Chapter 2667
"From now on, we're a family! Today's a happy occasion, so let's celebrate," cheered Gloria. She grinned happily,
looking at Tia who could be her new daughter-in-law.
Stanley sneakily hid his smirk as he coolly continued to eat.
After dinner was over, Tia wheeled Mrs. Wallace Sr. out to the garden for a breather.
Meanwhile, Gloria grabbed Stanley and pulled him to the side. "What's going on?"
"What? What do you mean?" asked Stanley, confused.
"What happened over the past two days? Did you not progress well?" Gloria bombarded Stanley, looking at him in
disbelief.
Stanley had a calm expression as he answered, "Well duh, you have to stop overthinking." Then he turned around
and walked up the stairs.

Stanley did not respond and disappeared from Gloria's sight as he reached the top of the stairs.
Gloria shook her head helplessly. 'I guess I should leave this to him to sort it out.'
The next day, the sun was shining brightly and everyone started their day as the usual.
Nicole had just arrived at Riddle Corporation. To her surprise, she saw Harvey Ellison standing there, waiting for her
in her office.
Mr. Ellison, what brings you here so early?" asked Nicole, her expression indifferent.
"I'm here of course to thank you, Ms. Riddle," said Harvey.
"Thank me?" replied Nicole, confused.
Harvey smirked and smiled. "Of course. I ought to thank you for arranging a paid vacation abroad for my
grandfather."
Harvey heavily emphasized on the word "my grandfather" to remind her that Thomas was his grandfather.
"Your grandfather?" Nicole echoed, raising an eyebrow.
Then, she retorted sarcastically, "Oh, you still remember that he is your grandfather. Should I throw a party to
commemorate this moment?"
‘Wow, this guy finally acknowledges his grandfather and knows how to properly address him too. Shocker!' she
thought to herself.
"Is there a problem?" asked Harvey, raising an eyebrow as well. He knew that Nicole was intentionally doing this to
him.
"No, not really. I mean since it's your family matters and not mine." Nicole paused before adding on, "Let's put it
this way.
I simply think that he well deserves a good relaxing holiday."
'What does he want? Was it illegal of me to send his grandfather somewhere for a holiday?' Nicole snorted
mentally.

washed over him.
'There's no point to this anymore. Grandpa has left the country and there wasn't anything wrong with Nicole's
approach. He agreed so willingly, and no one could stop him either way,’ thought Harvey, sulking.
"So, there's really no need for you to come thank me here personally, Mr. Ellison," said Nicole in a matter-of-fact
tone while noticing Harvey's depressed look.
Harvey had lost all the energy to refute Nicole. He almost looked like a kicked puppy.
Nicole was notorious for her sharp tongue. Harvey wanted to blackmail her for sending Thomas abroad for a
vacation but instead, the tables turned and they left him speechless and defenseless.
Harvey gritted his teeth while trying to regain his composure. "Even so, I should thank you for your generosity.
I even brought you a gift."
As soon as he finished speaking, Harvey's assistant came over and placed a gift onto Nicole's desk.
Nicole stared at the box and quirked an eyebrow. "Mr.
Ellison, you're too kind. I'll accept this gift of yours and if there's nothing else, you may leave."
Nicole did not want to spend another minute with Harvey in her office and directly shooed him away.
