Chapter 2313
Before her niece could reject again, Gloria said, "Nicole, you should visit Uncle Dexter when you're free."
After all, it would be ungracious not to accept one's kindness. Gloria felt that Dexter and his family had no ill
intentions toward them, so of course they would have to build a good relationship. At the end of the day, they were
family.
Hearing Gloria's advice, Nicole decided to accept the invite. "Alright then. I'll bring my parents along with me."
"Haha, sure! The more the merrier. Ask your brothers to join you as well!" Dexter responded with laughter.
"We're all here to visit Grandpa, and here you guys are causing a commotion while ignoring Grandpa. What attitude
is this?" Raine scoffed and scorned them.
Nicole frowned a little and thought, 'Raine really loves to make things difficult for me. She'll even put on a show in
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtfront of Grandpa and act like she cares about him. I'm afraid she'll only be able to fool herself with this show.
Nicole shot a cold glance at Raine, and questioned, "Aren't we gathered here because Uncle Damien wanted to
announce something? So, we're actually here just to visit Grandpa?"
"Of course we're here to visit Grandpa. What other matters would there be?" As Raine spoke, she glared at Damien
and his family unsatisfactorily.
The relationship between both families had been determined. Therefore, Raine did not want to attend the gathering
at all. Yet, she was worried that she would miss out on some news. So, she forced herself to attend and find it out.
Everett naturally caught Raine's glare. He narrowed his eyes but soon adjusted himself back to normal.
"Raine, I think it's best for us to hear it from Uncle Damien. After all, we're not quite sure what's going on." Snow
pretended to be considerate. She appeared to be saving Raine from being embarrassed, when in fact, she was also
testing Damien.
No matter what, Damien and his family were acting weird. They suddenly gathered the whole clan but did not
reveal the main reason.
"Heh! In fact, I gathered everyone here just to have some fun. It's just that, I think Dad might feel lonely from being
alone for quite some time. That's why I suggested everyone come here," Damien smiled as he spoke. He seemed to
be doing this solely for the sake of Mr. Riddle Sr.
A cold smirk formed on Nicole's face as she analyzed everyone's intentions.
'These people... Raine is purely here to provoke me. Snow isn't as pure as she pretends to be. As for Uncle Damien,
I'm even more sure that he gathered everyone for some other purpose.'
Since everyone had arrived and Damien had not announced a single thing, there was only one possibility left. And
that was to create a camouflage.
Damien intended to use these people as a cover-up. After all, it would be hard to manage the scene with so many
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmpeople around. If they were planning to do something, this would create a perfect opportunity for them. And with
so many people here, anyone could be easily turned into a scapegoat.
It's really a good plan.' Nicole let out a scorn. But unfortunately, she was not going to give them the chance to do it.
Nicole turned and looked at Sean. Then, she lightly nodded her head. Sean responded once he understood the
signal.
Withdrawing her gaze, Nicole turned and looked at Raine as well as Snow. 'Since Uncle Damien is the mastermind, I
should give him some chance to present his show.'
Nicole suddenly turned over, and Raine turned pale. Raine regained her composure and said angrily, "What are you
looking at?"
"Didn't you feel left out just now? I thought you wanted to chat with me." Nicole responded innocently.
"When did I say I want to chat with you?" Raine gave Nicole a hard stare.
"Then, what were you trying to say just now? You were trying to frame me?" Nicole questioned with an angry look.
Raine's face turned pale again. She gritted her teeth and responded pitifully, "I was just reminding you not to ignore
Grandpa."
