Nicole, however, had an inexplicable feeling of unease in her heart. She could not put a finger on what
was wrong, but she just could not shake the feeling of disquiet within her.
"Let's eat first, and then we'll go upstairs to check." Jared comforted her, as he saw that she looked
somewhat worried.
He thought there was nothing particularly unusual about Nolan's behavior but considering that she had
been taking care of the kid for the past five years, and because she knew the boy better than he did, it
would be in their best interest to give it a look later on.
"Okay." Nicole nodded in agreement, still feeling that it was necessary for them to go up later and see
what was going on.
"Tia, our company has a minor team-building exercise tomorrow. Would you like to join?" June asked.
"Ah? I-I'd rather not." Tia instinctively refused.
Refusing to give up, June continued to persuade Tia. "Most of them are from the previous group of
bridesmaids, whom you've met. There are only a few you've never gotten to know, and those are the
dudes.”
"Wow, can I go then?" Lulu looked at June with anticipation.
After turning to Lulu, June teased, "Are you sure?"
She then gestured at Spencer as she said, 'You've got the guts, don't you? Aren't you afraid of making
Spencer jealous?'
Lulu grinned. "I didn't mean that. I just want to help Tia with some advice."
"But it's just a team-building exercise. Why are you making it sound like some kind of blind date?"
Samuel asked.
"It's not that, but it's important to be cautious when making friends, you know," Lulu said, encouraging
Tia, "Go ahead, Tia. It's always good to make more friends."
"I..." Tia hesitated for a bit.
She really did not want to go, but she also understood everyone's good intentions. In addition, it would
be too impolite for her to decline them outright.
”1 think it's fine. Since we all know each other, why don't we go there together as a group?" Spencer
said and turned to Samuel, signaling to him that he should agree as well.
"I think it's good. There will be even more familiar faces." Lulu nodded, thinking it was a good idea.
Samuel pondered for a moment, after which he said, "Okay."
Seeing that Samuel and Spencer had agreed to show up, Lulu turned to Nicole and asked, "Nicole,
why don't you come too?"
Nicole looked at Tia, and after giving it some thought, she replied, "Alright."
It was evident that Tia was reluctant to go, but she did not want to disappoint everyone. With enough
pressure, she would likely be on board, and if Nicole tagged along, Tia might even feel more at ease.
"Tia, do you still have any concerns?" Lulu looked at Tia as if waiting for an answer.
"In that case, I guess I'll just come along." Tia gave in, and gave Nicole a glance as if to indicate that
she was thankful.
She knew that Nicole rarely participated in such activities and had only agreed to join because of her. Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
After flashing Tia a reassuring smile, Nicole said, "Let's eat."
Everyone quickly ate their dinner, filling the room with gales of laughter and merry conversations,
before leaving for home.
Watching her children happily making plans for tomorrow before going home, Gloria felt somewhat
relieved. "This is what a family should be like."
And indeed, a family home should always be lively and joyful. A simple look at them and how well they
were doing would put a smile on everyone's faces.
"Yeah, you may stop worrying now." Daniel smiled at Gloria.
"They are all doing good, and that's our greatest wish fulfilled," Gloria said, holding onto Daniel's arm
as they went upstairs.
Concurrently, Jared and Nicole had also gone up to the second floor to check on Nolan and Lana.
