My Wife is a Hacker (Nicole Riddle and Jared) novel Chapter 2821

Chapter 2821

"I'll be with her soon." Stanley answered and walked off.

His statement left Gloria to mutter while pondering aloud," Soon? Well, that's not right. Does that mean...

"Stanley, does that mean you don't have a girlfriend yet?!" Gloria yelled upon realizing what was going on.

'The nerve of that brat! How dare he lie to me? If what he said is true, doesn't that mean that he is still single? Why would he even claim that he has a girlfriend then?' Gloria wondered.

"Mom, let's wait for a tad longer. Perhaps what Stanley was trying to say is that he has someone he likes, but that person hasn't given him a reply." Nicole comforted her mother the instant she saw how sour Gloria's face was.

"That's right. Since Stanley has been honest enough to reveal this much to us, we should definitely give him some time." Daniel replied, echoing Nicole's words. "Say what you want, but the issue with the Jean family hasn't been

resolved yet. We can’t simply set him up on a blind date for him now."

After issuing a sigh, Gloria asked, "What else can I do?"

Indeed, due to the situation they had found themselves in, her hands were tied. At the end of the day, it would not be feasible or reasonable for her to arrange more blind dates for Stanley. In addition to that, Gloria was also curious if the girlfriend whom Stanley was referring to actually existed. And even that aforementioned woman did exist, there were still questions as to what sort of person she was.

'Is it possible that he'll do exactly what Cherry did? I have a hunch. I think he's worried that we'll not accept her if she isn't from a family as affluent as ours.’ Gloria thought.

Gloria frowned as her anxiety began to strike. 'Even if that is really the case, how could Stanley be stupid enough to think that way? When has our family ever cared about status and wealth? When have we ever discriminated?'

"Mom, dad, we're leaving for work now." Nicole and Jared got up together upon noticing that the air had more or less been cleared.

"I'm going to visit the Jean family in a bit," Daniel added, and got up as well.

"I'll come with you." Gloria grabbed Daniel's arm, wanting to accompany him.

However, it was then that Daniel advised, "The issue is a rather complicated one. I should go there on my own."

Daniel was worried that the Jean family might cause a scene if they ended up not reacting well to his visitation, and subsequently, the ensuing discussion. Therefore, he did not want Gloria to be there to bear the brunt of it if and when it happened.

Having understood Daniel's concerns, Gloria smiled. "Nah, it might perhaps be easier for us to maintain a civil discussion with them if I'm there."

Noticing how persistent Gloria was, Daniel was left with no choice but to bring her along with him.
