My Wife is a Hacker (Nicole Riddle and Jared) novel Chapter 1170

Chapter 1170

While speaking, Jared looked at Nicole with nothing but sincerity in his eyes.

Nicole caught Jared staring at her, and almost instinctually, she averted her gaze.

Due to the fact that they had not reconciled after the incident that had drawn her ire, she had not been keeping in contact with Jared for the past few days.

In addition, she did not even expect that Jared would be here at all.

Jared noted her act of avoiding eye contact, so he turned his attention to Kelly, who immediately got up from her seat and moved over to give him some space.

She went and sat next to Ike, who had since remained silent after Jared's arrival.

‘Harvey's arrival was problematic enough already, and now that Jared is here, things are even worse"

Ike thought.

Ike looked Nicole in the eye, hesitant as to what he should say, but he also knew the relationship between the two of them.

He did not dare to mess around in front of Jared, and thus, he restrained himself, with Harvey doing the same.

As expected, Harvey was sullen, and he was no longer as cocky as he was before.

Ike could not help but muster a scoff as he continued to order a few more dishes.

Regardless of whether the dinner is on Mr.

Johnston or Mr.

Ellison tonight, I will thank you on the behalf of my subordinates."

Jared curled his lips into a smile and said, "It's not a problem."

In response, Ike nodded politely but felt a little disappointed because he did not manage to humiliate Harvey.

"Mr.Johnston is really nice to Miss Riddle, it seems!"

As soon as Kelly had uttered those words, Nicole shot her a stare dagger, and she fell silent at once.

The atmosphere became awkward, as Kelly kept her head bowed and her eyes fixed on her meal.

Ike did not wish to get in the way, and so, he could only watch as Jared tended to Nicole during the entire course of the dinner.

Due to the fact that there were two other men around, Jared behaved in a manner that was even more considerate than usual, which in turn made Nicole extremely uncomfortable.

Even after she had eaten her meal, Nicole could only continue maintaining her composure.

But the second the attendant brought their soup over, Harvey jumped at the opportunity and immediately helped the attendant with the serving.

"This soup is very unique.Give it a try."
