Chapter 2863
"I understand," Nicole sighed. "I know this isn't that big of a deal, but I just can't stop myself from worrying."
"Mommy, what's wrong?" Nolan asked, frowning.
He was standing there, wondering why Nicole was so anxious and worried about Jared.
Snapping out of it, Nicole turned to Nolan and ruffled his hair. "There's a project in your father's company that's
being held back by some difficulties, and we're trying to find a way out of it. My point is: now's not the best time for
your dad to make an appearance in public."
"Is it because someone disguised himself as Dad and went abroad?" Nolan cut to the chase.
Shocked by how astute Nolan's observation was, she asked, "How did you know that?"
"It's all over the news," Nolan replied confidently.
"I can't believe you watched the news," Nicole blurted, thinking that the kids only watched cartoons on television.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtConfident in his father's decision, Nolan held Nicole's hand and said, "Come on, Mommy. Nothing will happen since
Dad has gotten it all covered."
Nolan believed that Jared would be capable of handling everything thrown his way, and with that, Nicole pinched his
nose and chuckled. "Alright then."
Nicole herself did trust in Jared and his capabilities, but her concern for him still got her worried.
After entering the venue, they saw that everyone was already present, waiting for the wedding ceremony to begin.
"Nicole, what's going on with Jared?" Lulu whispered to Nicole the moment she saw Jared.
Nicole proceeded to pat Lulu's hands in reassurance. "Don't worry, we've got everything covered."
"Phew, that's good," Lulu said, easing up.
June, having overheard the conversation, tapped Lulu on the shoulder. "Come on, are you questioning what Jared is
capable of?"
Bewildered, Lulu turned to June, her eyes wide. "How did you know what I was thinking?"
Lulu thought Nicole had only told her about the situation, so she was surprised to know that June had learned about
it too.
Annoyed, June rolled her eyes. "I guessed it the moment I saw Mr. Johnston. I'm sure everyone present knows
what's up too. If they don't want to get on his bad side, they'll know what to do."
Everyone who was once uncertain of what to make of the situation all would get the picture when Jared showed up.
Lulu playfully stuck her tongue out, knowing what June said made sense.
Then, June craned her head to look at the entrance where more guests were approaching and asked Nicole, "Why
isn't Tia here?"
"Grandma's sick," Nicole explained.
At that instant, June understood that Tia had stayed home to take care of Mrs. Wallace Sr.
As the few were chatting, Ellar's voice suddenly blared out, catching their attention.
"I'm not late, am I?" Ellar asked, looking worn and disheveled after a long journey.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJune then sized Ellar up and said, "Well, you're putting on quite a show."
"My mom is very sensitive to details. She'll discover the truth if I take one wrong step." Ellar explained in a hushed
whisper.
"I'll greet them first. Let's dine at the same table later," he said, and hurried off.
As Ellar dashed off into the crowd, June chuckled. "By the looks of it, his arm seems fine."
"Patricia did say that his recovery is almost complete. Well, his arm would have recovered by now if he hadn't
missed his check-ups and taken good care of himself," Nicole sighed, worried about Ellar who had been neglecting
his own well-being.
Lowering her voice again, June posited, "I say, Ellar's doing it on purpose."
June had called Ellar's trick, aware that he had pulled all of that nonsense because Patricia was worried about his
injury.
Lulu, who begged to disagree, laughed and said, "Well, that's something you're wrong about. Ellar wouldn't have the
guts to do that, even if he wanted to."
