Chapter 2260
The corners of Nicole's lips lifted as she shook her head lightly. 'As I had expected, as hard it was before to push
him away, it is equally as hard to resist the temptation now.'
Nicole changed into a fresh pair of pajamas before laying down on her bed to get some shuteye. It was the first
time Nicole had laid down in an empty bed without him as she looked at the empty space next to her.
Nicole reached for her phone, wanting to give Jared a call.
'He might be busy. No, I should not bother him.’ Nicole hesitated.
Late in the night, Jared returned to the Riddle residence where he saw that Nicole was already fast asleep on the
bed. Jared softened his movements, not wanting to wake Nicole up.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJared quickly showered up and got into bed with Nicole. He frowned when he saw that Nicole was fast asleep with
her phone in her hand. He gently took her phone out of her grasp, and that was when the screen lit up, showing
Jared's contact. Jared squinted his eyes as he stared at her phone, and soon, a flash of softness crossed his eyes.
He reached out and gently caressed Nicole's cheek, 'Did she miss me and wanted to call me?1
Feeling warm and fuzzy, he pulled Nicole into his arms and hugged her tightly.
As her eyes flickered open in confusion, she muttered," You're back."
"Yeah," Jared whispered, whereupon Nicole leaned into his embrace before falling back asleep.
Jared stared at Nicole lovingly as she slept soundly. He let out a soft sigh as he slowly fell asleep.
The next morning, the bright and warm sun rays beamed into the room. When Nicole opened her eyes, she saw
that Jared was still fast asleep. She gently slipped out of bed, careful to not wake him up. However, Jared stirred as
soon as Nicole moved.
"Sorry I woke you up," she apologized, feeling guilty for waking Jared up.
"No, it's okay. It's time to get up anyway." Jared smiled as he smoothened Nicole's hair, to which she raised her
brows.
"You came home so late yesterday; you should get some rest."
"No, it's okay. There's a meeting I need to attend," Jared said as he sat up on the bed with Nicole in his arms.
"What have you been so busy with lately? Is there anything troubling you at work?" Nicole asked, her eyes
brimming with concern.
Jared looked down at Nicole, his gaze wavering. "It's nothing, it's all in the past."
Nicole frowned a little, feeling confused, 'What does he mean when he said it's all in the past? Did he handle the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmissues alone?'
Nicole wanted to press on for more information, but by then, Jared had already gotten out of bed. She bit her lip
and got out of bed without any further questions.
Both of them quickly washed up and changed into sets of fresh clothes before heading downstairs for breakfast.
Nicole swept her glance across the dining table, and there, she noticed that Spencer was not present. This caused
her to raise a brow.
'Spencer did not come back last night. I wonder how they both are doing.'
"Daddy, try this. It's good." Lana's voice blared out, snapping Nicole back to reality.
Then, Nicole watched as Lana passed a sunny side up to Jared.
A proud grin was present on Jared's face as he watched his daughter pass him the egg.
"Daddy has one already. You should eat it so you can grow stronger," Jared softly said as he passed it back onto
Lana's plate.
