Chapter 769

'She is just a little girl; why is such an excellent man willing to be with her?' While Joyce was in a daze, Jared's eyes landed on her. He had just glanced at her, but Joyce's heart pounded uncontrollably. Her heart skipped a beat when she saw the frosty look in his eyes. 'Why did he look at me like that?' Joyce was too frightened to utter a sound. Then Jared said in an icy voice, "This is my café. Anyone who offends my girlfriend is not welcome here. You are not welcome here next time." His knifelike words pierced into her heart. Joyce felt a chill running up her spine, and she could not find a word to respond. Jared did not look at Martin at all as she brought Nicole straight to where they used to sit. Before leaving, she politely nodded at Martin. Only then did she go without looking back again. After all, they were not that close to each other. All Martin wanted was to meet Nicole, not expecting that she would follow Jared away after he had just seen her for a few seconds.
