Chapter 3089
"Back already?" Daniel and Gloria beamed with affection at their grandchildren.
Nicole and Jared took their seats, explaining, "We had some free time today, so we decided to pick them up.”
"It's good to see you both have the energy to do that. It seems like Riddle Corporation must be doing alright now," Daniel remarked, relieved.
The past few days had been hectic for both Nicole and Jared, but now that they had some time to relax, it seemed like their problems had been resolved.
"Yes, now we're just waiting for the penalty notice for NandoCorp," Nicole said calmly, with a smile.
Gloria responded with a hint of resignation, "Let the penalty come if it must, as long as the issue is resolved."
"Mom, actually, the penalty is a good thing," Nicole reassured her with a smile.
"I might not be involved in the company matters, and I really don't understand, but how can a penalty be a good thing?" Gloria asked, frowning slightly in confusion.
"Let's not talk about work now. You don't understand these things, and you won’t believe the children when they say it's alright," Daniel intervened, suggesting they drop the subject now that work was over to give everyone a break.
"You were the one who asked just now," Gloria couldn't help but give Daniel a playful look.
"Alright, my fault. Let's all not ask anymore," Daniel quickly conceded.
Laughter filled the living room, soon followed by a curious voice, "What's going on? Why the good mood?"
They turned to see Stanley entering.
"Nothing much, just chatting," Daniel greeted Stanley. "Now that you're here, let's have dinner."
"Oh, okay," Stanley replied, not pressing further.
