Chapter 2842
There were so many family members present that there was not even enough space for everyone on the couch to
sit on. Meanwhile, Nolan and Lana were clamoring to play outside, forcing Lulu and June to take them to the
courtyard, with Samuel and Spencer following them.
As Sally was pregnant, Steve was worried that she might experience bouts of exhaustion, so he got her to relax and
reserved the most spacious seat for her. Sally then sat down, holding hands with Jane.
"Ah, would you just look at how sweet the couples are and how close the siblings are? It's truly a sight for sore eyes.
I just hope that Emery's and Ellar's families will be the same when they get married." Emma sighed.
"Don't worry. It will," Gloria assured.
"Hey, Aunt Emma. Why aren't Emery and Ellar here?" Sean asked.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Emery's girlfriend has an assignment abroad, so Emery has flown off to accompany her. As for Ellar, he is on a
business trip and hasn't returned yet."
"Oh, I see." Sean nodded, having asked the question at random.
Everyone knew Emery's girlfriend was a flight attendant, so Emery would not be able to get her to come if she had
to work.
"Hey, Aunt Emma, is it true that Emery is preparing for the wedding?" Steve asked.
Emma smiled. "Yes, and that's the reason why I've called everyone here."
After she had spoken, Emma glanced over at Dexter, who turned to look at Benjamin. "Dad? This is the good news I
mentioned."
"Right! That is indeed good news.” Mr. Riddle Sr. smiled.
"Dexter? Emma? Congratulations to the both of you!" Karen said.
Although she was feeling a little bitter and resentful, she knew she had to be cordial and friendly to them. Watching
the children of Daniel's and Dexter's families all settle down had made her very anxious for Preston, as her son had
made no progress in the relationship department.
"Come on, Aunt Emma. Give me a break." Preston's voice blared out, causing everyone to turn and stare at the
entrance.
"Why are you here? I thought you wouldn't show up!" Karen complained the instant she saw Preston.
Hearing that, Preston proceeded to explain, "There was a sudden problem at the company, so I got a little
occupied."
"Good evening, Grandpa," Preston greeted as he approached his grandfather who was seated at the living hall.
After shooting Preston a glance, Benjamin declared, "Now that everyone is here, let's have dinner."
"Alright. Time to eat." Dillion stepped forward to help his father up.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"I'll go and call the others," Jane said, heading out to inform Lulu and the others that dinner had already started.
Soon, the entire family sat down for dinner. It was a rare occasion, and everyone was in a good mood, chatting and
laughing while enjoying their dinner.
Nicole was well aware of how delicate the situation was, so she did not participate in any family discussions that
might be controversial, such as Emery's engagement to his girlfriend, Ellar's business trip, and Stanley's love life.
Stanley had also shown up on his own without bringing Tia with him. Nicole had no idea what Stanley was up to, but
she believed that he must have his own reasons for not bringing Tia here with him today. She believed he would
never allow himself to subject Tia to any feelings of anxiety and discomfort. Behind his act of not taking Tia here
today and explaining the truth of his relationship with her was a solid reason Nicole would soon come to learn.
"What are you thinking about?" Jared gently asked Nicole.
Nicole raised her head and smiled at Jared. "Nothing, I just feel that it's rare to have such moments of peace."
Whenever she returned here in the past, there would always be grievances and problems to be addressed, making
everyone dread the idea of even coming here. Today, however, she could finally engage in casual conversation with
her family without any complications.
