Chapter 1228
"Hmm, it's pretty good." Gloria said after taking a bite, and when she looked at everyone at the table, all of them burst out laughing at once.
"Nicole, how long have you been engaged?" Gloria asked.
"A few months, I believe?" Nicole answered as she ate.
"Oh, doesn't Jared have a plan?" Gloria continued ask her.
"Plan? What do you mean?" Nicole stopped eating and looked at Gloria.
Gloria rolled her eyes at Nicole. "You silly girl, why are you so dense when it comes to matters like these? What I'm trying to ask is, when are you planning to get married?"
Everyone at the table fell silent when Gloria shot her that question, and they turned their attention to Nicole at once.
Nicole's face flushed. 'Weren't we eating? Why are they asking me about marriage now?’
"Mom, why are you asking me this all of a sudden?" Nicole felt embarrassed and stopped eating. How could she talk about this in front of everyone?'
"Don't overthink it. I'm just worried about you. I can see that you're doing well with Jared, and that's why I asked you if you've got any plans to get married. If you do, your dad and I will see if there's anything we can do to help you out," Gloria gently explained as she wanted to help Nicole as much as she could.
"Mom, Dad, please don't stress yourselves out. You don't have to worry about us. We know that you're doing this for US, but we have our own things to deal with. We'll talk about marriage once we're done with our work. Don't worry about it." Nicole replied.
She did not object to the idea, and had just told them the truth of what she thought. They might even get married right after they were done with their busy lives, and as such, it was something that he would have trouble predicting.
"Okay, I know. I'm not rushing you. Your dad and I just want you to be happy. ’ Gloria looked at Nicole earnestly and stroked her daughter's hair.
"I know."
"Eat up, the food's getting cold," Daniel reminded them.
Nicole smiled at him.
After their meal, they went to hang out on the couch again, and that was when Nicole looked at Samuel and Spencer and whispered, "How are things with Lulu and June? Which stage are you at now?"
"What do you mean 'which stage'? Gosh, you're so nosy!" Samuel rolled his eyes at her as he did not want to talk about it, but Spencer's cheeks turned red at once.
Nicole immediately knew what was going on and smirked. 'Seems like a lot of things had happened when I wasn't around.'
Suddenly, she took on a more serious tone and said, "You should really lay the games off and spend more time with your friends when you have the time. Go outside more often. It's not really good to stay at home and play games all the time."
