Chapter 2098
"Are you done?" Jared's voice sounded out outside the bathroom door.
Hearing that, Nicole instantly tensed up and she stammered, "E-Em yes. I'm ready."
After dawdling for a while, Nicole came out of the bathroom with the intention of leaving it for Jared. While he was
at it, she would seize the opportunity to hurry downstairs.
However, to her surprise, she ran directly into a sturdy embrace and was forcefully kissed the instant she stepped
out of the bathroom.
"Hmm..." Nicole was about to protest, but then, her delay in reaction gave Jared a chance to take control right away

After a passionate kiss, Jared released Nicole with a satisfied smile. "Wait for me."
With that, Jared went into the bathroom, leaving a dazed Nicole to snap back to reality and grit her teeth in
frustration. "Jared!"
A low, soft laugh came from inside the bathroom, making Nicole even more frustrated and helpless.
"Mommy," The room door opened, and Nolan and Lana poked their little heads in.
When Nicole saw the two cuties, her expression instantly changed, and she smiled, "You're up already,"
"Yep, is Mommy ready too?" Lana asked as she opened the door and came in.
Holding Lana's soft hands, Nicole said, "Let's go downstairs."
"What about Daddy?" Lana asked when she did not find Jared after looking around.
"He's washing up. We can wait for him downstairs," Nicole replied. She was still embarrassed about everything that
had happened with Jared just now and wanted to leave the room as quickly as possible.
"Alright," Lana answered and followed Nicole out of the room.
Noticing the unusual look on Nolan's face, Nicole asked," Nolan, what's wrong?"
"Oh, nothing," Nolan responded without allowing his gaze to meet Nicole's.
"Mommy, there's really nothing going on. Let's go down," Lana butted in, helping Nolan to shift the focus away from
the question. It was then that Nicole raised her eyebrows a little. It seemed to her that Nolan had done something
with Lana's knowledge. This surprised her a little, and she could not help but wonder what Nolan had done to gain
Lana's support.
The two children looked very guilty after Nicole had stared at them, almost as if they were going to surrender and

"What are you doing?" Jared's voice echoed through the room.
"Daddy!" Lana jumped into Jared's embrace as if she found her savior.
With a loving gaze, Jared picked Lana up. "What are you talking about?"
Upon being asked that question by Jared, Lana instinctively glanced at Nolan, who found a random excuse to elude
the conversation. "Let's go downstairs and eat."
Lana pouted her lip, but echoed Nolan's words anyway. "Yep, we should eat."
"Alright, let's go then," Jared trusted Lana's word without any doubts and walked out, carrying her in his arms.
Nicole's mouth twitched. 'Why have I never realized how easy it is to deceive Jared? I could see that the two
children were hiding something, but for some reason, Jared hasn't noticed it.'
