As Nicole stared into Wyatt’s sincere and enthusiastic eyes, she couldn’t help but give in. How could she not relent? She was yet to forget him, even after five years had gone by!

She was about to respond to him when a knock came on the door.

“I know you’re here, Mr. Todd. Your mother requested we pick you up.”

Nicole drew her hand back as she suddenly returned to her senses. She put on an indifferent face again.

“It’s time you left. They came to take you home.”

He stared at the empty space in the palm of his hand and his face instantly went dark.

Turning to the door, he roared, “Get lost!”

The knocks stopped coming, but the bodyguards outside seemed to have no intention of giving up.

“You are the Todd family’s heir, Mr. Todd. You have to be responsible for the entire Todd family. You’re not allowed to just leave like this.”

Wyatt paid no attention to the bodyguard’s words and simply stared at Nicole.

A deadlock between Wyatt and the bodyguards began. No one wanted to relent.

Nicole no longer wanted to spend time waiting however. She recalled her mother had told her she would be coming over to see her. Her mother would be frightened if she saw the current situation.

“It’s best you leave now. My mother would be here soon. It wouldn’t be good for her to see this situation. She has a heart problem,” she urged Wyatt.
