Chapter 1822


    ''Why could Lulu let June have it yet I can''t?''


    "I''d obviously be stingy with you! These are prepared for the girls, not for you!"


    After he finished saying, Spencer replenished the pastries and brought them over to Lulu directly. Lulu


    was embarrassed but her heart was inexplicably touched by the warm gesture, having never seen


    Spencer angry before, and it was over her favorite pastry at that.


    ''This feels like a dream,'' Lulu thought to herself.


    Samuel frowned, "Fine, I won''t eat it. Why do you have to get so mad over this?"


    Samuel rolled his eyes and saw the barbecue Stanley and Tia who were in charge of was almost ready.


    "Let''s go over to the barbeque," Samuel said to June.


    "Alright," said June who looked happy. As long as it was with Samuel, anything they did would make


    her feel contented. Spencer, on the other hand, saw the both of them leave and realized that he had


    gone a little overboard. Lulu turned to look at him and said, "Thank you for preparing those for me


    albeit a bit too much... It''s alright to have shared with them."


    Spencer suddenly became stubborn, "I prepared them for you, so they are yours and yours only. Spare


    nothing for Samuel even if you should bring the rest home."


    ''This damn guy wants topete with me on everything I do. I''ll be damned if I ever were to give him


    anything to eat,'' thought Spencer.


    Lulu could not help butugh, having never seen such a childish side to Spencer before, "Alright, I


    won''t share any of it with them next time and bring home those I can''t finish."


    Spencer grinned from ear to ear when he heard Lulu say this, not able to stop himself from looking at


    Lulu more.


    Under the sunlight, Lulu''s gentle eyes made Spencer''s heart pound faster.


    ''Lulu is such a beauty with a lively and cheerful personality. Her bright and beautiful eyes are so


    alluring.'' Spencer could not help but look away quickly out of embarrassment.


    "I''ll get you something to drink."


    "Okay," Lulu nodded obediently. Nicole, who had been spectating everything on the sideline, noticed


    that things were progressing fairly well for her brothers except Steve who kept sneaking looks at Sally


    from a distance.


    "As soon as you called her out, Sally woulde here right away. I bet she hasn''t forgotten about you


    either after all these years."


    Nicole''s words made Steve''s expression tough to express into words.


    "If you can''t forget her, why don''t you get back with her? We''re all adults here, so why are you


    hesitating?" reminded Nicole.

    Steve looked back at Nicole and said, "It''s not easy as you say...She decided to study abroad without


    asking how I would have felt. I still can''t let go of the void and pain in my heart. I am still wondering


    what I am to her even at this moment."


    "Since you want answers, why not ask her yourself,'' Nicole said with an aura of maturity. "She will


    never know if you don''t tell her what you felt. Go and talk things out, clear out the misunderstandings


    between the two of you. Who knows if it will go back to the way you were before? Won''t you two feel


    better after lifting the weight off your chests?"


    It was no surprise to say that Nicole saw through the situation that immediately eased Steve''s heart.


    ''You know what, Nicole''s right. What am I afraid of? Things can''t get any worse than it is now anyway.''


    Nicole said no more as she noticed Steve''s eyes brighten. It was as if he hade to a realization.


    ''My brothers may be a bit dense when ites to rtionships, but with a little bit of push and


    encouragement, they should be able to do it,'' Nicole thought to herself.


    On the other side, the chefs had started to help out with the barbeque while Nicole found a spot to sit


    on. She felt that someone approached her and raised her head subconsciously, only toe across a


    familiar pair of eyes.


    "What are you doing here?" Nicole stared at Jared with a surprised look on her face. Nicole did not


    inform nor invite Jared to this, ''How did hee here?''


    "Your father notified me about this saying that your brothers had brought some guests over. Why didn''t


    you tell me?"


    Daniel thought Nicole had invited Jared and called to remind him to arrive earlier.
