Chapter 997
After dinner, Nicole drove Martin home.
"Thanks for the ride back.Would you like to come in for a cup of coffee?"
Martin looked over at Nicole.
"No, thanks.I need to go back and get some rest."
She had not had a good rest since she got off the plane.She had been running around outside, so she indeed felt tired at the moment.
"Okay, drive safe." Martin watched Nicole's car until it disappeared before walking into the house.
Nicole headed straight toward Jared's villa.
As she arrived, she parked the car and walked in.
Jared had not returned yet.
Relieved, she went to the dining room and poured herself a glass of water, then went to the living room, sat down, turned on the TV, and laid down to rest.
Before she knew it, she was asleep.
At some point during her sleep, the sound of a door closing jolted her out of her sleep.She opened her eyes, looked toward the door, and sawa familiar figure walking in.
Seeing Nicole sleeping on the couch, Jared walked over to her and asked with concern, "Why didn't you sleep in your room? You didn't fall asleep waiting for me, did you?"
"Yeah, why are you back so late? It's getting dark." Nicole glanced out the window.
It was already dark outside.
"I was supposed to be back at the end of the day, but I had to attend a video conference all of a sudden, so I was a little late.Sorry to keep you waiting." Jared looked at Nicole apologetically.
Nicole then understood why Jared had come back so late.
"Have you had your dinner?" Nicole asked.
"Not yet."
"I will go make you something. What would you like?"
Nicole was about to get up.
Jared stopped her and looked at her with gentle eyes.
