Chapter 1319
’You just started and you're already this busy? I've been waiting for 5 minutes down here." Jared stated.
"It's the professionals' first day today, so of course, I had to tend to them. Otherwise, it'll look as though as I don’t value them," she replied.
"It's just been 5 minutes and you're already growing impatient?" Nicole arched her brows as she looked at Jared.
'I wouldn't dare." Jared opened the door to the car for her.
In the car, Nicole asked, "Why are you treating me to lunch?"
"No reason, really. It's just that having lunch alone gets boring, so it's better to have it with someone I know." Jared looked at her and continued driving.
'I thought you had something important to tell me. If I knew that there was nothing important, I wouldn't have agreed to come along," Nicole said, regretting all of a sudden.
"Really? Having a meal with me is a dream for many beautiful women. You should appreciate that you get to experience it," Jared said delightfully.
"Enjoy? You're too full of yourself." Nicole smiled in defeat.
In Blue Whale Restaurant, Jared ordered Nicole's favorite dishes and asked, "It has been some time since we last ate here, has it?"
"Yeah, the view is phenomenal here." Nicole admired as she looked out the window.
She felt much calmer when she sat and looked at the scenery.
"When I was abroad, did you come here often?" Nicole asked.
"Yeah, I'll come here whenever I'm free." Jared only responded with a few words and omitted the part about Fiorella, as he was afraid that this would lead him into another misunderstanding with Nicole.
"When you weren't here, I got really bored eating on my own, and because of this, I thought of coming here. Whenever I sit here, it feels like you're eating with me. Besides, we've enjoyed the scenery together here too, so I can momentarily relive the beautiful moments when you're here by my side. " Jared looked at Nicole and said in a melancholic tone of voice.
"Aw, why are we being emotional now?" Nicole asked, embarrassed and attempted to switch topics.
"Why not? You're sitting right in front of me now, and you have time to spend time with me already, so I won't let you leave me for such extended periods of time anymore." Jared looked at her possessively, though he continued speaking in a gentle tone of voice.
Nicole blushed. ‘I just left for work, and I didn't know he'd miss me this much.'
Then, she took a bite of the dessert she liked and passed it to Jared. "I really like this. Give it a try!"
Jared had never liked food items such as these, but he did not decline the dessert that Nicole had given him. Instead, he looked at Nicole with a smile and ate it.
It was then that Nicole realized that she had passed the dessert to Jared with her spoon on the plate after seeing him taking a bite. 'Now, this is too embarrassing.'
