After signing off, Nolan stepped away from the computer desk. Catching Nicole's gaze, he said somewhat awkwardly, "I'm going to take a shower."

"Sure thing," Nicole replied with a smile, finding her son's sudden bashfulness endearing.

Once Nolan had finished his shower and climbed into bed, Nicole made sure he was tucked in before switching off the light and leaving the room.

Lying in bed, Nolan gazed into the darkness of his room. His eyes, glimmering faintly in the dimness, held a whirlwind of emotions that gradually settled into peace. There were many things he didn't fully understand yet, but he found solace in knowing that his mother was always there for him, and in that, her decisions were his as well.

"Sir, Nolan has logged off," Ian murmured softly, breaking the silence that had enveloped Lawrence.

Snapped back to reality, Lawrence glanced at Ian. "You can go now."

Lawrence leaned back in his chair, his expression turning more contemplative.

He felt somewhat taken aback by Nolan's message of gratitude, but the polite yet distant tone stung. It seemed that things truly couldn't go back to

His gaze hardened as he thought of Everett. 'He's achieved nothing since his return. Perhaps it's time to offer him some assistance.'
