Chapter 2021


    "I get it. But the outside world is full of danger." Gloria murmured, and her eyes turned red.


    If it were not for the dangers outside, Nicole would have never left home for five years with no news.


    They did not even know if she was still alive or not.


    Gloria''s words made the atmosphere grow heavy. Nicole''s disappearance was truly a pain in the entire


    family''s heart, causing them an indescribable wound.


    "Aunty, we''ll take good care of her this time," Jared imed, his aura determined. Jared would not


    allow anyone to harm Nicole anymore.


    "Mom, we''ll protect her too." The few brothers had the same conviction.


    Daniel came home at this moment and heard their deration. Heforted Gloria. "Take it easy. Let''s


    give the kids a chance. Plus, we can''t lock Nicole up in the house."


    The family loved Nicole. It was only natural to give her space and freedom to grow. If Nicole wanted to


    stay at home, they would support her decision. If Nicole rather went out into the world, they would


    never be an obstruction in her path.


    Nicole''s eyes had a hint of bliss, but she felt a tingling sensation in her nose. Her family gave her an


    immense amount of strength. For them, Nicole had the courage to face the future. "Don''t worry about


    me. I''ll take care of myself."


    Nicole noticed, even though she had lost her memories, her skills did not disappear with them. She


    would find ways to protect herself, not putting herself in danger.


    "You must take good care of yourself." Gloria understood it was impossible to let Nicole stay home all


    day, doing nothing. She then looked at the boys and added seriously, "You must protect her."


    "Rest assured. We''ll protect her," Nicole''s five brothers replied in unison. They knew the waters


    seemed peaceful when Nicole just returned, but that was because her identity was not exposed.


    Today''s banquet was an announcement to the world that Nicole was back. The risks of following up


    would only increase, so they had to be careful.


    "That''s enough for tonight. Good job, everyone. It''s time to go back and rest," Daniel cued.


    "Are you staying back?" Gloria looked at Sean and Steve. The two of them lived on their own after


    marriage, asionally visiting them. However, Gloria hoped they would stay back since it was rather


    late.


    "We are," Sean and Steve replied, not wanting to deal with any more hassle at this hour.


    "Alright then, go rest."


    Soon, everyone got back to their rooms to rest. Jared and Nicole returned to their room and prepared


    to sleep after a quick freshening up. Leaning on the bedside, Nicole slowly moved her feet and felt the


    soreness from wearing high heels.


    "Do your feet hurt?" Jared came over and sat on the bedside. His hand wrapped around her feet,


    slowly messaging them after observing her actions.


    "Don''t." Nicole subconsciously wanted to retreat her foot, but Jared held on even tighter.


    He said, "Don''t move."


    Jared took a pain-relieving spray from the medical box and sprayed it on Nicole''s feet. Then he


    continued to massage and rx her feet.


    Watching his natural look, Nicole''s cheeks flushed, and she felt a little hot.


    "It needs to be relieved properly. Otherwise, you''ll be sore from walking tomorrow," Jared said


    worriedly. Today''s socializing went on for too long.


    "I''m not used to it since it''s been such a long time since I wore them." Nicole sighed. She had no idea


    how she was in the past, but while raising the kids in these past five years, she rarely wore high heels.N?velDrama.Org owns this.
