a scoff as he continued to order a few more dishes.
Regardless of whether the dinner is on Mr.Johnston or Mr.Ellison tonight, I will thank you on the behalf of my subordinates."
Jared curled his lips into a smile and said, "It's not a problem."
In response, Ike nodded politely but felt a little disappointed because he did not manage to humiliate Harvey.
