How Do You Prefer It
Despite it being involuntary, Nicole actually followed after Colton.
The banquet was held in the front garden of the Gardner Residence. Colton continued to hold her by
her hand as they went through the garden and into the main building of the Gardner Residence.
He brought her up to the second floor where there was a big balcony decorated with small, blinking
lights. The atmosphere there felt somewhat intimate to her.
The balcony just so happened to be located in a direction that allowed full view of the banquet. It was a
nice place.
He only let go of her hand after they had reached the balcony. “You can stay here if you don’t like it
there. It is easier for you to take care of things as well, in case anything happens.”
Nicole took a few steps forward and leaned against the railing of the balcony. Sweeping her eyes
across the view downstairs, she couldn’t help thinking that this place was indeed just nice for her.
Now that she was more relaxed being surrounded by silence, Nicole turned to look at Colton with a
smile on her face and said, “Thank you, President Gardner.”
He suddenly stepped forward and stood in front of her.
She was sandwiched between the railing behind and the man in front. As he closed in on her, she
could clearly smell the scent of his skin.
Not knowing why he suddenly got close to her, Nicole started to panic and ask, “Is something wrong,
President Gardner?”
He lowered his head, and his eyes happened to fall on the small mouth that opened and closed
nervously. “Nicky.” He sighed with his gaze fixated on her. “I haven’t thanked you for last time.”
Thank me? I have never received thanks this way before! Nicole thought as she pressed her back into
the railing. She wasn’t worried about falling as the railing was considerably tall. She could now feel the
coldness of the railing seeping through to the back of her torso.
“You’re welcome. You have also saved me once before, President Gardner. We don’t owe each other
anything now.”
Colton didn’t know what was wrong with him, but he was upset to hear her say that.
Still, the corners of his mouth lifted as he replied, “It is true that we don’t owe each other anything
anymore, but I have always been someone who repays others for their kindness. You can tell me
anything you want, Nicky. I will do my best to satisfy you.”
When Nicole noticed that Colton was getting closer to her with every sentence he said, she quickly
stopped him. “If that is the case, can you please step back a little, President Gardner?!”
After hearing her babbling her request, he didn’t say anything and obediently took a few steps back.
She felt like she could breathe again as soon as the big and tall figure stopped asserting pressure on
her.
Brushing out the wrinkles on her dress, Nicole found a spacious spot to stand at in case the man
decided to stick to her again.
Colton could tell what she was thinking, and so he stood in the same spot without moving.
Truth was, Nicole couldn’t help but think that he was weird today for doing things he wouldn’t do
usually.
After she put her mind to rest, she feigned calmness and said, “Thank you for bringing me here,
President Gardner. You can go get busy if you have something to do.”
“I am not busy,” he unhurriedly replied with a smile.
She suddenly couldn’t find the words to say anything to him.
Is that why he’s here having a stare down with me?
Feeling awkward, she tightened the corners of her mouth and only spoke again after some time had
passed. “Are you not going to welcome the important guests downstairs?”
She had to speak up because the air only grew more awkward as the two of them stood face to face
looking at each other.
“It is not like it is my birthday. It’s Wendy’s, so of course I don’t have to welcome them. Are you trying to
get rid of me, Nicky?” Colton asked intentionally.
Knowing that it would be inappropriate to tell him that she felt uncomfortable with him here, she quickly
brought the conversation away from the direction it was heading in. “No, that is not it. I was only
worried that it would be too tiring for Mrs. Gardner to handle the guests herself.”
Even though they knew what was going on, the both of them continued to act clueless.
Colton chuckled at that before he asked in a straightforward manner, “Nicky, how would you prefer for
someone who likes you to pursue you?
