"Oh, who's coming tomorrow, and have you told everyone?" Lulu asked.

Nicole paused before answering, ’Nolan and Lana have asked some of their friends in school, and the

rest are family.’

"That's good. Too many people might make the children uncomfortable. As long as they're with their

friends, they'll be happy," Lulu reasoned.

"First, we're going to the amusement park tomorrow, then we'll come back home in the afternoon. By

evening, their friends should arrive, and the rest of the guests will be there too. That's when we'll start

the birthday party," Nicole explained.

"Great, then I'll see you tomorrow evening. You all go and have a good time. I'll head home first to see

if there's anything else I can help with," Lulu said with a smile. "I won't be joining you at the amusement

park.’

"That works," Nicole agreed.

Knock, knock, knock.

Nicole glanced toward the door. "Come in," she called out.

"Ms. Riddle, Mr. Royce is here," Patricia said, opening the door and stepping to the side.

"Lawrence?" Nicole's brow furrowed as she wondered, 'Why is he here?'

Lulu's expression hardened. "It's not about Nolan and Lana's birthday party, is it?"

"Let him in, please," Nicole said, her tone firm.

"Right away," Patricia replied, stepping back.

Lawrence entered the room confidently.

"What do you need?" Nicole asked directly.

Lawrence placed two bags on Nicole's desk. "These are birthday gifts for Nolan and Lana. Since I

won't be seeing them, could you please give these to them?"

He had brought the gifts to Nicole's office as he wasn't invited to the birthday party and knew Nicole

didn't like him visiting the kids. This was his only way of showing he cared about the kids.

"We've already prepared gifts; there's no need for this," Lulu said, her frown showing some resistance.

"It's the thought that counts," Lawrence replied, his gaze firm.

Surprised by the exchange, Lulu looked at Nicole, awaiting her decision.

"Lulu, could you get a cup of coffee?" Nicole asked.

"Okay," Lulu agreed, giving Lawrence a wary look before leaving the room.

"Do you not want to help?" Lawrence asked bluntly after Lulu left.

Nicole furrowed her brows, wondering what he was up to this time. ’You really don't need to do this."

"It's just a gesture, something I've done every year for them," Lawrence said as if it were obvious.

"But-" Nicole began to object.

"Or I could deliver them myself," Lawrence interjected.

Nicole frowned even more. She understood Lawrence's unspoken warning: if she didn't agree to pass

on the gifts, he would deliver them himself.

She bit her lip, then sighed, giving in. "Alright," she agreed, deciding it was safer for her to return the

gifts to the Riddle residence than to let Lawrence go there himself.

"Thank you," Lawrence said, visibly relieved. He felt grateful that Nicole didn't outright reject his

gesture. If she had, he would have had to come up with another plan. He had even prepared to mail

the gifts directly to the Riddle residence as a last resort.

Nicole glanced at Lawrence and said with a slight smile, "I should be the one thanking you on behalf of

Nolan and Lana."

"No need to mention it," Lawrence replied with a smile. "As I've said, it's just my way of showing I care."
