Chapter 3019
Benjamin understood that everyone had come back today because of Everett's situation. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
"These issues can't shake me anymore," he reflected, knowing that each person must take
responsibility fortheir actions.
"Okay, we understand," Nicole responded.
"You can go now. I'd like to be alone for a while," Benjamin indicated to Nicole and Jared.
"Grandpa..." Nicole looked at Benjamin with some concern.
"It's fine, go ahead," Benjamin reassured her with a wave of his hand.
Hesitating, Nicole bit her lip and then said, "I'll have the butler bring up some tea."
She was uneasy about leaving her grandfather alone and thought it best to have the butler keep him
company.
Jared patted Nicole's shoulder, "Let's go."
As Nicole left the study, Jared paused, turning to Benjamin," Grandpa, I will protect her. She won't
come to any harm."
Benjamin nodded in approval, "Good, I believe you."
Jared left the study, his eyes reflecting a deep resolve. He could tell that Benjamin was more worried
about Nicole.
After leaving the study, Nicole and Jared went downstairs.
"Where's Grandpa?" Daniel asked, noticing Benjamin hadn't come down.
"He said he wanted to be alone for a while," Nicole replied, then turned to the butler, "Please take a cup
of tea to Grandpa."
"Yes," the butler agreed, preparing to do so.
Lulu asked Nicole with some concern, "Is Grandpa okay?"
"He's fine," Nicole shook her head, reassuring everyone, " Let's all head back for now."
"Alright," everyone agreed, though they were still a bit worried. At this time, leaving seemed the only
option.
"Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on things here," Dillon assured everyone as they prepared to leave.
"Alright, I'll come by again tomorrow," Daniel said, accepting the situation.
"Yeah, I'll be here too," Dexter added.
Everyone gradually left the old house, heading towards their cars, ready to leave.
Nicole, see you at the company tomorrow," Lulu said as she and Nicole said their goodbyes. Lulu then
pulled Spencer along with her into the car.
"I can't believe it. Everett dares to come back," Spencer muttered in disbelief.
Lulu replied with a grimace, "You have no idea how shocked
I was when I saw Everett."
"I can imagine," Spencer nodded. If he were in Lulu's shoes, he’d be just as stunned.
"Ah, his return at this time, it's clear he's up to no good," Lulu said, frustrated.
"Don't be upset, let's just head home," Spencer comforted her, patting her hand.
Sighing, Lulu leaned back in her seat.
After saying goodbye to the family, Spencer started the car and left.
One by one, everyone got into their cars and drove away from the old house.
In the car, Nicole comforted a worried Nolan and Lana, "It's okay, these are just minor issues, Daddy
and Mommy can handle them."
"Yeah," Nolan and Lana nodded, but still clung tightly to Nicole.
Jared took Lana into his arms, "It's just work stuff, Daddy and Mommy can handle it."
Really? Just work?" Lana asked, half-convinced.
Though they didn't know the specifics, they could sense the heavy mood of the adults.
"Yes," Jared's voice softened.
Nicole also reassured Nolan and Lana, "Don't worry, you have Daddy and Mommy here."
After speaking, Nicole looked up at Jared and smiled.
