Chapter 2779
If that was not the situation, the kids could only wonder why Stanley would bring Tia home last night
"Don't overthink it! I swear! Nothing happened yesterday," Tia insisted.
The more they explained, the more complicated the situation became, and at this rate, the kids were proving to be
quite a handful.
"Tia, I think you should keep your distance from Uncle Stanley. Why don’t you try to make friends with the people
Aunt June introduced?" Nolan advised.
He had no choice but to say what he said because he did not want the people he cared about to get hurt.
"Actually, we really hoped that you would give Uncle Stanley a chance. We've even helped him in secret many
times, but sadly. Ugh! Sadly, things just aren't working out," Lana sighed, her speech and mannerism mirroring that
of an adult.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThey had initially thought that Stanley and Tia would be a good match. Unfortunately, fate had other plans, and
there was nothing they could do to force it.
Tia's lips twitched. She was in complete disbelief of what the kids were thinking about these days.
"I'll warn Uncle Stanley tonight. His behavior will only hurt you and Cherry," Nolan shook his head, looking distressed
now.
Tia was speechless at the kids' words. They really thought they were thinking ahead of time.
" Tia," Lana was about to continue, but was stopped when Tia covered her mouth.
If the kids continued to talk, she and Stanley would become the scapegoats of the family.
"Erm, you guys misunderstood the situation," Tia explained." I didn't want to join the others in the karaoke. That
was why we came home earlier yesterday."
Tia figured that this was her last ditch effort to clarify her situation to the kids. The simpler the explanation was, the
easier it would be for them to understand.
"Then?" Lana asked, eager for more details.
"Then we came back to get some sleep. I got a headache from the alcohol, so I didn't manage to rest well last
night," Tia came up with an excuse, and blamed the booze.
"Oh," Nolan and Lana breathed their sighs of relief in unison.
At long last, they had gotten the reassurance they were looking for.
Tia was much more at ease after comforting the two kids. If they continued on with their imagination, there would
be no limit to where the story would end.
And once she had dropped the kids off at kindergarten, she loosened up. She gently patted her cheeks, frustrated
at
how difficult it would be for her to interact with Stanley in the future. She did not know how to face him, and even
the kids could already tell. On top of that, she was sure that other people had also noticed their unusual behavior.
Meanwhile, Nicole had just reached Riddle Corporation.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs soon as she stepped into her office, Lulu approached her with an eager look: one which indicated her desire to
gossip.
"So, how did it go?" Lulu asked before flashing Nicole a meaningful smile.
She was expecting Stanley and Tia to have made some degree of progress.
"No idea," Nicole shook her head, feeling that something was off. "They're acting weird. During breakfast, they
seemed even more distant than usual."
Nicole shared the story with Lulu, and said, "It's better to let them handle it."
Nicole found their situation strange, as Stanley and Tia did not seem to have any major issues with one another.
Perhaps something had really happened to them last night. The only other possibility was that they were waiting for
the perfect time.
"Oh,” Lulu replied. "Fine. I wish them all the best."
"Oh, and by the way." Lulu smirked and placed the file down. "It's done."
"Nicole raised an eyebrow, intrigued by what Lulu had accomplished. "That went smoothly."
