Chapter 2951

Author: Summer
"Considering what you asked for, these are the folks I managed to find. You seemed in a rush. If not, I might've found more," Pisces explained, looking a bit helpless.

"Alright," Scorpio hesitated, then added, "Leave the room. They'll stay."

"Sure thing," Pisces responded. "If you need anything, just let me know."

Once Pisces left, Scorpio checked out the people Pisces brought in. "Were all of you previously bodyguards?"

"Yes," they answered together.

"And before that?" Scorpio inquired.

"Some worked as mercenaries," came the reply.

Scorpio looked satisfied. Though fewer than he expected, their skills seemed sufficient for the task.

"I've got a job for you. Get it done, and this is what you'll get," Scorpio said, nodding toward a briefcase on the coffee table.

"We're in," they agreed, then inquired, "What's the job?"

"I need you to... handle someone for me," Scorpio replied cryptically.

Silence settled in the room after Scorpio spoke.

"What, you nervous?" Scorpio frowned.

    "Lulu, when those helpers arrive, can you please get everything organized?" Nicole instructed Lulu."Sure thing," Lulu agreed, "I'll start preparing right away."Lulu wanted to get things sorted in advance to avoid any last-minute rush when the others arrived. It would save effort once they showed up."Nicole, we understand things have been hectic lately. If you're feeling overwhelmed, take some time off," Sean suggested, concern evident in his eyes as he advised Nicole.Nicole smiled, "I'm good, no need to fret."Despite the increased workload, she didn't feel overwhelmed. Plus, Sean and Steve had their own tasks to manage. Besides, Steve had to look after Sally, so Nicole decided not to take a break.Frowning slightly, Steve asked, "You beat Lawrence and acquired the Water Crest, but he hasn't reacted in any way?"He found it odd for Lawrence to stay silent."No matter what his next move is, I'll handle it," Nicole's expression turned serious. She looked at Sean and Steve wit

    Soon, they reached the kindergarten."Nicole, what should we do?" Tia's eyes were brimming with tears, her worry evident.Nicole gritted her teeth and suggested, "Let's talk to their homeroom teacher now.""Okay, let's figure this out," Lulu agreed, heading off to find the teacher.They found the teacher, her face etched with worry."What happened?" Lulu asked, puzzled at how the kids could just vanish from the kindergarten."They came in disguised as delivery people. When they saw Nolan and Lana, they tried to take them. Some people tried to stop them, and there was a clash."They all left the school, and when we returned, the kids were gone. We've been looking ever since," the homeroom teacher explained, her voice laced with panic."Could this be a trap?" Lulu wondered aloud to Nicole.Lulu suspected that the men who intervened were the ones Jared had sent to protect Nolan and Lana. They probably didn't want to cause a scene at the school, so they handled it quietly."Were

    After hearing the teacher's words, Nicole headed straight toward the storage room.The door was securely locked, requiring a password to open. It was an electronic lock, not just any ordinary one.Nicole touched the doorknob, pausing for a moment. She then activated a special feature on her watch. The watch connected via infrared and a virtual keypad appeared.With a few quick taps, she unlocked the electronic lock, and it clicked open.The staff who had followed Nicole were shocked to see her open the locked door so easily. They stood there, amazed and confused.'How did she open a locked door? Could it have been unlocked all along?' they thought.But Nicole didn't pay attention to their reactions. She entered the storage room and immediately began searching for Nolan and Lana.She had noticed while unlocking the door that someone else had previously used the same method. In this place, she knew only Nolan could have done that."Nolan, Lana?" Nicole called out gently, her eyes

    "We're okay," Nolan and Lana assured everyone.The school staff, visibly relieved to see the children unharmed, showed their concern, asking if the kids were injured or frightened."The children are fine. They hid and fell asleep, so they didn't hear when they were called," Nicole explained."It's good that the kids are found," the staff said together, clearly relieved that the children weren't in danger."I'll take them home now. They will rest for a couple of days before coming back to school," Nicole decided, intending to give Nolan and Lana some time off."Alright," the homeroom teacher agreed, accompanying Nicole and the children to the kindergarten's exit."Let the kids rest well. We're sorry this happened. We'll strengthen our security measures," the homeroom teacher sincerely apologized to Nicole.Nicole, feeling a bit responsible herself, replied, "We should be the ones apologizing."She knew it wasn't the kindergarten's fault and was just thankful that no other childr

    At this moment, it seemed right to let Nolan and Lana relax and get a good night's sleep.After ensuring they were asleep, Nicole took Lana back to her room and then went downstairs. Lulu and Tia were still engaged in conversation with Gloria. Seeing Nicole arrive alone, they understood that Nolan and Lana had already retired for the night.Nicole casually joined the group on the couch, but her mind was elsewhere. She was anticipating news from Jared's bodyguards, who had been protecting Nolan and Lana near the kindergarten and were now pursuing the kidnappers. Nicole was expecting an update on the situation soon.Her phone rang shortly after. It was Max."Make it quick," Nicole answered."The operation went smoothly, but the outcome is still uncertain," Max reported concisely."Okay," Nicole acknowledged and hung up, pleased that Max was succinct in his communication. His brief update was clear to her but vague enough to not arouse Gloria's concern.As expected, Gloria, thinkin

    Jared's expression turned serious as he considered the intricate relationship between Lawrence and Scorpio. Both were subtly using each other to probe and test, neither wanting to be at a disadvantage."He won't remain silent for long," Jared commented, a hint of coldness in his voice.Jared believed that Scorpio, after failing his mission, would inevitably direct his anger toward Lawrence, and Lawrence wouldn't stay hidden indefinitely."Do you think Lawrence will take direct action?" Max inquired, his face slightly pale.Raising an eyebrow, Jared replied coolly, "From the moment he took Everett away, he had already made his move."Max, somewhat taken aback, respectfully responded, "Yes."Indeed, Lawrence's recent actions, especially his decision to help Everett, indicated a significant shift. He was now openly positioning himself against Nicole's interests.Jared, with a dismissive gesture, instructed, "Rearrange the security at the kindergarten. Ensure protection both inside

    After a moment of hesitation, Stanley said, "Shouldn't we tell Mom and Dad? If this keeps up, they're going to find out eventually.""Let's try to keep it from them as long as we can," Nicole sighed.Nicole was determined to control the situation as much as possible, hoping to avoid causing unnecessary alarm to the family.Stanley glanced at Nicole and whispered, "If there's anything we need to do, just let us know.""Okay," Nicole replied with a smile, nodding in agreement.She knew that 'us' included not only Stanley and Tia but also other family members. If needed, Daniel, Gloria, Benjamin, and her uncles were all ready to help."I'm going to the backyard," Stanley said, nodding before he turned and left."There he goes to see Tia again," Gloria chuckled, watching Stanley leave. "They're not in a hurry to marry, but maybe it's better if they do it sooner."Nicole returned to the couch and smiled, "Maybe they're enjoying things as they are now.""Let them be. Besides, even i

    Nicole looked at Nolan and said, "You and Lana can rest at home for a couple of days, then go back to school as usual. There won't be any more trouble."Nolan raised his head, frowning. "Or, we don't take a break. This might make them even angrier, and they would act desperately.""What?" Nicole was momentarily taken aback."They failed this time, and Lana and I are unharmed. They might be more aggressive next time. We could set a trap to catch them," Nolan explained.Nicole rubbed Nolan's head. "Don't worry about these things. Your dad and I will handle it."Nolan raised an eyebrow slightly. "So, you already have a plan to deal with them?""We're waiting for news," Nicole replied, not revealing too much but still sharing some information with Nolan."Okay," Nolan nodded, reassured by the plan."Alright, don't stay up too late. You should get some rest," Nicole said, noticing Nolan had finished one task and was about to start another.Nolan hesitated before agreeing, "Okay."

    "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
