Steve looked at Nicole in embarrassment."I'm not considerate enough to bring those people here. The only person I'll ever bring home is her..."Steve's eyes look far away with a little hint of resentment. Stanley stood at the side, noticed Nicole's doubts, and talked in a low voice, "In case you didn't know, Sally is Steve's ex-girlfriend. Three years ago, she suddenly had to go abroad to further her studies. Steve got mad and broke up with her... I didn't expect that he would invite her upon her return..."Stanley could not help but burst into fits of laughter as he finished talking. Steve gave Stanley a hard look, "Shut up. Don't gloat so much!"Nicole glanced at Steve's embarrassment and could not help but add fuel to the fire, "It seems that you're also lovesick. Three years have gone by and you still haven't forgotten about her. You even brought her here to meet our parents as soon as she returned home..."Steve was terribly embarrassed, but he had no heart to resent his on
As soon as the words came out, Sean's face turned red with embarrassment. Jane was also a little embarrassed by the question."Not really...Someone sent me flowers in the office, but...I already have someone I like," Jane could not help sneaking a look at Sean and the answer was already obvious.Everyone was crystal clear about this except for Sean who was confused. Sean's face turned gloomy after hearing it.Nicole sighed, 'It's so hard to make someone as dense and stubborn as Sean enter a relationship.' Nicole could not help but assist Jane on this matter, "Is the person you like around 185cm tall and likes to drink caramel coffee with milk?"As soon as these words came out, both Jane and Sean were stunned for a moment. Jane had not expected Nicole to be able to understand her hints at such a young age. Jane had a crush on her superior for the longest time ever and when someone gifted her flowers at the office, it got rid of her hopes of ever getting close to him.On the other h
'Why could Lulu let June have it yet I can't?'"I'd obviously be stingy with you! These are prepared for the girls, not for you!"After he finished saying, Spencer replenished the pastries and brought them over to Lulu directly. Lulu was embarrassed but her heart was inexplicably touched by the warm gesture, having never seen Spencer angry before, and it was over her favorite pastry at that.'This feels like a dream,' Lulu thought to herself.Samuel frowned, "Fine, I won't eat it. Why do you have to get so mad over this?"Samuel rolled his eyes and saw the barbecue Stanley and Tia who were in charge of was almost ready."Let's go over to the barbeque," Samuel said to June."Alright," said June who looked happy. As long as it was with Samuel, anything they did would make her feel contented. Spencer, on the other hand, saw the both of them leave and realized that he had gone a little overboard. Lulu turned to look at him and said, "Thank you for preparing those for me albeit a bit
Nicole could not help being shy, "My brothers had brought back their female friends over to express their thanks and to let our mother do some matchmaking. Why are you here?"Both Nicole and Jared are eventually becoming husband and wife, so there was no need for them to meet up for this occasion."Oh, so you are aware that you're going to be wed soon...," said Jared before he walked toward Gloria and Daniel."Hi, Mr. & Mrs. Riddle."Gloria was happily chatting with Sally before she turned around to see Jared. Gloria beamed with joy, "Oh my, Jared is here! Come and have a seat.""Thank you, Mrs. Riddle," Jared smiled. Nicole trailed along behind Jared and sat down on the opposite side of her mother.This was the very first time Sally had seen Jared, she was a little taken aback, "This is..."Gloria immediately introduced, "This is Nicole's fiancé, Jared."Sally was taken aback, and recalled, "I think I've heard this name before, the president of the Johnston Group, right?" Stev
"You're right. I don't have to worry much about Spencer and Samuel since they're still so young. I'm only worried for both Sean and Steve. One of them is too blind to notice what's right in front of him and the other still dares to be self-conflicted even when she had already returned. Merely looking at their predicament made me anxious. Your assistance was a nice touch," Gloria noticed Nicole's intentions and felt relieved."Only you truly understand how I felt."Nicole smiled brightly, Jared noticed how worried she was for her brothers and was a little jealous, "You care so much about others' affairs, but when will you care as much about our affairs?"Nicole was suddenly embarrassed, "Didn't I already make a promise..."Jared raised his eyebrows, "You promised, but when will you start making it happen?"Nicole noticed Jared's eagerness to take their relationship to the next level. Gloria overheard their conversation and her eyes lit up, "I, too, think you should start making the
"What?" Samuel was shocked, "When?"Spencer was surprised too, "Why? Has the filming ended?"Jared raised his brows as he looked at the brothers delightedly, "I invested in this drama, and the production ended early.""What?!" Samuel and Spencer did not know that Jared would do such a thing just to marry Nicole as soon as he can!"Isn't this... too much?" Samuel said, annoyed. "Nicole likes it. How could you decide by yourself?""He's right! Did you really do it just for the marriage?" Spencer looked upset as well.Gloria was a little confused, "What's going on, Nicole?"Nicole did not want to hide it anymore, "The production crew did not follow the script, so I refused to continue filming with them."The two brothers were stunned when they heard what Nicole had said, "You rejected them?"Spencer found it unbelievable, "Did something happen, Nicole? Did someone bully you?"Samuel frowned, "Is it because of some nasty unspoken rules?"Gloria immediately glared at him, "Stop y
Stanley was surprised, "Why?"He was a tad bit late, so he had no idea why Samuel said that.Daniel frowned as he looked at Samuel, "Your friend is waiting for you. Why don't you keep her company?"Samuel turned and saw that June had been waiting for him. He started to feel embarrassed and said, "Okay."Spencer looked at Lulu as well, who seemed to be waiting for him too.The pair then walked over with their heads hanging low.Stanley was amused by the way they left and left himself.Jared then started talking to Gloria and Daniel about tomorrow's agenda.Nicole watched as they decided on things together and felt that she had no say in anything!But still, she felt a sense of bliss.After knowing that she will be living next door after getting married, she did not feel like she was leaving her family anymore. Instead, she felt comforted.'Whatever. I won't be leaving my family anyway. How is getting married going to change anything?'So, she left everything in Jared and Glo
"I'll ask my driver to pick me up later... but the traffic is probably going to be bad at this hour," Lulu looked at her watch and said innocently.Spencer heard it and immediately said, "The traffic is definitely going to be terrible. I should drive you home instead."He put down his cup while speaking as he got ready to send her back."What? It doesn't sound like a good idea ..." Lulu was a little shy because she would be spending time with Spencer alone for the first time.Suddenly, Nicole appeared out of nowhere, "Why not? Even June has somebody to drive her home. You've got to get home safely too. Spencer, make sure to take good care of Lulu.""Nicole..." Lulu knew Nicole was trying to help her, but she was way too shy."Come on, get going now," Nicole lifted her brows and stopped her from speaking.Then, Lulu left with Spencer without having the opportunity to express her gratitude for Nicole.Jared watched them leave and lifted his brows, "You have good eyes. They actual
