"Yep, sure," Nicole responded and went upstairs."Is Nolan okay?" Gloria still did not feel quite at ease.Daniel reassured her. "Don't worry. Nicole will take care of it."They obviously could see Nolan was upset. However, Nicole said he was fine, and they trusted Nicole.Gloria looked in the direction of the room upstairs and said, "Fine, then let's discuss it tomorrow morning.""It's getting late. We should rest.""Yes."The two stood up and walked toward their room.In the dead of the night, Nicole and Jared returned to their room after making sure the kids were asleep.Finally having the chance to discuss Nolan's issue, Nicole asked Jared helplessly, "Are you really going to be so harsh on the child?"Jared said seriously, "I'm fine with everything else, except for this."Jared could let go of anything Nolan did, but matchmaking his wife with another person was a matter he could never let someone off the hook, even if it's his son."Woah, you really are enemies." Nicol
Jared set Nicole down at the sink and smirked. "If you're not tired, I don't mind continuing—""In your dreams!" Nicole interrupted, stuffing a toothbrush in Jared's mouth. "Go brush your teeth and stop talking."Jared let out a low chuckle affectionately.Nicole shot him a warning glare, signaling that her patience was wearing thin if he kept laughing at her.Jared gently ran his fingers through Nicole's hair. "Alright, I'll brush."After a peaceful morning routine, Jared pulled Nicole and stole a kiss from her when she wanted to change her clothes in the wardrobe. He then walked into the wardrobe before her, leaving her standing alone with flushed cheeks.'What's going on? How did we suddenly just do the deed? I was indeed gradually getting used to him and our identity as husband and wife. But are we just going to resume our true husband-and-wife identities?' Nicole thought.'The situation feels so surreal. Clearly, I had not regained my memories. So did I fall in love with Ja
"Oh. Thank you so much, Mrs. Riddle." Honestly, Tia was quite worried about Mrs. Wallace Sr.'s condition, but she had to send the kids to kindergarten."No worries. Send the kids to kindergarten first," Gloria said, preparing to visit Mrs. Wallace Sr.Daniel responded, "I'll get the doctors over. After all, she's old. It's better to be safe than sorry.""That's a good idea." Nicole nodded, feeling it was more prudent to seek professional help."I'll leave Mrs. Wallace Sr. in your hands. I'll take the kids to kindergarten first," Tia informed and left with the kids as time was running out."I'll send you guys off," Stanley said and followed them.Tia was stunned, but she remained silent and followed him.Watching their figures fade into the distance, Nicole raised her eyebrow, wondering about their situation."You should stay back and check how Mrs. Wallace Sr. is doing. As for the company matters, I'll talk to Sean," Jared informed. He knew Nicole would be anxious about Mrs. Wa
Nicole and Gloria arrived in the front yard of the living room. Nicole looked at the time and said, "Mom, it's still early, so I'm going to the company.""Go ahead. Remember not to overwork yourself. You look pale," Gloria advised.Nicole's cheeks instantly blushed. "Got it."With that, Nicole left the house and had the driver send her to Riddle Corporation.Meanwhile, Jared stood facing the company's French window, his expression cold."Is the news accurate?" Jared asked. It had been such a long time since they started the investigation. So long that he thought there was nothing left to be found, but now there was actually a clue."Positive," Max said with a grave expression. "That year when Mrs. Johnston came back to San Joto, there was indeed a mysterious entity that followed her. We suspect that group of people was the one who harmed Mrs. Johnston. As for their identity, we're still working on finding that out.""Give this information to Zane. Get him to find a way to invest
Lulu thought that Snow's position would not possibly be lower ranking than Raine's. There were sisters, after all.Nicole frowned slightly. "It is quite weird that she's suddenly focused on her career.""I know, right? This seems off." Lulu nodded. She would believe it if there were rumors of Snow setting her sights on a young heir from a wealthy family. However, Lulu could never believe Snow was interested in positions and work at DillCorp.Nicole bit her lip lightly, wondering about the possibilities. 'What's Snow up to now? She can't possibly be interested to be the Riddle family's heir, right? Or have pigs learned to fly?'"Oh, about that. I heard that DillCorp seems to be in discussion for a major project. If they land the deal, they might even rise to become a first-tier company," Lulu said, shifting from gossip to a serious tone.Nicole raised her eyebrow. "Why are you so well aware of what's happening in DillCorp?"Lulu was simply a small gossip news hub, favoring the new
For all these years, Snow had remained single while the people she longed to marry passed her by. Moreover, the person she liked was even more dashing than he used to be. If she could rekindle their relationship, no one would dare look down on her anymore.With these thoughts, a triumphant smile spread across Snow's face. She even started to envision a brighter future. Gritting her teeth, Snow went back to her usual innocent and harmless demeanor. She pleaded softly, "I can learn."Seeing that Snow had made up her mind, Dillion hesitated but agreed, "Alright then."Dillion had no choice since his only son was not interested in the company and spent all his days hacking. Dillion needed someone reliable to help him now. Since his daughter was willing to learn, it was better than relying on outsiders.Snow nodded with delight. "Thanks, Dad!""When you're ready, come report for work. I'll arrange an assistant for you," Dillion said. After all, Snow did not have much experience in the
"I went to the restroom," Lulu answered Nicole softly. Then, she asked, "What are you still doing here? Are you waiting for Jared?""No. I bumped into Lawrence, and we're going to go for dinner." As soon as she finished her sentence, Nicole scanned her surroundings. "Is Spencer here yet?""He's not coming today." Lulu shrugged her shoulders, and a glimpse of sadness flashed in her eyes.Nicole frowned a little. 'Is Spencer occupied today? Why isn't he here to pick up Lulu?'Looking at how sad Lulu was, Nicole smiled and said, "Since you don't have a date tonight, join us for dinner!""Huh? Wouldn't I be a bother?" Lulu replied in shock.Nicole rolled her eyes at Lulu. "No way. Leo and I are just friends.""Oh, right." Lulu scratched her head as if she was the one who was overthinking it. Then, she turned to look at Lawrence. Her gaze seemed to be full of doubt.Although Nicole did not mind it, Lulu was not close to Lawrence. Therefore, she wanted to hear from him.Lawrence gla
"I'm not sure if we'll be able to bait Lawrence this time around." Max's eyes were also cold.They knew that Lawrence was the once behind everything. The worst part was that Lawrence was very cunning, so there was no clear evidence. Even if things were exposed, Lawrence would seemingly have nothing to do with it.Jared's gaze darkened. This was the exact reason why he was waiting to make a move. Perhaps they could try. If not, they would have to chase Iris out and harm the Johnston Group."Ask them to be on their guard. When the time comes, we could let go of some opportunities." If there was not enough bait, Lawrence would not fall for it."Noted," Max replied solemnly, understanding what Jared meant.Jared then flipped open the document beside him. Max retreated, leaving the room.On the other hand, at the restaurant, Nicole, Lawrence and Lulu had just taken their seats.After ordering their meals, they chatted casually. Lulu asked about what happened at Crescent Island. She h
