Niki yanked Jared through the doorway, only to realize she had no clue where to go. To her surprise,
Jared took charge and wrapped his arm around her waist, guiding her straight into the study. Then, he
pressed her against the door panel.
"Y-You don't have to get so close to me!" Niki cursed in her mind. 'Seriously, I came here to discuss
business with him! Why does he keep flirting with me all the time?'
Jared lowered his head, locking his gaze with hers, his eyes penetrating. "What's the matter? Are you
feeling nervous?"
As Niki once again sensed his overwhelming presence, her body involuntarily tensed up, particularly
when she thought about their previous kiss and the memories it invoked. She couldn't help but wonder
if they had truly shared an intimate moment. The thought caused her face to flush with heat!
"Take it easy," Niki couldn't take it anymore. She pressed her hand against his chest, mustering her
courage and meeting his gaze. "Even if... even if there was something between us in the past, I've
changed. That's not who I am anymore." Her eyes shimmered with determination and a hint of
pleading.
Niki needed time to process this information. She also wanted to figure out what exactly had happened
between them in the past and why he was her child's father.
A flicker of hurt crossed Jared's face as he observed the distant expression in her eyes. "What do you
mean?" In his mind, whether it was the past version of her or the present, she was his wife—the person
he cherished most. Yet she had just said, 'That's not who I am anymore.'
Niki paused, taking a moment to compose herself before speaking in a calm tone. "It's simple... Even if
there was something between us in the past, we've been apart for five years. During that time, I've built
my own life, and you can't keep me tied to you in this ambiguous state."
She could endure these three days, but she couldn't continue to linger by his side with such ambiguity.
"Ambiguous?" Jared's eyebrows shot up, and anger flickered in his eyes. Abruptly, he released her and
forcefully pulled open a drawer, retrieving two Panem marriage certificates. "Take a good look, we're
legally married!"
Niki blinked, slightly confused, and instinctively opened the two small booklets. She felt surprised that
she could actually read Panemian. She could even comprehend it, and indeed, they were genuine
Panem marriage certificates!
Being well aware of Panem's laws, she knew how difficult divorce could be, prompting many people to
seek marriage there as a means of providing security for their partners. She hadn't expected that she
had actually tied knot with this man in Panem! Internally, she exclaimed, 'Oh my God! This news is too
overwhelming, I can't process it!' Turning to Jared, she asked, "Are you absolutely certain we're legally
married? I wasn't... coerced or anything, right?"
Otherwise, Niki couldn't fathom why she would have gone to a country like Panem with a man to
register their marriage! How deeply must she have loved him to make such a decision? Yet, the
imposing figure standing before her also evoked a sense of fear...
"Coerced?" Jared nearly burst into laughter. He really wanted to pry open this woman's mind and see
what she was thinking!
Seeing Jared's increasingly displeased expression, Niki swiftly understood the gravity of the situation
and said, "I was just joking..." She and her child were still under his control, and she couldn't afford to
provoke him. "But I do need time to process this information and thoroughly investigate my past..."
Upon hearing that she wanted to investigate, Jared sarcastically remarked, "If you really wanted to
know, why did you throw away the information from that day?"
When Nicole had disappeared, along with the Fire Crest, Jared had feared that someone might find
Nicole before him and cause her harm.
