Chapter 1710
At this moment, Nicole had already gotten down from the car. Under Max's watchful eye, they entered the garage
in which the car was kept.
This entire time when Nicole had returned home, she had not been investigating. But she did not forget the basics.
Once she had entered the garage, she began to look for traces of evidence.
The damaged car had been towed back there. Although it was in a terrible condition, there were still some clues to
be found.
Max had never seen this side of Nicole. After they had entered the garage, they had examined the footprints on the
floor and the car's body. While she was at it, she really looked as though she was professional policewoman in the
midst of an investigation in a crime scene.
"Miss Riddle, you're amazing." Max always felt that he was very meticulous when he conducted his investigation,
but most of it was done through CCTV.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNicole's methods, however, were similar to that of a police officer's.
"Usually, I won't use such methods. But I'm in quite a rush this time," she said.
If someone else were to hurt her, she would usually have the patience to wait and lure them out. But since the
person had
gotten Jared injured instead, she could not bear to wait.
Soon after, Nicole passed the fingerprints she had managed to collect to Max. "Go and find the identities of all who
had touched this car. There must be someone suspicious."
Even if the driver wore gloves, the one who had tampered with the tire would leave some prints.
"Alright!"
After doing all these, Nicole looked at the time, and realized that it was already ten. After much consideration, she
asked Max to send her to Jared's place.
At that time, Jared had already fallen asleep, so Nicole went on to sleep in the adjacent room.
The next morning, when Jared headed downstairs, Max told him that Nicole had stayed the night.
Jared was caught by surprise, for the woman had insisted that would not spend the night there. Yet, she was still
worried about him, and came back anyway.
With a gentle smile, Jared made a cup of coffee for Nicole. Then, he asked the kitchen staff to make Nicole's
favorite breakfast.
While waiting for Nicole to come down, Jared was already sitting on the dining table with a beaming smile on his
face.
"You're up?" Jared was wearing casual clothes, but he exuded a relaxing presence which made his handsome face
look even friendlier.
Nicole smirked. "You're feeling better now?"
As soon as she had uttered those words, she sat down next to Jared. Then, she took the plate of special breakfast
and coffee from Jared's hands.
After taking a sip, she noticed that the coffee tasted rich and fragrant. As expected, Jared's coffee suited her taste
buds the most.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJared nodded. "With such a beautiful woman taking care of me, of course I'd feel better. You should've left last
night, so why did you come back?"
Nicole raised her eyebrows. "I went and checked the fingerprints at the circuit. After that, I came back."
Jared could not help but eye her when she said that." Previously, when you were in trouble, I did not see you
investigate so quickly."
Jared had always known how efficient Nicole was, but never had she ever been in a rush to make a move.
Nicole shot him a glance. "This time round, I can't wait any longer. Not when my man has gotten hurt."
'My man'.
Indeed, those words were delivered with much dominance and assertiveness.
Suddenly, Jared laughed out loud. "I didn't know that I held such a special place in your heart."
"Nonsense!" Nicole rolled her eyes at Jared bashfully. 'This guy is clearly talking smack on purpose.'
Jared smiled and wiped the coffee stains off the corner of her lips. "Very good. Please, do keep it up."
As he spoke, he could not resist from raising his hand to stroke Nicole's hair.
Nicole was stiff when she felt his gentle touch. However, she did not slap his hand off. Instead, she allowed him to
continue.
Then, Nicole completed her meal and got ready for school.
Before she left, Jared reeled her in and gave her a deep, passionate kiss.
