Chapter 1883
Gloria could not help but laugh. “Hey, you don't have any issues with your academic performance. You shouldn't
burden yourself."
While speaking, Gloria grabbed Nicole by the shoulders and marched her into Jared’s embrace. "Go ahead and
have fun. Leave matters related to school to us."
"Thank you, Aunt Gloria." Jared smiled happily.
His mother-in-law was so supportive that all he could do was accept it. Unable to do much about it, Nicole followed
Jared into the car.
There were hints of sadness in the eyes of Nicole's brothers. However, they had always hoped that Nicole would
find the right, forever partner to live with. Either way, they could only watch as Nicole took a seat in Jared's car and
left.
Happily, Gloria remarked, "This boy is still calling me Aunt. He should switch to using a different term when he's
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtback."
Daniel laughed. “Yeah, hopefully they'll be back soon."
The journey was smooth, and once they arrived at the airport, they boarded the plane. Nicole looked at Jared in
shock. She did not expect Jared to book a private jet just for the two of them.
"This, and you said that you had to book a flight?"
It was not even a usual flight in any sense. It was a private jet!
Jared smiled while he poured a glass of red wine for Nicole. "Did you think that one does not have to set a flight
time for private jets?"
That one sentence made Nicole speechless, prompting her to just grab the wine glass and utter, "Whatever."
In the midst of the conversation, Nicole was about to take a sip of red wine when she suddenly registered a sharp
scent out of nowhere. Instinctively, she placed her glass of wine down and covered her nose in discomfort.
"What happened?" Jared asked.
Nicole could only offer a frown in response. This was not the first time she had become so sensitive to distinct
smells.
After taking a deep breath, she said, "I'm not sure. I've been very sensitive to smells for the past few days.
Sometimes, I'll feel nauseous.
Once Jared had heard that, he froze for a moment.
Then, he replied in shock, "Really? Have you...had your period recently?"
Upon hearing that, Nicole's face darkened. "What do you mean?"
Playfully, Jared answered, "What do you think I'm talking about?"
Nicole understood what he had said in an instant. “Nonsense! That's impossible!"
Nicole had just reached adulthood. Therefore, it puzzled her as to why this could happen.
"You're a doctor. Measure your pulse, and you'll find out," Jared implored, knowing that Nicole could measure
pulses.
Then, he looked at Nicole and said, "Quick. Let's see if I'm going to be a dad soon."
Jared's face was filled with anticipation and his eyes were brimming with joy.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe look of Nicole's face became tense. She was actually afraid to measure her pulse. She knew very well what the
symptoms of pregnancy were. However, she did not dare to think much about it. After all, she was just about to get
married.
"Don't be afraid. No matter what the outcome is, I'll be here." Jared smiled, attempting to comfort her as he could
tell that she was feeling the weight on her heart. "Besides, we're getting married soon. We'll have kids sooner or
later."
Nicole felt a lot calmer after that, but she rolled her eyes at him nonetheless. "What a nice way to put it. All of this is
because of you!"
Jared had been sleeping over at Nicole's place. That was the reason as to why an accident like this would happen!
If she knew, she would not have allowed him to have his way.
At that thought, Nicole braved herself, stretched her hands out, and measured her pulse.
Jared eyed the heavy look on Nicole's face. After a while, Nicole placed her hand down.
Jared could not tell what was going on from her expression, and therefore, he could only ask, "How is it?"
Nicole was feeling flustered, annoyed, and crestfallen.
Still, she did not want Jared to find out about it.
Thus, she pretended to be calm and replied, "Cut that crap. It's just gastroenteritis. I'll feel better after taking some
medicine."
