"Yes, we miss you when we can't see you," Gloria affirmed with a smile, her love for Nolan and Lana shining in her eyes.While the kids enjoyed their time with Daniel and Gloria, Nicole and Jared found themselves at a dining room for a late-night snack.As they sat there, Nicole couldn't help but watch the four in the living room, her eyes brimming with warmth. She felt an overwhelming sense of contentment, thinking, 'This kind of family moment is so precious, it's hard not to cherish it.'After a long day, the quiet of the night embraced the Riddle household. Nicole and Jared, having tucked Nolan and Lana into bed, retreated to their own room, the peacefulness of the home enveloping them.Feeling the day's weariness in her muscles, Nicole stretched her neck, trying to ease the tension. Jared, ever attentive, noticed her fatigue and offered a gentle shoulder massage. "If you're tired, you should go to bed early," he suggested with genuine concern in his voice."Mhm." Nicole nodded

Nicole excused herself from lunch with Lulu, saying, "Now that everything seems okay, I'll head back to the office."She had come out of concern for Ellar, but seeing him seemingly alright, she felt it was time to leave."Do you think you can manage the work alone?" Lulu asked Ellar."I'll be fine," Ellar assured with a nod."Just remember, if you need help, have your secretary send the crucial documents to the team," Lulu reminded him as she prepared to leave."Got it," Ellar responded, escorting Nicole and Lulu to the door.Once they were gone, Ellar collapsed onto the couch, a wave of exhaustion washing over him."Sir, these are the documents," his secretary announced, entering with a stack of papers and a bottle of medicine. "Ms. Riddle asked me to give this to you."Holding the medicine, Ellar felt a mix of warmth and guilt.He hated keeping things from Nicole, yet he knew revealing his plans would stop her from letting him proceed. He was trapped between a rock and a har

"Nicole..." Tia looked at her, her eyes filled hesitation, as if to ask, 'Is this really okay?'"I've still got things to handle, and I'm worried I won't make it in time, so I'm actually relieved to leave this in your hands," Nicole explained. She then reassured Tia, "Don't worry, everything's been taken care of."Tia nodded, now understanding the situation.She was aware that lately, Nicole and Jared had been personally picking up Nolan and Lana for the kids' safety. Now that Nicole was entrusting her with this responsibility, and with Nicole's assurance that arrangements were in place, it likely meant someone would be there to ensure Nolan and Lana's safety. So, Tia felt a sense of relief."Okay, I'll make sure to be there early tomorrow morning," Tia said, smiling.She really adored Nolan and Lana and was more than happy to pick them up.Nicole had made these arrangements out of concern.'If someone is actually after me, it's better I keep my distance from the kids,' Nicole t

Nicole paused briefly, weighing her words. "Yes, and I'm going to ensure the news of my presence at the event is openly circulated."It seemed wiser not to conceal her schedule, as transparency might provoke a reaction from the opposing party.Max's comprehension dawned, his complexion turning a shade paler. "Mrs. Johnston, are you really planning to use yourself as bait?"It was evident that exposing Nicole's itinerary now would certainly draw the attention of those figures lurking in the dark.Nicole nodded affirmatively. "Since I'm their target, let them focus on me. It'll keep others out of harm's way."Considering their reluctance to confront her in San Joto, she saw an opportunity to draw them out."But isn't that exceedingly risky?" Max's worry was palpable.Nicole looked toward Jared, her lips curving into a smile. "You wouldn't let anything happen to me, right?""I'll be by your side," Jared stated, his tone solid and resolute.Nicole's expression showed a momentary f

Ellar's tone conveyed his effort to contribute positively to the lunch gathering. "I remembered how much you both liked it last time, so I grabbed it for today," he said.Lulu casually mentioned, "Well, enjoy it while you can. Nicole will be out of the country soon."Ellar's reaction was one of genuine surprise. "Out of the country? Nicole, what's the occasion?""Just some business matters. I'll be back in a few days," Nicole replied, downplaying the significance of her trip.Ellar, not privy to the details, simply nodded in understanding. "Got it."Nicole then shifted the conversation, her gaze intent on Ellar. "Before I go, is there anything you need assistance with?"Ellar, slightly uneasy under Nicole's scrutiny, averted his eyes. "No, everything's fine on my end. You don't need to worry about me, Nicole."Nicole, not entirely convinced, pressed a bit more. "Are you sure about that?"Ellar's vigorous nod seemed to affirm his words. "Really, everything's fine," he reassured
