Chapter 2179
Jared immediately understood Nicole's intentions when he heard her asking him these questions, but then, he could
not help but brush it off. "I think it might take a while."
"Can you think of an idea to solve this?" Nicole asked.
Jared nodded. "There are quite a number of solutions to this but they're not completely effective as we're still
researching them."
'Every solution has its own set of pros and cons, and the final one has yet to be determined,' he thought.
"Well, it's best to have a solution when things go awry." Nicole issued a huge sigh of relief. 'This won't affect the
Johnstons much.'
"Yeah, don't worry about it."
Gentleness flashed across Jared's eyes as his hand caressed Nicole's hair. Then, he spun around and made a

Nicole set her laptop aside while waiting for Jared to come out from the shower. Nicole had been focusing on
coming up with a solution the entire night. She was relieved when she could finally get some shuteye, as she was
beginning to feel a little tired.
Nicole's heart skipped a beat when she felt Jared's concern over her. It was the first time she had noticed any
traces of warmth in his eyes.
The next day, the sun shone brightly, and each member of the Riddle family left the residence after they had eaten
their breakfast. Nicole and Jared too were about to leave the house when Daniel stopped them.
"Jared, I heard that you were having some problems with your projects. How's it going now? Is it going to be
tough?"
"They're fine for now. We're just looking for solutions.” Jared calmly responded.
"That's good to hear." Daniel then turned to look at Nicole." You don't look too good. Don't strain yourself too
much."
"Don't worry about it, Dad. I'm okay."
'It's probably because I overworked myself last night. I'm feeling great though,' Nicole thought to herself.
After they had bade their goodbyes to Daniel, both Jared and Nicole left the Riddle residence. On the other hand,
Tia had brought the twins, Nolan and Lana, with her and were about to hop onto Stanley's car.
"Mom." The twins called out to their mother in their cute, little voices.
This prompted Nicole to walk over and look at Tia and Stanley. "Is it... convenient for the two of you?"
"Stanley said there's something he wants to do, and it so happens that he will be passing by the kindergarten, so it's
okay," Tia explained in a low voice.
Nicole raised her eyebrows and looked at Stanley, 'Oh? How coincidental.'
"There's a seminar," Stanley said in a calm voice.
"Well, okay then. Off you guys go. Don't let me hold you back, " Nicole said.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNicole, however, could not shake the thought of Stanley's expression looking a little off-putting, though it had since
returned to normal.
"Well, it's almost time for us too."
"Mommy, we're leaving." The twins called out to their mother when they heard they were about to drive off.
"Miss Riddle? It's best that I get going now." Tia nodded and got into the car.
Nicole genuinely believed that Stanley was in the area to drop the twins off, so she hurried them off, not wanting to
hold Stanley back, as she knew it would not be appropriate to be late.
"Okay, off you guys go."
Nicole watched as the car left, the corners of her lips twitching involuntarily.
A glint then flashed across her eyes. 'Stanley and Tia look a bit off...'
"Hop in!" Jared called out as he eyed the curiosity on Nicole's face.
With his brows raised, he grabbed her arm and buckled her in before bringing the engine to life.
Nicole leaned into her seat, continuing to think about
Stanley and Tia's odd behavior when her phone rang out of the blue, derailing her train of thought. She frowned
upon seeing that Lulu was the caller.
Tm almost at the office though. She knows this, so why is she calling me? Is there an emergency?' she wondered.
