By then, Patricia had already knocked and entered Nicole's office.
Seeing that Patricia had returned, Nicole exclaimed in shock, "You're back!"
"Yes." Patricia replied. "Am I retaining my previous job?"
"Sure." Nicole nodded.
Patricia was a little surprised that Nicole did not ask her anything about Ellar. To confirm if she was
seeing it right, she glanced at Nicole once again, only to see that she was busy with her work.
Relieved, she sighed, turned around, and walked away.
What Patricia did not realize was that Nicole had looked up to catch a glimpse of her. The gaze in
Nicole's eyes hinted at her skepticism of her to say the least.
Once Patricia had left, Lulu came barging into the office." Nicole, did Patricia mention anything?"
"No." Nicole shook her head, having not queried Patricia about anything else.
A confused Lulu then proceeded to ask, "Why do I feel that something is wrong with Patricia? When I
asked her about it, she told me there's nothing."
"Don't worry. Patricia knows what she's doing." Nicole replied.
She was very relaxed with the way Patricia handled her affairs.
Unwilling to drop the subject, Lulu issued a sigh and continued, "I just can't help but wonder if the both This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
of them had a conflict. It would be a pity to see them run afoul of each other if that was really the case."
The room fell silent for a moment, and that was when Lulu looked at Nicole and concluded, "But you're
right. We can only show her our concern at most. We are in no position to force anything on them."
To that, Nicole smiled and said, "It's almost time for lunch. You should start ordering."
Nicole did not feel like eating out, so she did not mind grabbing a bite from the comforts of her office.
"Alright. I'll get on it. I'll come over once it's delivered." Lulu nodded and exited the office shortly.
Nicole's gaze returned to the document, and she began to work again thereafter.
When the sun was about to set, Jared and Nicole got off work and brought Nolan and Lana home. As
expected, the two little ones were clamoring to meet Tia as soon as they got home.
"I'll bring them there." Nicole smiled and said to Jared.
Jared nodded and entered the house. Meanwhile, Nicole went onto take Nolan and Lana to the house
at the backyard
where Tia and Mrs. Wallace Sr. resided.
"Nicole? What are you guys doing here?" Tia asked, feeling a little shocked to find the three of them
there.
"How's your leg, Tia?" the little ones asked in concern.
Nicole looked up and saw Mrs. Wallace Sr. who had just stepped out of her room. Knowing what to do,
she grabbed the wheelchair and pushed Mrs. Wallace Sr. to the couch.
"Good evening, great-grandma Wallace!" Nolan and Lana greeted politely.
Smitten by the cuteness of the kids, Mrs. Wallace Sr. replied dotingly, "Hey, good evening my dears."
As Nicole had brought Nolan and Lana to Mrs. Wallace Sr.'s place, the room roared to life at once, with
all of them chatting and laughing to their heart's content.
"Why don't you guys stick around for dinner tonight?" Mrs. Wallace Sr. suggested.
Nicole then shot Tia a glance and replied, "Sure."
Considering the fact that Tia was in no condition to move about, it would not be convenient for her to go
all the way to the main part of the Riddle residence, so Nicole decided to stay put and have dinner with
them.
While they were all eating, Mrs. Wallace Sr. asked Nicole, "I heard Stanley's girlfriend, Cherry, is
leaving. Is that true?"
"Grandma, she has never been Stanley's girlfriend." Nicole explained, "This entire situation is pretty
simple. Stanley has been helping Cherry out. Now that she's leaving, everything will be coming to an
end."
