Chapter 2196
The new day seemed to be full of hope. After breakfast, everyone was ready to start their busy day.
"Hi, Nicole. I'm here to pick Nolan and Lana up," Tia arrived, ready to take Nolan and Lana to kindergarten.
"Hi, Aunt Tia," Nolan and Lana grabbed their school bags, greeted Tia, and left the house with her.
"Go on. Be good, alright?" Nicole reminded them.
Then, Nolan and Lana waved their hands at Nicole. "Bye-bye, Mommy."
"Nicole, well leave first," Tia walked away with the twins in tow. Just as she turned around, she almost bumped into
someone's arm, and in shock, she abruptly stopped in her tracks.
Recognizing the person, Tia whispered, "Mr. Stanley. Is there something up?"
"I was just about to leave. Let's go together," Stanley said, turned around, and walked away.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTia stared at his figure skeptically. She was puzzled as Stanley seemed to be busy nowadays. He was always the one
who left earliest and came back the latest, which was unlike his usual routine.
"Let's go, Aunt Tia,” Nolan went over to Stanley's car with a shrewd look on his face.
Tia froze for a moment, "Huh?"
After that, Lana pulled Tia to the car, saying, "Aunt Tia, let's hurry up. Otherwise, well be late."
"Oh, okay," Tia instantly picked up her pace as she heard Lana mentioning about being late.
After they had all gotten in, the car drove off. Nicole's eyes narrowed into a meaningful smile as she watched the
entire situation. Stanley indeed had special feelings for Tia, after all.
"Let's leave too," Jared's voice emanated from next to Nicole, causing her to snap back to reality and follow him to
the car.
Soon, Jared sent Nicole to Riddle Corporation. Just as she had gotten down from the car, she heard someone calling
out to her when she was ready to enter the building.
Nicole turned around to discover that it was Lawrence, prompting her to be surprised. "Leo? Why are you here?"
"I was passing by, so I figured I might as well pay you a visit. So, how are you doing lately?" Lawrence said with a
beaming smile.
"Just the same old. Let’s go up," Nicole smiled and took Lawrence up to the office building.
At the office, the secretary quickly brought coffee for them before exiting not long after.
"Have a seat," Nicole said.
After they had both sauntered to the couch and taken their seats, Lawrence asked in a seemingly casual manner,
"You seem busy lately."
"It's alright. It's all work stuff, they're manageable," Nicole smiled, feeling that it was better for her to be occupied.
In an apparent tone of concern, Lawrence advised, "You've still not recovered entirely. Remember not to overwork
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmyourself. Your health should be your top priority."
Nicole laughed in response. "I understand, though I really don't find it exhausting."
Lawrence nodded a little, and with a reassuring look, he casually added, "Nolan has not been taking up any mission,
hasn't he? I've not noticed any activity from him lately."
Nicole was taken aback for a moment, but before long, she collected herself and explained, "Well, he does play
around occasionally."
Lawrence nodded with understanding. "No wonder I've rarely seen him being active. Though, he does often leave
me messages."
"Nolan left you messages again?" Nicole asked in defeat.
Nolan was indeed quite attached to Lawrence.
"Yep," Lawrence smiled. "He mentioned a few days ago that he wants to go to the amusement park when he has
free time. I promised I would take him when I'm free.”
