Chapter 2740
"Come on, guys. It’s still too early," Nicole said helplessly.
There was little point in them rushing to preschool this early. Even if they did, the teachers would likely not be there yet.
"It's not early. By the time we get there, our classmates will have been there already." Lana argued, feeling rather impatient.
Nicole smiled and patted Lana's head gently. "It's really too early. Let's have breakfast first. And then, we'll go to school, okay?"
"Okay," Nolan and Lana agreed, and reached for the remote to turn the TV on.
They wanted to watch something for a while to pass the time.
At first, there was some news about current political affairs, but as the children could not understand anything about the subject, they switched to the entertainment channel. All of a sudden, Stanley's figure appeared, on the screen, and right before their eyes.
"It's Uncle Stanley!" the two kids shouted in surprise as they stared at the screen.
The voice of the anchor then emanated from the TV," Yesterday, Stanley Riddle, the third son of Daniel Riddle, met his future father-in-law at a hotel. It seems that more good news is just around the corner..."
"Mommy, what's going on?" Nolan and Lana asked in confusion.
While they understood a little of what was going on, they could grasp the full gravity of what they just heard. 'Is Uncle Stanley getting married? But why is nothing happening at home?’
Nicole was also surprised. She did not know that Stanley had gone out last night to discuss marriage plans. 'Is he not planning to discuss it with the family first?'
"Were they talking about Stanley?" Gloria and Daniel approached them, having overheard the news.
"Mom, well... let Stanley explain it to you." Nicole said.
She was feeling uneasy, and was not in the least aware of what was going on either.
"An explanation? What are you talking about?" Stanley asked.
