Chapter 121
“Mr. Johnston, you are quite eloquent,” said Harvey courteously.
Although Jared had only said a few words, it was enough to show he took Nicole’s side firmly.
Harvey let out a low laugh. Jared, on the other hand, raised his eyebrows without saying anything. He
was not surprised that Harvey knew him.
The rest of Snow’s friends were stunned. They were too shocked to react when they heard the way
Harvey had addressed Jared.
After all, there were very few families in Northon that would deserve Harvey’s politeness.
Seeing that even Harvey had to act politely toward Jared, Snow pursed her lips and said, “Nicole, we’ll
let go of this this since Mr. Johnston is here. I’m not sure how you became friends with these people, but
I hope you return on the right path and stop fooling around like this.”

your opinion about my friends. Remember to ask your friend to apologize to Austin.”
There was a smile in Jared’s eyes when he heard Nicole’s words.
Yvana did not expect Nicole would still refuse to let her off the hook. “Nicole, don’t go too far. Do you
really think a mere café owner can back vou? There’s no way I will say sorry to a fool
like Austin,” she snarled. “Harvey, say something, quick! I don’t want to apologize to that brainless
Austin!”
Harvey’s gaze remained somewhere between Nicole and Jared. “Yvana, don’t be stubborn,” said Harvey
without looking at Yvana.
He was asking Yvana to apologize to Austin.
Yvana’s eyes widened. She did not see this coming from Harvey’s mouth. Tears quickly welled up in her
eyes as she shot Nicole a glare. “Austin, I’m sorry!” she shouted.
Nicole frowned as she sensed no sincerity in Yvana’s apology. However, Austin was very satisfied with
the outcome. He glanced at Yvana deeply. His eyes had a glimmer at first, but it faded and eventually
went out.
“Boss, it’s getting late. Let’s go,” said Austin. His tone was soft.
Nicole looked at him and said no more. She responded, “Okay.”
Jared no longer pursued the matter. The moment he passed by Harvey, he retracted his gaze, deadpan.
Harvey’s eyes darkened as he watched the Nicole and her friends go downstairs.
Jared went out of the café with them. After leaving the premise, every one, except for Nicole who had to
returned to school since she was staying on campus, parted ways. Before Nicole left, she stopped Austin
with a low voice. “You deserve someone better.”
Austin looked at her with light flashed in his eyes. “Thank
you, Boss.”

After they all left, Nicole saw that Jared was still by her side. She looked at him, puzzled. “Why haven’t
you left?”
· Jared furrowed his brows. ‘This lady… She throws me a
despised look once Austin and his gang left.’ But seeing that it was getting dark, he couldn’t let her go
back alone.
“I’ll send you to your place.”
Nicole cast a glance at Jared, looking resigned. “No, it’s only a ten-minute walk from here to the
dormitory.”
Jared didn’t argue any further. Instead, he said flatly, “Let’s go.
Nicole frowned at Jared’s back. She remained motionless for two seconds before she followed him.
‘Never mind. He can send me back as he wished since… I don’t really hate him,’ Nicole muttered in her
mind.
