Chapter 2465
Nicole remembered how things were easier for Stanley when Spencer and Samuel were still single.
Jared looked at Nicole, his eyes full of questions. "You feel a lot more stressed out now, don't you?"
"Shouldn't I be off the hook now? I have you, Nolan, and Lana," Nicole replied, her voice tinged with uncertainty.
Jared smirked in reply. "Maybe, but it seems like your parents are even more anxious now, don't you think?"
Nicole shot Jared an annoyed glance, unable to deny that he did have a point. "Let's head home."
Then, she sighed and thought, 'How did I even end up becoming the center of discussion?’
With a warm smile, Jared took Nicole's hand and led her to the car, and after a short drive, they pulled up at the Riddle residence. Nolan and Lana, still awake, were watching TV with Gloria in the living room.
"Mommy!" The kids exclaimed and rushed over as soon as they spotted Nicole and Jared.
Nicole gently tousled their hair. "Still up, huh?"
"We were waiting for you," Nolan said, tilting his head to look up at her. "There was something I didn't understand, and I wanted to ask you about it."
Nicole’s eyes narrowed as she realized Nolan was probably referring to a task on The Hunters.
"Daddy, can you tuck me in?" Lana asked, reaching up for a hug.
