Chapter 1957
Noticing how incorrigible the little guy was, Jared grabbed him by his collar and lifted him off the ground. "That's just
a temporary name your mother has been using for the past five years. This is her home, and now that she's back,
she'll be called by her real name, Nicole!"
How dare you try to change my wife's name, you little brat? That's not your decision to make!' he fumed.
"My other daddy gave Mommy that name. You can't change it!" Nolan swung his little arms at Jared, though he
could not hit him.
Jared's gaze darkened as soon as Nolan had uttered those words. "Little brat! Your mother and I are legally
married! I'll decide what her name is!"
Noticing the tension building up between them, Nicole stepped up and took the kid away from Jared.
"That's enough. Why are you arguing with a child? It's just a name anyway. I'll change it when I return home," she

"Mommy!" Nolan looked at Nicole with a pout. "How could you change your name?"
Nicole smiled at Nolan. "Silly Nolan. It's just that I've forgotten what my real name was. Now that I've found my
parents and my family, it's only right that I reclaim my real name..."
"Mommy’s parents?" Nolan scratched his head and looked around, whereupon he spotted a middle-aged couple,
"Them?" Nolan pointed at them.
Nicole quickly grabbed his finger. "They're your grandparents and you shouldn't point at them like that. It's
impolite."
But after he heard the word "grandparents," Nolan quickly became silent. In his kindergarten, everyone had their
grandparents to love them in addition to their parents. He had always wanted to meet his own grandparents, but as
he was not expecting to see them here, he felt somewhat shy!
Nicole had never seen him acting like this. He proceeded to hide behind Nicole, peeking his head out to observe
Daniel and Gloria.
Nicole could not help but giggle before she held him up. "It's okay. Your grandparents are not going to hurt you."
Then, Nolan went on to say, "I know that they won't hurt me, but... are they going to get me any gifts? My friends
from kindergarten told me that their grandparents would always give them presents... and I've never received any."
Nolan sounded a little sullen as he uttered the last few words. Previously, he had never dared to say these things to
his mother because he was worried that it would make Nicole sad.
As soon as Daniel and Gloria heard Nolan mentioning gifts, they immediately said, "Of course there are gifts! We’ve
prepared a lot of gifts for you, Nolan! We'll make up for the past five years, okay?"
Sean flashed a warm smile the moment he saw the anticipatory look on Nolan's face. "I'll do the same too."
Steve then bent down and added after hearing what Sean had said. "Me too."
"Well, count me in. Just tell me what you like." Stanley smiled at Nolan.
"You should tell me instead! I'll buy you anything in this world!" Spencer squatted down, attempting to cheer Nolan

Samuel could not contain his excitement anymore after hearing what his brothers had offered, "I'll give you a
basketball signed by Kobe Bryant himself and a pair of limited-edition sneakers! You can have as many as you want!

Nolan was stunned. He was already delighted that his grandparents were going to give him presents. But
unexpectedly, his five uncles wanted to do the same too! At this point, he simply could not imagine how many
presents he would be getting. In fact, he was already thinking about how to show them off to his friends at
kindergarten!
And while it might be true that everybody had grandparents, none of them had as many uncles as him!
Happily, Nolan said, "Thank you, my dear uncles!"
Nicole felt extremely embarrassed upon realizing how many presents Nolan was going to get just because of his
few
words. "Hey you guys. Don't listen to his nonsense. Save your money..."
'How could this little brat ask for so many presents during his first meeting with them? This is so embarrassing,' she
thought.
