Chapter 2689
Having understood what Jared was referring to, she glared at him. Still, she went on to wipe the corner of his mouth anyway.
Jared happily grabbed the paper towel and placed it on the table. Then, he held Nicole's hands and brought her up to the first floor. By then, everyone in the house was already in bed, including Nolan and Lana. Thus, Jared and Nicole went right back to their room.
Just as Nicole was about to step into the shower, her phone blared with a message.
She shot her phone a glance, and that was when her eyes narrowed. It was a message from Lawrence.
Noticing that Nicole had a weird look on her face, Jared asked, "Who's that?"
"It's from Lawrence. He's saying that Everett has nothing to do with this incident. However, he's asking me to be careful as Everett is in close contact with Chloe." Nicole explained.
She was dumbfounded by the fact that Lawrence was helping her keep an eye on Everett. 'Aren't Everett and Lawrence working together?'
"Good to know," Jared said, before taking Nicole's phone away and handing a set of pajamas to Nicole.
Jared's reaction was clear. 'There's no need to bother with
his message. Just take a shower and go to sleep.'
Nicole looked at Jared with a smile. Then, she took her pajamas and entered the bathroom.
Jared looked at her phone for a moment and placed it on the table. Since then, she had paid the message no mind.
In regard to Chloe and Everett's issue, Nicole was sure that the both of them would not be able to evade legal responsibility even if she could gather nothing from the investigations.
When Nicole emerged from the bathroom, she saw that Jared was sitting by the bed, deep in thought.
