Sensing that Nicole was a little dejected at that moment, Jared took a deep breath.
"Perhaps. I don't know what this feeling is. I just feel... very disappointed... in him," she said.
She had already made her rejection clear to Lloyd, thinking that he would care about her feelings, and
not have any more delusions about her. Yet, what he had done earlier had thoroughly disappointed her.
To think that Lloyd would do something like that to her was just painful.
Back then, Lloyd was the one who understood her best, as he was her partner since a very young age
before Carl even joined. Back then, Lloyd would take note of her feelings, and would never do anything
that would make her uncomfortable. But now he had changed...
Jared hugged her even harder. "Your disappointment means you have too high a hope for this person. I
won't allow you to care about another man."
Nicole raised her head in helplessness. "I care about him, but not because of love. In fact, it's not... not
even because of friendship."
Her relationship with Lloyd could perhaps only be described as comrade-in-arms who had been
through life and death situations together.
"However, it doesn't matter any longer. I will not get anywhere close to him anymore," she said, for the
Lloyd now was no longer the Lloyd she knew.
This Lloyd was both familiar yet foreign to her.
"Still, I'm afraid that Lloyd will not be providing me any further information," she said, though there was
not a trace of concern in her voice as she knew she still had Jared.
"Don't worry. The person we've released is almost back there. We'll find that group soon enough,"
Jared assured.
Nicole nodded, and in a tired tone of voice, she said, "Alright. Anyway, I don't plan to show up on set
ever again. As for the other stuff, do as you see fit."
Jared had invested in the show because of her, and if she wanted to leave, he could solve that issue in
whichever way he wanted.
"Alright. The Holder family may not have enough cash flowing in, so they will definitely not choose to
pay the compensation in fivefold. They'll definitely allow you to leave," Jared stated.
Hearing this, Nicole felt much more reassured. "Thankfully, you've seen this coming."
Jared had always been one to strategize and plan ahead.
"I knew that the two were scheming." Jared's eyes darkened.
To be fair, Nicole was not there, and as such, she did not know how the Holders truly were, and as a
result, had trusted them blindly.
Nicole nodded. "It looks like your sixth sense is pretty on point, Mr. Jared."
She had agreed to their terms on the basis that she had to acquire the intelligence needed to track the
Braves, thinking that it was just a trivial matter.
"Now that you know, you'll do well to listen to me next time," Jared stated with a satisfied smile.
In the foreseeable future, he would never allow Nicole to do something as stupid as that ever again.
As the filming had halted prematurely and the day was still young, Jared brought Nicole to a restaurant
with a view of the night for a meal to comfort her. It was only after Nicole began to feel better that he
sent her home.
Jared then looked at Nicole. "You said that we'll go ahead and register for our marriage once the filming
is done. Now that it is done, when do we get married?"
Nicole noted the sincerity in Jared's eyes, and this time, her heart softened.
"Any time," she said.
After receiving that answer, a spark of joy appeared in Jared's eyes.
Recently, Jared had been acting like an innocent child before her.
"Alright, once I've helped you with the Braves and what's left of the contract with the film crew, we'll
head to Panem," he said.
"Alright." Nicole nodded.
Her heart fluttered when she saw Jared behaving the way he did. Then, she leaned over and kissed
him on the forehead.
But a kiss on the forehead was nowhere near enough and just as Nicole was about to pull away, Jared
immediately kissed her on the lips before deepening it. In fact, the pair were so engrossed in their kiss
that they had forgotten they were right at the front gate of the house.
Not far away, Sean and Steve stopped the car in embarrassment as they looked at each other, finding
it too awkward to get off the car now.
Although that was the case, Steve did not forget to tease Sean. "Heh, Nicole is already settling down
and some of us haven't even shared a kiss with someone yet."
Sean tensed up a little. "Steve, no one would think you're mute if you kept quiet."
