Chapter 2378


    It was extremely merry while the entire family was gathered together.


    “Nicole, what happened this time was a close call. Don’t take such risks anymore. There are multiple


    ways to deal with people like them, so why put yourself in danger? It’s not worth it, especially for


    someone like Snow,” June said, still feeling afraid on the behalf of Nicole.


    In response, Nicole chuckled. “Don’t worry. Everything has been nned. We’re just luring them out


    now.”


    “But what if something unexpected happens?” June shook her head in disagreement.


    “I know you’re concerned about me, but trust me, we’ve made our arrangements, so you really don’t


    need to worry. And look, I’m fine now, am I not?” she argued.


    June wanted to persuade Nicole further, but before she could, Samuel stopped her. “Don’t worry, Mr.


    Johnston is with us. He won’t let anything happen to Nicole.”


    He believed that since it was a nned operation, it must have been approved by Jared, which


    definitely meant that the n was well thought out.


    June looked at Jared and hesitated for a moment, but ultimately, she forewent the argument and kept


    mum instead.


    And while everyone present were expressing their concerns about Nicole’s situation, Tia came home


    with Nn and Lana.


    “Mommy!” The kids rushed toward Nicole when they saw her, wanting to give her a big hug.


    “Hey!” Just as they were about to get close to Nicole, a pair of big hands stopped them from getting too


    close.


    Nn turned to Jared and protested, “Why are you stopping us?”


    They were really worried when they heard that Nicole was injured, but before they could pay her a visit,


    Nicole had disallowed them from going to the hospital. And now that she was back, Jared added salt to


    the wound by preventing them from hugging her.


    He is too much!’ Nn fumed.


    “Mommy is injured. Don’t bump into her wound,” Jared reminded Nn before letting them go.


    Hearing that, Nn stopped in his tracks and became obedient at once.


    They then approached Nicole slowly, and once they were in close proximity to her, Nn asked in a


    soft voice,” Mommy, does it still hurt?”


    Nicole smiled andforted him, saying, “It doesn’t hurt anymore.”


    “Mommy, did they catch the bad guys?” Lana tilted her little head as she asked.

    Nicole nodded. “Yes, they’ve been caught. The police officers have taken them away.”


    Nn and Lana instantly felt relieved when they heard that the people who had injured their mother


    had been caught.” That’s good. Evil people should be caught.”


    Nicole lovingly ruffled their heads, her eyes filled with tenderness.


    “Miss Nicole? I’ll be heading back if there’s nothing else,” Tia announced.


    She was relieved to see that Nicole was fine, so she proceeded to head back just so that she could


    tend to Mrs. Wace Sr.


    Before she could, Nicole stopped her and said, “Bring Grandma over. Let’s all have dinner together and


    enjoy ourselves tonight.”


    “Sure, I’ll be going now,” Tia agreed as she thought that Nicole missed Mrs. Wace Sr.


    “Well then, let’s all wait in the dining room,” Gloria called.


    Soon after, the entire family sat down in the dining room, chatting and eating happily.


    Mrs. Wace Sr. was seated next to Gloria, and the two of them chatted with smiles on their faces as


    they watched the children and their antics.


    “I am content, knowing that they’re doing well.” Mrs. Wace


    Sr. looked at them affectionately, her sweeping gaze finally stopping on Nicole.


    ‘This girl has gone through too many hardships, and it’s finally over. I’m d!’ she thought.


    “I’ll be truly relieved when every single one of them gets married.” Gloria nodded in agreement.


    This was her biggest wish now. She wanted to see her children get married, start their own families,


    and find the happiness they deserved.


    “Well, they’re already preparing for their weddings. Soon your wish wille true,” Mrs. Wace Sr.


    stated with a radiant smile.


    While Nicole was missing, the Riddle family had been taking care of Mrs. Wace Sr., who really liked


    Nicole’s older brothers. Now that she could see that they were all starting their own families, she


    sincerely felt happy for them.
