Chapter 2274
However, Nicole was not going to express any opinion on this matter. After all, win or lose, it all depended on one's
abilities.
What made her feel angry was the fact that Lawrence would actually make a move on Jared. She never expected
that to happen. Yet, she knew that this was not just business competition.
"If you help him, maybe he might lose a little less," Jared said jokingly.
Nicole could not help but roll her eyes at Jared. "Are you mocking me?"
"If you knew about this, would you have helped him?" Jared questioned.
"You're being childish." Nicole looked away and chose not to answer his question.
If she had known earlier, she would definitely not give Lawrence a helping hand. In fact, she might advise Lawrence

Looking at how Nicole reacted, Jared got the answer to his question. A smile formed on his face.
Then, he tilted his head downwards and left a kiss on Nicole's forehead. With a wide smile, Jared said, "This is
your reward."
"Who needs your reward?" Nicole discreetly gritted her teeth and glared at Jared. 'What kind of reward is this? He
must be playing around with me.1
Jared smiled dotingly and deliberately teased Nicole, "If you're not satisfied with that, then we can..."
Jared's gaze landed on Nicole's lips. However, Nicole immediately dodged him. She quickly reminded Jared," We're
at the office."
'How can he be this ignorant about his surroundings? It'd be so embarrassing if someone were to see us,' Nicole
thought.
Jared grabbed Nicole's hands and did not do anything else. He only brought her to the sofa, and they both sat down
together.
In the blink of an eye, the sun had set.
Everyone had gotten off work, while Jared's office was still lit. There, Jared and Nicole were having dinner.
"You should take a rest later. I'll be watching over it here," Jared said gently.
Once they find the root of the problem, Jared could handle it himself.
"It's fine. I want to track her down." Nicole's gaze was firm. "I want to do it with my own hands."
All this while, she knew Iris was not faithful to the Johnston Group, and the reason was because of Nicole. However,
she did not expect Iris to be this crazy. Iris did not repent at all even after getting fired.
"Are you being jealous? Or are you trying to save me?" Jared smiled. Seeing Nicole being protective over him, he
felt loved.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNicole looked at Jared and said solemnly, "Actually, you could just think of it as me taking responsibility."
After all, she was the cause of this whole incident. It would be fine for her to say that she was taking responsibility
for her mistakes.
Although Jared could tell that Nicole was avoiding the question, Jared did not get frustrated. Instead, he continued
the topic. "In that case, please take responsibility for me for the rest of my life."
Nicole's lips twitched. "Is the big and mighty CEO of Johnston Group pouting right now?"
Jared was not shy at all. In fact, he replied confidently. "I won't argue if you'd like to think that way. As long as it
makes you happy, my darling wife."
Nicole could not help but roll her eyes at Jared. "Who's your darling wife?"
"You." Jared was quick and definite. Then, he immediately planted a kiss on Nicole's lips. "It’s sealed."
Looking at how childish Jared was being, Nicole could not help but laugh. 'Does reverse growth apply to
personalities? Please don't tell me this guy here acted like that when he was younger!'
However, Nicole did not overthink it. She was the only person to have witnessed this version of Jared. And Jared
would only put aside that cold personality in front of Nicole.
