Chapter 1823
Nicole could not help being shy, "My brothers had brought back their female friends over to express their thanks and to let our mother do some matchmaking. Why are you here?"
Both Nicole and Jared are eventually becoming husband and wife, so there was no need for them to meet up for this occasion.
"Oh, so you are aware that you're going to be wed soon...," said Jared before he walked toward Gloria and Daniel.
"Hi, Mr. & Mrs. Riddle.’
Gloria was happily chatting with Sally before she turned around to see Jared. Gloria beamed with joy, "Oh my, Jared is here! Come and have a seat.’
"Thank you, Mrs. Riddle," Jared smiled. Nicole trailed along behind Jared and sat down on the opposite side of her mother.
This was the very first time Sally had seen Jared, she was a little taken aback, "This is..."
Gloria immediately introduced, "This is Nicole's fiance, Jared.’
Sally was taken aback, and recalled, "I think I've heard this name before, the president of the Johnston Group, right?" Steve, noticing Sally's eyes lit up when she saw Jared, was engulfed in sadness and silently sat closer to her. Sally, sensing Steve sitting closer next to her, lowered her head to hide her blushing face.
Nicole could tell that Steve was jealous. She smiled, curled her lips, pretended to be nonchalant, and said to Jared, “This is Steve's girlfriend, Sally Kane."
"Oh," Jared nodded his head lightly.
