Jared did not hide anything as he simply just said.
"I could tell that you're someone from Interpol with that skill of yours, but I never thought that you were
S."
When Nicole heard what he said, she smiled a little.This was the first time she met someone with such
observation skills.
"You should join the Interpol as well." She said seriously.
"If it's you, you might very well be someone more powerful than I am."
Jared did not say anything but Claus, at the front, raised his eyebrows and said, "Boss, where should
we do that? He is..."
The remainder of his words were snuffed out by Jared's gaze.
Nicole looked thoughtfully at Jared.She did not pursue the matter as she gently leaned against the car
window and closed her eyes slightly.
From Jared's angle, she was like a serene beauty in a portrait.Her beautiful eyes closed and her face
serene, as if she was a sleeping princess that walked straight out of the Victorian era.
He motioned for Claus to keep quiet with his eyes as the high- performance car sped along the
highway.It was going extremely fast, yet there was no noise at all.
Soon, they arrived at the Royal Creek Institute.
Nicole opened her eyes, waking up as if she was not sleepy at all.
She looked at Jared to her side, and sensing her gaze, he looked over, his eyes gleaming.
"You're awake."
Nicole nodded as she slowly got down from the car.As she looked at the café before her, she felt
somewhat relaxed.It was like a safe harbor that could give her peace of mind.
The brightly lit café had a radiant warmth to it.
Nicole sat by the side of the bar counter as she watched Jared's gentle movements while he was
making coffee.
The coldness around her seemingly thawed away as she gently held her chin with her hand, tapping
the fingers of her left hand on the marble countertop.
With the piano music playing slowly in the hall, the world seemingly allocated this moment just for her
and the handsome man before her.
When Jared turned around, he saw Nicole staring at him in a daze, as if she was a person who was in
a deep dream and did not want to wake up.
Jared placed the Bourbon Santos by her side as he looked at her eyes and said, "Give it a taste."
Only then did Nicole wake up as she looked at Jared and smiled.
"Alright."
As she sipped the coffee, the bitterness turned into sweetness, as if she was savoring something.It was
rare that Nicole did not comment on the taste.She just drank the coffee silently as a thin fog gathered
around her eyes.
When Jared saw her like this, he whispered.
"Is it good?"
Nicole looked at the man before her through the stern of the coffee and nodded.
"Yes, it is, and so are you." Jared's eyes immediately lit up.
As he watched Nicole put down the coffee cup, something in her eyes seemingly thawed amidst the
warmth, revealing a clear affection.
She looked up and gave him a gentle kiss on the lips.
He smelled good.
Jared's eyes dimmed as he clasped the back of the girl's head and instinctively deepened the kiss.
The meeting of the lips was the finality of their tacit understanding.
By the time the kiss ended, Nicole's eyes were somewhat moist, and when Jared looked at the
beautiful girl before him, he wanted to kiss her again after a short pause.
