Chapter 2267
"Grandma, Tia's my family. Don't worry. I'll take good care of her. But you're still energetic and hearty, so there's no need to talk about this yet," Nicole reassured Mrs. Wallace Sr.
"Lovely. That's great." Mrs. Wallace Sr. felt more at ease at Nicole's promise.
They then settled Mrs. Wallace Sr. in her room. Nicole made sure she was comfortable in bed and covered her with a blanket.
After leaving the room, Tia's face was pale. She asked worriedly, "Is she alright, Nicole?"
"She's fine. She's just worried about us." Nicole smiled reassuringly. Mrs. Wallace Sr. was in good shape, so those words were just casual remarks. Nicole did not want Tia to get overly concerned.
Tia seemed relieved at Nicole's explanation. "Oh, I see."
"But you should really think about what she said. Don't you have any guy you like?" Nicole asked meaningfully with her eyebrow raised.
"Nicole, not you too...’ Tia blushed.
"Alright, I won't push it. You should think about it yourself." Nicole smiled and left.
Left alone, Tia stood there, all nervous and flustered.
Nicole went back to the front yard, but everyone else had already returned to their rooms. Seeing the living room empty as well, Nicole headed upstairs to Nolan's room.
Sure enough, Jared was inside with the kids. Nolan was quietly sitting in front of his computer. His serious expression indicated he was focused. Meantime, Lana was pestering Jared to read her a story, so Jared started reading it to her.
Nicole smiled at the sight, feeling warm. "This is the feeling of home, being with my loved ones.'
Jared looked up and saw Nicole. He smiled at her and then continued with his story. Nicole did not interrupt them. She sat beside them and took out a book to read.
