"No, that's not what I meant. I-I just..." Tia stuttered, frustrated. She was blushing. "I like being at home.""Nicole, why don't you arrange a spot for her in your company? It doesn't matter if it's a janitor. I'm sure there'll be chances for her to meet new people," Mrs. Wallace Sr. urged."No, I don't need that." Tia shook her head. She turned to Nicole. "Nicole, I'm fine. Just let me take care of Grandma.""But Grandma wants you to get married," said Nicole, pretending to sound conflicted.Tia bit her lip and, after hesitating, she said softly, "Grandma, I don't want to get married."Looking at Tia's desolate expression, Mrs. Wallace Sr. felt heartbroken for her and asked, "Did something happen?""Nothing happened. I just feel that I'm quite satisfied with the life I have right now," Tia said with a half-smile, not wanting Mrs. Wallace Sr. to worry for her."Grandma, I say let's forget about it. Maybe Tia's destiny has yet to come. There's no need to rush it," Nicole reassu

Gloria nodded in satisfaction. "Very well. After these three days, are there any more seminars going on?""For now, nothing is scheduled," Stanley replied, already feeling overwhelmed."Since nothing is scheduled, keep that time available," Gloria decided for him. "Remember, you promised us to leave that time open for any dates or appointments."Stanley silently screamed in agony to himself. "Alright, I got it." He pretended to agree to his mother's request, but in fact, he was contemplating escaping the country."Stop daydreaming. I already kept your passport. If this date doesn't go successfully, don't you dare think of going anywhere else," Gloria warmed, seeing through her son.Stanley immediately put on a smiling face. "Come on, why would I? After my seminar ends, there'll still be some follow-up work to do. I won't leave San Joto anytime soon.""Alright," Gloria said, satisfied. "I hope when you leave San Joto, it'll be for your honeymoon.""Can I go upstairs now? I really

Jared saw Nicole searching through The Hunters and asked, "What are you doing?""Lawrence left San Joto and went back to Mecrounia, saying there was something he needed to attend to. But I have this strange feeling, so I wanted to find out more," Nicole explained.When Lawrence left, everything seemed peaceful and fine. However, Nicole found his departure too sudden. If he had no specific reason, he should not have left at this time."It's very peaceful over there," Jared said blandly.Shocked, Nicole looked at him. "You already checked?""I've sent some people there, but there hasn't been any news recently," Jared explained. That was why he knew it was peaceful over there, and nothing major happened. Otherwise, he would have gotten the news.'I see,' Nicole thought, a hint of understanding crossing her eyes. She chuckled, "Well, that confirms my suspicion since nothing happened there."Lawrence did not have anything to attend to, so he left San Joto for other reasons."Could i

"Mr. Ellison is waiting in the reception room," Nicole's assistant replied.Nicole entered the reception room and saw Harvey leaning on the couch leisurely, eyeing everything inside.Sensing a presence, Harvey turned and saw Nicole. He put on a fake smile, stood up, and acted like a gentleman. "We meet again, Ms. Riddle.""Nice to meet you," Nicole said indifferently, keeping a strictly professional demeanor.KNOCK, KNOCK, KNOCK.The assistant brought coffee into the room."Mr. Ellison, have some coffee," said Nicole, gesturing in that direction. Then, she sat down and invited Harvey to do the same. "Since Mr. Ellison is present here, shall we talk about the joint venture factory?""Well, there's no rush in that," said Harvey. His purpose here had nothing to do with discussing the joint venture. Compared to losing a factory, he felt it was more important to build a closer relationship with Nicole.Shocked, Nicole raised her brows and asked, "Well, I have no idea what else there

Harvey leaned into his seat, his gaze gloomy as he looked out the car window. 'Nicole didn't seem affected by the matter. Why? She wanted to purchase the electronic component factory, but I tampered with the contract secretly. Shouldn't she be angry and frustrated now that it turned into a joint venture? Why am I the one feeling the angry now?'"If it were you, wouldn't you be angry?" Harvey questioned his assistant abruptly.His assistant froze for a moment before cautiously asking, "What should I be angry about?"Harvey said displeased, "Wouldn't you be angry about the contract?""Well," his assistant said, looking at Harvey in the rearview mirror. He pondered for a moment before answering, "I guess I would. Maybe Nicole is pretending to show you her anger. It's like admitting defeat if she showed her frustration."The atmosphere in the car fell into silence for a moment before Harvey's chuckle sounded. "You're right. That made sense."If Nicole got mad in front of him, it woul

"Yeah."Meanwhile, Nolan and Lana said to the driver, "Let's go to Sarley on Timeston Road.""Didn't you guys want to get ice cream?" asked Tia, finding it strange."Oh, my classmate said that the ice cream there is better," Nolan replied calmly.Tia knew that they loved ice cream, so she did not think much of it and brought them to Sorley.Sarley was a commercial district, where there were a lot of offices and business clubs. There were also some mini restaurants that sold food and beverages, as well as some small supermarkets."Nolan, where's the ice cream shop that we're going to?" Lana asked Nolan while glancing around.They were not familiar with this place at all, and everything Nolan knew about Sarley was from the internet. The buildings around them all shared similar designs and it was very confusing.Nolan was also looking around, but he was not searching for the ice cream shop. Instead, he was looking for a club because he had heard that Stanley would go there alone t

"Okay then," Tia agreed as it seemed like Nolan and Lana were planning to finish their ice cream here before leaving.Besides, Nicole had also told her that she would be coming, and they would have to wait for her anyway.Once upstairs, Nolan and Lana searched through several private rooms upstairs but still could not see Stanley anywhere."Kids, all the rooms ahead are occupied," one of the staff told them as there were no empty rooms left."Miss," Lana suddenly grabbed the staff and spoke in a hushed tone, "Is Stanley Riddle here today?"Seeing the staff's hesitation, Lana added, "He's actually my uncle."The staff widened her gaze in surprise upon hearing that. Then she nodded. "Ah, I see. I was just wondering why you two looked so familiar."Although no outsiders were invited to Nolan and Lana's party, the staff happened to have a close friend working at that hotel. Coincidentally, she had a day off and visited her friend there when the party was being held. So, she saw Nola

Stanley's lip twitched as he immediately thought to himself again, 'This can't be just a mere coincidence, right?'He believed their story about coming here to have ice cream, but the fact that they were aware of his room's location and that the staff entered with four portions of ice cream made the situation seem highly unlikely.Then, Stanley remembered how Nolan and Lana had pestered him with questions about where he was going after work. He called to tell them that he needed a quiet place to think, so he would come to Serenity.Stanley could not help but frown at Nolan and Lana as if he had realized something."Uncle Stanley, you should have a taste." Lana had yet to notice the change in Stanley's expression as she spoke. "Ms. Rose, have a seat," she added.However, Nolan had already noticed Stanley's suspicions, so he quickly changed the subject, "Uncle Stanley, let's try the ice cream first. Mom and Dad will be here soon.""They're coming?!" Stanley was shocked as he subcon

"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. "You look truly beautiful today," he remarked."Daddy, Mommy is beautiful every day," Lana chimed in, til

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
