Chapter 1891
'Sadly, there's only one of her in this world.'
Lawrence turned as he breathed an inaudible sigh..
Feeling very upset, Jared held Nicole in his arms as he looked toward Lawrence's direction. "Stay away from that
man."
Nicole looked at him in response. "Can you stop being so jealous for no reason?"
'This is our first meeting with him, and Jared is seeing green already?!' she thought.
"I don't like the way he looks at you." Jared replied, knowing that gaze far too well.
Lawrence was concealing his desire to have Nicole to himself. Besides, to see through Lawrence's intentions was no
easy feat.
"Well, we'll leave right after he has located the Braves for us, and we won't ever have to see him again," she said.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNicole just thought that Jared was simply being paranoid.
"Okay. I think he'll give us an answer by tomorrow," he replied.
As long as Lawrence wished to collaborate with the Johnston Group and not upset Nicole, he would get everything
done to their satisfaction.
"Alrighty then. Now that we're done with our meal and our business, let's go." Nicole finished, feeling extremely out
of place there.
"I knew you wouldn't like it here, so I'm going to take you somewhere," Jared said.
Nicole yawned. "Nah, I'm tired already."
She was already drained last night, and as she had been on a flight for the entire afternoon, she really felt really
exhausted.
Upon noticing how knackered Nicole was, Jared instantly felt a pang of guilt for his inability to control himself last
night. "Fine, let's rest up tonight."
Furthermore, Nicole was pregnant, and therefore, her getting exhausted with such ease was a normal occurrence.
After that, Jared quickly left the place with Nicole in tow, whereupon they headed straight to their hotel...
When they had arrived at their room, Nicole decided that she would go right to sleep after she had taken her
shower. Meanwhile, Jared washed up and was about to bed down on the couch in the living room when Nicole
frowned at him.
"What are you doing?" she asked.
Confused, Jared said, "I'm worried that I won't be able to control myself, so I'm going to sleep outside."
Nicole burst out laughing after hearing that. "Is it really necessary?"
'This man used to hold me while we slept without getting into any funny business. Yet, he can't do it now?' she asked
herself.
"Of course. Now, you're just way too tempting for me. So much so that it's excruciating."
Indeed, whenever they were in close proximity, he would want to hold her in his arms as he smelled the lovely

Even at that moment, Jared could feel a burning sensation in his lower abdomen. "Forget it. I'm heading out."
He just could not bear to think about it anymore. He needed to give Nicole the rest she needed that night.
Nicole noted the pitiful look on his face and issued a sigh in resignation. "We're married now. Don't you think it's
weird for a normal married couple to sleep separately?"
Jared stopped in his tracks and turned toward her. "What's your plan?"
He was the CEO of a company, and yet, this entire episode had stumped him.
"You have to train yourself." She smiled. "You can't just sleep in another room, can you? You have to get some
selfcontrol in."
Jared's thirst for her grew the instant he saw her bright smile.
‘This woman doesn't know how attractive she is, does she?'
"I guess I won't be able to do it for the rest of my life." He frowned.
At the very next second, he leaned toward Nicole. There, he changed his mind, deciding not to sleep in the living
room anymore...
Nicole smiled when she saw him leaning over. Right away, she pulled him by the arm to the bed and reached under
her pillow. Then, she whipped a pair of handcuffs out!
