Chapter 1937
For some unknown reason, Niki felt an intense feeling of familiarity washing over her as soon as she stepped out of
the car, and in her mind, there were even more blurry memories drifting around.
She involuntarily gazed off at the house located next to the mansion. 'Why do I feel as if I'm familiar with both of
the houses? What is going on?'
Jared's eyes lit up with suspicion as he observed the look of confusion on Niki's face, which made it seem as if this
was her first time here. Soon, Nolan got out of the car behind them and threw himself into Niki's arms.
"Mommy! He didn't hurt you, right?" Nolan glared at Jared.
Niki, fearing that Nolan would raise his ire, immediately lifted the former into her embrace. "He did not. You can
keep your worries at bay."
Nolan finally settled down after her words of reassurance. Jared, on the other hand, had felt an inexplicable sense

Nonetheless, he still spoke to them gently. "Let's get in."
Niki did not dare to offend him recklessly, so she followed him inside. Ian was not present here, so she had to find a
way to make this man let go of him. To soothe his emotions, she accompanied him into the living room.
However, the closer she got to the living room, the stronger that sense of familiarity became. At this point, Niki
began to believe Mr. Leo, who had stated that she had once lived in Hustuaburg. Perhaps that was why she felt such
an overwhelming sense of familiarity with this place.
Jared slowly walked over as Niki surveyed her surroundings with a strange expression on her face. He then took his
coat off and made a cup of coffee for her.
Niki regarded Jared with some suspicion as she looked at the mug of coffee. 'Why is this guy so kind? He even made
me a cup of coffee."
Jared glanced at her, asking, "What is it? Are you afraid that I've poisoned it?"
Niki's eyes dimmed slightly, knowing full well that this was a tactic to provoke her.
It was then that Nolan chimed in. "You are a bad guy! We cannot drink your stuff!"
At that moment, Niki gave him a cold sneer. "It's only natural that I'm scared. Since you've brought me here, there
must be something you want to say. However, as a guest, I should be afraid of nothing."
With that said, Niki took the cup and took a sip of the coffee. The rich flavor profile of the coffee froze her for a
moment as she sat holding the cup in her hand.
This made me think, 'This is such a great coffee.'
She savored it slowly, as each note washed over her palate
with a sense of familiarity. At that moment, she inexplicably found Jared to be more pleasing to the eyes.
Noting Niki's preference for the coffee, Jared could not help but feel a surge of satisfaction. "Your taste did not
change one bit."
Although she was still glaring at him with hostility at the airport, this preference was unique to Nicole; Jared
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmconfirmed that Niki was indeed Nicole. Thinking about this, Jared tightened his grip on the cup. The eagerness in his
eyes was obvious as he looked at Nicole.
Niki was feeling uneasy under Jared's intense gaze, and that was when she slowly set her coffee cup down.
She then broached the subject by asking, "I don't know who you are. We must have some connection since you've
gone out of your way to capture me, right?"
Niki deliberately did not reveal their enmity and continued smiling, "I lost my memories five years ago, so I can't
remember you. I'm sorry. But judging by how you've treated us, I don't think you're a bad person. Are you?"
Niki laid the dynamic of the relationship bare for Jared, hoping he would not confront her so soon. However, Jared
had noticed Nicole's foxy demeanor, and was thus able to confirm once again what her identity was. The Niki in
front of him was indeed Nicole, but one who could no longer recognize him.
The joy of reunion was tinged with sadness and melancholy in his eyes. And yet, it explained the reason as to why
Nicole
had not returned to him during the past five years.
