Chapter 2085
Soon, the maids had prepared dinner, and Nicole and Jared started to eat.
"What were they doing? Why did they skip their meal?" Gloria whispered to Daniel, her eyes filling with concern as she wondered if something had happened to the couple.
"Don't worry. The kids know what they're doing." Daniel, on the other hand, felt that since Jared and Nicole had not mentioned anything, they should not pry. He trusted that they could handle it themselves.
Gloria glanced at them and still felt uneasy. At the same time, looking at them eating in harmony, she could not bear to disturb them. So she gave up on asking them.
"Don't worry, Grandma. Mommy is super awesome! She’ll be fine," Lana reassured Gloria. In Lana's heart, she felt Jared looked impressive and powerful too.
"Even if she really has something going on, Godpa would help Mommy too," Nolan chimed in, taking the opportunity to earn brownie points for Lawrence. Otherwise, Lawrence would not stand a chance against Jared.
Daniel and Gloria exchanged glances. They noticed earlier that Nolan called Jared 'Uncle', and it felt a little awkward. They thought they should take some time to teach the child, but this seemed like a different case.
'It seems like Nolan doesn't want to accept Jared,' Gloria mouthed.
'Maybe that's normal? Since Jared wasn't there when he grew up,' Daniel mouthed back.
'How's this normal? Why don't you look at Lana? She's extremely close with Jared,' Gloria responded.
In a few glances, Daniel and Gloria exchanged thoughts and reached a consensus. They both looked at Nolan.
Nolan seemed to be very resistant to Jared. Even though Jared was not there during his childhood, Nolan had been back for quite some time. He should be familiar with Jared already. Yet, it was odd that the boy still rejected Jared like this. They wondered if it was because of Lawrence.
