Chapter 2843
Jared gently caressed Nicole's hair. Although moments of joy and peace like these made her content, he knew that all of the happiness the Riddle family enjoyed was only possible because of her. Having been through the trenches, she had endured and suffered her fair share of misfortune to make all of this happen. Thankfully, she had gotten what she wanted.
After dinner was over, Benjamin called Sean and Nicole over to the study.
"Grandpa?" Sean asked with some confusion, "Why did you call us here? Is there something going on?"
After casting a glance at Nicole, Benjamin turned his gaze to Sean and nodded. "Yes."
Although she was surprised, Nicole had a vague feeling about what her grandfather was going to discuss. A faint smile crossed her face there and then.
"Grandpa, are you planning to announce this only to the two of us?" Nicole playfully teased.
With a defeated smile, Benjamin replied, "You guessed it."
"Clearly." Nicole grinned.
It was rather obvious, so Nicole had no problem guessing what this was all about. Benjamin had only called them both in, which meant that Benjamin had likely called them in to discuss who the successor of Riddle Corporation was going to be. Benjamin was likely to favor Sean now, or so Nicole hoped.
Sean darted his eyes at Nicole, then back at Benjamin, understanding what was about to unfold.
"Have you made a decision, Grandpa?" Sean inquired.
Seeing that the both of them understood why he had brought them here, Benjamin prefaced the discussion by saying, "I called you here to hear your opinions."
