Chapter 2179
Jared immediately understood Nicole's intentions when he heard her asking him these questions, but then, he could not help but brush it off. "I think it might take a while."
"Can you think of an idea to solve this?" Nicole asked.
Jared nodded. "There are quite a number of solutions to this but they're not completely effective as we're still researching them."
'Every solution has its own set of pros and cons, and the final one has yet to be determined,' he thought.
"Well, it's best to have a solution when things go awry." Nicole issued a huge sigh of relief. 'This won't affect the Johnstons much.'
"Yeah, don't worry about it."
Gentleness flashed across Jared's eyes as his hand caressed Nicole's hair. Then, he spun around and made a beeline for the bathroom.
Nicole set her laptop aside while waiting for Jared to come out from the shower. Nicole had been focusing on coming up with a solution the entire night. She was relieved when she could finally get some shuteye, as she was beginning to feel a little tired.
Nicole's heart skipped a beat when she felt Jared's concern over her. It was the first time she had noticed any traces of warmth in his eyes.
The next day, the sun shone brightly, and each member of the Riddle family left the residence after they had eaten their breakfast. Nicole and Jared too were about to leave the house when Daniel stopped them.
"Jared, I heard that you were having some problems with your projects. How's it going now? Is it going to be tough?"
"They're fine for now. We're just looking for solutions.” Jared calmly responded.
"That's good to hear." Daniel then turned to look at Nicole." You don't look too good. Don't strain yourself too much."
"Don't worry about it, Dad. I'm okay."
'It's probably because I overworked myself last night. I'm feeling great though,' Nicole thought to herself.
After they had bade their goodbyes to Daniel, both Jared and Nicole left the Riddle residence. On the other hand, Tia had brought the twins, Nolan and Lana, with her and were about to hop onto Stanley's car.
"Mom." The twins called out to their mother in their cute, little voices.
