Chapter 1798
Miley felt a moment of embarrassment at that instant. She had not been involved in her son's life and did not know
him well, and had always created a distance between them.
But with Damien's words and Chloe's situation, she realized someone had to take care of them when they grew old.
"I understand. I'll be kinder to Everett."
It was only after she had spoken that Damien was satisfied. He then proceeded to give her a few more instructions
before heading upstairs.
Miley watched Damien leave and could not help but sigh with relief.
'When did my life become all about pleasing others? When will it end?' she asked herself.
After the weekend, Nicole resumed her normal routine, going to school during the day, and heading to filming in the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtevening.
Upon seeing Nicole, Nachelle whispered, "You really do understand Lloyd. As you have predicted, his mood has
improved significantly today."
Nicole allowed herself a tiny smile. "That's good. You don't have to worry about him anymore."
Nachelle then sighed. "As much as I hate to admit it, you're right. I don't understand Lloyd as well as you do."
Due to the fact that Lloyd had been kidnapped at a young age, they had not spent much time together, leading
very few people in the Holder family to know him well. As for Nachelle, she could only give him what he asked for.
Staring at Nicole, she suddenly felt emotional. "Perhaps you're the only one who truly understands Lloyd. I think
that's why he's so attached to you." Nicole fell silent. She could sense Lloyd's feelings for her, but she had already
made her stance clear to both Lloyd and Nachelle. This time, however, she did not feel the need to explain anything
any further. After all, Nachelle was just expressing her thoughts.
"Nicole, don't blame me for saying this, but sometimes, I really wish you could be with Lloyd. Even if... you and Jared
annul your marriage or separate. Regardless of your reputation or other people's opinions, I just want Lloyd to be
with the person he loves."
Not expecting Nachelle to be so bold and straightforward, Nicole sighed, and in a serious tone, she replied, "Thank
you for your kind intentions, but my heart belongs to someone else. I can't leave Jared. I want to be with the person
I love too."
Her words left Nachelle speechless. After all, who would not want to be with the person they loved? With that said,
Nachelle's gaze grew heavy, as she realized her son's chances were slim.
"Let's just focus on filming. At least allow Lloyd to make some fond memories with you," she said with a touch of
sadness in her voice. "At least, in this story, give him a perfect ending, alright?"
Understanding Nachelle's genuine feelings, Nicole felt a sense of empathy for her love for Lloyd, and decided to

With Nicole's promise, Nachelle felt reassured.
'TH get ready then," she said and left.
Nicole headed to the makeup room to get ready. By the time she emerged, Lloyd was done with his makeup too.
They were informed that today's scenes would feature just the two of them.
As they prepared for the cameras to roll, Lloyd noticed Nicole still rehearsing her lines and offered, "Do you want to
run through the lines together?"
Nicole smirked. "There's no need forthat. In the worst case, we'll have a NG."
She was confident that they would only require one or two takes to get the scene right.
Lloyd looked at her, impressed. "You're still so confident."
Whether it was completing tasks or acting, Nicole had always exuded a sense of security.
"Of course. To be able to act alongside a movie star, I'll need to have the skills," she said.
As a newcomer, repeatedly prompting NGs might attract criticism, and that was not how she would go about it.
