Early morning.
Nicole was in a daze when she heard someone knocking on the door and other voices calling her.
She thought that she was hallucinating.
After all, no one in the Stanton family would disturb her in the midst of a good dream.
It must be an illusion!
However, the knock on the door was incessant, and there seemed to be the sound of claws scratching the door.
Nicole could not stand it anymore and sat up. When she listened carefully, she realized that it was not an illusion.
She walked barefoot on the carpet and opened the door. Tigger fell into the room at once.
Tigger was round like a fat little piglet.
It looked like a little piglet in tiger fur.
Nicole wrinkled her eyebrows and glared at it deliberately.
"Tigger, don't think I'll let you off the hook just because you’re cute!"
Tigger rolled on the ground twice and went to bite on
Nicole's nightgown aggrievedly.
"You're the most beautiful Mama in the world! Your brother, Grant, asked me to come over to wake you up!”
Nicole frowned. As soon as she looked up, she saw Grant walking over with a glass of milk, drinking it while looking at her.
"You're finally awake! I thought you passed out..."
Nicole stared at Grant. "I told you that I'm on vacation today! Why are you waking me up so early?"
Grant lifted his hand and looked at his watch.
"It's already 10:00 am. That's not considered early. Dad has come back from fishing twice already...”
Nicole was speechless as she stared at him. 'How can a man understand what beauty sleep means?
Grant pursed his lips and raised his eyebrows. There was a hint of helplessness on his exquisite face.
"Well, you should go downstairs and see the person who's been standing at the door all night."
A trace of bewilderment flashed across Nicole’s face, which then stiffened.
Her heart thudded when she suddenly realized something. Then, she rushed out.
