Chapter 2175

Staring at Nicole, Lawrence felt a deep pain in his heart, and his eyes revealed a faint hint of sadness.

Nicole’s eyebrows furrowed slightly. She did not know if she should explain anything at this moment.

After all, she and Jared had not really planned to have a wedding. But if this would make Lawrence realize that they could only be friends, she chose to remain silent.

Nolan seemed to sense Lawrence’s burden and came to his rescue. “Why don’t you come and play games with me, God pa?”

“Oh, sure.” Lawrence agreed and went to Nolan’s side, playing games with him.

But because his mind was elsewhere, he quickly lost each round. Similarly, Nolan suffered the same fate and quickly got defeated as well.

“Godpa, you need to concentrate,” Nolan said helplessly.

“Sorry.” Lawrence patted Nolan’s head, feeling a bit embarrassed.

It was not that he did not want to concentrate, but his mind was truly in turmoil, making it impossible to focus.

Putting down the game controller, Nolan sighed and lowered his voice to a whisper. “Godpa, you can’t just give up like that.”

Lawrence glanced at Nolan and smiled faintly. Obviously, he would not give needed some time to digest it.

He had been persistent for five years. How could he easily let go now?

“Godpa, will you come to the wedding?” Lana asked curiously, blinking her big eyes.

Lawrence looked at Lana and smiled faintly. “That depends on your mother, whether she’s inviting me or not.”

“Of course she’ll invite you. Godpa, you’re an important person to us,” Lana said. Although she was not as close to him as her brother was, she knew that Lawrence was important and special to them.

The only difference was that in her heart, Lawrence could only be her godfather and could never replace her father, especially since she had found her real father, who could not be replaced by anyone.

“Okay, then I’ll definitely come,” Lawrence agreed before turning his gaze to Nicole. “Has the date been set?”

“No, not yet.” Nicole did not expect Lawrence to ask this, so she could only answer vaguely.

But in reality, they had yet to decide on whether the wedding would even happen or not.

However, seeing Lawrence accept it so calmly, Nicole thought that Lawrence had finally understood, so she did not explain further. She thought it was fine this way.

“Play with the kids for now. I’ll go prepare lunch.” Lawrence then got up and left.

Nicole watched Lawrence’s figure. She could not explain why, but she felt like Lawrence had suddenly become unreadable to her.

“Mommy, I think you should seriously consider it. Daddy’s a good man, and he’s devoted to you. Don’t lose him,” Lana urged, blinking her big eyes.

Nicole smiled wryly and lightly tapped Lana’s forehead.” You’re a little girl. Don’t involve yourself in adult matters. We’ll know how to handle it ourselves.”

Lana pouted. “You didn’t come back because you didn’t remember Daddy, but Daddy remembers you.

He waited for you for five years. Isn’t his love obvious?”

“You cheeky girl, where did you learn all this?” Nicole could not help but laugh. She was no match for her daughter.

“Hehe, I didn’t learn them! I’m just observant,” Lana said proudly, lifting her chin.

“Don’t watch too many dramas.” Nolan came over with a look of disdain.

Lana pouted. “Isn’t that what Mommy says to you all the time?”

And he was calling her out now. This was just the pot calling the kettle black.

“We’re not the same. I’m older than you,” Nolan proudly declared.

“You’re only two minutes older than me.” Lana stuck out her tongue, unwilling to accept defeat.

Nolan was only slightly older, yet he wanted to lecture her like an older brother. Not likely!
