"Very clever, indeed." Jared bopped Lana's nose with a smile.
In turn, Lana giggled with satisfaction.
"Mommy, should we continue to wait for him?" Nolan asked, glancing at Lana before turning to look at Nicole.
"Let's wait for a while longer," Nicole replied. 'This might be our only hope.'
"Okay." Nolan nodded obediently, not daring to make any decisions on his own.
Then, Nicole softly caressed Nolan's head. "Come on, let's go to bed."
"Okay." Nolan nodded in agreement.
After that, Jared shot them one last glance and said, "I'll go put Lana in bed."

"Good night." Nolan waved back.
"Go take a shower and get ready for bed." Nicole patted Nolan on the back to usher him to the bathroom.
Nolan then grabbed his pajamas and waddled to the bathroom, and not long after, he emerged wearing them.
Nicole watched as Nolan climbed onto his bed, after which she tucked him in.
"Mommy, are you and godfather never going to be together? " Nolan asked through gritted teeth.
Nicole sighed, staring at him as her eyes brimmed with love. "Nolan, your godfather and I can only be friends."
"Is it because of Daddy?" Nolan said, trying his best to sputter out the word 'daddy'.
"No,1 Nicole lowered her voice. "Even if I didn't come back here and meet your daddy, your godfather and I would
only ever be friends."
Nicole had made it clear that even if these turns in her life had not occurred, she and Lawrence would never be an
item. Regardless of whether they were on the island or not, Nicole's sole goal was to take good care of both her
children. Lawrence had, and would never be a part of her plan in life, even though she was eternally grateful for his
help.
Gritting his teeth, Nolan groaned, "Oh." He thought, 'It didn't work!'
Having noticed the grimace on his face, she gently patted his head. "Nolan, you're still too young to understand
what Mommy is saying right now, but when you grow older, you will."
Nicole understood that Nolan was still young and lacked sufficient understanding of feelings and emotions.
'It is clear that Nolan and Lawrence are inseparable, though we can't be together as a family. It is a certainty that
Lawrence has played a large part in his life, despite not being his birth father. Being his godfather is the next best

"Alright, Mommy. I'm going to sleep now. Goodnight," he said.
Hearing that, Nicole planted a kiss on Nolan's cheek. "Good night, baby."
Then, she switched the bedside lamp off before turning to leave Nolan's room, but once she was out, she bumped
right into a sturdy figure. "Why are you out here standing and not in our room?"
"I'm waiting for you." Jared looked at Nicole before lifting her off her feet.
"Hey! What do you think you're doing?" Nicole lowered her voice, glaring at Jared.
"Going back to our room."
As soon as Jared had spoken, he took large strides toward their room with Nicole in his arms.
Following the gesture, Nicole could feel her heart pounding in her chest, her shaky hands inadvertently gripping
onto the hem of Jared's clothes.
Jared looked down at her, flashed her a wicked smile, and made a beeline for their bed.
Then, their fingers intertwined, and in a soft, coquettish voice, she called out, "Jared Johnston."
