Chapter 2745
With a plop, the pasta fell back onto the plate as Nicole snapped back to reality.
"Don't get nervous. You'll get to decide the time," Jared teased with a smile.
Nicole blushed in embarrassment. "I'm not nervous. It's just that it felt so sudden."
Jared had never mentioned the wedding preparations to Nicole, who thought it was still in the process. Thus, she was rather shocked to be informed that everything was ready.
"Everything has been ready for a while now," Jared said softly.
Nicole lightly bit her lip, realizing that Jared had indeed waited on her for quite a while. Due to their current circumstances, it would not be wise for them to carry the wedding ceremony out. They had yet to neutralize Lawrence and Everett, and now, the sudden emergence of the Eastern Falcon had only added to their laundry list of threats to be dealt with.
All of these groups and individuals had their eyes on the couple, so Nicole thought it was best for her to wait a little longer.
Even then, she could not hide the look of guilt on her face as she looked at Jared. "Can our wedding be delayed a little
longer?"
Nicole knew it might not be a good time to suggest this. However, she would not be able to hold the wedding peacefully unless her enemies had been dealt with. Besides, she did not wish to have any regrets, and was worried that something might go wrong during the wedding. After all, this was a once-in-a-lifetime experience, one that she hoped would unfold smoothly with everyone's heartfelt blessings.
"I told you. You get to decide the time," Jared smiled as he held her hand and comforted her. "There's no rush."
Jared knew why Nicole had reservations about getting married early, so he had thrown the ball to her court, giving her the final say.
Nicole smiled at how considerate he was, feeling warm and fuzzy within.
Then, she nodded and replied, "Alright then."
