"I'll be with her soon." Stanley answered and walked off.

His statement left Gloria to mutter while pondering aloud," Soon? Well, that's not right. Does that

mean...

"Stanley, does that mean you don't have a girlfriend yet?!" Gloria yelled upon realizing what was going

on.

'The nerve of that brat! How dare he lie to me? If what he said is true, doesn't that mean that he is still

single? Why would he even claim that he has a girlfriend then?' Gloria wondered.

"Mom, let's wait for a tad longer. Perhaps what Stanley was trying to say is that he has someone he

likes, but that person hasn't given him a reply." Nicole comforted her mother the instant she saw how

sour Gloria's face was.

"That's right. Since Stanley has been honest enough to reveal this much to us, we should definitely

give him some time." Daniel replied, echoing Nicole's words. "Say what you want, but the issue with the

Jean family hasn't been

resolved yet. We can’t simply set him up on a blind date for him now."

After issuing a sigh, Gloria asked, "What else can I do?"

Indeed, due to the situation they had found themselves in, her hands were tied. At the end of the day, it

would not be feasible or reasonable for her to arrange more blind dates for Stanley. In addition to that,

Gloria was also curious if the girlfriend whom Stanley was referring to actually existed. And even that

aforementioned woman did exist, there were still questions as to what sort of person she was.

'Is it possible that he'll do exactly what Cherry did? I have a hunch. I think he's worried that we'll not This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

accept her if she isn't from a family as affluent as ours.’ Gloria thought.

Gloria frowned as her anxiety began to strike. 'Even if that is really the case, how could Stanley be

stupid enough to think that way? When has our family ever cared about status and wealth? When have

we ever discriminated?'

"Mom, dad, we're leaving for work now." Nicole and Jared got up together upon noticing that the air had

more or less been cleared.

"I'm going to visit the Jean family in a bit," Daniel added, and got up as well.

"I'll come with you." Gloria grabbed Daniel's arm, wanting to accompany him.

However, it was then that Daniel advised, "The issue is a rather complicated one. I should go there on

my own."

Daniel was worried that the Jean family might cause a scene if they ended up not reacting well to his

visitation, and subsequently, the ensuing discussion. Therefore, he did not want Gloria to be there to

bear the brunt of it if and when it happened.

Having understood Daniel's concerns, Gloria smiled. "Nah, it might perhaps be easier for us to maintain

a civil discussion with them if I'm there."

Noticing how persistent Gloria was, Daniel was left with no choice but to bring her along with him.

In the meantime, Nicole and Jared had already gotten into the car.

Nicole, in particular, was leaning against her seat with a smirk on her face. "So, Stanley and Tia aren't

officially an item yet."

As of late, Stanley had done away with all of the shyness and subtlety with his actions, leading Nicole

to assume that the both of them were officially in a relationship now.

Yet, the chance of them ending up together seemed probable, considering Stanley's words. Otherwise,

Stanley wouldn't have brought it up at all.

Looking at Nicole, Jared asked in a gentle voice, "What do you know?"

He could not help but wonder if there was a reasonable basis for Nicole to believe that Stanley and Tia

would allow their relationship to blossom and progress into the next stage.

"Everything has led up to this. Stanley knew that if he did not have the balls to confess, the both of

them might never see each other again," Nicole replied.

Then, she shrugged. In her eyes, the stage had been set, and all they had to do was wait for the right

time.

Jared smirked in response. He knew that Nicole was worried about her friends and family, which

naturally meant that she wanted Tia and Stanley to be happy as well. This was one of the reasons as

to why Nicole was invested in the wellbeing of everyone around her.

After arriving at the headquarters of Riddle Corporation, Nicole got out of the car.

"Wait for me when you come over to pick me up." Jared said, his eyes soft and tender.

"Okay." Nicole smiled.

Once he was sure that Nicole had entered the office building safely, Jared ordered Max to drive off.

As their engine roared to life, Max stated, "Sir, Ms. Riddle has managed to keep herself up to date with

Harvey's plans. You won't have to worry about it anymore."

"Okay. We'll act according to her plans. Still, you should get someone to keep an eye on that son of a

gun." Jared narrowed his eyes.

Since Nicole had planned everything out, including the necessary precautions and countermeasures,

Jared's only role was to ensure her safety by assigning people to watch over her.

"Yes." Max replied. "In other news, the Eastern Falcon has been keeping a low profile as of late. I

wonder if they know that they've been exposed, hence the cautiousness."

"If they maintain their silence, we'll just continue to keep an eye on them. As for the rest, you may leave

it to them." Jared nodded.

His eyes were calm with nary a crease on his forehead, as if he had already won the battle.
