Looking at these lot, their eyes brimming with enthusiastic light, a smile gradually appeared on Nicole’s
face
‘It seems like they were not totally hopeless.’
It was almost nine o’clock before Jared saw Nicole being escorted out by the bunch of louts.
Every single one of those punks that were friendly with Nicole could not help but to show their admiration
and respect for her.
He crossed his arms over his chest as he watched on, wishing that he could chase all of them out this
instant.
The group went downstairs and as Nicole paid the bill, someone suddenly said, “I want to get into the top
twenty, I want Nicole to be our boss for all time!”
Austin looked at that buddy of his.
That guy had always opposed him taking Nicole as his boss and had grumbled who knows how many
times to him in private.
He went forward and gave that buddy a punch.
“Now you know how wise I am, huh!”
The rest of them nodded silently as they heard that.
At this moment, glints of light appeared in all of their eyes,
All of them recognized Nicole as their boss!
Having reached an accord with the blokes, Nicole took her card back and was about to turn away and
leave, but she instead saw
Jared Johnston there.
He was actually still here!
And he was staring weirdly at her!
She found it difficult to understand his behavior, so she gave him a glare before leaving without even
saying anything.
Jared looked on as she left with the group, and one could only wonder how miffed he was.
As he gnashed his teeth, Jared asked Max, “Is my standing in her heart lower than a bunch of
gangsters?”
Max was stunned.
So that was why Jared’s face as been dark and gloomy for the past two to three hours… ‘Is… Mr.
Johnston feeling jealous? ‘But… wasn’t he the one that said he wanted to break off the engagement?’ ‘I
have no idea what he is thinking.’Max dared not say anything at all. After saying goodbye to Austin and
the others, Nicole left for the dormitory. Along the way, she kept wandering.
Insofar she had not gotten any information yet, supposing the person tailing her was someone very
skilled A thought appeared in her mind as she had a feeling that the person did not harbor any malice,
otherwise she would not be so merciful.
So, she was in no hurry to find out who the person was. Since the person wants to play a game of cat
and mouse, she would of course oblige. As she got to the ground floor of the dormitory, Nicole ran into
someone totally unexpected there. There was a very tall cherry blossom tree at the ground floor of Royal
Creek Institute’s dormitory.
At this moment, it was not the flowering season, the green leaves created a shade and Harvey Ellison
was standing right under the tree.
His entire person was covered by the shade, his expression indiscernible. When Nicole saw him, she
could not help but frown as she stopped walking. Harvey too noticed her as he looked up.
Nicole then saw his bright-as-day smile, and a hint of irritation appeared in her heart.
Harvey was already walking towards her.
His pace was measured, and it was only when he got before her that he said softly,” Nicole, I was waiting
for you.” Nicole looked at his figure and the smile on his face as she faintly said, “Stop smiling.” Just
looking at him pissed her off. Harvey did not expect her first sentence would be that and could not help
but to be taken aback for a moment.
A slight gloom appeared in his eyes.
“Why does it always seem like you hate me?” Many gazes, both overt and covert, looked over as many
took out their phones and started taking shots of them. It must be said that both Nicole and Harvey
looked very good together. One was cold, while another warm, and they seemed to be in some kind of
inexplicable harmony. Many were gossiping about them in whispers and all of the girls were looking at
Nicole with seething hatred and envy. ‘Why was Nicole getting the attention of so many of the cool guys
in the campus?!’ If it was Snow and Raine Riddle, so be it, but the person speaking so gently to her was
Harvey Ellison! They already had enough of Snow alone, and now a Nicole pops up!
She was nothing, so what right does she have to win Harvey’s blue eyes.
Just because of her pretty face? Nicole noticed the menacing gazes as she coldly looked at Harvey
before her.
“Can you tell if I hate you or not? What do you want?” She could clearly feel that he was pestering her
not because of the matter with Snow and Raine Riddle, but there was something else that she had yet to
realize. After seeing Nicole showing some emotions to him, and no longer acting like she could not even
see him, Harvey looked at her bright eyes as he felt an extreme surge of excitement within him, so much
so that his heartbeat went wild. He then looked at Nicole and let out a rare, genuine smile. Seeing him
not speaking, Nicole frowned and said, “If you want me to apologize to Snow and Raine, you can forget
about it.” After all, Harvey was the grandson of Mr.
Ellison, so she did not believe that with Harvey’s insight and intelligence that he could not tell what was
going on.
Some matters he could just find out after some cursory investigation. When Harvey heard what she said,
he was a little shocked.
He then responded in a friendly tone, “I’ve only agreed to speak up for Snow in the afternoon.
I have to be a man of my words, don’t I? The reason I’m looking for you now is to talk of some personal
matters.” His tone was cocksure as if the incident this afternoon was just him completing a task with nary
any personal feelings attached. Nicole looked at him deeply in the eyes. Is that even possible? Everyone
would have a sense of selfishness in what they do, no? “What personal matter?” Harvey looked at her
being all vigilant and a hint of delight appeared in his eyes. That’s it, she should be showing him more
emotions. He smiled gently, his eyes like the azure sea, luring people like a siren’s song to drown within
it. “It’s a very simple personal matter.” Harvey looked firmly at Nicole in the eyes as he slowly bent over
and elegantly extended a hand to her. “Nicole, would you be my girlfriend?”
