Chapter 1979
Gloria and Daniel relaxed when they saw Nolan was taking the initiative to take Lawrence around for a house tour.
Lawrence took a glance at Nicole before he left. "You don't mind if I accompany him for a while, do you?"
Noticing Lawrence's modest and polite manner; Nicole nodded in agreement.
For the past five years, Lawrence would ensure that he asked her for her permission and would never force things
on her that would make her uncomfortable.
"Go ahead. Nolan has been missing you these past few days. " Nicole smiled at Lawrence, as if the two of them had
an unspoken understanding.
Onlookers would misjudge them as husband and wife.
Jared, who was looking at this scene, felt even worse and directly blocked Lawrence from his sight. Jared grabbed
Nicole by her arm and said, "Let's go back to our room."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJared emphasized on going back to their room on purpose, ensuring that Lawrence had heard him loud and clear,
before leaving with Nicole.
"Oh yeah... Leo, feel free to do what you like. I'll come find you after I've got Lana settled down," Nicole explained
awkwardly to Lawrence, with Lana in her arms.
Lawrence watched as the family of three walked upstairs
before disappearing. 'Five years...*
Lawrence had always been an optimistic person, who had been inching toward Nicole slowly over time. 'In just a
few days' time she had reconnected with Jared... To see them as a family of three is such an eye sore...'
Lawrence looked away and found that Steve had been staring at him. He quickly gave Steve a smile. "Steve, is
there something you want to say?"
Steve slightly raised his eyebrows and replied, "No."
'He didn't avoid eye contact at all. He's quite a... dangerous guy. I'm worried he might've come here prepared.
Otherwise, how could he have all our names right on the first try?' Steve kept his speculations to himself before
deciding to investigate this matter with Sean later.
Upstairs, Nicole carried Lana into the room and Jared trailed along behind them. Jared noticed the relationship
between the mother and daughter duo were close. He could not hide his smile.
"Mom, why does this handsome uncle have to live with you?"
Nicole was speechless and did not know how to explain. Jared on the other hand, who was still feeling resentful
about what Lawrence had said and done earlier, spoke directly to Lana. "I'm your birth father. No one can live with
your mom except for me."
"Birth father?' Lana was stunned, before speaking with watery eyes, "Oh my God! The handsome guy is my birth
father!"
Lana stretched out her fleshy tiny arms toward Jared. "Birth father, I want a hug!"
Compared to Nolan, seeing Lana being this excited had lifted up some of the weight off his chest. Jared reached out
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmand brought Lana into his arms.
Nicole was stunned at the suddenness of seeing Lana, who was often sensitive, easily accept Jared. 'Lana would've
never let Lawrence hug her usually, yet she allowed Jared to hug her? I guess this is the miracle of blood relations,
huh?'
Jared held Lana in his arms before proudly looking at Nicole. "You should've let us meet sooner."
'Compared to that brat Nolan, Lana is much cuter.'
Nicole did not speak, yet she watched as Jared enjoyed his time coaxing Lana to sleep. She could not help but feel a
little helpless. "You better hug her tight. Lana usually wouldn't let others hug her."
A smile instantly spread across his face as he heard this before he turned to look at his daughter. "She's my
daughter. That's how it should be."
Lana smiled happily. "Handsome man, you're really my birth father?"
Lana looked like she had been looking forward to having a father for a long time. On the other hand, her brother
was fond of his godfather. Now, Lana only wanted her father.
'I guess from now on I can be like other kids. I have a birth father who will come to my sports events.'
