Chapter 2777

Patricia had never approached Ellar for personal reasons; it was Ellar who had done so. Still, Charlie's words just so happened to resonate with Patricia's wish. She, too, wanted to stay away from and never meet Ellar ever again.

After he saw that Patricia had entered her apartment, Charlie returned to his.

The sun shone brightly the next morning, and the Riddle family manor was merrier than ever.

Nolan and Lana woke up, took their showers, and knocked on Nicole's bedroom door, trying to get their parents to wake up. After waiting for Nicole and Jared to get themselves cleaned up and dressed, the family went downstairs to the living room.

"Mommy, was your team-building event fun yesterday?" Lana asked out of curiosity.

"Yep, and everyone had fun," Nicole answered, ruffling Lana's hair.

Lana then continued with a mischievous grin and asked," Can you bring us along next time?"

Chuckling, Nicole reached out to pinch Lana's nose affectionately. "Kids are not encouraged to join these activities. You'll only get bored even if you're allowed to go."

"Oh, alright then," Lana pouted without showing any signs of disappointment.

Gloria and Daniel walked down the stairs, and once they saw that everyone was present, they chuckled and greeted them all. "Good morning. I see everyone is up." "Grandpa, Grandma!" Nolan and Lana greeted them back.

As she approached the couch, Gloria shot the kitchen a glance and said, "It's almost time for breakfast. Let's head to the dining room."

"Alright," Nolan and Lana replied, and followed their grandparents to the dining room.

Then, Nicole chuckled and looked at Jared. "Well, shall we?"

"Yeah," Jared replied, after which he took Nicole's hand and walked her to the dining room.

Just as the couple had taken their seats, Stanley emerged from his room and trudged his way to where everyone else was.

Nicole noticed Stanley's pale complexion and instantly figured that he had a restless night.

Raising her brows slightly, Nicole shot Stanley a meaningful glance. Though she did not say anything, her expression conveyed an obvious message.

Sensing Nicole's gaze, Stanley awkwardly looked away, unsure of how to respond to her silent inquiry.

Nicole was sure that his current condition was due to his interaction with Tia last night. However, he had nothing to tell Nicole, as he was unsure if he had gotten anywhere with Tia thus far. Nicole was quick to grasp what the situation was.

Apparently, there had been no significant progress between Stanley and Tia. Nevertheless, the fact that he had taken the initiative to speak to her was a significant step up from where he had been. Only time would tell what would happen to the future of their relationship.

"Hi, Nicole," Tia called out, informing Nicole of her arrival to send the kids to school.

She was standing in the living room, seemingly deprived of the courage to approach the dining hall. And after she had informed Nicole of her arrival, she patiently waited in the living room with her head hanging low.

"Hi, Tia!" Nolan and Lana greeted her.

Then, they placed their cutlery down and hurried to the living room.

"Are you done with your breakfast?" Tia asked, seeing that the kids were ready to leave for school now.

After slinging their bags onto their shoulders, Nolan and Lana replied, "Yep, we're done with our food."

"Bye, Nicole. We're leaving now." Tia said to Nicole.

"Yep, see you later," Nicole acknowledged.

However, Nicole had managed to catch onto the fact that Tia was behaving rather unusually today as well.
