Chapter 677
‘Fortunately, Nicole did not get to enter the campus; otherwise, I would have been done for tonight,’
Max thought to himself. Seeing the smile on Jared’s face after seeing Nicole, he could finally breathe a
sigh of relief.
Nicole did not know what Max was thinking. After she got into the car, she just rested her arm on the
windowsill and said nothing.
Jared looked at Nicole. He could barely see her snow white jaw as her face was in the shade.
He could not help but lean over and asked her gently,” You went to the café to look for me. Why did you
leave instead of waiting for me?”
Nicole turned to look at him. There was a rare sense of dilemma on her icy face. “You just returned
from abroad, so I guessed you would be busy. Besides, I needed to return to the dormitory because the
gate was closed.”
Her thoughtfulness softened Jared’s heart.
“But it was way past the time, and you didn’t get to enter, right?” Jared reached to stroke her hair.
Nicole did not resent it at all. She nodded matter-of factly. “Yeah, thanks to someone; I missed the
school gate’s closing time.”
Jared looked at her; she sounded as if she were complaining but looked fearless. He could not help
smiling, and his expression became gentler.
His eyes upturned, and he exuded an indescribable charm as he propped a hand to his forehead.
“Since you have no place to go because of me, I will take you to go somewhere fun.”
Nicole raised an eyebrow. “Racing again?” She did not want to go because she was tired today.
“Some fun place; not just that one.” He instructed Max to turn the car around and drive out of town.
No one was talking for a while, and the only sound in the cabin was the soft music. Nicole smelled the
sandalwood scent on Jared’s body and felt inexplicably at ease. She slowly closed her eyes and
enjoyed a rare moment of serenity.
By the time she woke up, the car had stopped, and she found herself leaning against Jared’s shoulder.
Nicole was surprised. She just thought of taking some shut-eye, not expecting to call asleep just like
that. For ten years, she had not been able to sleep so soundly in front of others. 2
Nicole looked at the extra suit jacket on her body and was bewildered. Grabbing the suit jacket, she
looked up at Jared.
“You’re awake.” He was wearing only a shirt, habitually rolling up a section of the cuffs, looking like a
hippieish noble prince.
Nicole handed Jared his coat and looked at him. “Thank you.”
Jared cocked a charming eyebrow at her politeness. “Why are you so polite to your boyfriend?”
Nicole looked at him awkwardly. Every time when Jared teased her, she would be at a loss for how to
react.
Jared could not help smiling when he saw how nervous she was. He motioned for her to look out the
car window and said, “Here we are. Don’t you want to go in?” Nicole followed his eyes and saw two
bodyguards at the entrance, which seemed to be that of a clubhouse. She pondered for a second and
then said, “Give a second.”
Then she tore her T-shirt from the waist, revealing her fair and slender waist, and then spread her hair,
messing it up, making her naturally curly hair look even more fluffy and wild.
Jared looked at her and cocked an eyebrow in surprise.
