Chapter 2389
"Nolan, you play by yourself. I'm going back to my room." Lana put away the building blocks and went over to Nicole's side, intending to leave with her.
Nolan restarted the computer, remembering Nicole's words. He behaved as though nothing had happened. After receiving a simple task, he got busy.
Nicole and Jared left Nolan's room with Lana. The young girl pouted and did not want to go back to her room alone. She wanted to go to Nicole's room.
However, Nicole saw right through her daughter. "You little troublemaker, you won't be of any help here. If you're bored, you can ask Grandma or Uncle to keep you company, okay?"
Nicole did not want either Nolan or Lana to get involved in the matter concerning Lawrence. Also, there was no conclusion on this matter yet, and she did not want the children to develop any negative feelings toward Lawrence.
Lana pouted unhappily but knew that her mother would not give in, so she sought help from father.
Jared smiled as he lifted Lana up. "Lana, if you don't want Grandma or Uncle to keep you company, how about Daddy?"
Lana knew that Daddy would not help her this time, so she kicked her little legs playfully to indicate that she wanted to be put down.
Jared released her and placed her back on the ground.
Lana raised her small head and said, "No, thanks. I can manage on my own. Mommy and Daddy can go back."
With that, Lana turned and toddled toward her own room.
Nicole chuckled and shook her head. After watching Lana enter her room, she turned back to her own.
She sighed softly. The Five Crests were indeed irresistible. Even Lawrence had started paying attention to it, resorting to such means.
