Chapter 1424:

? ? ? ? ?

Just as Nicole was about to get up and change seats, a young woman took the one next to her.

The girl gestured to the man carrying bags behind her and said, "Honey, sit here."

Feeling trapped, Nicole decided not to move anywhere else.

The girl's boyfriend sat next to her and cheerfully greeted Nicole and Jarrod: "Hello!" The young woman smiled brightly at Nicole.

Unable to ignore the young woman's friendly lover, Nicole nodded back, "Hello."

"Miss, you are incredibly beautiful. You must be a celebrity," the girl comments, her eyes full of curiosity.

Nicole felt a little embarrassed. She hid her scars under her bucket hat and mask. Only her expressive eyes were visible.

Despite her dissimulation, Nicole's eyes were captivating, giving her the aura of a celebrity who has arrived discreetly to get married.

“No, I’m just another ordinary person,” Nicole replied modestly.

"You look anything but ordinary. And your husband is extraordinarily handsome. I can't remember the last time I saw a man that handsome," the girl commented enthusiastically.

This compliment managed to slightly melt Jarrod's typically icy attitude. He then took the initiative to say, "Hello." He did so not out of flattery, but rather because of the endearing way she referred to him as Nicole's husband.

The girl blushed deeply, visibly embarrassed by the handsome Jarrod.

The girl's boyfriend immediately felt a flash of jealousy. "Could you turn it down a bit? You're almost drooling," he joked, his voice free of disapproval.

Regaining her composure, the girl playfully scolded, “You know I always blush when I see a handsome man.”

The girl then turned to Nicole with a friendly smile. “Miss, please don't take this the wrong way. I just found your husband incredibly handsome. That’s all.”

Her boyfriend added: "Miss, I apologize on her behalf. She has always been fascinated by handsome men on TV. It's rare that she meets one in person, so she got a little excited."

"It's okay. I'm not offended. And for the record, he's not my husband yet," Nicole clarifies.

Nicole was not affected by the exchange of words. Honestly, she was indifferent to the fact that others admired Jarrod.

However, his comment dampened the mood slightly. Everyone was waiting for the marriage certificate. The fact that Jarrod was currently her husband seemed trivial, since they were about to get married.

Nicole's timely clarification seemed a bit awkward.

Jarrod's face turned stern, but he chose not to offer unnecessary explanations.

The girl giggled and said, “Miss, you are something. Just wait, you are not married, he is not your husband yet. You should follow his example. You are absolutely right.”

Her boyfriend, apparently concerned, chimed in: “Learn what? You need help getting your bearings, and yet you still want to be like her? Hmph.”

"Mind your own business. I'll learn."
