Chapter 2129

“Don’t get me started.” Dillon briefly explained the situation with a dejected tone, feeling increasingly unlucky, as things were not going well.

“Why did it end up like this?” Snow’s face turned pale upon hearing the outcome, feeling utterly frustrated.

She had been eagerly awaiting a favorable result for Nicole’s arrest, but why did it turn out like this?

“How could that wretched Nicole be so smart? How did she escape?” Karen gnashed her teeth in frustration.

Dillon’s eyes turned cold as he said, “Let’s see how long she can last.”

“Dad, do you have a plan?” Snow’s eyes lit up with a glimmer of hope.

“Why ask when you won’t be of any use to us? Just stay out of trouble for now.” Dillon left with these words as he took big strides upstairs.

He was already feeling annoyed, yet everyone still kept bombarding him with questions, making him even more agitated.

Karen and Snow exchanged glances. Their expressions grew serious, but they did not dare ask any further.

As the sun set, it cast a golden glow over the horizon.

Nicole came out of the company and saw Jared waiting for her.

She approached him quickly with a smile and said, “Have you been waiting for long?”

Normally, he would be sitting in the car. But today, he had gotten out, so she guessed that he had arrived early.

“No, I haven’t.” Jared gently raised his hand to stroke Nicole’s hair.

Under the setting sun, the shadow of the couple was stretched out on the ground. Their shadows met each other at one point, creating a beautiful and romantic image.

“You seem to be in an exceptionally good mood today.” Jared looked at Nicole, his eyes filled with tenderness.

“The plan succeeded, so I obviously have to be happy.” Nicole knew that Jared must have already known everything, so there was no need to hide anything.

He smiled indulgently and asked, “Is it because the plan succeeded, or because you have a new plan?”

Nicole could not help but roll her eyes at Jared. She said,” You know about that too, huh? I seriously suspect that you’ve planted spies around me.”

“I just understand you.” Jared’s lips curled up as he held her delicate hand with a gentle smile.

Nicole pouted as she thought, ‘Since he knows me so well, there’s nothing surprising about me anymore.’

Jared could not help but chuckle when he saw her frustrated expression. He raised his hand to stroke her hair and said, “When you regain your memories, you’ll know that you understand me just as well.”

Nicole bit her lip. But I can’t experience the feeling he’s talking about without my memories.’

Seemingly understanding her thoughts, Jared suggested,” Then I won’t mention it anymore. I’ll just wait for you to tell me.”

“Your words, not mine.” Nicole raised her head, as she searched for reassurance in Jared’s eyes.

Looking at her raised chin and the enticing shade of her red lips, Jared lowered his head and gently pecked her lips before promising her dotingly, “Of course.”

Nicole’s cheeks instantly flushed when she felt an electrifying sensation rushing through her lips.

“Just talk to me, and stop being so touchy,” Nicole scolded Jared with a glare, looking all shy and coquettish.

Jared’s eyes darkened for a moment before he dominatingly wrapped his arms around her and started kissing her…

When Nicole was finally released from his hold, her mind was still in a daze. After gradually coming back to her senses, her pink cheeks became even more flushed.
