Chapter 1543

And yet, Jared refused to let go of Nicole.

Meanwhile, Spencer and Samuel attempted to chase after her, but Sean stood in the way, blocking them. "Chill. Let her go. She must be tired. Let her go and get some rest."

There were one too many guests at the banquet, and as of now, Jared was the only one who could protect Nicole from being harassed. Therefore, Sean had allowed her go with him. There were only a few of them who were hesitant to let them go, and because of this, they could only agree.

"The air outside is certainly better and I really hate socializing." Nicole said, as she felt suffocated when she was at the banquet earlier.

"So, I've done my part and helped you in every way I could." Jared flashed her a smile as he drove.
