Chapter 148

Nicole did not like too much attention to herself, but somehow, she always got it.

Lulu took the box, hesitating whether to return it. But when she saw Nicole’s calm face, she calmly shoved the things into Nicole’s arms. “Here you go. It is from him.”

Nicole did not even look at it, and she shoved it back into Lulu’s school bag. “Since he gave it to you, it is yours, then.”

There was no more grudge between them since she had accepted the thing. That was why she did not drive Cain away when he handed the thing over. Nicole gently patted Lulu on the head and said, “Let’s get something to eat.”

The school gate was near the café. Just when passing by the café, Nicole casually glimpsed inside, not expecting to see anything. Yet she saw Jared lazily leaning against the window. Sitting across from him was a beautiful woman with red lips and wavy hair. The two seemed to be chatting about something, and then the woman stood up, seemingly agitated, and wanted to walk over to Jared.

Nicole stopped looking at this point and continued to walk forward as she was not interested in peeking into the private affair of others.

Lulu, walking next to Nicole, shivered all of a sudden. She then looked up at the sky in puzzlement. It was early fall, and the weather was not too cold. Yet Lulu was shivering as if in the winter, the air temperature continuing to plummet.
