Chapter 2878
"Are you guys serious about this decision? But..." Gloria hesitated for a moment.
The rest of her children had their own houses, and it was tradition that they would all move out once they were
married.
"Yes, we've set our mind on it." Stanley smiled and said. "We wish to stay here. That way, the house will still be as
lively as ever. Besides, it'll be convenient for US to take care of you and grandma." "You don't have to worry about
grandma and US. Once you and Tia get married, someone else will take care of grandma," Gloria argued, worried
that Stanley and Tia had only decided not to move out because of Mrs. Wallace Sr.
"We've really thought it through," Stanley insisted, even though he understood what Gloria's concerns were.
While they were on the subject, Tia chimed in, "Yes, I want to continue taking care of grandma."
Although Nicole had hired her to be Mrs. Wallace Sr. 's caretaker, their relationship had evolved over the years.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThey had grown to be very tight- knit now, much like a grandmother and her granddaughter. Owing to all those
years of care, Tia was certain that Mrs. Wallace Sr. would be more comfortable with her habits and her company.
"That's right. It'll be more comfortable for the both of US if we stay here." Stanley nodded.
Seeing that the two of them were determined to stick around, Gloria looked at Daniel in helplessness, as if to ask
for his opinion on the matter.
"If the kids have no objections to sticking around, we'll respect their wishes, " Daniel replied.
Gloria and Daniel did not wish to deprive Tia of the new home she deserved, but if it was her wish to stay here with
them, they would offer their unconditional support.
"We're fine with it," Tia immediately replied.
Everyone turned to look at Tia, whereupon they burst out laughing, causing her to blush in shyness once more.
"Alright, we'll go along with what you guys have decided then." Gloria added. "The both of you will continue saying
here. As for the wedding planning, we'll start working on it for the both of you. Well let you decide on the date."
Now that Stanley and Tia's relationship was stable, Gloria and Daniel could finally enjoy their peace of mind. In fact,
they were not really in a rush to get them married, as Stanley had found someone he loved at long last. With that in
mind, they had decided to give the couple the freedom of choosing the date of their ceremony.
After Gloria had spoken, she turned to look at Tia with a smile. "I wasn't expecting this, but it's amazing that the
both of you finally found each other. Oh, this is great!" "Gloria?" Tia blushed again and lowered her head in shyness.
"I agree. My wish for Tia's future has finally been granted!" Mrs. Wallace Sr. said, her eyes wet with tears.
Gloria, on the other hand, was grinning from ear to ear as she said, "Even though it's the kids' decision, I don't think
it's a bad idea for them to stay here now that I think about it. Although we don't really need them to take care of
US, the house will at least be much livelier with them around."
Once Nicole and Jared had completed their ceremony, they would move out of the family home and to the one next
door. The rest of them had also gotten married and shifted to their respective houses, so it would not be a stretch
to say that the Riddle residence would be rather empty without them here. With Stanley and Tia around, however,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmGloria and Daniel would not be as lonely.
"I think Mrs. Wallace Sr. should move in with US once Stanley and Tia are married. That way, it'll be easier for
everyone to meet each other." Daniel suggested.
However, Mrs. Wallace Sr. waved her hands, begging to disagree. "I'm accustomed to the tranquility and silence
there. I'll just remain in the house at the back. You guys are welcome to pay more frequent visits, though. It's a
walking distance, after all."
While everyone was chatting away, they began discussing future plans. Strangely enough, Tia was starting to feel
less shy and nervous around them.
And when it was almost time to leave, she got up, prepared to send Nolan and Lana to school.
"I'll come with you." Stanley got up and followed after her and the two little ones.
Luna, another caretaker, then came over, brought Mrs. Wallace Sr. to the house at the back, and took care of her.
Nicole and Jared were prepared to leave for work, but the moment they stood up, Gloria said, "Nicole, about Tia’s
arrangements, do you think she feels a weight on her shoulders, and that's why she wants to continue staying
here?"
Gloria genuinely did not wish to deprive Tia of the things she deserved because she genuinely loved Tia.
