Tia walked over. "Nicole.
In response, Nicole smiled. "Thank you for your hard work."
"It was nothing. It's easy to pick the kids up and drop them off," Tia said, bashful as she did not feel like it was a big
deal.
"Come on. Let's get in." Nicole held Nolan's hand and the group walked into the mansion.
In the living room, Gloria and Daniel were with Stanley and Spencer. With so many people together, the house
came alive with excitement and chatter.
"I'll go check on dinner. I'll have it sent to Grandma once it's ready," Tia informed, about to head to the kitchen.

"Sure, I'll go tell her. She'd definitely join us if you're inviting her," Tia said and went to the backyard.
Mrs. Wallace Sr. was quite old and had difficulty moving, so she rarely came to the front yard. She preferred to be
left alone in the backyard, only coming to the front yard during festivals or important occasions.
Today was Nicole's idea, and Tia believed Mrs. Wallace Sr. would agree to come over. Watching Tia go get Mrs.
Wallace Sr., Nicole smiled. It was not easy to get everyone to spend time together like this.
Soon, Mrs. Wallace Sr. was pushed over in a wheelchair by Tia, and the family was seated at the dining table.
The atmosphere was lively and joyous while everyone enjoyed the food and chatted away. After dinner, Nicole
pushed Mrs. Wallace Sr. back to the backyard with Tia beside them.
"Nicole, when you returned to us, it felt like my prayers were answered," Mrs. Wallace Sr. could not help but lament.
"I should've come back earlier.” Nicole sighed. Had she been aware of the warmth of her home, she would have
brought Nolan and Lana back to San Joto earlier.
"Regardless of the timing, it's good to have you back. We understand the hardships you endured out there." She
sounded heartbroken.
Nicole bit her lip, thinking, 'Were those days tough? Maybe a little, but with the kids, it didn't feel as difficult.
Anyway, it's all in the past.'
"Next is your marriage, and once that's settled, I'll have one less worry," Mrs. Wallace Sr. said, patting Nicole's hand.
"About that, l-l'll think about it first." Nicole wanted to express her desire to hold off on marriage, but she hesitated,
not wanting to be too blunt.
"I know you've always been strong, and Jared is great too. I'm quite at ease for you two," Mrs. Wallace Sr.

be worried about Tia."
"Me?" Tia was a little surprised. She felt she was doing just fine.
"Yes. I'm old, after all. When I leave... I really hope you would've found someone trustworthy." Mrs. Wallace Sr.
sighed.
For years, Tia had been taking care of Mrs. Wallace Sr. and had become like family to her. As a result, Mrs. Wallace
Sr. was naturally concerned for Tia's future.
Not expecting her to bring up the topic, Tia instantly blushed. She said hastily, "Grandma, l-l don't need to think
about these things yet."
"Why not? You're a grown-up now, and you can't possibly stay with me forever!" Mrs. Wallace Sr. exclaimed.
Besides, she might leave this world at any time.
"Don't say that. I'll always be by your side," Tia replied, her eyes starting to water with emotion.
"Silly girl." Mrs. Wallace Sr. smiled. She then turned to
Nicole again. ' Nicole, please take care of Tia in the future."
