Chapter 276

He felt that the change in Mr. Riddle Sr.’s attitude toward Nicole was just too great.

It was not only because of the Rogers family but there was something else that he did not know hidden within.

Who was the doctor that Nicole found? So much so that the doctor could save Mr. Riddle Sr., who had a literal death sentence on his head. It was really a miracle.

He had witnessed how Mr. Riddle Sr. treated Daniel and Dillon today. ‘If it were not for my quick thinking, I probably would have ended up the same as Dillon.’

Thinking of this, a grim look appeared on Damien’s face.

It seemed like he could no longer underestimate Daniel’s family. Johnston Group Office. As he had met Nicole at Nottingbrook, the irritability within him had slowly subsided over the past two days as he let out a gentle smile.

Max was reporting to him the quarterly summary report of the current quarter, and seeing Jared in a good mood, he heaved a sigh of relief.

He did not need to think to know that only Nicole could control his boss’ emotions like that.

When Nicole was not around his boss, even a smile was a luxury. Yet, ever since meeting her, he had been smiling so brightly it was weird.

‘It seems like I’ve underestimated Miss Nicole’s place in the boss’ heart.’

Jared did not care about him being distracted as his phone suddenly lit up as a message came in.

He did not say much as he picked up his coat and walked out. Max looked at him for a few seconds before finally reacting and chasing after Jared.

Jared walked straight to the car, and before Max could even open the door for him, Jared had left him behind as he started the car and sped in a familiar direction. Max’s hand paused in midair as he looked at the puff of smoke left behind by the speeding car. He shook his head helplessly.

“Really…”

‘Once he got a woman, he straightaway forgets about his assistant.’ Jared did not have the time to care about Max’s feelings. Everything in his mind was cast aside for one single purpose.

To see her.

He could not be bothered why Zeke was beside her, nor did he care about how she could cure Mr. Riddle Sr.

Now that she is back, then he will go see her.

Nothing more. A few stray strands of hair fell before his eyes, yet they were very quickly blown aside by the strong wind pouring in through the open window, revealing his deep and beautiful eyes. It was so beautiful it was unreal. Nicole had thought that the school gate should be deserted when she returned to school at this hour. Yet when she got off the car, she found out that a group of girls was standing at the entrance. Nicole did not know what they were doing. She simply just walked ahead and wanted to walk around them.

Just as she was about to step onto the school grounds, she saw an extremely cool pink sports car, and someone very familiar was standing in front of the car.

When the other party saw her, he immediately walked over. As shadows gave way to light, Nicole could see the person’s magnificent face clearly. When she saw him, her tiredness dissipated.

Ignoring the gaze of others, she walked toward him as a light smile appeared on her face. When Jared saw her smile, his expression softened. “Your grandpa’s matter is settled?” Nicole looked at his handsome face and nodded. “Why are you here?” Jared looked at her without replying. The pleading in his eyes seemed to be overflowing. Nicole looked at his attractive eyes, and the glow in his eyes was brighter than the starlight. She then understood something. Nicole then smiled. A smile as pure as snow, with a tinge of understanding. :
