Chapter 277

“It’s still early. Make me a cup of coffee.”

Jared did not speak as he blinked at Nicole as he walked toward the cafe.

Nicole’s voice rang out behind him. “What? Don’t want your car?” A gentle smile appeared at the corners
of Jared’s lips. ‘She’s already here. What’s the need for the car?’

The two walked side by side. Under the street lamp, a beautiful silhouette was formed.

Inside the coffee shop, Klaus was back to being the counter staff. As he was wiping the cup out of
boredom as he leaned against the bar, he was shocked when he saw Jared walk in. The moment he
caught sight of the smile on the latter’s face, he instantly whispered ‘Good god’ inwardly. ‘Why is boss,
who had been grumpy the whole day long, coming in now with a smile…’

‘Wait.’

Sure enough, when he saw Nicole behind Jared, he quietly put down the cup in his hand as he
minimized his sense of existence.

Nicole walked to the place she and Jared usually sat and suddenly realized that he had indeed changed
many of her habits. She actually did not feel any discomfort sitting before such a bright yet fragile
window.

Jared leaned onto the table as he looked at her. Under the gentle light, one could feel the allure and
warmth in his eyes.

“Order something?” Nicole looked at him as she leaned slightly backward. Her long, slightly curled hair
flowed down, looking almost picturesque. She then looked at Jared’s handsome face as she opened her
lips slightly



“Bourbon Santos.”

‘What?’

When Klaus, who had been playing dead by the side, heard the name of that coffee, his eyes widened
as he looked at Nicole and then at Jared.

When Jared heard the coffee’s name, a glint appeared in his eyes. Yet his expression did not change as
he said with some regret. “Brazilian coffee single blend quality is not too great. You’ll have to wait, is it
okay?”

Nicole looked at him, yet there was no disappointment in her eyes. She looked at his face as a beautiful
smile appeared on hers. Her eyes seemed to be filled with some kind of faint emotions.

‘A wait is indeed required.’

The two looked at each other with tacit understanding as if some sort of affection was flowing in the air.

Just at this moment, a low cry of pain rang out from behind them.

When Nicole heard the sound, she immediately turned over. It was a young student clutching his chest in
pain as he fell from his chain and fainted as he lay on the ground.

Seeing him like this, his companions immediately leaped to the side in fear. The circle of students around
him also hurriedly dodged to the side. Seeing the person like this, they were worried about getting into
trouble and did not dare to go over.

When Jared saw this, he frowned a little.

Just as he was about to do something, he saw Nicole standing up and walking toward the student. She
quickly came to his side and furrowed her brows as she looked at his pale face.



Nicole looked at his classmate to the side and raised her jaw a little. “Help me raise his neck.”

The boy hesitated and did not dare to get close. Just as Nicole was about to say something else, Jared’s
clear voice rang out. “Let me.”

Seeing that he stretched his hand out without hesitation and held the boy’s neck in his hand, pushing him
slightly higher than his heart, a look of appreciation appeared in Nicole’s eyes. He could always
understand what she was thinking in an instant. She did not delay and instead pulled out a leather pouch
from her bag and pulled out a thin silver needle.

The girls around her saw this and covered their mouths in fear.

‘Oh my god, what is this woman up to?’ ‘Does she want to kill someone?’
