"Daddy, Mommy, remember to pick us up after school." Lana waved to them before walking in with Nona."Wow, both of your parents came to drop you off. You're so lucky! Only my mom came with me," Nona said in jealousy and admiration.Lana puffed up her chest smugly and responded, "Yeah, they're coming to pick us up later too!"Seeing this, Nicole was left feeling really amused by Lana's behavior. 'So this is how she is when she gets what she wants. She just wants to rub it in everyone's face. She's just a little kid, after all.'"Let's go," Jared said.And after they had dropped the kids off, they left the place for work.When they arrived at the headquarters of the Riddle Corporation, Nicole strode into her office and the secretary left after handing Nicole a file.Her gaze darkened and she frowned when she looked at the documents.As expected, Mr. Walker was restless for a reason. He had secretly been in contact with Damien, but Nicole should have thought about it sooner, nonet

"Nicole, I'd like to invite you, Lana, and Nolan out for dinner today. Just take it as a celebration, for them having found a preschool that they like." Lawrence looked at Jared before asking Nicole out.Feeling challenged, Jared's gaze became even frostier.His tone was menacing as he said, "It's a father's responsibility to find a school that's the best for them. It's nothing worth celebrating.""Don't stress it, Mr. Johnston. While you were not present in their lives, Nicole and I have been treating them well too," Lawrence calmly said, though every word uttered was extremely provocative.Jared's expression darkened. Lawrence had hit the nail on the head, for this was indeed Jared's regret. Nevertheless, it was still not Lawrence's place to say something like that."Right. Since you're their godfather, it's only reasonable for you to look after them a little," Jared retorted.At the end of the day, Lawrence was just their godfather. He had no blood relations with either of the

"Okay." Nolan nodded affirmatively."We're leaving." Nicole smiled, touched by Nolan's behavior.After the family had left, Lawrence's gaze turned cold, and his expression darkened."Mr. Royce, even though Miss Nicole has not regained any of her memories, she seems to have accepted her family very quickly," Ian lamented after coming over.Perhaps blood ties and family relationships were so strong and solid that none of the predicaments could affect them for long.Lawrence glared at Ian, and that was when the latter quickly realized that he had misspoken. Then, he quickly lowered his head.Lawrence turned and got into the car with a grimace. Though the Riddle family had bonded with Nicole, and there was nothing he could do to stop that, he would never allow Jared to take Nicole away.Back in the car, the atmosphere was nothing short of strange. Lana was hugging Jared tightly as she rambled to him about the happy things that happened to her in school, especially about Nona, whom s

Nicole could not help but smile when she saw how well everyone was treating Nolan and Lana. She suddenly felt a sense of familiarity. It felt as if she was once treated the same way as well; spoiled by everyone in her family.Nicole froze when that thought flitted in her head. Then, she tried her very best to recall the incident but to no avail. Instead, the more she thought about it, her headache worsened and her face blanched."Stop thinking. Just take things as they come," Jared said softly.He seemed to have noticed that Nicole was struggling with something, so he held her soft hand in an attempt to comfort her.His gentle voice brought her thoughts to a halt, and once she redirected her focus back to the present, her headache gradually began to taper off. The warmth from Jared's palm was giving her a sense of security as well.However, Jared's remark had prompted everyone to notice the odd look on Nicole's face. "What's wrong with Nicole?""I suddenly got a headache, but I'm

Jared's lips curled up into a warm smile. "Don't apologize. You're doing great already. Didn't you say you were going to follow your heart? It seems that your heart is telling you to come to me."Though he was frustrated that someone else was pursuing Nicole, Nicole's attitude toward Lawrence did not drive him into sorrow or madness. She had made the right choice by following her heart, and the results were very satisfactory to Jared.They might not be as fervent in their romance as they were before, but Jared was more than happy to give her space and time. He was willing to wait for her, and he believed that she would not disappoint him.At that moment, Nicole was pulled back into reality and realized that she was hugging Jared. Her face immediately flushed as she pushed him away, creating a distance between them.She could not believe that she had actually let her guard down and hugged Jared moments ago. 'It's so embarrassing. I feel like I'm going to die.'Jared flashed her a d

"Come here, Lana." Jared waved to Lana, who teetered toward him obediently."Hey, Daddy."Holding her up, Jared gently asked, "Why did you come here with your brother?""Oh, we're here to get you and Mommy down to have dinner."Their grandmother had initially gotten the servants to call Jared and Nicole, but as Lana and Nolan were worried about Nicole, they had volunteered to go upstairs."Well, then let's go down for dinner, shall we?" Jared smiled."Of course." Lana wrapped her arms around his neck. "Let's eat!"Jared shot a glance at Nicole before walking out of the room with Lana, leaving Nicole behind with questions in her head. 'Did they just leave it at that?!'It was Lana's first time giving up before getting the answer she needed. This would not have happened in the past.'How did Jared do that? Why is Lana so obedient when he's around?!' Nicole asked herself.Nicole suddenly felt that Lana was playing favorites. Back then, she always had a hard time answering Lana's

"Sure," Nicole responded.She did not further the conversation either, as she thought Nolan had understood her.When they got downstairs, everyone in the family had already sat down and was waiting for Nicole. Everyone was concerned about her, so they were relieved when they saw that she was looking better than before."Nicole, if work is getting too overwhelming for you, just tell Sean and Steve. They can share the workload with you," Gloria reminded her.She had undergone way too many hardships before she finally got Nicole back. All she wanted now was for Nicole to have peace and happiness. She did not really care much about anything else, as nothing was close to being as important as Nicole."Don't worry, mom. I'm fine," Nicole smiled as she comforted Gloria."Nicole's doing very well, and we'll look after her," Sean and Steve promised."Okay, pay more attention to your sister," Gloria reminded them.They chatted away while they ate, and in a blink of an eye, dinner was don

Fuming with anger, Mr. Walker stormed into Nicole's office and exclaimed, "Although you are the CEO, you should still act reasonably. How can you dismiss an employee without any solid reasons? Are you trying to eliminate dissenters?"In response to Mr. Walker's act of questioning her, a frosty glint flitted in Nicole's eyes as her voice became icy. "Are you implying that he's the dissenter? Or are you the dissenter?""What?! I-" he asked, not expecting to face such an accusation.In contrast, Nicole was not panicking; she had even turned the tables on him.'Why is this happening? In such a situation, shouldn't she try to calm others down to elude any difficulties in the future? Why did she shift the blame back to me? What am I even supposed to say now? Every reply I've got might as well be the wrong answer,' he thought.He could not admit that he had ulterior motives, and he could not say the same about the head of the Marketing department either. But by doing so, it meant that he
