Chapter 2035
"Sure," Nicole responded.
She did not further the conversation either, as she thought Nolan had understood her.
When they got downstairs, everyone in the family had already sat down and was waiting for Nicole. Everyone was concerned about her, so they were relieved when they saw that she was looking better than before.
"Nicole, if work is getting too overwhelming for you, just tell Sean and Steve. They can share the workload with you," Gloria reminded her.
She had undergone way too many hardships before she finally got Nicole back. All she wanted now was for Nicole to have peace and happiness. She did not really care much about anything else, as nothing was close to being as important as Nicole.
"Don't worry, mom. I'm fine," Nicole smiled as she comforted Gloria.
"Nicole's doing very well, and we'll look after her," Sean and Steve promised.
"Okay, pay more attention to your sister," Gloria reminded them.
They chatted away while they ate, and in a blink of an eye, dinner was done. As they did not want Nicole to feel unwell, Gloria quickly got Nicole to hurry back to her room after the last dish had been cleared.
Jared naturally followed Nicole upstairs, but as soon as Nicole saw the bed, she was brought back to the memory of the moment a few hours back, causing her face to flush once again.
"I'm taking a shower." She rushed off to the bathroom, as she could not stand being in the same room as him.
But once she had gotten in, she began to regret it. 'Why does this feel so much weirder?'
"Go ahead. I'll take a shower after you're done." Jared replied.
