Chapter 2500
Just as they finished speaking, they were shocked to see Max, who had been following behind them. "B-Boss!"
'The boss hasn't been here for a long time, so why would he suddenly show up?'
Max glanced at the waiter and said, "Go back to work."
"Sure." The waiter glanced at Nicole and Jared before leaving, guessing that these two people were the boss's friends.
After the waiter left, Jared led Nicole to the spot where they used to sit often. However, instead of sitting down, he turned and walked toward the kitchen.
Nicole was slightly surprised as she widened her eyes. 'Why is he going to the kitchen?'
She kept her gaze fixed in that direction as Jared was in there for some time.
In a moment of reverie, she seemed to see Jared grinding coffee for her with his own hands.
The aroma of coffee wafted into her nose. She looked at the steaming cup in front of her, and she suddenly could not tell if it was reality or illusion.
"Taste it." Jared's gentle voice sounded in her ears, pulling her back to reality.
Nicole smiled as she looked at the coffee before her." Thank you."
"Enjoy your coffee. I'll be right back," Jared said before turning and heading back into the kitchen.
Nicole picked up the coffee cup, and just by smelling the aroma, she knew it was her favorite flavor from before, and it was ground by Jared himself.
Jared glanced at Nicole, smiled faintly, and did not explain further.
This place held great significance for him, and during the five years when she had no news, he had worked hard to maintain it as it was at the beginning. Everything in their manor was preserved as if she had never left.
Nicole bit her lip. He appeared calm and composed, but she knew that this was not an easy task.
She gently placed her hand on his, her eyes teary as she lamented, "These five years must've been rough for you."
Although they had both experienced separation, she did not remember him, so it was not painful for her. But he was different. The days and nights when he had been tirelessly searching for her must have been tormenting.
Jared turned his hand to hold hers and pulled her up, saying, "Come on, let's go home."
Nicole looked at him with a faint smile and nodded. She then followed Jared out of the cafe.
