Chapter 1604
Steve could not help but click his tongue. "It seems to me the three of you are all grown up."
In response, Stanley looked at Steve and joked, "Oh, you're too kind, but we're not like you. For you, plus ones are
never in short supply."
Stanley's words were so abrupt that Steve almost choked on the water he was drinking.
"Stanley, stop spewing hogwash, will you?" Steve said.
At that moment, something came to mind and Samuel joined in on the joke. "Yeah! I heard that Steve always has
different women as his plus ones for every event."
Steve eyed his father's expression with a hint of guilt on his face, after which he glared at Samuel.
"Shut up. Enough with the nonsense. They're my colleagues from my company," Steve argued.
However, the way Gloria had interpreted it, sounded like something entirely different.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThen, she gave Steve a friendly smile. "Steve is getting old as we speak. You are now at the age when you're
supposed to get your own girlfriend now. If there's a person you like, you can bring her home and introduce her to
us."
"Mom, stop teasing me," Steve protested. "I'm a career- orientated person. Besides, I have Sean as an older
brother.
How can I have a girlfriend before he does?"
The words that left Steve's mouth shifted the attention to Sean, who then shot Steve a death stare, shutting him up
at once.
However, Gloria was already nodding along. "Yeah, Sean! You've been busy at the office all day. Have you gotten
yourself a girl? You can bring her to the event meeting."
Sean sighed. "Mom, you know that I'm a busy person. How am I even supposed to find the time to date someone?"
Gloria shook her head immediately, and looked back at Nicole, "You should learn a thing or two from Nicole. She's
busy with both her work and her studies, and yet, she's soon to settle down with marriage in the talks. Come to
think of it, I was engaged to your father as soon as I turned 18, but you guys..."
After Gloria had spoken to all of the young Riddles, everyone looked at Nicole with their eyes narrowed.
A look of helplessness washed over her face at an instant.' Why was I brought into this? Now, I've become the butt
of the joke.'
Spencer spoke up and said, "Yes, there's no need to worry about Nicole, she's definitely going to attend the event
with Jared as her plus one, and they sure won't let you down on that."
"Yeah, I'm also envious." Samuel nodded his head.
Sensing the envy from everyone around her, Nicole's face turned bright red from embarrassment.
Then, she took a deep breath and said, "If you are all jealous of me, how about I help you out and get you all
girlfriends?"
As soon as these words exited her mouth, the Riddle brothers immediately fell silent.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSteve quickly shook his head, "Forget it. I still want to be single for a few more years. I want to enjoy the freedom of
being single."
Stanley also shook his head, "I just want to focus on my studies, and I still need to learn more about the company."
Noticing that both Steve and Stanley were embarrassed, Spencer could not help but burst into a laughing fit. "Wow,
Steve and Stanley are scared!"
Indeed, it was a rare sight to see, and in retaliation, Steve frowned. "If you're not a coward, let Nicole get you a
girlfriend!"
Spencer's smirk suddenly froze, and with a smile, Nicole said, "It's a deal."
Nicole sipped on her tea before Samuel spoke up, beating Spencer to it, "I... I want one too!"
"Sure." Nicole smiled,
Samuel's wish might come true soon enough, for there was no need for Nicole to search long and hard.
Spencer suddenly sighed before he yelled, "Shut up!"
'Does this fella really think I want a girlfriend?'
