They did their work respectively and it was already lunchtime before they realized it.After having lunch, the head of the Legal Department returned as Nicole and Lulu were taking a break from work."Ms. Riddle, it's been taken care of." Lester Jensen heaved a sigh of relief."Good." Nicole seemed satisfied. "Thank you so much. We'll leave the rest to Ms. Wyatt.""I'll let her know about it," Lester said, nodding.Nicole paused momentarily before saying, "That'll do too."She had initially planned for her secretary to convey the message but having Lester do it would be fine too."I'll take my leave then." Jensen turned around and left after not receiving any more orders. His mission was completed, and it was up to the Public Relations Department. He believed that Ms. Wyatt would handle it very well."What did Mr. Jensen take care of?" Lulu asked curiously. She knew that it must be related to her."Snow's assistant contacted the siblings again. She wanted the sister to pretend
In an instant, Snow became the most despised person in San Joto.Snow, who had yet to receive the news, was rummaging through her wardrobe to find a beautiful dress. She wanted to go to the hotel and pay her teacher a visit after knowing that Spencer had gone there."Ms. Riddle, something's gone wrong!" Her assistant rushed in with a pale face."Why are you shouting? What's wrong?" Snow said in a somewhat displeased tone.Her assistant approached her and took a moment to catch her breath before saying, "The siblings betrayed us and told the police everything. It's all over the internet now. What should we do?""What did you say?" Snow's voice grew sharp and her hand trembled. The dress she had just picked fell to the floor.However, Snow could not be bothered by the dress anymore. Her mind was in chaos, and she had no idea what to do next.Suddenly, her phone rang. She was startled and her face became even paler.She saw that it was her teacher calling. She bit her lip and her
The teacher sounded a little nervous. "What is it?"Spencer turned to look at Snow and said in a deep voice, "Make her leave San Joto and never come back."Nicole had already sent him a message before he came. She told him to answer this way if the teacher asked. Punishing Snow would not mean much to them, so it was better to make her leave. She would never be able to do any harm again.Besides, getting Snow to leave San Joto for good was probably the worst punishment to her, without costing them anything.Snow completely broke down after hearing what Spencer said. She could not help but scream, "No, I don't want to leave! Spencer, please don't do this to me! I want to stay!"They wanted her to leave San Joto forever and it would mean that she would never see Spencer again.No, she did not want that. She knew she was wrong, but she did not want to leave. She wanted to be with him."Would you prefer prison then?" the teacher said to Snow in a stern tone, his eyes filled with ange
"The teacher was even quicker. Snow should be on her way to the airport by now." Spencer shrugged. Of course, he came back right after doing what he had to."Are you sure?" Lulu exclaimed in surprise. Then, she scrutinized Spencer and furrowed her brows. "It looks like your teacher really likes Snow at a lot."Otherwise, he would not have been in such a hurry to send her away, fearing that they might change their minds.Spencer chuckled. "Not exactly. He's probably just worried that if he keeps Snow here, there might be more problems."They did not understand Snow, but the teacher knew her very well and had probably guessed that she would not give up so easily."Why did she agree to leave?" Lulu asked curiously."Her assistant was hired by the teacher," Spencer explained."I see." Lulu looked like she immediately understood everything. 'No wonder the assistant's willing to keep up with a person like her.'"We got what we wanted now that Snow has already left. We have nothing to
"Uncle Dexter, Aunt Emma," Nicole greeted. She urged Nolan and Lana to greet them too before sitting down.Gloria took a glance at Nicole and smiled. "You're back just in time! Come have a look at these pictures. Let me know if you think there are any suitable for your brother and your cousin Emery.""Why don't you let them choose?" Nicole felt embarrassed. 'They ought to have some say in the woman they want to marry in the future.'Gloria and Emma sighed in unison. "If they were willing, we wouldn't be here today."Nicole immediately understood. 'No wonder I hadn't been seeing Stanley around. He must've been hiding from Mom.'"What do you think of these ladies?" asked Nicole, referring to the photos of the women.Gloria and Emma rushed up from their seats with a bunch of photographs in their hands. "We've asked their family and did background checks. They all seem to be quite satisfied with Stanley's financial and job stability too.""That's for Emery," said Emma, pointing to a
Nolan did not refute his sister's statement. Everyone chuckled and brushed off Lana's words."Gloria, is what little Lana saying true?" asked Emma with hopeful eyes. 'If Stanley had real feelings for someone, it'd be a really good thing.'Gloria sighed. "I actually can't tell if he does."Gloria had the assumption that her children were still young and naive. She had witnessed Stanley helping out Tia often, but nothing developed further in their relationship. Furthermore, Stanley had agreed to do blind dates over dinner."The blind dates..." Emma hesitated. She did not want to break up the couple.After pondering for a moment, Gloria spoke up, "Let's make the arrangements first. If he ever confesses that he has feelings for someone else, then we might've been wrong to assume that he and Tia were ever a thing."Emma nodded in agreement. "Point taken.""I think we're almost done here. Why don't you guys stay for dinner?" Daniel offered.Everyone sat down in the dining room to hav
Nolan looked at Lana with a serious expression. "That's not a bad idea! Let's do it. But if you have more ideas in the future, I think you should tell me first and do it yourself.""I know." Lana smiled. She would always listen to her brother's advice.Nolan felt more at ease. He did not have to worry about Lana's schemes nor if it would implicate them both.While the twins were plotting up a storm upstairs, the adults were enjoying their dinner downstairs in the dining room, completely unaware.Once dinner was over, Dexter and Emma left. Spencer and Samuel also returned to their respective rooms.Gloria pulled Nicole aside. "Nicole, can you set up the date with the lady? If Stanley doesn't show up, tell me."Gloria knew Stanley was the one who agreed on the blind date in the first place, but he had ghosted everyone. She was worried about Stanley's attendance at the blind date."Sure thing," Nicole agreed with a smile on her face."I didn't expect that Stanley would be the one
Nicole furrowed her eyebrows. 'I thought Stanley had genuine feelings for Tia, but he agreed to go on blind dates. Could it be that we all misunderstood his intentions before?'Jared caressed Nicole's hair gently. "Don't think too much. He's not a child anymore. He can think for himself."Nicole nodded, immediately understanding what Jared meant. No matter how much effort anyone put in, the final decision had to be made by Stanley himself.When Nicole and Jared reached their room, Nicole massaged her shoulders, looking completely haggard.Jared sat next to her with a concerned expression. "Has work been too hectic for you recently?"'She looks so burnt out. Could it be the workload that's affecting her?' thought Jared."It's okay," said Nicole. She bit her lip hard trying not to show how stressful work was for her.Jared gave her a massage, trying to help her unwind."Come, let's sleep," said Jared with concern in his voice.Eyes half closed, Nicole agreed. Jared looked over a
