There, Nicole learned the reason as to why Mrs. Wallace Sr. was not planning to attend the wedding;

she was not feeling well at all.

Nicole furrowed her brows and replied, "You should go ahead. I'll check on grandma."

However, Stanley suddenly reached out to grab Nicole by the shoulder. "Don't go now. Tia said

grandma just went to sleep. Let's wait until we're back."

"Fine. After the wedding, I'll go check and check on her again." Nicole decided after a moment of

consideration.

"Alright, let's head to the wedding then," Stanley said as he walked Nicole toward the exit.

Raising a brow in skepticism, Nicole looked at Stanley and asked, "You were planning to say

something if Tia had agreed to come with you, weren't you?"

Stanley shook his head. "It's not the right time yet."

Taken aback, Nicole asked, "What are you up to, exactly?"

"You'll know when the time comes." Stanley replied in brief, still refusing to reveal the truth.

Nicole rolled her eyes at Stanley. "Fine. Keep your secrets."

In turn, Stanley flashed her a smile without saying another word.

Meanwhile, everyone had already entered their cars, ready to make their way to the venue.

Nicole made a beeline for Jared's car, and upon opening the door, she was surprised to find him inside.

"You're coming too?!"

"Mommy, why can't Daddy go?" Lana asked in confusion.

Taken aback, Nicole froze and remained rooted on the spot until Jared reached out and pulled her into

the car. "It's okay. It

As the car started moving, Nicole settled down comfortably. If Jared was certain that his presence there

would not be a problem, then it would not be.

In truth, Emery's wedding was a rather humble one by the standards of a family as affluent as the

Riddles. Emma had not organized a ceremony grand enough to capture the attention of the entire city.

After all, Emery was the odd one out in that branch of the family. He had followed his own interests and

started a gaming company, with little to no involvement with BayCorp at all. Therefore, there were not

many business magnates and tycoons in their list of guests, just some of Emery's business partners. At

most, the list was expanded to include a few close friends of the Riddle family, so there was no need

for them to worry about the news of Jared's appearance leaking out and torpedoing the ruse that he

had meticulously planned out.

Nicole believed that everyone would be sensible enough to know what to say and what not to say at

this time.

The journey was smooth, and in no time, they arrived at the hotel.

As everyone began to get out of their cars, Nicole hesitated.

"What's wrong?" Jared asked softly.

Frowning, Nicole suggested, "Maybe you should cover your face a little."

She then grabbed a hat and looked at Jared before shaking her head in disapproval. "This one doesn't

seem to fit you."

After that, she grabbed a pair of shades, mumbling, "How about these?"

However, people might still be able to recognize him even if he donned those shades. His appearance

was too distinctive, and he would just stick out like a sore thumb.

Jared smiled, placed the hat and shades away, and said," Don't worry. None of these are necessary."

"Daddy, are you hiding from your enemies?" Lana asked out of curiosity.

She had been confused ever since Nicole was caught off guard by Jared's appearance in the car.

'Mommy's so strange. Uncle Emery is getting married, so Daddy obviously has to go! Why were you so

surprised, Mommy?'

Then, she came to understand what the situation was all about. 'It would be ideal for Daddy to not

show up in public. That's why Mommy was worried about him.' Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Amused by Lana's words, Jared carried her out of the car and said, "No. Let's go inside."

"Hey!" Nicole called out to him as she watched him carrying Lana away.

"Mrs. Johnston," Max interrupted. "Mr. Johnston has already made all the necessary arrangements. No

one will leak the news today."

As it turned out, he had planned ahead to ensure that there was no chance for anyone to tell others

that he was here today.
