Chapter 150
Nicole looked at her and raised an eyebrow.
“I will.”
It took Lulu a while to realize what Nicole meant: she would keep herself warm. Lulu could not help but cackle.
IT
“What a reflex arc, Nicole.”
Nicole said nothing but gave her an elegant,
haughty look.
The two cackled as they walked to the school gate. Lulu planned to go back to the dormitory to study. Nicole thought for a moment and decided to go to the café. She had agreed to give Austin and
company tuition this afternoon.
When Nicole came in front of the café, she
somehow hesitated.
She wondered why she suddenly had such an awkward feeling, which had never occurred to her
before.
Claus inside the café had already spotted Nicole and came out to greet her with a smile. But Nicole seemed to have spaced out as if she did not see
him.
‘What a surprise.’ Claus scratched his chin, not
expecting to see Nicole woolgathering.
Jared was not on the ground floor. Claus looked at Nicole and took out his phone to call Jared. “Boss, Nicole is here, but she is not coming in. I think
something is wrong.”
Jared also saw Nicole coming at the window on the first floor. He was in the room watching Nicole because their last encounter did not go well yesterday. He was motionless just as long as she
remained rooted to the spot.
Max stood beside him, not actually knowing what
Max, who was following Jared hurrying downstairs, happened to hear this, and his heart skipped a beat.
“Sorry.” Jared had no expression on his face. With that, he walked out the door without looking back.
Nicole kept walking up the stairs and came to the room where she usually gave Austin and company tuition. She waited there, looking as if being deep in
thought
When Austin and his buddies came and saw Nicole sitting by herself, Sammey said, “Boss, why didn’t Jared accompany you today?”
‘Accompany me? In their eyes, has it always been Jared who accompanies me?’ she asked in her
mind.
Sammey saw something was wrong with Nicole
and became concerned “Are you alright,
Boss?”
