Chapter 1245
"Read it wrongly? Did I read it wrong?" Tia lowered her head and tried to recall.
"That's not right. I remember Nicole was happy when she came back." Tia took some time to think and replied to Jared confidently.
Jared was confused by Tia's response. 'No matter what, Nicole would not return happily. Unless...she lifted her finger on Fiorella? This seems like the only possibility.'
At that thought, Jared could not help but sigh. 'I guess things have gone too far this time around. I should've just explained everything clearly to her earlier at the office.' Then, he decided to head upstairs and clear things up with Nicole.
Jared stood up and was about to walk to the stairs. Tia assumed he was about to leave, so she said, "Mr. Johnston, you've just arrived, and you're leaving already?"
"No, I'm going upstairs to see Nicole." After Jared had finished speaking, he wanted to head upstairs.
"Upstairs? Mr. Johnston, don't you know that Nicole had already left?" Tia replied while looking at Jared confusedly.
"She left? Where to?’ Jared asked Tia as he was clueless.
"Overseas? Didn't...she tell you?" Tia looked at Jared's surprised expression and wondered if she had accidentally said something she should not have said again.
"Which flight?" Jared asked Tia.
"I think it was the morning flight. She did not tell me about the exact time."
Jared recalled everything. 'Could she have left for the airport immediately from my office?
'No wonder she asked me to help Martin. So, that was the case.'
"Did she instruct you to do anything before she left?" asked Jared.
"Other than asking me to take good care of Mrs. Wallace Sr., there's nothing else.”
'Nicole must be very angry at me this time. Otherwise, why would she not tell me about her leaving?' Jared thought.
"I have some things to take care of. I'll make a move." After Jared hurriedly bid goodbye to Mrs. Wallace Sr., he drove off at high speed.
Jared took a glance at the time while he was in the car. 'If she took the morning flight, she would still be on the flight. I'll wait till tonight and call her.'
Just as he was about to return to the office, Jared suddenly remembered about Fiorella. So, he called his assistant, "Did Fiorella come by the office this afternoon?"
"Yes, she did. I told her that you weren't around, but she did not believe in me and insisted on waiting for you in your office."
"Then just let her wait." Jared hung up the phone as he finished speaking.
'This is all Fiorella's fault. Why did she choose to wear a floral dress to my office? On top of that, she bumped into Nicole! She really did me no good.
'What should I do now to make Nicole happy?'
Unknowingly, Jared had already reached the entrance of Martin's factory. He glanced at the place. 'Since Nicole had already requested me to do it, I should just give it a try.'
