Chapter 2519

Author: Summer
As expected, Mr. Riddle Sr. turned to look at Nicole, "Do you have things on your mind?"

"No, I'm just too bogged down with work to think about a wedding at this point," Nicole replied as she forced a smile.

"Work is never ending. You have your brothers, Sean, and Steve to help you out," Mr. Riddle Sr. retorted.

'If work is an excuse for her to delay her wedding, then the wedding might not even happen,' Mr. Riddle Sr. retorted.

"I know, Grandpa." Nicole smiled, nodding along in fear of spoiling Mr. Riddle Sr. 's mood.

Mr. Riddle Sr. was left with mixed feelings when he saw that Nicole was being compliant, not knowing how to continue urging her to host her wedding.

"I suppose we're all grownups now," Mr. Riddle Sr. sighed in defeat.

Nicole knew that she had promised Mr. Riddle Sr. about the wedding, yet her heart was still fickle, and she was hesitant to share her perspective with anyone else.

Ellar, who had witnessed everything, blinked slowly, and looked up to Nicole with admi

    Jared slowly lowered his head, their eyes meeting one another before he leaned in closer, allowing their lips to meet. As the kiss became even more passionate, it grew sloppy.Alarmed by the sudden shift in tone, Nicole struggled, attempting to break free, but to no avail. She succumbed to Jared's arms that night.The next day, the sun shone warm and bright, and everyone gathered in the dining room for breakfast."Nicole, I heard you went to your grandpa's place last night. Is he alright?" Daniel asked."He's doing well. I paid him a visit to keep him posted about the latest plans of the company," Nicole explained."It was about NandoCorp, wasn't it? As long as your grandpa agrees to it," Daniel softly said, fully respecting Nicole's decision to reacquire NandoCorp and make it a part of Riddle Corporation once more.Nicole nodded. "Yeah, I've talked it out with him and he's fully onboard on it.""That's good to hear," Daniel agreed, warm with relief."Did he say anything else?"

    "Of course, you can! It just sort of caught us off guard.""Yeah, it's great that you're going to hold your wedding."Spencer and Samuel were grinning widely, while Stanley issued a loud and deep sigh. "I can already imagine how miserable my future days will be."'Now, I'll be the only one left that has yet to settle down. The pressure really is going to be mounting,' Stanley thought."You can relax. Just go on the blind dates Mom is going to set up for you. When you have a girlfriend, life will be much easier for you," Samuel teased.'Of course, I guess I won't have to worry about dying alone anymore the day I get married,' Stanley grumbled to himself.Then, he rolled his eyes at Samuel in disgust. "You should take care of your own business."In turn, Samuel shrugged at Stanley. "I'm fine. The next thing you ought to watch out for is being the center of our family's attention.""Shut your mouth and eat." Stanley threw a piece of bread at Samuel to shut him up, fuming and frust

    "Yes, ma'am," Alfred replied, and proceeded to walk off to do what he was told.Gloria stood up humming, apparently in a good mood. Then, she walked over to the garden to check if Mrs. Wallace Sr. was around.Meanwhile, Nicole had just arrived at another one of Riddle Corporation's branches, NandoCorp. As expected, Lulu was already there waiting for Nicole, who went on to receive the stack of applications from the former."Everything you need is here," Lulu said."I'm impressed. You're pretty quick." Nicole smiled as she went through each individual document in her hands."It's all about speed now. I heard that Harvey has made some moves and I don't want him to beat us to it." Lulu shrugged.'If anything goes wrong, NandoCorp will fall into the hands of Harvey Ellison and it would be a terrible loss for Riddle Corporation,' Lulu thought to herself.Nicole looked at the time, "It's almost time, let's go and submit our application."Both stood up and left the company to deliver t

    With two boxes in hand, Lulu asked, "Are we just going to visit Mr. Ellison with these?""It's more than enough. He's sick now. These will suit him better," Nicole replied, entering the Royal Creek Institute campus grounds before making a beeline for the small courtyard in the northwest corner."How did Mr. Ellison suddenly fall sick?" Lulu asked, concerned. "There's no one watching over him either. He must be feeling worse than sick. No wonder he's recovering so slowly.""So here we are, paying him a much needed visit," Nicole said, bringing Lulu into the courtyard.Then, while entering the living room, Nicole called out, "Mr. Ellison!?""Oh my, is this Nicole here?" Mr. Ellison asked, recognizing Nicole through her voice.He then greeted, "Come on in."Taking Lulu into the room, Nicole asked, "How are you feeling these days?""The same old. Don't you worry about me. I'm just relapsing. I'll be fine after some time," Mr. Ellison explained, putting on a smile."Mr. Ellison, th

    Harvey leaned against his chair, pondering the possibility of his grandfather possessing an ace in his deck. After all, his grandfather had managed to survive for all these years.'Hmm, what a good plan you had in mind, Nicole. Too bad I'm not giving you the chance to use it,' he thought.As the sun set on the hills, the crowd hurried home from work. Nicole's phone rang right as she and Lulu had sauntered out of the office.Seeing that it was Daniel, Nicole got taken aback: her dad would rarely call at this hour."Yes, Dad?" Nicole asked after answering the call. "What's up?""Nicole, could you come to the Riddle family manor?" Daniel pleaded with hesitation."Is Grandpa alright?" Nicole asked, hearing Daniel's tone.Sighing, Daniel replied, "It's not your grandfather. You should just come over first.""Alright," Nicole agreed and hung up.She then looked at Lulu and informed, "You go ahead and wait for Spencer. I'm heading to the Riddle family manor.""Sure thing. Should I t

    "Nicole, why do you keep on causing me trouble?" Chloe bawled loudly before Mr. Riddle Sr. could answer Nicole."When did I cause you trouble?" Nicole frowned.Thinking back on Jared's words, she could understand Chloe's attitude towards her, but how as to how she had repeatedly caused Chloe trouble, she did not know."Oh, so you're playing pretend now?" Chloe gritted her teeth. "Because of you, my leg turned out like this. And now, you're severing my only source of income? Without money for treatment, I'll be a cripple forever."As Chloe lashed out, her emotions grew more intense, and she became even louder. She was leaning forward in her wheelchair, almost to the point of falling over."Come on, take it easy. We're here to let Grandpa do us justice," Miley softly comforted her."How could I not get anxious?!" Chloe choked. "I've waited all these years, and yet my leg is still not treated. I'm trying my best to maintain them while waiting for treatment. But now, I can't even aff

    "W-Why? No. Not at all," Damien reluctantly denied upon catching a glimpse of Nicole's threatening gaze.With that out of the way, Mr. Riddle Sr stated, "If that's the case, I'll have Alfred deliver Chloe's treatment fee to you every month in the future."After a slight pause, he added, "If there's nothing else, you may all leave."With a weary look on his face, Mr. Riddle Sr. waved his hands, gesturing for the crowd to leave, whereupon the house butler took charge and directed them out. "Mr. Riddle Sr. is tired and needs some rest. Please go home, everyone."Damien shot Nicole one last glare before leaving, while Miley pushed Chloe's wheelchair out the door from behind him."Dad, let's go too," Nicole indicated.She knew Mr. Riddle Sr. was mentally exhausted now, and above anything, she wanted to give him some space."Yeah, come on." Daniel sighed."Get some rest, Grandpa. I'll settle it," Nicole said whilst giving him a meaningful glance.Mr. Riddle Sr. looked at Nicole, per

    Damien darted a glance at Miley and Chloe, and in an icy tone of voice, he said, "This is father's decision."After all, if Mr. Riddle Sr. really wanted to help them, Nicole would have no choice but to follow the old man's wishes.Hearing those words uttered made Miley's face blanch. "What about our future? I don't want to end up in such a miserable situation as Dillion."If Mr. Riddle Sr. refused to help them, their family would really have no way out.Enraged, Damien glared at Miley and said, "Hold your tongue, woman! I'm not as stupid as he is!""My apologies." Miley timidly backed down.Then, Chloe frowned and asked Damien, "Dad, what are your plans?""Give me a damn minute," Damien said in frustration. "Now of all times, Everett is unreachable.""I'm afraid he can't expose himself to the public eye right now. He'll contact you when it's convenient and safe to do so," Chloe gritted her teeth. "I guess we truly are on our own right now.""We're on our own?" Damien stared Ch

    "Let's go, it's time to head down. The ceremony will start soon."The group laughed and talked as they left the bridal suite. Jared and his friends, Spencer and Preston, were also guided out by everyone.Now, only the family of four remained in the bridal suite, getting ready for their big entrance."Mommy, it's almost time. Let's get ready," Nolan said, pulling on Nicole's hand.Nicole gently patted Nolan and Lana's cheeks, whispering, "Okay."As she made to stand, Jared extended his hand toward her. Lifting her gaze, she caught Jared in a moment of elegance, his charm unmistakable. A smile bloomed on her face as she placed her hand in his.With a gentle tug, Jared drew her up, his touch tender against her palm.In a swift move, he pulled Nicole into his arms, his other hand circling her waist to pull her close.As Jared looked at Nicole, admiration shimmered in his eyes.

    Nicole laughed off the debate between Lulu and June, saying, "Both are lovely. I'm happy with either."Both sets of jewelry were beautiful, and she felt that either would do."Exactly. Nicole will shine in anything," Cindy said, picking a set. "Let's go with this one."Lulu gave June a victorious look. "Told you this was the one."Cindy then suggested, "Why not wear this for the ceremony and switch for the reception? That way, we use both.""Great idea," June agreed, smiling at Cindy's suggestion.Nicole smiled. "Sounds perfect."With everyone agreeing, the stylist went ahead with preparing Nicole.Lulu watched Nicole, amazed by how calm she seemed. "Aren't you a bit nervous?" she asked. Lulu remembered her own wedding jitters.Nicole bit her lip, a hint of nerves showing. "I'm more excited than anything," she admitted.She had been looking forward to this day, ready to face the future with Jared with hope and joy."Just finished," the stylist announced, stepping back to adm

    "Do you think I don't want to meet someone? I just haven't found the right person," Gary said somewhat resignedly. He had long regarded Nicole as just a friend."Why don't we just try the dates our families set up?" Ryder suggested, calm and collected. He figured since finding someone on his own wasn't working, maybe arranged dates could help. In their circles, it seemed like good matches were meant to be."Arranged dates don't sound great. You hardly know the person. Are we really okay with deciding to spend our lives together like that?" Preston wasn't too keen on the idea."Emery's doing pretty well with it, you know," Ryder said confidently. "I trust our families. They wouldn't set us up with someone terrible. They've probably made sure we'd be a good match."Gary thought it over. "You might be right. Our families aren't just trying to make deals; they want us to be happy."As Gary and Ryder seemed more into the idea, Preston was still unsure. "You guys are serious?""Why not

    Jared held Nicole close and looked at her. "After we get married, we'll move to the estate," he said.Their future home would be just theirs.He thought it was good for Nicole to spend more time with her family since she hadn't been with them for five years. But they knew they would move to the estate later."Okay," Nicole said, nodding. She was happy Jared made the estate close to her family, so she was okay with moving.Jared gently touched her hair and kissed her...****Time flew, and soon it was Nicole and Jared's wedding day.From the morning, San Joto was alive with excitement. Everyone was talking about Jared and Nicole's wedding.Politicians, business leaders, close friends, and business partners all came to wish the couple well.The Riddles were busy welcoming the guests, making everything look amazing."Patricia, hurry up, Charlie's here," Ellar called out as he spotted Charlie. He quickly got Patricia to come and greet him. Max, hearing the fuss, came over too.C

    "You really need to rest. You shouldn't work for the next few days. Stay home and rest. A bride has to look her best," Gloria said, looking at Nicole and making the decision for her."Bride!" Nicole was surprised because she hadn't talked about any wedding yet."Yes, now that everything is settled, it's time for your wedding with Jared," Gloria said, deciding firmly. She used to think it was best for the kids to decide for themselves, but after several delays, she felt waiting longer made no sense. The wedding should happen soon."I was thinking that too," Jared said. They had planned the wedding after solving the Everett problem, but then they found out Lawrence had hurt Nicole in the past, causing more delays. Now, with everything sorted out, they saw no reason to wait. The wedding was the next big step.Nicole looked at Jared and, with a smile, agreed, "Okay." Their wedding had been waiting for five years; it was time, with no need to wait any longer."That's so cool, I'm the f

    Patricia felt a mix of reluctance and happiness as she prepared to part ways with Charlie.Jared glanced at Charlie and said, "It's about time for us to board." He tenderly held Nicole's hand and led her toward the boarding gate."I need to go through the boarding procedures too," Patricia said, biting her lip. "You must find happiness as well.""I will," Charlie assured her with a gentle smile, giving her a reassuring pat on the shoulder. "You've grown up, too. You don't need to cling to me anymore. I believe Ellar will take great care of you."Patricia nodded, then, leaning closer to Charlie, she whispered, 'When Mr. Johnston and Ms. Riddle get married, make sure you bring my future sister-in-law back with you.' Caught off guard, Charlie playfully scolded her, "You little rascal."Doretta, standing not too far away, overheard Patricia's whispered words. Her cheeks turned even redder."Let's go," Patricia announced, then turned to Doretta, adding, "We'll meet again.""Goodbye,

    Lying in bed with Nicole cradled in his arms, Jared whispered gently, "Sleep for a bit.""Mhm." Finally feeling at peace, Nicole smiled slightly, and she quickly fell asleep.As Jared listened to her soft breathing, his eyes softened with affection, and he too closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep.The next morning, as the group got ready to head back to San Joto, Zane and Doretta came to say goodbye."I still have things to finish here, but I promise to be at your wedding," Zane said with a big smile."And I'll be there to wish you well, Nicole," Doretta added.Saying goodbye is always hard, but everyone knew they had their own journeys to continue."Great, we'll see you in San Joto," Nicole said with a bright smile."It's time to go," Zane said, knowing they couldn't wait any longer without risking missing their plane."I've got the paperwork," Patricia said, ready to help with the travel documents for Jared and Nicole. Then, looking at Charlie, she asked, "Need help with

    Nicole was quiet, thinking about everything. 'If I hadn't remembered everything, maybe Lawrence and I could have stayed friends. But after finding out about the airport, it's impossible...'Not only had she regained her memory, but she had also learned about the airport incident. Lawrence had gone to great lengths to prevent her from returning to San Joto."Thanks for saving me before, but you also hurt me. We're even now," Nicole said calmly, looking at Lawrence like he was someone she didn't know anymore.Jared squeezed Nicole's hand gently. "Let's go."They decided to leave the rest to Zane and head back."Wait." Lawrence's voice stopped Nicole. He sounded almost like he was begging. "Please, don't tell Nolan about this."Nicole paused, then said, "I won't tell him. Not for you, but because I don't want Nolan to see how bad people can be."With that, Nicole walked away with Jared.Lawrence sat down, watching her leave, with mixed feelings."Let's go too," Patricia said to C

    "Your robots don't work anymore," a voice said, sounding very pleased. Then, a person came out from behind the crowd, looking pretty proud of himself."Carl!" Nicole was shocked to see him. 'It's Carl!'"It's been a while." Carl smiled and waved at Nicole.Carl had come as soon as Zane told him about the problem. He couldn't just do nothing when Nicole needed help.He didn't expect them to act so soon, which is why he was a little late. But he was still in time to help. Carl was surprised by Lawrence's robots at first, but luckily, the weapons he brought, which he had been working on for years, stopped the robots. This was a big help to everyone."We really need to thank Carl; we would have been in big trouble without him," Zane said, feeling relieved.Zane had asked Carl for help, hoping it would make them more likely to win, but Carl ended up being very important."Thank you," Nicole said with a warm smile. It was nice to see an old friend again."No need to thank me. I'm jus
