Chapter 787

Author: Summer
His face seemed a little red.

Jared cocked an eyebrow in disbelief. "What's wrong with my face?"

Nicole hesitated for a moment. "It's a little red. Don't tell me you feel shy now. Isn't it a little too late?" Earlier, he suddenly proposed to her without giving her a heads-up. It was embarrassing for her.

"Hmm, I'm not feeling shy. It was you who was bashful when I proposed to you just now. I saw your smitten face." He had never seen Nicole blushing, and this made him feel she was cute.

After getting teased, she pinched his arm in retaliation. "Nonsense. You have grown a glib tongue recently, eh?"

Strangely, Jared did not feel any pain when Nicole pinched his arm. 'What the hell is wrong with me?' He ripped off his tie and opened the window.

Nicole looked at him again in bafflement, feeling that his face was even redder than before. Seeing him open the car window, she could not help but frown. "Are you feeling hot?"

Jared nodded helplessly. "Yeah, maybe it is the red wine."

    After receiving the call, the hospital CEO had already led someone to wait at the entrance. When he saw Jared's car pulled up in front of the hospital, he went up at once."Miss Riddle, who is his condition?" the hospital CEO asked nervously."He has been drugged with that poison. Call the doctor who could treat him to come over."The hospital CEO gasped and then explained a predicament. "We have no doctor who can treat that kind of poison.""No?""I will call another hospital to send someone over." The hospital CEO took out his mobile phone at once. "It's too late. Take us to the dispensing room." Nicole looked at Jared, whose face was flushed."Alright, come with me." The hospital CEO immediately led the way.In the dispensing room--"Leave us alone. I'll handle this. Also, don't tell anyone about it." After saying that, Nicole closed the door.After giving Jared a glass of water and putting him on the bed to rest, Nicole started dispensing medicine at the dispensing table

    Naturally, she could not say it was a glass of wine. Otherwise, it would be no different from telling him who had drugged him directly. With Jared's temperament, he certainly would leave no one who harmed him unharmed. After all, that person was also part of the Riddle family, and she did not want to implicate them. "Since you have got better. Let me drive you home.""Okay." Nicole helped Jared out of the hospital.Inside the villa, Nicole helped Jared sit on the couch. "Have a good rest. I'll leave now."Nicole was just about to get up when he suddenly heard Jared's wailing voice."What's wrong?" Nicole immediately sat back down beside him."I have a headache. Can you stay with me?" Jared's shrewd eyes glanced at Nicole's expression.Nicole was in a dilemma. After all, Jared had just proposed to her, and if the two of them stayed together for the night, the paparazzi would make a headline if they found out. But seeing Jared's condition, she could not bring herself to leave h

    Daniel said aptly, "Despite our relationship with the Johnston family, we still have to do things on our own merits. We must never put Nicole on the spot and make outsiders think we are only successful because of the marriage between Nicole and Jared.""Your dad is right. You all have to keep that in mind. I'm afraid that more people will scrutinize us from now on. You all should be more careful with your conduct outside," Gloria said with concern. "We will, and we will never cause Nicole difficulty." Sean looked at his parents, then at Nicole. Something came to mind and Stanley asked, "Mom, Dad, since Nicole is getting engaged, don't we need to make preparations?""Right, right. I was too happy and forgot such an important thing." Gloria laughed and ridiculed herself. "What do you like, Nicole? I will prepare it for you." Gloria looked at Nicole with a smile. "Yeah, whatever you like, just say it." Daniel chimed in. "It's alright, Dad, Mom. Jared had got it all sorted out.

    "Hmm, it really looks a bit too busy.""Are there any more special ornaments?" Gloria asked the service staff."Yes, there's a new Mona-style necklace, simple and generous. Let me show you.""Okay.""Is this lady wearing it?""Yeah.""Can I help you put it on?"Nicole looked at the necklace in the service staff's hands and then at Gloria. "Absolutely." The service staff helped her put it on neatly. "This necklace matches your beautiful neck perfectly.""Let me see." Gloria looked at Nicole, who was wearing the necklace."Well, not bad. Do you like it?" Gloria asked for her opinion."It's fine. I will take this.""I will buy this necklace." Gloria turned to the service staff."Wait a minute. I will pay for it." Nicole handed out his bank card to the service staff.Gloria stopped her. "How can I make you pay? This is a gift from me. Keep your card away.""Mom, I'm happy that you came out with me. I can't make you spend money again." Nicole knew the necklace was expensive.

    "Mom, Nicole is apparently bullying me." Norah tugged at Gloria's hand.Gloria sighed helplessly. "Nicole really didn't let me spend money. Look, her credit card is still here." Gloria showed Norah the bank card.Norah was displeased when she saw the credit card in Gloria's hand. "I really didn't expect that you had a credit card. Is it a credit card?""Whatever card it is, it has nothing to do with you."Nicole took the card from Gloria and handed it to the service staff. She then ignored Norah and turned around. "Mom, pick an ornament you like. I will buy it for you.""It's alright. I have a lot of jewelry. Where do you get so much money to buy necklaces? Is it really a credit card?" Nicole was still a student, yet she did not want Gloria to spend money on her, so Gloria could not bring herself to let Nicole pay for her."Don't worry, Mom. Jared gave it to me." Nicole made up a random story.Gloria was happy for her upon hearing that. "It is so sweet of him."Norah was comple

    "Yes, I know Norah best. Isn't it just trying on clothes? You can make an excuse on the clothes, not refuting her kindness and relieving you of worries," Samuel echoed. Seeing her two brothers so concerned about her, Nicole also knew what Norah was trying to pull. "Okay, let's try it." Once inside the fashion boutique, Norah said to the staff, "Get my sister a dress that best matches her looks." The staff glanced at Nicole and saw that she was dressed casually. "Our outfits are all fashionable. I'm afraid they don't match the look of this lady." Norah felt a little better when she heard that Nicole was belittled. But she kept a straight face and said, "Do you mean my sister looks too ordinary? She is a member of the Riddle family. You had better think twice before you open your mouth.""I'm so sorry. Mrs. Riddle, Miss Riddle, and Mr. Riddle. She is new here and doesn't know the rules." The person who spoke was the boutique manager, who shot the staff a knifelike look."What a

    "You have to give an explanation for this." The woman angrily pointed at the boutique manager's nose. She was a VIP customer of the fashion boutique. Never had she expected things like this would happen to her one day.The boutique manager apologized quickly. "It was an oversight on our part. I'm so sorry. The few pieces of outfits you tried on today will be given to you as compensation. We're so sorry for what happened.""Do I look like I need these pieces of clothing?"The boutique manager apologized again. "I'm sorry. That's not what I mean." "I want her to get down on her knees and apologize." The woman pointed to Norah on the floor. Norah gasped. Knowing she had screwed up big time, she looked at Gloria with a pitiful face. "Mom, help me." Gloria was embarrassed, wondering how the child she raised could do such a thing. But she also could not bear to leave Norah behind."My daughter is at fault and should apologize, but you can see that she is still a kid and has injured

    Nicole looked at the kind Gloria. She did not want her mother to be deceived by Norah's hypocrisy. "I was supposed to be the one Norah wanted to video-record." "What?" The three of them looked surprised."You heard that right. If I hadn't noticed it and changed the fitting room at the last minute, I'm afraid it would have been me who lost my temper just now.""What I didn't see coming was that someone else got implicated. This will be a lesson for Norah." Nicole calmly told of what had happened. "I really didn't expect that since Norah left the family, a well-behaved girl could change to become like that, not the Norah I knew anymore." Gloria sighed. "But why would she do that? Why target Nicole?" Gloria was none the wiser."Must be jealousy. She thought Nicole stole the life that should have belonged to her." Spencer was a sensible person.Gloria glanced at Nicole, then looked out the window and sighed again. Nicole said not a word again until she was back at the Riddle Mans

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.

    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
