Chapter 2877
If Lawrence was truly the one behind all of this, her explanations about the puzzles thus far would make perfect
sense.
Lawrence had attained the Water Crest, but he had not been able to crack its failsafe and become its bearer, and
due to him being unable to seek Nicole's help directly, he had turned to giving Nolan a modified version of the
interface masked as a game as his last resort.
After all, Lawrence knew Nicole and Nolan well enough to come up with a strategy that capitalized on their
strengths. Lawrence had also probably thought that Nolan would forever keep his secrets, making it difficult, if not
impossible for them to learn of his true intentions from the boy.
If it was in the past, Lawrence would only have to ask a few simple questions to gain a full idea of their progress
and the situation they were in, granting him relative ease with achieving his goals. But now that things did not go his
way anymore, he had resorted to elaborate trickery.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLittle did Lawrence know that Nolan would not tell him about his recent discoveries, allowing him to think that Nicole
and the rest had not caught onto anything fishy just yet.
"In the meantime, you should let Nolan continue what he’s doing. Don't make any moves for now. As for the
application, leave it to Preston. Once he's done, we'll proceed." Jared said with a serious look etched on his face.
They would not grant Lawrence this victory no matter the cost. Moreover, the Water Crest had finally resurfaced,
so it would be a good idea for them to secure it.
Jared then turned to Nicole, his gaze softening. Up to this day, no one had successfully become the bearer of two
Reby Family Crests at the same time. Perhaps Nicole could be the first in history, and he had faith she would be able
to if she wanted to.
As her head was pounding, Nicole had decided to give this matter a rest for the night. After giving him a brief nod,
she dragged him to bed.
The next morning, the sun was warm and bright.
It was about seven thirty in the morning and the dining room was a sight to behold, with all of the Riddles gathering
at the table and chatting away in high spirits.
In addition to those who would regularly show up for breakfast there, Tia and Mrs. Wallace Sr. were there as well.
As it turned out, Stanley had formally made his relationship with Tia known to Mrs. Wallace Sr. and his parents,
Gloria and Daniel.
"Great! That's great!" Mrs. Wallace Sr. beamed, naturally happy about it.
She was one of the first to know about Tia's feelings toward Stanley.
Gloria nodded vigorously in elation, "This is definitely good news!" "I guess you have nothing to worry about now."
Daniel laughed and turned to Gloria.
"Yeah, I don't have to worry about it anymore." Gloria sighed, after which she looked at the new couple. "About the
wedding, when are you guys planning to have it?"
Having never given it any thought, Tia lowered her head in embarrassment.
"Mom, although Tia has said yes, I'm thinking of putting the wedding on hold in the meantime." Stanley replied.
Although he too wished to marry Tia as soon as possible, they would be in too much of a rush if they planned to

"What are you guys waiting for? Since you've proposed, choose a date and prepare for the wedding." Gloria
frowned, growing impatient.
"Mom, there really isn't a need to rush into it. I want to give Tia some time," Stanley disagreed.
They had just made their relationship official, so he wanted to give Tia some time to calm down.
As the both of them had decided to be together, nothing would change. Therefore, there was no need to rush the
wedding. Stanley's main concern was that Tia, being the jittery, nervous wreck she was, would be overwhelmed if
they held the ceremony as soon as possible.
"Yeah, we're not in a rush," Tia echoed, not knowing what to say.
"What a fool." Gloria sighed in irritation. "How can you not be in a rush for it? There are a ton of preparations to be
made. You'll have to think about the house as well. There aren't any suitable houses for you guys in this
neighborhood, but I can't just force you guys to pick one, can I?" "Mom, Tia and I will be staying here." Stanley
smiled as he looked at Gloria.
"Tia and I have discussed it before, and we've decided to stay here."
