Chapter 598

A thoughtful expression appeared on Elijah's face as he noticed Jared's smile.

Nicole looked over toward them and saw Jared.

Though, she was not surprised. She walked over to him casually, stood beside him, and said calmly, "You're late."

The smile in Jared's eyes deepened. He watched as Nicole took his hand and pulled him toward Elijah.

"Here is the answer to your question," she said.

Her voice was low, but there was a hint of certainty.

Nicole glanced at Jared and said, "This is the man 1 like."

At that moment, a set of complex emotions appeared behind Elijah's eyes.He subconsciously looked at Carl and saw the sadness in his eyes. He then turned to Nicole and sighed.

'She's a clever girl" he thought.

Elijah did not want to humiliate himself, so he smiled and nodded.

"You have good taste," he said to Nicole.

As if nothing had happened, the group invited Jared in.

Though, everyone looked at Nicole in shock.

"No wonder the leader valued her so much. She has a connection with the founder of the JJ Johnston Group!" Vera noticed that Merry was standing still, looking at the backs of Nicole and Jared walking together.

Her stare was like a sharp sword that pierced through Nicole's back.

A sinister look appeared in Merry's emerald eyes.

The scene of Jared and Nicole being together broke her heart.

'How could this be? How could this be?!' Vera glanced at Carl, who looked a little lost.

She stepped forward to comfort him, but he walked past her without any facial expression.

"Aunt Merry, did you see that?" Vera whispered.

Merry did not answer. Instead, she lowered her gaze and walked into the manor as if nothing had happened.

Initially, many collateral descendants wanted to initiate a conversation, but they noticed Merry's cold aura and decided to stay silent. However, Vera, who was closest to her, heard her say, "I'll make her pay." Jared sat across from Elijah in the manor while Nicole sat beside him. She looked at Elijah, who had a solemn expression, and asked calmly, "This is the distinguished guest you were talking about?" Elijah nodded.

At the same time, Carl, who sat beside him, lowered his head, which made people wonder what was going on in his mind.

Jared looked at Nicole and put her hands over her shoulders while he played with her hair.

A smile appeared in his eyes as he felt the smooth and silky hair in between his fingers.

Janus, who stood at the side, was stunned when he looked at the scene in front of him.

'I've never seen him so relaxed...So... Happy" he thought.

His master had always been elegant and unpredictable.

Jared had never been so comfortable in front of people. 'Who in the world is this girl?!'
