Chapter 2002
Nicole shifted her gaze to Nolan as if she was asking, 'Is that true?'
Nolan nodded. "Yeah. I've never been around San Joto, so I got curious and asked Godpa to bring me around."
Nicole felt relieved after hearing that. "That's good. I thought that Nolan fell sick or got into some kind of trouble again."
In the past, Nolan had a penchant for asking Lawrence to clean his mess up.
"Don't worry. If there's anything wrong, I would've notified you as soon as possible," Lawrence said with a smile.
"It's getting late. Well go inside now." Nicole said without inviting Lawrence, knowing that did not plan to go in since he had
parked his car outside.
"Sure," Lawrence nodded. "I'll go back now then."
After Lawrence had gotten into his car and moved it aside, he watched as Nicole brought Nolan into Jared's car before it slowly
wheeled into the driveway of the Riddle residence. Then, he saw the trio of Jared, Nicole, and Nolan entering the house together.
Lawrence's dark gaze remained fixed on them as his aura turned cold. While it was true that he had brought Nolan out to play,
they had only decided to spend some time with each other as they could not find Nicole anywhere.
When Nolan called him in secret and told him to pick him up at home, he had no idea what Nolan was planning to do. As it
turned out, Nolan wanted to look for Jared and Nicole together with him, and he even claimed that he would take his mother
away from Jared during their date.
Unfortunately for them, they could not find the couple anywhere. Although Nolan might not be aware of this, Lawrence knew very
well that Jared had made some special arrangements to stop anyone from disrupting their date.
He squinted his cold eyes as the aura around him took on a gloomier form. Tm never going to let her go so easily.'
Inside the house, the living room was filled with noises, with everyone asking Nolan about his day, and with the boy telling them
about his adventure in detail.
"Nolan, just let me know whenever you feel like going out next time. I'll come with you." Samuel patted his chest and said
enthusiastically.
"Yeah. No one knows San Joto better than us," Spencer added.
"Sure," Nolan replied.
He was very much looking forward to that. Even though he had learned a lot about San Joto on the internet previously,
experiencing it in person was a completely different thing altogether.
"Lana, why didn't you tag along?" Nicole asked Lana softly as Jared held her in his arms.
"I wanted to go with Mommy and Daddy." Lana replied, her adorable voice melting everyone's heart.
"Mommy and I will take you out someday, I promise," Jared promptly agreed as he had been thinking about the same thing.
"Thank you, Daddy." Lana was delighted.
When she was in kindergarten, her classmates' parents would take their kids out whenever there was a holiday, and yet, she and
Nolan never had the opportunity to experience that at all. So, it had always been her wish to go out with her parents.
"Oh, you... Haha."
"Don't worry. From now on, you'll always have someone to take you wherever you want to go," Jared finished.
Everyone there was so amused by Lana's innocent words that they could not help but look at her with love and affection.
However, Nicole was the only person feeling a little bitter. She knew exactly what her children were thinking, and it was true that
she was not able to provide them with the warmth of a family when they were living abroad.
Sill, Nolan and Lana were very sensible kids. They had never said anything that would hurt her feelings, but that did not mean
that they did not have any wishes of a proper family
