"Yes."
After an unknown amount of time , Jared woke up from bed and pushed open the door. He heard the
sound of cooking downstairs, thinking it was Max in the kitchen, and headed downstairs.
Jared was surprised to see a table full of food when he came to the dining room.
"I didn't know you could cook."
"You're awake?" Nicole heard his voice and came out with the finished dish.
At the sound of a familiar voice, Jared turned and looked into the kitchen with surprise on his face.
"Nicole? What are you doing here?"
"If I don't come, someone might be exhausted,” Nicole spoke with both anger and heartfelt
exasperation.
"Aren't you here now? And you have cooked so many dishes.” Jared was happy to see Nicole,and the
fatigue in his body went away.
"I hope you like it." "Did you make all this?" Jared looked at the table full of dishes with surprise.
“Yeah.I cooked them all according to the online tutorial.Before that, I could only cook some simple
dishes for my grandma.This is the first time I made them." Nicole blushed as she fetched him some
dishes and waited for him to taste them.
Jared looked at the table of food, his eyes reddening from happiness.He did not expect Nicole would
cook for him and make something that she had never made before.He could not help but hold Nicole's
hand and look at her with deep affection.
“Thank you.I will like it as long as it's your cooking."
“Sweet talker.Try it.” Jared took a bite and complimented her.
"It's been a long time since I've had the taste of family cooking, yum.”
“Eat more if you like.Whenever I'm free, I'll make your home-cooked meal." Nicole looked at him
dotingly, feeling sorry inexplicably.
“I don’t want you to be so tired.My woman is supposed to be served, not serving." Jared's domineering
words of love caught Nicole off guard, and her heart throbbed.
“Don’t just look at me.You eat too." Jared gave Nicole a bite of the dish.
The two of them sat together and enjoyed those delicious dishes.
Suddenly, Jared’s phone rang.
He glanced at it then and walked to the living room to answer it.
Looking at Jared, who was on the phone in the living room, Nicole put down her cutlery and waited for
him quietly.
When he finished, he returned to the dining room.
Nicole looked at him.
"Is it time to leave?" Jared hesitated and saw her reluctance to part with him.
He said with a smile, "I can stay for another ten minutes.”
Nicole secretly sighed and asked, “Are you doing okay at the company now?" She had found out the
news about Johnston Group, but it was not all credible.
She wanted to hear from him about the actual situation.
“Don’t worry.I'm the only one in the company who can work with the Turmann family.Those
shareholders wouldn't dare to create trouble for me." Jared could hear that she was worried about him.
"I'll get the engagement done as soon as I'm done with this.” Jared took her hand and looked at her
affectionately.
Nicole could not help but blush and shy up when Jared looked at her with deep affection.
After the meal, Jared got dressed and was ready to go.
Looking at the cool and beautiful Nicole beside him, he could not help but give her a lovesome kiss on
her rosy lips.
Nicole, who was completely unprepared, stiffened up before she responded in a clumsy way.
"Did you miss me?" Jared scratched her nose and teased her.
“Mm.” Nicole nodded graciously.
Jared did not expect her to admit it outright, so he took her into his arms.
The two of them enjoyed a moment of cuddling before they got into the car together.Nicole
accompanied him, and they arrived downstairs at his office.
