"So that's the case." Mrs. Wallace Sr. stole a glance at Tia, as if she was relieved to hear that. Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

"Grandma, what made you think of it all of a sudden?" Nicole asked, having noticed Mrs. Wallace Sr. 's

discreet gaze.

"Nothing. It's just a random thought." Mrs. Wallace Sr. smiled and changed the topic of conversation.

In truth, however, she was a little worried. She had actually seen Stanley sending Tia home, so she

was concerned about the dynamics of their relationship. Mrs. Wallace Sr. had even attempted to

remind Tia about the matter, but all she got in exchange was a piece of information which meant

nothing out of context: Cherry was leaving. Other than that, Tia had not mentioned anything else.

Now that Mrs. Wallace Sr. understood the situation in its entirety, her worries began to fade.

After Mrs. Wallace Sr. had spoken, she snuck another glance at Tia. This time however, her gaze was

brimming with pity and concern.

Sensing the old woman's gaze, Tia lowered her head in a hurry. She was petrified, unable to look Mrs.

Wallace Sr. in the eyes.

It was then that Nicole looked at Tia and smiled. "Stanley did say that he will explain everything to the

family once

Cherry has left."

All of a sudden, a clank resounded in the room. Tia's hands were shaking, and as it turned out, she had

dropped the fork she was holding onto, as well as the piece of vegetable skewered on it. Her face was

also bright red in embarrassment.

"What happened?" Nicole asked in a soft voice as she looked at Tia with concern.

"Nothing." Tia brushed it off, trying very hard to appear calm, and proceeded to skewer another piece of

vegetable.

She was stunned for a moment there, and was unable to pinpoint the reason for her reaction. All she

felt was a surge of nervousness when she heard that Stanley was going to explain the situation to his

family and put the saga behind him once and for all.

Nicole smirked. She was very curious as to how Stanley would explain the truth to his entire family. In

fact, she was already beginning to wonder how much he was prepared to reveal. Then, there was also

the question of whether his explanation would include Tia's role in all of this, or if he would just stick to

addressing his deal with Cherry.

After dinner, Nicole brought Nolan and Lana back to the main section of Riddle residence.

By the time they had reached Nolan's room, it was already late. Due to this, Nicole did not give him any

playtime.

Instead, she read her kids bedtime stories and tucked them in bed right away.

Once the little ones were asleep, Nicole returned to her room.

There, Jared was sitting in front of the study table. In a rare instance, he was not using his computer for

once. Instead, he was reading a book.

With a smile on her face, she walked up to Jared. "Why are you reading today?"

"Nothing." Jared placed the book down and turned to look at Nicole. "Nolan and Lana are asleep

already?"

"Yes." Nicole nodded. "We stayed for quite a while at grandma's place. When we came back, they were

complaining they were tired. So, I read a couple of stories to them and tucked them in bed. They’re fast

asleep already."

Jared then stood up and grabbed Nicole's hands, "It's getting late. Let's get some shuteye early

tonight."

"Okay." Nicole replied.

After lying down in bed, the both of them cuddled for a moment and drifted off to sleep.

The night progressed, tranquil and silent as the moon shone and the stars twinkled in the sable,

cloudless sky.

In the blink of an eye, two days passed without much incident.

On the morning of the third day, the entire family was having breakfast together as usual. However,

there was something inexplicably odd about the mood in the dining hall, one borne out of tension and

uncertainty.

"Stanley, do you have something to tell us?" Gloria questioned, unable to hold it in any longer.

"Let's wait a little longer," he replied, bowed his head, and continued eating.

'God damn it! He's a slippery one, isn't he!? Oh, I know what he's trying to do! He's trying to stall. Well,

I'll have him know that he's not stepping out of the house before he tells me what's going on,' Gloria

fumed.

After a while, Tia came over to pick Nolan and Lana up for school.
