Jared looked pleased as he watched her finish the beef. He then fetched her a piece of chicken.
Nicole looked at him. Not knowing how to reject the kindness of others, she had no choice but to keep
silent, hoping that he would get the hint. But it did not seem to work today.
She was wearing a cute bear nightdress , her long fluffy hair cascading down, her face expressionless,
her cheeks bulging as she chewed on food. Jared completely ignored her silent protest. After the meal,
Jared got up, cleaned the table , and did the dishes.
Watching his eyelashes hang low and cover his charming eyes, she found him sexy as he rolled up the
sleeves to do the dishes with his muscular arms exposed.
Nicole leaned quietly against the wall and looked at him.” You are different from what I’ve imagined.”
After knowing him for so long, she had never seen the casual side of him.
Jared heard her say this and looked back at her. “What did I look like in your imagination?”
Nicole raised an eyebrow. “I thought you were a bossy
CEO from another world.” This was the feeling he had given her all along.
Jared could not help but chuckle, his laughter like a feather gently teasing Nicole’s heart.
‘What has been happening to me lately? My heart always keeps pounding at his frown and laughter.’
His seduction plan really worked.
Not wanting to watch idly by, Nicole stepped forward to take the bowl in Jared’s hand. “Let’s do it
together.”
Jared watched her do the dishes so neatly and squinted his eyes, knowing that she must have done
this chore a lot. “The Riddle family doesn’t treat you well?”
Nicole shook her head. “You forgot I wasn’t in the Riddle family before this. I did everything myself
while living in the countryside. I’m doing well now. My parents and brothers take good care of me.”
When she and Mrs. When Wallace Sr. lived together, she also performed this chore handily.
Jared was relieved. He watched Nicole finish doing the dishes and turn off the wall lamp. Jared was
suddenly lost in reverie as Nicole walked toward him with a soft orange glow behind her. He had not felt
this feeling in years. Because of Nicole, this deserted house felt more like home. He looked at Nicole,
his eyes greeted by the warm light that came with her, and his heart was at peace.
Nicole walked up to him and was a little baffled at seeing him in a daze. “Are you alright, Jared?”
“I’m alright.” He smiled and enjoyed the moment. “Let’s go upstairs and rest.” He took her hand and
went upstairs with her.
The warmth of his hand seemed to have ignited Nicole’s heart. She did not resist but let him hold her
hand. When they got to the room, Jared laid her down with him on the bed.
“You…” Nicole blushed, not expecting that he would dare to lie down with her and hug her.
“Don’t worry, I won’t touch you. I just want to spend more time with you.”
