Chapter 1695
Nicole used to suspect that Gloria and Daniel had abandoned her on purpose. However, she turned out to be very
wrong. Her parents still loved her a lot.
"I can finally give them to you now..." Gloria showed her every piece of item in the boxes before wiping her tears.
Nicole stepped forward and gave her a hug. "Thank you, mom. I'm beyond grateful to have you in my life."
Gloria immediately burst out crying after hearing what Nicole had said.
The guilt that had been bothering her all those years was finally gone.
Nicole was so sensible that she felt very sorry. "Come on, let's not be sad. We should eat some cake now." Daniel
wistfully said as he could not wait for the celebration to begin.
Nicole did not hesitate anymore. She went straight for the cake, but it was then that someone grabbed her.

Nicole nodded before making a wish. Jared looked at Nicole dotingly and desperately hoped that her wish had
something to do with him.
Then, Nicole opened her eyes and blew the candles off.
The butler switched the lights on, after which everyone got seated and started eating the cake and their dinner.
Nicole sat beside Jared and whispered, "Hey, why didn't you tell me about this earlier?"
'Clearly, he knew about this before. How could he hide it from me?' she asked herself.
'It wouldn't be a surprise if I did." Jared smiled faintly and clinked his glass against Nicole's.
Nicole then downed the glass of wine angrily.
Nicole did not know if she was just too happy or if it had something to do with Daniel's wine.
She actually felt a little tipsy when she eventually began to unwind.
Jared noticed that Nicole had finished eating and that her cheeks had become very reddish too.
Thus, he smiled and said, "Mr. and Mrs. Riddle? I'll bring Nicole upstairs. I think she's drunk."
'I'm not." Nicole shook her head, though she did indeed look a little tipsy.
Daniel quickly said. "Sure, go on."
Meanwhile, Mrs. Wallace Sr. was also there, and Gloria was happily chatting away with her.
"Okay," Jared said and helped Nicole up the flight of steps.
Nicole got so close to Jared, that she could feel the warmth in his body when they were walking in the corridor.
She looked up, beamed at him, and said, "Jared, you smell pretty good."
That was Jared's first time seeing how drunk and carefree Nicole was. He was intrigued as he looked at her even
more affectionately. 1
"Do you like it? I'll spend the night with you in your room if you do..." he joked, knowing that Nicole would just throw

Unexpectedly, Nicole grabbed him by his tie and dragged him inside when they had walked up to her room.
"Sure..." She mumbled before closing her distance with Jared.
Then, she raised her chin and kissed Jared on his lips!
Nicole had never acted in such a lascivious manner before. The lower part of Jared's body then tightened, and he
felt very nervous.
He kissed her back unwittingly and only bothered to pull his lips away after a very long time. "That's enough, Nicole.
Don't play with fire..."
Even though he wanted to stay in her room very badly, he was not trying to do anything else in the house...
Besides, Nicole was behaving too wildly that night, and he was worried that her family would hear everything if he
lost control of himself.
However, Nicole could not stop herself anymore as she chuckled. "I thought you wanted to stay here, hmm? Are
you regretting it now? It's too late."
She held Jared’s chin and teased him, "Tonight... you're not going anywhere.
