Chapter 746

The next day, Jared sent Nicole to school.

On the way, Jared made a pact with Nicole, wanting her to stay away from Gary and Zeke and
forbidding her to see Martin.

Claus, who was driving and listening in to this, was stupefied. He had never seen his boss so jealous
and so lacking in self-confidence.

Hearing what Jared said, Nicole laughed involuntarily. “Okay, I get it.”

She did not take his words seriously but just thought it was funny.

Jared also looked as if he could not help himself. At the school gate, when Nicole got out of the car,
Jared followed her.

“Why did you get out of the car? You can just drop me here.” She did not want Jared to follow her to the
school gate, as that would attract unnecessary attention.

“Something to do with Mr. Ellison.” He looked serious but pretended to be mysterious and did not tell
her anything.

Nicole thought it was a work-related matter and did not ask again. ” I will go to class now.”

Jared nodded and then went with Claus to Mr. Ellison’s office.

Nicole looked on as he went, and she felt a little puzzled. But she said nothing and headed straight to
the classroom.

Soon, Jared arrived at Mr. Ellison’s office.



The principal, Thomas Ellison, was surprised that Jared would come to him early in the morning. He
got up with a smile. “How come you have time to come over?”

‘Jared seems to be keen to visit my office recently.’

Jared smiled. “I’m here with a purpose, Mr. Ellison.”

With that, he asked Claus to take out his phone and bring up a video for Mr. Ellison’s eyes.

Mr. Ellison was puzzled, not knowing what Jared wanted to show him. He glanced down at the video.

It turned out to be the video of Nicole saving Gary yesterday. In the second half of the video, there was
a clip of a figure fleeing in the background.

Mr. Ellison was surprised at how Jared got this recording.

“What do you want, Jared?”

Jared did not keep him guessing. “Justice for my girlfriend.”

Mr. Ellison was surprised again, looking at Jared with his eyes widening. Nicole had rejected him
before. He did not expect that she and Jared would be in a relationship. “You and Nicole…”

“You guessed it right.” Jared did not deny it. “I didn’t want to bother you for such a trivial thing, but
neither do I want to step on your toes. So I’m going to leave it to you, Mr. Ellison.”

There was a hint of threat in his voice. If Mr. Ellison did not deal with it, he would. He just wanted to let
Mr. Ellison save face.

Mr. Ellison knew Jared, who was mature and introverted but never revealed his thoughts. It surprised
him



that Jared would confront him because of Nicole. It just showed how important Nicole was to Jared. At
this point, his wish for Nicole to become his granddaughter-in-law vanished. He knew Harvey could
never beat a rival like Jared.

“You got it.” Mr. Ellison whispered. “I will handle it. Nicole is a top student of our school, and I will
protect her, for sure.”

Jared was pleased and at ease, knowing that Mr. Ellison also cared about Nicole.

Since Jared was here, Mr. Ellison said, “I have thought through the proposal of cooperation you
mentioned last time. I wonder if you’re still interested?”

This surprised Jared, as Mr. Ellison had never given a definite answer until now.
