Chapter 2042
"That's just your opinion.
Nicole's cheeks flushed a deep shade of red, unable to muster an appropriate response to Jared's words. She was
afraid that he would continue to tease her.
Nicole had noticed the stare of the woman when her eyes were on Jared, inferring that they did not share an
ordinary superior and subordinate relationship. Nicole was uncomfortable about it, and that was why she had
brought it up to question. However, Nicole did not anticipate that Jared would laugh at her and accuse her of being
jealous, a charge which had left her feeling embarrassed.
Perhaps I'll be able to validate the truth of our relationship the day I recover my memories, but then again, I don't
really care about these things. Until then, I can help him lessen his number of admirers,' Nicole thought.

'Though Nicole did not directly admit that she was jealous, I can see that she still has feelings for me. So far so
good. Looks like we're making progress,' Jared thought.
The two of them then returned to Riddle's residence.
"Mommy, did you go on a date with daddy?" Lana joyfully rushed over at full speed as soon as Nicole entered the
living room.
Noticing that her parents were watching TV with both Nolan and Lana, Nicole asked, "Mom, Dad? Why are you guys
still awake?"
"Nolan and Lana wanted to wait for you guys to come home. It's still early so we decided to watch some TV to kill
time while we wait for you guys to come home," Gloria replied with a smile.
"Mommy, how was the date with daddy?" Lana raised her head.
She was the one who had insisted on waiting for her parents to come home.
Nicole patted Lana on her head and corrected her. "It's not a date. Mommy and daddy had adult things to deal with,
so we had to come home a little late."
Lana, being the clever girl she was, turned to ask Jared, *' Daddy, did you and mommy go on a date? Mommy
doesn't want to admit it."
The corners of Nicole's lip twitched a little as she helplessly warned, "Lana?"
'This girl is getting more and more out of control,' Nicole thought.
Jared smiled and nodded as he agreed, "Yeah."
Satisfied, Lana smugly raised her chin. "I knew it."
"You don't know anything, stupid." Nolan snorted in dismay before trotting his way upstairs.
Nicole sighed when she saw Nolan reacting that way. She then gave Jared a blank look, hoping that Jared would be

'There are things that can only be accepted with the passing of time. On top of that, he told the kids that we went
on a real date instead of a casual dinner together,' she thought.
"He will have to accept it sooner or later." Jared frowned, feeling that he should not be hiding this from them.
'The kids have the right to know. Not to mention I am their father, and we will be living together from now on
anyway,' he thought.
"Mommy, I'm not stupid. Nolan is." Lana pouted.
Mommy should be with daddy. He is stupid for being angry,' Lana thought.
"Alright, it's almost time. Since you guys are back, you can put the kids to bed." Gloria said, signaling Nicole to go
ahead and console the young boy.
She felt sorry for Nolan, but she also agreed with Jared's reasoning.
After that, Jared carried Lana in his arms and said, "Right. Off we go to bed."
