My Wife is a Hacker (Nicole Riddle and Jared) novel Chapter 2000

Nicole's heart was beating uncontrollably; she could even feel it thumping. Her cheeks were faintly flushed too.

"Come here," Jared said with a subtle smile when he saw her standing in place.

It was only then that Nicole came to realize that she had been staring at him the entire time without even noticing that she had stopped walking. She could not help but feel a little uneasy.

"Let's go." Jared grabbed her delicate hands and led her into the car after she had finally come to him.

The car started moving, and when Nicole noticed that they were not heading toward their home, she asked curiously, "Where are we going?"

"To a date," Jared said.

Hearing that, Nicole was shocked. "I didn't agree to go on a date with you!"

'I haven't remembered anything about us yet. It'd be so weird for us to go out on a date!' she thought to herself.

"But you promised Lana yesterday," Jared smugly said.

"Don't get me wrong. I was just trying to comfort Lana at that time. There's no need for us to actually go on a date," Nicole sulked as she rolled her eyes at Jared.

She refused to believe that Jared did not understand what she had truly meant.

"I disagree. I believe there is definitely a need." Jared became unusually serious.

In truth, he really needed a date with Nicole.

If Nicole could not regain her memories for now, they would need to start over and fall in love again. He did not mind giving her time, and he respected the situation she was in as well. However, he had to stay by her side and make sure that she would not leave him anymore. He had to keep her safe no matter what.

Nicole seemed to notice the sadness in his eyes, and she somehow felt a twinge of pain in her heart. Then, she swallowed her words and stopped with her blatant rejection of him.
