Chapter 2194

“There’s no need forthat,” Samuel shook his head, as having others around to assist him in solving problems of this sort was embarrassing to say the least.

“Mom, forget it. Just wait for the good news,” Nicole smiled and advised.

After all, no one could help another with relationship matters.

“That’s right. Let the kids handle their own affairs,” Daniel said while serving his wife some food.

“I’m finished. You guys take your time,” Samuel said while putting his empty bowl down. He then got up and went upstairs, each step heavy and loud.

“Why would he…” Gloria shook her head helplessly.

Nicole looked at Samuel’s figure, and a hint of amusement crossed her eyes. She was certain June and Samuel did not have a fight. If anything, June would never have the heart to fight with him, while Samuel would definitely not pick on June either. It was probably because June had been too anxious about Samuel’s pursuit and might have spewed some harsh words as a result.

Still, it did not really matter, as the two of them obviously cared for each other. Therefore, Nicole had no doubt that their relationship would not be in trouble.

After dinner, Jared and Nicole went upstairs and entered Nolan’s room.

“Daddy, Mommy,” Lana shouted joyfully when she saw her parents.

“Hi Lana, you’re in your brother’s room as well,” Nicole smiled, not expecting Lana to be here. “What are you doing?”

“I’m building blocks, and Nolan seems to be taking up a task, ” Lana glanced in Nolan’s direction, where he was busy at his computer desk.

Lana got bored in her room alone, so she had come to play with Nolan. However, Nolan seemed busy, so she had to play with herself. Still, her being forced to play alone in her brother’s company was better than doing so in a room all on her own.

Jared lowered his gaze to look at Lana’s blocks and asked,” What are you building, Lana?”

“A castle,” Lana smiled sweetly and tugged at sems of Jared’s jacket. “Daddy, will you come to play with me?”

“Why, of course,” Jared sat down and played with Lana.

Looking at Jared’s big figure sitting on the mat, playing with blocks, Nicole’s eyes flashed with a hint of amusement. This scene did not feel out of place; instead, it felt heartwarming. This felt like an act of compensation for the five years he had missed with the children.

With joy in her eyes, Nicole looked at Nolan, who seemed to be totally engrossed in his task.

Raising her eyebrows, she curiously approached him from behind. ‘Why is he so serious today? It is as if he is dealing with an enemy. Well, this is a first. I have never seen him being so serious before. Could it be that he has taken on a difficult task?’

After getting a clear look at the screen, Nicole’s pupils contracted in shock, and she asked, “Nolan, what are you tracking?”

“Oh, it’s the mission you’ve posted before about the five major crests. I saw someone had accepted it but backed out rather quickly. So, I wanted to find out who it was. I wanted to know who had taken the mission and backed out, ” Nolan answered without stopping what he was doing even for a second.

“Stop what you’re doing right away,” Nicole’s tone became stern.

“Oh, alright,” Nolan immediately stopped, halting the tracking process.

Although he did not understand why, he habitually listened to Nicole whenever the act of hacking was concerned.

After the system had returned to its default settings, Nolan asked Nicole in curiosity, “Mom, why can’t I continue tracking?”
