Chapter 2379
"These little rascals really gave me a hard time worrying about them, but thank God, they're all grown up now," Gloria said as she looked at her sons, her gaze finally falling on Stanley.
'Sean and Steve have already gotten married, and now Spencer and Samuel are about to start their families as well. Stanley is the only one left. Why hasn't he found a girlfriend yet? Is it possible that he has neglected his love life because he has been too focused on his work?' she wondered.
Sensing that his mother was scrutinizing him, Stanley felt a sense of pressure weighing down on him at once. He subconsciously avoided her gaze and lowered his head as he continued eating in an attempt to minimize his presence in the dining hall.
He knew very well that he had Spencer and Samuel to face the music with him in the past, but now, he was all alone. This meant that he would be the only one left to deal with the pressure of getting soon. This had been foreseen long ago.
"Mom, Stanley will find happiness too," Nicole stated, trying to ease the situation for him.
Stanley shot her a grateful look, for he was truly worried that Gloria would start pressuring him to get married right now.
Gloria turned to Nicole and agreed, "Alright, let's not rush
Stanley for now. Let's talk about you.”
Hearing that, Nicole's lips began to twitch. 'Did I just dig a grave for herself? Can I take back what I just said?'
"Mom, Spencer and I haven't even had our wedding yet. Don't you have too much on your plate already?" Samuel reminded Gloria.
He thought Gloria would already be content planning both the weddings for him and June, as well as Spencer and Lulu. 'Why is she already worrying about those who aren't about to get married?'
Hearing that, Gloria gave Samuel a stern look and said, "I don’t even think I've had enough with the both of you getting married at the same time."
"Please, Mom. We'll be worried about you too. Besides, if you keep pushing like this, some people might develop a fear of marriage. Wouldn't that give you even more of a headache?" Samuel gestured toward Stanley with his mouth, shifting all the attention to Stanley again.
'Stanley is dealing with this all on his own now, I guess,' Samuel thought.
It was then that Stanley shot a fierce glare at Samuel, his eyes carrying a hint of fury and frustration.
Samuel innocently shrugged, indicating he was also helpless in the face of it all. After all, Gloria was nothing short of intimidating whenever she decided to exercise her power.
