Chapter 1288

Penulis: Summer
"It bores me to stay here on my own. I might as well go to work." Jared pushed the door open and walked out ahead of Nicole.

Nicole shot him a glance and followed suit.

Now sitting in his car, Jared looked over at Nicole. "Are you coming back to stay the night?"

"No, I'm not coming back," Nicole said, after which she stepped on her gas pedal and drove away.

Jared then ignited his engine and drove to his office. On the way, he could not get Nicole out of his head and was in no mood to work, so he turned around and drove to the hospital.

Once he had arrived at Maximillian's ward, he pushed the door open and walked over. "Grandpa, why are you out of bed?"

He had not visited his grandfather for just a while and to his surprise, his grandfather had already gotten out of bed.

"Jared, you are here?" Mr. Johnston Sr. was standing by the window, admiring the view outside when he heard Jared's voice and turned around.

"Grandpa, did the doctor say that you can get out of bed and move arou

    "Grandpa, you can't be doing this anymore. It will affect your recovery, and as a result, you'll have to extend your stay here." Jared admonished him with concern."I know, but it is just too uncomfortable to be in bed all the time. Besides, I didn't make any rigorous movements. I just went to the window to look at the scenery outside." Maximillian knew he had done something wrong and spoke with a much gentler tone than usual."Mr. Chairman, just hang in there for another week, and you should be able to get out of bed after that. I won't stop you from doing whatever you want after that," the doctor reassured him.Maximillian nodded in agreement with the doctor's advice."Doctor, how long do you think it will take for my grandfather to be discharged from the hospital given his current rate of recovery?" Jared asked."With his current rate of recovery, I think it should be about two or three more weeks," the doctor said in Maximillian's presence.Maximillian, who was on the bed, wa

    Closing the bedroom door behind her, Nicole plonked herself on her queen-sized bed, able to finally get some proper sleep.A few days later, she went to Martin's factory."How is the production coming along, Martin?" Nicole asked, looking at Martin in his office."It is going well. The production levels are gradually returning to the same as before," Martin replied."That's good," Nicole said. "Are there a lot of orders piling up?""There are quite a lot orders coming in, but we're certain that we'll be able to complete them before the delivery dateline," Martin said, confident in his abilities."It seems that you've already gotten a handle on it. By the way, what about the technicians that Jared had recruited for you?" Nicole asked, as she thought of Jared."Those technicians that Mr. Johnston had recruited were godsend. Otherwise, I guess we would have to wait for a few more days before we can start with the production." Martin looked at Nicole with gratitude in his eyes."I

    "Have you noticed any sort of activity from her as of recent?" Jared asked Max."Since her return, she has been on the down-low. Other than the gym, she hasn't been to many other places."Jared could not believe that she would live such a quiet and normal life. To him, her actions were definitely suspicious."Get someone to check out the gym which she frequents," Jared ordered."Understood," Max said."By the way, I need you to find out if the person who went abroad with Nicole has any sort of connections with Joyce." Jared ordered. "Take note of each and every move made. Should there be any updates, report to me immediately.""Understood," Max uttered again."Oh yeah, have you gotten any updates regarding Henry?" asked Jared."No," Max said. "His bodyguards are always with him, so our men can't make a move just yet.""If that's the case, create a window of opportunity to whisk him away." Jared instructed coldly."Understood," said Max."Martin, I think the new facilities ar

    "You know that's not true. Come over and have a seat." Jared stood up from his desk and gestured her toward the couch."Is there anything I can help you with?" Jared asked Nicole."May I only come to you if I need help?" Nicole purposely questioned.Jared studied Nicole from head to toe. 'What's up with her today? Why is she being passive aggressive with her words?'"You know I don't mean it that way," Jared said, briefly explaining himself."Fine, I'm done messing with you. I have something important to discuss with you today." Nicole spared him the banter and began to speak in a more solemn tone."What is it?" Jared looked at her."Didn't you ask for the proposal when we were at The Herald a few days ago?" She took the proposal out of her bag and handed it to Jared. "I've brought it to you today. You may have a look at it."Jared took it from her and flipped through it, "Is this the chip you're planning to develop?""This isn't just about making the chip, it's for you as wel

    "It'll be great if it could be done as soon as possible." Nicole looked at Jared and smirked."Okay, I'll make the arrangements right away," he replied."Thanks in advance," she said."You should get back to work. I'll leave you to it then." Nicole said, as she had completed what she had intended to do there, and did not want to stay and bother Jared."Why? You're just going to hurry off once you've settled your business here?" Jared asked upon noticing that she was about to leave."No, I'm just worried that if I stay here, I'll be bothering you while you work." Nicole looked at him and explained."Nonsense. I'll be even more efficient if you stay." Jared looked at her affectionately and smiledNicole gave it some thought, 'I don't really have anything to do right now, and since he has already asked, I'll just stay here and accompany him.'"Okay then. But it'll bore me to just sit here and do nothing. Do you have a computer which I can use?" she asked."Yes, there is. I have a

    "The suburbs?" Nicole frowned and looked at Jared. "No wonder there are no traces of her activity on the internet. The signal in the suburbs must be pretty poor, right?"In Nicole's imagination, the suburbs which Joyce was staying at must be a remote and secluded place with no residents."It's not like how you imagine. I think the reason as to why she isn't on the internet is that she doesn't want to give her location away." Jared calmly analyzed.After Nicole had heard Jared's analysis, she lowered her head and began to think. 'What he said makes sense too. The McCarthy family had publicly announced that they're returning to their hometown. Why would Joyce hide her whereabouts?'"Jared, there's one thing which I don't understand. The McCarthys have already made the announcement that they're going back to their place of origin. Why would Joyce go into hiding?" Nicole frowned and asked Jared."I guess she must be harboring some sort of unspeakable secret," Jared blurted out."Yeah

    "I'm not in a hurry. After all, I've got nothing else to do today. I thought I'd just check out how things are progressing on site," she said."If you need a space, I can rent one that will fulfill all your needs. Then, you wouldn't have to go around the bush with Harvey," Jared offered, wholeheartedly wishing to prevent Nicole from meeting Harvey.He did not want his own fiancée to constantly associate herself with a selfish man like Harvey."It's fine. There's a free one available, so why would we spend money on rent? Why should I say no to freebies?" Nicole declined, for although she knew that money was not an issue for Jared, she felt that there was no need to waste it on rent."Okay then, whatever makes you happy," he said.Jared had already tried his best to persuade her, and he knew that he could not force her into it.Then, they continued with their lunch.After lunch, Nicole bade Jared goodbye and immediately drove to where Harvey was."Harvey, are you free now?" Nicol

    A thing to note is that the real estate prices in that area were steep. And yet, Harvey had given her an entire floor to utilize. 'Isn't that too much of a favor?'"Harvey, I won't be needing that much space!" Nicole explained to Harvey."It's fine. You can just leave the corner empty if you don't need it." Harvey answered her in a casual tone of voice.It had taken him a lot of time and resources to clear the floor for her, and he had done all of that to ensure that Nicole would have enough space to work."Leave it empty?" That would be such a waste!" Nicole yelled.'He really is ignorant about money,' she thought. 'He doesn't have the brains for business at all. But having said that, this is definitely an excellent location for me. When I buy more equipment in the future, I can expand my business right away. It's amazing!'Nicole felt that there was a possibility for her to occupy all of the space in the future."Harvey, I noticed that all the other floors are occupied. Why is

    "Let's go, it's time to head down. The ceremony will start soon."The group laughed and talked as they left the bridal suite. Jared and his friends, Spencer and Preston, were also guided out by everyone.Now, only the family of four remained in the bridal suite, getting ready for their big entrance."Mommy, it's almost time. Let's get ready," Nolan said, pulling on Nicole's hand.Nicole gently patted Nolan and Lana's cheeks, whispering, "Okay."As she made to stand, Jared extended his hand toward her. Lifting her gaze, she caught Jared in a moment of elegance, his charm unmistakable. A smile bloomed on her face as she placed her hand in his.With a gentle tug, Jared drew her up, his touch tender against her palm.In a swift move, he pulled Nicole into his arms, his other hand circling her waist to pull her close.As Jared looked at Nicole, admiration shimmered in his eyes.

    Nicole laughed off the debate between Lulu and June, saying, "Both are lovely. I'm happy with either."Both sets of jewelry were beautiful, and she felt that either would do."Exactly. Nicole will shine in anything," Cindy said, picking a set. "Let's go with this one."Lulu gave June a victorious look. "Told you this was the one."Cindy then suggested, "Why not wear this for the ceremony and switch for the reception? That way, we use both.""Great idea," June agreed, smiling at Cindy's suggestion.Nicole smiled. "Sounds perfect."With everyone agreeing, the stylist went ahead with preparing Nicole.Lulu watched Nicole, amazed by how calm she seemed. "Aren't you a bit nervous?" she asked. Lulu remembered her own wedding jitters.Nicole bit her lip, a hint of nerves showing. "I'm more excited than anything," she admitted.She had been looking forward to this day, ready to face the future with Jared with hope and joy."Just finished," the stylist announced, stepping back to adm

    "Do you think I don't want to meet someone? I just haven't found the right person," Gary said somewhat resignedly. He had long regarded Nicole as just a friend."Why don't we just try the dates our families set up?" Ryder suggested, calm and collected. He figured since finding someone on his own wasn't working, maybe arranged dates could help. In their circles, it seemed like good matches were meant to be."Arranged dates don't sound great. You hardly know the person. Are we really okay with deciding to spend our lives together like that?" Preston wasn't too keen on the idea."Emery's doing pretty well with it, you know," Ryder said confidently. "I trust our families. They wouldn't set us up with someone terrible. They've probably made sure we'd be a good match."Gary thought it over. "You might be right. Our families aren't just trying to make deals; they want us to be happy."As Gary and Ryder seemed more into the idea, Preston was still unsure. "You guys are serious?""Why not

    Jared held Nicole close and looked at her. "After we get married, we'll move to the estate," he said.Their future home would be just theirs.He thought it was good for Nicole to spend more time with her family since she hadn't been with them for five years. But they knew they would move to the estate later."Okay," Nicole said, nodding. She was happy Jared made the estate close to her family, so she was okay with moving.Jared gently touched her hair and kissed her...****Time flew, and soon it was Nicole and Jared's wedding day.From the morning, San Joto was alive with excitement. Everyone was talking about Jared and Nicole's wedding.Politicians, business leaders, close friends, and business partners all came to wish the couple well.The Riddles were busy welcoming the guests, making everything look amazing."Patricia, hurry up, Charlie's here," Ellar called out as he spotted Charlie. He quickly got Patricia to come and greet him. Max, hearing the fuss, came over too.C

    "You really need to rest. You shouldn't work for the next few days. Stay home and rest. A bride has to look her best," Gloria said, looking at Nicole and making the decision for her."Bride!" Nicole was surprised because she hadn't talked about any wedding yet."Yes, now that everything is settled, it's time for your wedding with Jared," Gloria said, deciding firmly. She used to think it was best for the kids to decide for themselves, but after several delays, she felt waiting longer made no sense. The wedding should happen soon."I was thinking that too," Jared said. They had planned the wedding after solving the Everett problem, but then they found out Lawrence had hurt Nicole in the past, causing more delays. Now, with everything sorted out, they saw no reason to wait. The wedding was the next big step.Nicole looked at Jared and, with a smile, agreed, "Okay." Their wedding had been waiting for five years; it was time, with no need to wait any longer."That's so cool, I'm the f

    Patricia felt a mix of reluctance and happiness as she prepared to part ways with Charlie.Jared glanced at Charlie and said, "It's about time for us to board." He tenderly held Nicole's hand and led her toward the boarding gate."I need to go through the boarding procedures too," Patricia said, biting her lip. "You must find happiness as well.""I will," Charlie assured her with a gentle smile, giving her a reassuring pat on the shoulder. "You've grown up, too. You don't need to cling to me anymore. I believe Ellar will take great care of you."Patricia nodded, then, leaning closer to Charlie, she whispered, 'When Mr. Johnston and Ms. Riddle get married, make sure you bring my future sister-in-law back with you.' Caught off guard, Charlie playfully scolded her, "You little rascal."Doretta, standing not too far away, overheard Patricia's whispered words. Her cheeks turned even redder."Let's go," Patricia announced, then turned to Doretta, adding, "We'll meet again.""Goodbye,

    Lying in bed with Nicole cradled in his arms, Jared whispered gently, "Sleep for a bit.""Mhm." Finally feeling at peace, Nicole smiled slightly, and she quickly fell asleep.As Jared listened to her soft breathing, his eyes softened with affection, and he too closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep.The next morning, as the group got ready to head back to San Joto, Zane and Doretta came to say goodbye."I still have things to finish here, but I promise to be at your wedding," Zane said with a big smile."And I'll be there to wish you well, Nicole," Doretta added.Saying goodbye is always hard, but everyone knew they had their own journeys to continue."Great, we'll see you in San Joto," Nicole said with a bright smile."It's time to go," Zane said, knowing they couldn't wait any longer without risking missing their plane."I've got the paperwork," Patricia said, ready to help with the travel documents for Jared and Nicole. Then, looking at Charlie, she asked, "Need help with

    Nicole was quiet, thinking about everything. 'If I hadn't remembered everything, maybe Lawrence and I could have stayed friends. But after finding out about the airport, it's impossible...'Not only had she regained her memory, but she had also learned about the airport incident. Lawrence had gone to great lengths to prevent her from returning to San Joto."Thanks for saving me before, but you also hurt me. We're even now," Nicole said calmly, looking at Lawrence like he was someone she didn't know anymore.Jared squeezed Nicole's hand gently. "Let's go."They decided to leave the rest to Zane and head back."Wait." Lawrence's voice stopped Nicole. He sounded almost like he was begging. "Please, don't tell Nolan about this."Nicole paused, then said, "I won't tell him. Not for you, but because I don't want Nolan to see how bad people can be."With that, Nicole walked away with Jared.Lawrence sat down, watching her leave, with mixed feelings."Let's go too," Patricia said to C

    "Your robots don't work anymore," a voice said, sounding very pleased. Then, a person came out from behind the crowd, looking pretty proud of himself."Carl!" Nicole was shocked to see him. 'It's Carl!'"It's been a while." Carl smiled and waved at Nicole.Carl had come as soon as Zane told him about the problem. He couldn't just do nothing when Nicole needed help.He didn't expect them to act so soon, which is why he was a little late. But he was still in time to help. Carl was surprised by Lawrence's robots at first, but luckily, the weapons he brought, which he had been working on for years, stopped the robots. This was a big help to everyone."We really need to thank Carl; we would have been in big trouble without him," Zane said, feeling relieved.Zane had asked Carl for help, hoping it would make them more likely to win, but Carl ended up being very important."Thank you," Nicole said with a warm smile. It was nice to see an old friend again."No need to thank me. I'm jus
