Jared stood up and said, "I'll accompany you."

With that, he led Nicole and the two children upstairs.

"Grandpa, we mustn't let Raine off the hook this time." Ellar stated, fuming. 'How could someone be so

malicious?'

"Let's wait for the updates," Mr. Riddle Sr. said, gazing out of the window with a meaningful expression

on his face.

Obviously, Raine would be held accountable for her actions.

"Dad, why don't you take a nap for a while?" Daniel suggested.

Managing the guests at the wedding had been exhausting, especially with dignitaries and

acquaintances of significant social standing from all over the city attending. Having to apologize and

explain the situation to the guest after such a terrible incident must have been extremely draining, even

when everyone had joined in to share in that burden.

In response, Mr. Riddle Sr. shook his head and summoned the butler.

As expected, the butler came over and politely asked, "What do you need, Mr. Riddle Sr.?"

"Get the compensation ready for all the guests. We can't just leave them traumatized after they have all

come over to offer their congratulations," Mr. Riddle Sr. instructed.

With a nod, the butler replied, "Certainly. I'll take care of it."

"I'll help with that," Jane said, standing up.

She knew this would not be an easy task.

"Me too," Sally added.

Emma then shot them a glance and said, "I'll join you."

With that said, Emma dragged Ellar and Emery upstairs. Due to the fact that there were so many

guests present, there was a massive load of post-wedding tasks for everyone to handle, including but

not limited to the verification of gifts and by whom they had been given.

After they had left, Mr. Riddle Sr. leaned back against his couch and closed his eyes. He remained

silent. As for whether he was resting or deep in thought, nobody knew. None of his family members Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

disturbed him. All they did was sit around quietly, lost in their own thoughts.

A once joyful wedding had turned into an unfortunate occasion, making it hard for anyone from the

Riddle family to truly enjoy the day.

Concurrently, Nicole and Jared were holding onto Nolan and Lana, who were both fast asleep.

It was evident that they had been traumatized. Even now, as Jared and Nicole were holding them, their

little hands were still holding onto the seams of their parents' clothes as if to get a sense of security.

In the midst of all that silence, Nicole looked down at Nolan, unable to help herself from replaying the

chaotic scene at the wedding. If Jared had arrived just two seconds later, something terrible must have

already happened to Nolan.

"Thank you," Nicole whispered, expressing her gratitude to Jared, for he had saved both Nolan and

her.

She really did not know what she would do if Nolan was gone.

After issuing a sigh, he replied, "Don't worry. I'm here."

His gaze darkened as he understood the depth of Nicole's gratitude. Then, he raised his hand and

caressed her cheek.

A flash of red crossed her vision, and that was when Nicole noticed that Jared had sustained an injury

on his wrist. There, she recalled that Jared had blocked the blow for Nolan, which explained why he

had remained unscathed. Instead, Jared was the one who had gotten hurt.

Nobody had noticed his injury while pandemonium erupted all around. All they could see was him

saving Nolan.

At that time, Jared had suddenly appeared and wrapped Nolan in his arms. He had instinctively kicked

Raine, sending her against the railing, which ultimately led to her plunge down the banister.
