Hearing her mother's question, Nicole was stunned. To be honest, she didn't think about Ron at all, nor
did she think about that Ron would know about it.
"You didn't tell him either?" Seeing her daughter's reaction, Judy also understood something.
"HMM Not yet... " Nicole said word by word, "I mentioned a little before, but I didn't say it in detail..."
Judy frowned and began to teach Nicole.
"How could you? When two people get along, the most important thing is to be honest with each other.
If you don't tell him about such an important thing, what will he think after he knows it? "
"…… Okay. "
Judy stared into Nicole's eyes and asked, "Nicole, tell me the truth. What's your relationship with Ron
now? Are you together?"
Nicole shook her head, "for the time being Not yet. "
She was afraid that her mother would find another blind date for her. So she didn't deny directly.
"It's been a long time. Why haven't you been together yet?" Judy said anxiously, "you two, are you
unwilling to go with him or not?"
"Mom... This kind of thing can't be rushed. Let's take it slow, okay? "
Judy wanted to urge her daughter, but when she saw the impatience on her daughter's face, she
swallowed all the words.
After school, Jim came back home. After dinner, Jim insisted on taking Nicole out for a walk. Nicole
knew that her brother had something to say, so she agreed to his request and went out with him.
The two walked out of the community slowly and along the sidewalk.
"Tell me, do you have got any other idea?" Seeing her brother wanted to say something but stopped on
a second thought for several times, Nicole smiled and spoke first.
Jim pursed his lips and looked at Nicole for several times before he said hesitantly, "I... I find something
very strange. I don't dare to tell my mom. I'm afraid that she will worry about me."
"What's that?"
"I... I'm not sure yet. I just suspect... "
Nicole had never seen her brother so entangled. She stopped, pulled him to the corner and asked
seriously, "Jim, what's the matter?"
Jim gritted his teeth and said, "I think someone is following me."
"What?" Nicole was shocked, "someone is following you? When? "
"I'm not sure." Jim shook his head and looked very distressed. "At the beginning, when I found out, I
thought it was a bad guy and was particularly afraid. So when I went home, I asked my classmates to
go with me. But nothing happened. I even doubt if I have a wrong feeling. "
Nicole had also been followed. She knew that if her brother said so, it must not be groundless. There
must be a reason.
"Jim, take your time and tell me everything you feel." Nicole simply pulled Jim to sit on the steps.
"Okay." Jim nodded heavily and recalled, "I found someone stalking me a long time ago. The feeling of
sneaking was very obvious. I saw it once. Although it was a little far, I felt that it was Austin's mother."
Nicole asked in disbelief, "Selina?"
Jim nodded seriously, "it's her. She gave me a strange feeling. I was going to tell you about it, but she
suddenly disappeared and never appeared again. I forgot it. "
Nicole was too shocked to say a word. Selina had followed her brother. What did she want to do?!
"I want to tell you today because I have a strange feeling recently." Jim said with a bitter face, "if it goes
on like this, I feel that I can't stand it anymore. I'm so suspicious every day that I can't focus on studying
carefully. Sister, what do you think I should do? Should I call the police? Or am I really wrong? "
Nicole held her brother's hand and conveyed her strength to him through her palm. She thought for a
while and shook her head. "It should not be wrong. You can leave this matter to me and let me solve it."
Jim asked curiously, "sister, what are you going to do?"
"It's none of your business. I have my own way." With a confident smile on her face, Nicole touched
Jim's head and comforted him, "just trust me. That's enough."
"Well, I believe you."
Although Nicole didn't show it on her face when Jim told her the fact, Nicole actually felt as if there was
a heavy stone in her heart, which made her nervous and heavy.
Her brother and mother were the two closest people in the world. She couldn't allow anything to
happen to them. But now, it was obvious that his brother had been in trouble.
'is it possible that Jacob's men?
But if it was Jacob, why did he send someone to follow his brother?
Nicole was puzzled.
After walking around for a while, they walked back silently. Both of them were in a bad mood, so neither
of them spoke. Both of them were thinking about their own things.
At the gate of the community, Nicole suddenly heard a shout from her side.
"Nicole!"
Turning her head, Nicole saw Ron looking at her with a big plastic bag in his hand.
Seeing her look back, Ron strode to her.
"I thought I was out of my mind, but it's really you." Ron smiled brightly, "what? Are you going home to
visit your mom?"
Nicole nodded, "yes."
"Jim, long time no see." Ron bowed his head and greeted Jim warmly.
Jim smiled back politely, "hello."
Nicole thought it was a coincidence, so she asked, "Why are you here? Are you here to visit Anna?"
"Yes." Ron shook the plastic bag in his hand and explained, "my company has given me the blessed
card of the supermarket. I'm free now, so I need to buy something and send it here."
"You are so considerate." Said Nicole politely.
Ron smirked and said in a flirtatious tone, "there are still many sweet places of me to be considerate.
You'll find them gradually."
"You are really not modest." Nicole really didn't know what to say. Her brother was present, so she
couldn't say anything. She said, "Jim has to go back to do his homework. We'll go back first. You'd
better go back quickly. These two bags must be very heavy. We can talk after we finish. "
"Okay, let's talk later." Ron smiled and left.
After Ron went far away, Jim pulled Nicole's sleeve and said softly, "sister, you don't like him, do you?"
"How do you know?" Nicole was surprised.
Jim chuckled, "I can see that you are much more shy than before when you called your boyfriend."
Nicole couldn't help laughing and scolded, "Jim! What are you talking about? "
Jim stuck out his tongue and said, "I'm not talking nonsense."
Indeed, she didn't talk nonsense. Nicole also knew that she was not as cold as when she talked with
Jacob. Even when she was at odds with Jacob, or she was angry and deliberately cold, instead of
faking a smile like two strangers.
When Nicole thought of Jacob, she felt warm in her heart. With a straight face, she patted her brother's
head and said, "even if you see something, don't tell mom. Do you hear me?"
"I do understand." Jim made an OK gesture like an adult, "don't worry, lady."
Nicole was amused by her brother, "you are so naughty."
The two of them returned home, laughing and joking. Judy was walking out of the kitchen with a plate
of fresh fruit in her hands. She said to the two with a smile, "you two go to wash your hands and come
here to eat some fruit."
"Okay!"
Jim didn't get happy enough before Judy added, "you can go to do your homework after eating. You
haven't written a word when you come back tonight, right?"
Jim pouted and acted like a spoiled child, "I've finished my homework at school. Let me have a chat
with my sister tonight."
"Then let's talk for a while and then go inside to do homework. Do you hear me?"
"Okay!"
So....Jim and Nicole, were watching TV on the sofa, chatting and laughing, while Judy was sitting next
to them.
The atmosphere was very harmonious until there was a knock on the door.
"Who is it?" Judy stood up and went to open the door. When she opened the door, she was surprised
and then smiled happily. "Ron, you're here."
"Hello, auntie. I'm here looking for Nicole."
At the moment when Nicole heard the voice, the orange slice in her hand fell with a click.
