Chapter 2622
Nicole glanced and noticed that Jared had not reached home yet. She frowned a little. 'He's not home yet?'
Nicole went over, sat down and joined everyone for dinner.
"How are things with Grandpa?" Daniel asked softly but his eyes were filled with worry.
"All good," Nicole replied calmly. She did not want everyone to worry.
Gloria frowned a little, "Then, what is it with Chloe? Did she really find Ghost Hand?"
After years of searching, everyone thought that it was impossible to find anymore. But now, she suddenly said that
she had found it. Gloria was quite confused by the sudden news.
"Whether it's real or not, we'll find out once we see that person." Nicole's words were filled with an unnoticeable
coldness.

Why did he feel that Nicole was trying to imply something else?
Nicole shrugged her shoulders and replied, "We're not sure about anything at the moment. Let's just wait."
The person will arrive in the next few days, and they should receive Patricia's results.
As if understanding, Stanley raised his brows and replied," I'll sit back and wait for the result then."
Nicole smiled. "Sure."
"What are you guys talking about?" Gloria could sense that something was off between the two of them, so she
could not help but question.
"Mom, it's nothing." He turned to Daniel and said, "Dad, you don't have to worry about Grandpa as well. Nicole will
take care of it."
Stanley could tell that Nicole had a plan, and she was just waiting for the time to come.
"Everything is taken care of by Nicole. I don't know what the rest of you are doing." Gloria rolled her eyes at
Stanley, unsatisfied.
Stanley rubbed his nose. "I can't possibly bear such a huge blame alone."
The rest of the boys were not present, except for him. But the fault could not be borne by him alone.
"Hmph, I'd like them to bear the responsibility as well, but none of them have been here ever since they got
married," Gloria said.
"I’m sorry, mom." Stanley instantly gave in and swore, "I'll make sure to ask Sean and Steve to help Nicole take
care of this matter."
No matter what the conversation was, they were just mocking Stanley for not being married or having a girlfriend
yet. That was plain discrimination.
However, Stanley did not want to go through the pain of being pestered into getting married. So, he could only

Seeing that Stanley pretended to admit his mistakes but pushed the blame to Sean and Steve, Gloria could not help
but laugh. Stanley really was a good kid. He was still a likable child even when he caused people to worry.
"Let's eat. The kids must be tired already. Let them get an early rest," Daniel reminded his wife.
Gloria rolled her eyes at Stanley, as if saying, Til let you go for once.'
Stanley secretly let out a sigh of relief. It was as if a rock was lifted off his chest.
After dinner, everyone went to rest in their respective rooms.
Nicole accompanied Nolan and Lana for a short playtime. When it was almost bedtime, she arranged for the two
kids to shower and bath. Then, Nicole returned to her own room.
It was getting late, but Jared had not returned yet. Nicole could not help but wonder, 'What's he doing? Why isn't he
back yet at this hour? Could something have happened to him?'
While Nicole was thinking all the messy thoughts, the yard lit up. She knew that Jared's car had returned.
