Chapter 2785

'Ellar often looks like a sad, miserable kid. He looks like he's gullible and easy to trick, but he's actually really sly. He

is getting Mr. Johnston to take Ms. Riddle home, so I don't have to. But just because I'm not the one taking Ms.

Riddle home, doesn't mean I'll give him the chance to hang out with me alone.'

Patricia took a deep breath and sat down calmly, acting like everything was normal as she waited for the dishes to

be served.

Ellar stole a quick glance at her. Seeing that she was not acting weirdly, he breathed a sigh of relief. He knew

Patricia was too clever to not have seen through his plan, but there would be nothing for him to worry about as long

as Patricia was not mad or anything.

After everyone had been seated, the waiter proceeded to bring the food in, whereupon they began eating. The air

in the room had gotten a little tense the moment Jared showed up, but everyone tried to keep their discomfort

under wraps.

After a bit, Jared took Nicole with him and left the restaurant. With them gone, the atmosphere became even

livelier as everyone got louder.

After Jared and Nicole had exited the restaurant, Jared looked at her. "You're still hungry, right?"

He noticed that she had not eaten much before the two of them left the premises, and figured that she had not had

enough.

Nicole smiled. "You know, it gets difficult for everyone to relax and enjoy their food with you around. Let's head

somewhere else."

"A little date just for the both of us," Jared smirked.

Nicole gave Jared a playful look and linked her arm with his as they got into the car. "Why did you agree to Ellar’s

request?"

She was genuinely curious. Though she knew it was Ellar's idea, she could not help but wonder why Jared had

agreed.

"Well, I am the in-law," Jared said as if it was an obvious fact, and as if it was not a big deal for him to look after his

cousin-in-law.

Upon hearing that, Nicole's eyes widened in surprise." Really? Is that it?"

'Is he that easy to please? Just because Ellar is his cousin-in- law?' she wondered.

Jared affectionately squeezed Nicole's nose. "Well, what else should it be? Isn't that right?"

Curious and deep in thought, Nicole tilted her head and looked at Jared. "Not that there's anything wrong with that.

But it just seems too easy for anyone to get you to do something, like it doesn't quite match how you usually are."

Jared smiled and gently held Nicole's hand. To him, nothing else mattered apart from the happiness he would feel

whenever he was with her.

They pulled up at a diner, ordered a few simple dishes, and began eating again thereafter. Having only nibbled on a

bit earlier, they felt much better now that their stomachs were filled, both with food and the simple joy of just being

able to enjoy a meal together.

After dinner was over, Nicole cautiously asked Jared, "Are your people allowed to date?"

Puzzled, Jared turned to look at her. "Why do you ask?"

"I think Ellar might have a crush on Patricia," she replied.

In response, Jared flashed her a smile out of amusement." That's for them to decide. It's not my place to get

involved in things like these."

"Oh, that's good," Nicole said.

Nicole felt a little relieved. She had noticed that Patricia seemed to be resisting each and every advance Ellar had

made thus far. She was not sure if it was because they were not allowed to date or if it was because Patricia simply

did not like him. If it was about permission, she thought she could perhaps talk to Jared. Similarly, if Patricia had

simply rejected Ellar's advances out of nothing but pure disinterest in him, she would not interfere. After all,

relationships should be forged based on mutual feelings, not pressure.

"Mr. Johnston and Ms. Riddle. You really know how to enjoy yourselves, don't you? Leaving the kids at home for a

romantic evening?" Harvey's voice suddenly blared out behind them.

As expected, the sarcastic comment made Nicole frown.' He's like a shadow you can never get rid of! Gosh, he's

always around me! Why does he have to be everywhere?'
