"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

"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

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

Nicole kept her eyes on Harvey, who was nothing short of awkward, and thought that it was funny. She had deliberately done that that so that Harvey would have no choice but to use up that favor that she owed him. That way, she would not have to feel as if she was beholden to it.However, Harvey was adamant about not mentioning it. Instead, he stayed in her car and refused to get off.The both of them sat in the car, refusing to give in for a few minutes. Seeing that Harvey just would not get out of the car, Nicole could only ignite the engine and drive off to the Sea View Villa.On the way there, Harvey made himself at home in Nicole's car. Unconsciously, he reached out to switch the music player on, but Nicole immediately reacted by smacking his hand away."Weren't you taught to not simply touch other people's belongings?" Nicole shot him a glance."I just wanted to play some music, How is this considered as touching other people's belongings?" Harvey ignored her and proceeded to

"Harvey, you should just simply wash off the mud on your face and hands. Then, Tia will lead you to the shower so that you can wash up." Mrs. Wallace Sr. told Harvey in a caring manner.Harvey looked at her and replied, "Alright.""Oh yeah, let Tia clean your dirty clothes after you've changed," she added."Okay." Harvey then went made his way to the bathroom with Tia leading the way."Grandma, let's head inside." Nicole helped Mrs. Wallace Sr. up and brought her to the living room."Nicole, go and prepare a set of fresh clothes for Harvey." Mrs. Wallace Sr. ordered."Grandma, I don't think we have any clothes for men in this house." Nicole looked at Mrs. Wallace Sr. in embarrassment."I think those oversized clothes you usually wear will fit him. Why don't you grab one of your shirts for him?" Mrs. Wallace Sr. stared at Nicole with her brows raised.Nicole began to blush, 'How could I let Harvey wear my clothes? Besides, they are all filled with my scent.'"Grandma, all of my
