Nicole furrowed her eyebrows. 'I thought Stanley had genuine feelings for Tia, but he agreed to go on
blind dates. Could it be that we all misunderstood his intentions before?'
Jared caressed Nicole's hair gently. "Don't think too much. He's not a child anymore. He can think for
himself."
Nicole nodded, immediately understanding what Jared meant. No matter how much effort anyone put
in, the final decision had to be made by Stanley himself.
When Nicole and Jared reached their room, Nicole massaged her shoulders, looking completely
haggard.
Jared sat next to her with a concerned expression. "Has work been too hectic for you recently?"
'She looks so burnt out. Could it be the workload that's affecting her?' thought Jared.
"It's okay," said Nicole. She bit her lip hard trying not to show how stressful work was for her.
Jared gave her a massage, trying to help her unwind.
"Come, let's sleep,” said Jared with concern in his voice.
Eyes half closed, Nicole agreed. Jared looked over at Nicole and noticed she was already fast asleep.
He glanced at her, feeling troubled at how helpless he was in the situation. He tucked the blanket over
Nicole.
The next day, the sun was shining, and the Riddle family was already up.
Nicole and Jared were preparing to send the twins off to kindergarten but were unexpectedly warded
off. They insisted on having Tia send them instead.
Nicole furrowed her eyebrows, staring at the twins blankly. She noticed the twins were avoiding eye
contact with her. Immediately she knew that they were up to no good.
"Okay," Jared agreed. He turned to Albert and asked him to get Tia.
After a while, Tia appeared with a confused expression. "Mr. Johnston, what can I do for you?"
"The twins want you to send them to kindergarten today. What do you say?" asked Jared quietly.
Tia was taken aback. "Me?!"
"Aunt Tia, we like how you always send us and pick us up at kindergarten! Can you send us?" Lana
persuaded cutely, taking Tia's hands into hers.
Tia looked at Lana and agreed. "Of course I'm willing to but... If
She paused and looked at Nicole, unsure of why Nicole and Jared would suddenly ask her for a favor.
"If you want to, we'll give you some overtime pay,” said Jared.
"No, no, it's okay," Tia refused, shaking her head. She loved
the twins. She would not mind this.
"I know you really want to help out and giving you some overtime pay is really no issue. So you have to
accept it, no matter what," said Nicole with a smile.
"Come on. Let's go," Lana interrupted as she pulled Tia toward the door.
Tia followed behind the twins. TH talk to Ms. Nicole later,' she thought to herself.
After the twins had left, Nicole turned around and looked at Jared with raised eyebrows. "Are you
helping them?"
"Yeah," Jared said coolly. He intertwined their hands together, walking out the front door and into the
car.
