Mr. Rogers Sr. walked someone tiredly toward his room. Shawn wanted to follow but was stopped by Mr. Rogers Sr.

"I want some quiet time by myself."

When he heard this, Shawn immediately stopped.

As he looked at Mr. Rogers Sr.'s figure gradually disappearing into the dim corridor, Shane turned to look at the dusk outside the manor as a cold smile appeared on his face.

The time is nigh. The old man could be really old, and he is extremely fearful. He had done everything in his power to extend his life.

So much so that he could not even see through Christopher's tricks.

But that Nicole... Shawn had never seen such a person who didn't give the Rogers family any face. However, she was still someone of high birth, so she might have some level of conceit to her.

When Shawn thought of this, he snorted as he took the skin-colored gloves off his hand and tossed them into the dustbin with disgust.

The old man's will has already been changed. He only needed to entertain him with this faux

    Nicole looked at her brothers expressionlessly and closed the car door, blocking their view of Jared, then walked ahead into the mansion."I'm sorry for being late. I bumped into someone on my way here."Questions filled Samuel's head, and he could not help asking, "Was Jared the one who sent you back?"Nicole nodded. She glanced casually at Samuel and froze, then strode toward him. "Who did this?" she said with an unconcealable, bitter voice.Samuel's black eyes were conspicuous, and it was apparent that he had been punched.When Nicole got angry, she looked intimidating. Samuel was transfixed for a second before he realized she was asking about his face.Samuel looked at his two brothers bitterly before courageously pointing at them. "It was them."Nicole followed his finger with a strange look on her face. "It was they who hit you?"Samuel was pointing at none other than Stanley and Spencer, nodding his head vigorously. He knew what Nicole was capable of; she was the martial

    Smiles faded from their faces as they all were embarrassed upon hearing what Samuel said.There was no denying that after Nicole returned to the family, they all became siscons, through and through. They had never treated Norah like this before. They could not help it. A biological sister was a biological sister—it was different.Spencer hesitated for a moment and said, "We have gotten back our long-lost sister; of course, we will pamper her." He looked up at Nicole with light in his eyes and continued. "I'm proud to be a siscon."Samuel shared his emotions and quickly nodded. "Me too!"Unlike others, Stanley's reaction was nothing over the top, but he still fully understood this feeling. He walked over and put his arm around Stanley and Spencer's shoulders. "Okay, we're all the same."They were not the only ones; he found that Sean and Steve's attitude had also changed to becoming much gentler with Nicole.Feeling the love of her brothers, there was an indescribable emotion in h

    Daniel was surprised by Mr. Riddle Sr.'s request, but he quickly nodded in agreement and called out, "Wait a minute, Nicole. Your grandpa wants to have a few words with you."Nicole was stopped in her tracks upon hearing that. Daniel left the room, leaving plenty of room for the two of them.Mr. Riddle Sr. looked at Nicole from behind and sighed softly. "Come over, Nicole," he said with no hesitation.Nicole turned her head and looked at Mr. Riddle Sr. with clear, cold eyes. She knew that Mr. Riddle Sr. was semi-conscious during the operation. So he probably knew that she was the one who had operated on him."Grandpa, you should take a good rest." She was not a person who likes to take credit for everything, so she did not want Mr. Riddle Sr.'s thanking her."Am I embarrassing you now?" Mr. Riddle Sr. pretended to be angry.Nicole had no choice but to go up to him. "I've never felt that way, Grandpa. Even though you still don't know me well, we are always a family." This was the

    After Nicole had settled with Mr. Riddle Sr., she was going to see Gloria downstairs.Steve and Sean had also come to the mansion, sitting in the living room talking with each other, frowning as if they were discussing something tricky. When they saw Nicole come downstairs, they both tacitly stopped their discussion."You're here, too, Nicole!"Nicole nodded in response, her eyes staying thoughtfully on her two brothers. Sean and Steve had quickly changed their topic of conversation, but Nicole could hear them talking about how Sebastian Wyance changed his attitude all of a sudden. But Nicole did not know who that person was, nor did she give it a second thought.Sean did not want Nicole to get involved in these things, and Steve obviously thought the same thing. He smiled gently at Nicole and asked, "Where are you going?"Nicole said nothing but looked over at the kitchen at the other end. Sean and Steve followed her gaze, and their expression turned gentle when they saw Gloria w

    That probably meant that Riddle Corporation could lose the tender."What will happen if we lose?"Gloria did not want to hide things from her daughter, so she said in a whisper, "If we lose, we will lose everything that we have invested in that land."Of course, that was not all. Money spent on greasing the wheels, which were not small amounts, would also go down the drain. So losing the tender meant hollowing out the cash flow and increasing the debts of Riddle Corporation.Gloria was afraid of putting too much pressure on her daughter, so what she told her was an understatement. But Nicole could easily hear the worry and nervousness she implied in her words. After all, this was the biggest investment that Riddle Corporation had bet on in years.Nicole did not go on asking but looked knowingly at Gloria's somewhat tired face."You have a good rest, Mom. I will go first.""You're leaving so quick?" Gloria asked eagerly."I have to study for my monthly exam, which is coming soon

    When Max overheard the conversation between his boss and Nicole, he pretended to look back inadvertently. He was shocked when he saw Jared looking down and fiddling with something in his hands.Nicole also saw the thing in Jared's hand—it was a glinting dagger. She immediately recognized it as the dagger he had held in Nottingbrook State, only that this time he did not sheathe it.The narrow-bladed dagger spun in Jared's shapely hand. It looked cool, but Nicole could not help but frown. She gently put her hand to Jared's hand, which was fiddling with the dagger, and looked him in the eyes. "Stop," she said.Jared also looked her in the eyes, and his eyes lit up when he saw her concerns in her eyes. He smiled and said in a low but gentle voice, "Okay."Max, who was behind the wheel, saw what had happened and was in fright. Jared would play with something in his hand when he was in a black mood, and he would fiddle with the dagger when his mood was extremely terrible. So no one dared

    Max did not hear what Jared said and looked back. "We have heard nothing about Michael for so long. Could it be…"Jared was abroad for the most part of the year, but he knew what was happening in Hustuaburg. It was the Johnston family that appointed Michael to the position, but there was not a peep out of them when Michael had done such a terrible job. Someone must have put sand in the wheels.Jared had apparently thought of this long ago, and he already had a candidate in mind. Just that when he thought of that person, his expression would become glacial. He lazily leaned back in the seat, looking at the lights and heavy traffic flying past the window outside with an assured look in his eyes."There is no rush," he said. His voice was smug, and Max could tell there was a hint of indifference in it. "They will show themselves."Max was confused, but he would not question Jared's decision. He nodded his head and then said hesitantly, "There is news from my father: Mr. Rogers Sr. has

    Nicole was getting a lot of stares on her way back to the dormitory. June and Lulu were there and exultant, and when they saw Nicole enter.Lulu pointed to the computer and said, "Come and take a look, Nicole. After your brothers said you were from the Riddle family, those people on the Internet are frantically deleting their posts."June was looking at her phone and then said to Nicole with a cheerful face, "I didn't expect you to be so badass; you even saved Lulu's brother. Did you know Jimmy is the main operator of the campus forum? He has blocked all those posts that smear you and even banned those haters."June and Lulu glanced at each other, both feeling extremely vindicated.But Nicole was insouciant. She did not really care what stories about her those people were making up every day, but seeing the two of them so excited, she could not help but smile.Lulu looked at Nicole and clenched her little fists. "You may not know how bad their mouths are if you don't surf the Inte

    "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
