Chapter 217

“Thank you for telling me so much.” Jared seemed to wake up from a dream after hearing what Nicole

said, his smile on his face saying that he felt appreciated, and his expression looked much warmer

now.

The light in the cold ice had finally been lit up. He looked at Nicole’s beautiful face, and his fingers felt

like wanting to touch her involuntarily. He did, and he gently stroked her cheek with his fingers with a

dream-like expression on his face. “Thank you, Nicole,” he said.

Nicole did not refuse his touch. She calmly raised her hand to take his somewhat cold hand in hers. “In

reciprocal, I will tell you something about me,” she said. “Before returning to the

Riddle family, my adoptive parents cared little about me. I grew up in the company of my grandma. We

were poor, and she sold junk scavenged from the garbage to make a living and pay for my tuition fees.

Because the clothes I wore always did not fit me, I was laughed at and looked down upon, and

because I was skinny, I was always bullied by those who were younger than me.”

Nicole looked at Jared. She was talking about her unpleasant memories, but the look on her face was

nonchalant as if it did not affect her at all. She continued. “But I still grew up well. Those people are

now far away from my life, and my childhood may follow me all my life, but I will never cocoon myself

and live in those painful memories because of those people and things that are not worth it.” There was

a hint of sadness flashed in her eyes, as if she had thought of something.

Jared looked at her with some kind of unspeakable emotion in his eyes. Her composure and calmness

in her soul were the things that attracted him. He let out a gentle smile with spirit in his eyes as if they

were stars that would never fall. “I feel you,” he said, looking at her beautiful face and feeling as if

something had lit him up inside.

Just then, Zeke, who was checking the electronic instruments earlier, had come back with enthusiasm.

“Lu— Nicole, guess what I just saw!” Nicole forbade him from calling her Lucifer in front of others. But

he was too excited and almost made that slip of the tongue.

Nicole and Jared looked at Zeke. They did not look embarrassed. Just that there was a not-too happy

look in Jared’s eyes. He wondered if Zeke had deliberately picked this time to come back

Zeke looked at Jared, whose hand was on Nicole’s face, and then at Nicole, whose hand was holding

to Jared’s. He was kind of struck dumb for a second. “You guys…”

Nicole pulled back her hand and walked toward Zeke with a straight face. “What’s wrong?”

Zeke’s excitement had subsided, but he still said as it was, “I saw a ]W3000.” The JW 3000 was the

model number of the world’s most advanced computer. Only thirty units had been made, and almost all

of them were used by weapons research laboratories in various countries. He did not expect to see one

on Jared’s plane,

Nicole could not help but be surprised at hearing that. There was an imperceptible excitement in her

eyes, but she pretended to be calm. “Show me where it is.”
