Chapter 2908
Then, the door swung open.
Seeing that it was Steve, Nicole widened her eyes in shock and squealed. "Steve! What are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be busy today?"
"I'm here too." Sean came in after Steve had stepped in.
"Sean!"
With the two of them coming over together, Nicole arrived at the immediate realization of what they were there for. They must have gotten wind of everything that had happened at home three days ago.
The two men then sauntered over to the couch and sat down, after which Sean asked, "How's the situation?"
"Thankfully, everything has been dealt with," Nicole candidly replied.
Not content with the answer he had just received, he frowned, "Is that all you have to say?"
"Please fill us in on the details. Don't tell me you don't consider us as family anymore just because we haven't been visiting." Steve let out, feeling that he had to say those words to elicit a better response from Nicole.
Hearing this, Nicole sighed, "No, it's just now that everything has been dealt with, there's no sense in telling you anymore.
I don't want you guys to worry."
"At the end of the day, we're still your brothers. You were in danger, and yet you chose not to tell us about it." Steve frowned and rebuked, feeling that he was no longer needed.
With eyes wide and jaw agape, Nicole was dumbfounded." It's precisely because it had been taken care of, that I don't feel the need to tell you guys about it. If I couldn’t settle it on my own, I would have definitely asked the both of you for help."
"It's true that we can't help you with certain things, but given the chance, we wish to share all the burden with you." Sean piled in, his eyes downcast.
The brothers knew full well that Nicole was more knowledgeable than them. While they would not be able to assist her during certain, specific circumstances, they were not content with sitting at the sidelines and watching. If they could, they would like to lend her a helping hand.
"Sean." Nicole sighed, giving her brothers a look of guilt." Please don't say that. I'll tell you guys everything."
Sean was always one who would have his way if he set his mind to it, but for him to tug on Nicole's heartstrings was something he had hardly done before.
