Chapter 2161

Jane also nodded in approval and her eyes were filled with joy. She genuinely found Nicole likable as well.

The whole family had their meal happily. The sound of chatter and laughter filled the room.

Stanley was the only one who was eating alone, in silence and with his head down. One would wonder what he was thinking about, or if he was just focused on eating his dinner.

“Stanley, both Spencer and Samuel have their own girlfriends already. Isn’t it time you put some thought into your personal life? You can’t get left behind,” Nicole teased, raising an eyebrow at Stanley.

Stanley replied calmly, “If Mom wants a daughter in law, Spencer and Samuel will give her one soon. If she wants grandchildren, she can ask Sean and Steve. There’s no rush for me.”

Nicole could not help but roll her eyes at Stanley. “That’s their business. It has nothing to do with you.”

Then, she thought, ‘When did this become a checklist?

They’re really treating it like a task from Mom.1 “Stanley, I think you should hurry up. Who knows, you might be the first one among us to raise kids,”

Sean added calmly. If it was about having kids, Sean would not have the energy for it at the moment.

So, it was better not to expect anything from him.

As soon as he finished speaking, Sean looked at Jane. She had expressed her intention in prioritizing work first.

Therefore, they were not in a rush to build a family.

Especially with the current situation of the Riddle family, Sean and Jane were not in the right state to consider this matter. Perhaps, they would have to wait till everything was settled.

Steve echoed his brother. “That’s right. Whether I want to have kids or not, it’s up to me. You only have to worry about yourself.”

Internally, he thought, ‘You don’t even have a girlfriend yet. Quit being so cocky here.’

Unexpectedly, the room then heard Sally’s voice. “Actually, if we could have kids like Nolan and Lana, it’d be a dream.”

While speaking, Sally’s gaze landed on Nolan and Lana.

She had heard Steve mention these two kids before. They were indeed the product of Jared and Nicole. In fact, they inherited their parents’ good genes. The both of them were not only smart and cute, but also good looking.

If Sally could have such cute babies, her life would be complete.

“Steve.” Stanley turned to Steve with a wide smile and raised his eyebrows. It was as if he was trying to say that the duty was in Steve’s hands.

Steve glared at Stanley unhappily. But as he turned his gaze to Sally, he softened his gaze. “As long as our future kids take after you, they’d definitely be beautiful.”

A reddish shade formed on Sally’s cheeks. She replied shyly, “Nonsense.”

‘There are so many people around, this is so embarrassing,’ she thought.

Steve did not care about those around him. He said confidently, “I’m telling the truth!”

“Stop it!” Sally blushed. So, she quickly served some food to him in hopes of shutting his mouth.

“Sally, he’s spitting facts.” Jane joked with a smile on her face. That made Sally even more embarrassed.

Looking at how the Riddle family were gathering and getting along with one another harmoniously, Lulu and June glanced at each other. They unconsciously felt relieved.

Although they had experienced being around the Riddle family in the past, their status was different.

This was the first time they were invited as a plus one. Furthermore, they were there to attend a family banquet. They were both filled anxiety.

But now, they seemed to be calmer. In fact, they yearned for such an atmosphere.

Noticing Lulu and June’s expressions, Nicole smiled a little bit. So, the reason they did not want to make things official was not because of relationship problems. In fact, one could tell that they were close with each other.

Lulu felt that she should become a better person, so that she could proudly stand next to her husband.
