Chapter 2535
"Eat up, dear." Jared said, his eyes brimming with affection.
"Okay, you too," Nicole replied as she reached out to scoop some food for Jared.
The couple then enjoyed their meal.
Perhaps it was because Jared was with her, or maybe it was because she had been busy all morning and was genuinely hungry, but whatever the case was, Nicole's appetite was voracious. After she had eaten her fill, she leaned back against the couch, rubbing her belly in satisfaction.
Seeing her like that softened Jared's eyes.
"Do you have any other plans?" Nicole asked, looking at Jared.
"Nope." Jared raised an eyebrow slightly. "Why do you ask?"
"Nothing, I was just thinking... If you're free, could you perhaps stay here with me?" Nicole beamed, her eyes filled with anticipation.
Jared stroked her hair softly as he replied, "Of course, I can."
"Thank you," Nicole said sweetly, leaning directly into Jared's embrace.
Holding her, Jared glanced at a box on the office desk and asked, "Lawrence came here, didn't he?"
"Yes, he did, and he even brought me a gift," Nicole replied, knowing that Jared had seen the box.
Then, she continued, "Lawrence came back, and just visited me."
"And he told you he went to Crescent Island," Jared said, his eyes darkening.
"Kinda,” Nicole shrugged, knowing how obvious Lawrence's intentions were.
