Chapter 2958
After a moment of hesitation, Stanley said, "Shouldn't we tell Mom and Dad? If this keeps
up, they’re going to find out eventually."
"Let's try to keep it from them as long as we can," Nicole sighed.
Nicole was determined to control the situation as much as possible, hoping to avoid
causing unnecessary alarm to the family.
Stanley glanced at Nicole and whispered, "If there's anything we need to do, just let us
know."
"Okay," Nicole replied with a smile, nodding in agreement.
She knew that 'us' included not only Stanley and Tia but also other family members. If
needed, Daniel, Gloria, Benjamin, and her uncles were all ready to help.
"I'm going to the backyard," Stanley said, nodding before he turned and left.

a hurry to marry, but maybe it’s better if they do it sooner."
Nicole returned to the couch and smiled, "Maybe they're enjoying things as they are now."
"Let them be. Besides, even if they want to get married, they probably won't be ready
until next year," Daniel reassured
Gloria.
"That's fine. We can't rush the wedding and mustn't shortchange Tia," Gloria mused.
"Let's go, it's getting late. Time to rest," Daniel stood up.
"Yes, it's been a tiring day. We chatted for a long time with the kids around this afternoon,"
Nicole noted.
After her parents went upstairs, Nicole turned to Jared and suggested, "Let's go up too."
Taking her hand, Jared replied, "Let's check on Nolan and Lana."
The two kids had run upstairs after dinner, and Jared and Nicole wondered what they were
up to.
After heading upstairs, Nicole and Jared went to Nolan's room.
They saw Nolan engrossed in his computer, with Lana watching curiously beside him.
Nicole was slightly puzzled.
Upon closer inspection, they realized Nolan was on a mission again, and Lana, unusually
curious, was following along.
"Do you understand what you're seeing?" Jared asked Lana, ruffling her hair.
Lana shook her head. "I don't, but Nolan will explain it to me."
Indeed, she didn't understand, but with Nolan explaining, she could grasp some of it.
"Do you want to learn?" Jared probed.
Lana shook her head again. "No, I don't think I have that kind of talent. But I feel it's okay
to learn a little, so I watch with Nolan."

Jared picked up Lana and said, "You don't have to force yourself."
If Lana wasn't interested, she didn't need to delve into it. She could always get help when
needed, and she might not even need to know about these things in the future.
"But I want to help," Lana said, wrapping her arms around Jared. "If it weren't for Nolan
today, we wouldn't have had anywhere to hide, and something bad might have
happened."
She felt she was only being protected by Nolan and wished she could help too.
Jared smiled and reassured her, “You already did help."
Lana had managed to stay calm and follow Nolan's lead without panicking or getting
scared during the danger. That was already beyond their expectation.
"Really?" Lana asked, looking up in surprise.
She wondered if she had really been helpful without doing much.
"Yes," Jared assured her, pinching her nose. "Knowing to follow Nolan and staying calm in
the face of danger are ways of helping. You and Nolan both did well and were very brave."
Hearing this, Lana nodded vigorously. "I understand. I'll be even braver in the future."
"Good," Jared said, carrying Lana to play elsewhere.
