Lulu remembered. "Oh right, Stanley and Tia went to take their prewedding photos." The two were finally getting their happily ever after, and another joyful event was being prepared at home.
Leaving the company, Jared was waiting for Nicole, but spencer hadn't arrived yet. Lulu said, "You go ahead. I'll wait a bit longer; Spencer should be here soon." "Alright." After agreeing, Nicole got into the car and left first.
The car started and headed toward the kindergarten.

Lulu got into the car, smiling lightly. "It's okay. | haven't been waiting long.” "Where do you want to go for dinner?" Spencer asked Lulu.
Lulu thought for a moment and then suggested, "How about we go home? We can invite June and Samuel over too." "That works," Spencer agreed.
Lulu took out her phone and called June, inviting June and Samuel to join them at the Riddle residence.
Meanwhile, Nicole and Jared arrived at the kindergarten to pick up Nolan and Lana.
After getting Nolan and Lana into the car, Nicole instructed, "Let's go." "Yes," Max replied, starting the car to leave.
"Mommy, what's wrong?" Despite Nicole's effort to remain calm, Nolan sensed that something was off with his Mommy's mood.
x] Nicole gently touched Nolan's head and said, "It's nothing. We're going home." While speaking, Nicole discreetly glanced through the rearview mirror and saw Lawrence getting into his car, her eyes narrowing slightly.
Nicole hadn't expected Lawrence to cto the kindergarten. Even though he kept his distance, not disturbing Nolan and Lana or letting them notice him, his presence still unsettled her.
Nolan was a sensitive child, and if Lawrence's visits becfrequent, it might be hard to prevent Nolan from noticing.
Moreover, Nicole wondered about Lawrence's intentions. 'Is he just checking on the kids, or does he have other plans? Surely, he won't harm Nolan and Lana?" As these thoughts raced through her mind, Nicole's demeanor grew colder.
"Mommy, are you thinking about work?" Lana, sensing something was off, looked up at Nicole with concern.

"No, it just seemed like Mommy was worried about something." With a soft smile, Nicole hugged Lana. "Mommy was just thinking about sthings, but it's all okay now." "Oh," Lana seemed convinced by Nicole's words.
Nolan gave Nicole a look but didn't say anything, though he didn't seem entirely convinced.
Nicole shook her head with a smile, looking up at Jared.
Jared gently squeezed Nicole's hand, offering comfort.
Nicole nodded, understanding that she might have been overthinking and becoming unnecessarily anxious.
Near the kindergarten, after getting into his car, Lawrence didn't leave immediately.
He had only intended to see the children, not expecting Nicole and Jared to be the ones picking up Nolan and Lana.
"Sir, do you think Nicole might suspect anything?" lan asked, concerned.
"Probably not," Lawrence's gaze darkened slightly, but he still instructed lan, "Let's have our people be more cautious."
