Jared pulled Nicole into his arms, planting a gentle kiss on her temple with utmost care.
Nicole looked up at him and rolled her eyes.
Jared smiled helplessly. 'She really knows how to press my buttons.'

"Mommy!"
Nolan and Lana came rushing over as they saw their parents arrive home.
Jared swooped Lana off her feet and brought her into a hug.
"I missed you, daddy!" Lana cheered, laughing.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"I missed you too."
Lana hugged her father’s neck and smiled. Jared patted Lana's head and walked toward the sofa.
Nicole looked at Nolan and asked, "Why are you guys still awake? Were you guys watching a movie?"
"I wanted to wait for mommy to come home so Grandma watched with us," explained Nolan.
Nicole held Nolan's hand and they walked toward the living room.
"Mom."
"You're back! Is your grandfather doing, ok?"
Nicole nodded. "He's doing fine. We discussed some company matters and came straight back here after dinner."
She left out the details of them talking about her uncles. She did not want her mother to start worrying about
nothing.
"It's getting late. Go put the kids in bed."
"Okay." Nicole helped her mother up from the sofa.
"Then I'll head up first." Gloria went upstairs.
Nicole and Jared followed suit, with Nolan and Lana.
"Mommy, is there still no news about the mission you sent?” Nolan asked as he laid down in bed.
"Not yet. This isn't an easy task, so the results might not come in as fast." Nicole patted her son's head lightly as she
explained.
Nolan nodded but had a somewhat dissatisfied look. Nicole chuckled as she watched her son being overly worried
about a mission she sent out.
"Don't worry about it. I think they'll give us something soon," said Nicole softly.

Nolan listened obediently and not long after, he fell asleep.
After the twins were put to bed, Jared and Nicole returned to their room.
"You can go ahead and rest first. I have to go check on the Hunters," said Nicole, taking out her laptop.
"It's okay, I can wait," Jared said gently.
"No, you go ahead. It might take a while."
'If everything goes well, it might take quite some time but if it doesn't, it’ll take even longer,' Nicole thought to
herself.
Jared shook his head. "It's okay. I'll go through my documents as I wait."
Nicole mentally sighed as she watched Jared get his laptop out.
After logging in to her laptop, Nicole went to check on the progress of the mission she sent out.
'As expected, the other party didn’t communicate at all after accepting the mission. I wonder if they took this as a
joke,' Nicole thought.
