Chapter 2741


    “Mom, let’s have breakfast,” Nicole suggested to divert Gloria’s attention when she saw how conflicted


    Stanley was.


    “Grandma, we’re joining the parent-child event.” Nn and Lana added, eager to finish their breakfast


    and make a run for school.


    Understanding what Nicole’s intention was, Gloria looked at Stanley and agreed, “Okay, let’s have


    breakfast first.”


    After the family were all seated in the dining room, they had breakfast, though with a lingering sense of


    awkwardness in the air. Gloria was also feeling antsy, prompting Daniel to pat her on the hand tofort


    her while signaling to her to maintain her silence until their children had all left.


    All Gloria could do at that point was put up with it. She shot a nce at Stanley before lowering her head


    to eat what was left of her meal.


    After Nn and Lana had scraped their tes clean, they pulled Nicole and Jared along and walked


    them to the front door with great enthusiasm.


    “Grandpa, Grandma, we’re going to school!” they yelled.


    “Alright, have fun.” Daniel said.


    “Thank you.”


    Gloria smiled as she watched the kids leave, but her smile gradually faded as she turned to look at


    Stanley.


    “Mom, I have an urgent meeting today. I need to leave now.” Stanley hurriedly got up and left.


    He had decided not to exin the situation to them by himself. Instead, he would bring Cherry over to


    rify everything to his parents together.


    “Hey, stop!” Gloria shouted, but Stanley had already fled by then.


    “Let the kid handle it by himself,” Danielforted her when he saw how worried she was.


    “Can he handle it on his own?” Gloria sighed in defeat.” Look, it’s even on the news. And now he’s telling


    us that it’s not what we think it is?”


    To Gloria, the idea of a rtionship being taken lightly is downright ridiculous.

    “I believe Stanley is not that kind of person. Perhaps there’s a misunderstanding. After all, we’ve only


    heard it from the entertainment news, which is not known for credible reporting,” Daniel continued to


    persuade her.


    Besides, even if it were true, Stanley was well within the ideal age of marriage. It was just that he had not


    informed his parents in advance.


    “I’ll make sure to ask him when hees back tonight,” Gloria replied, adamant that this was not an


    issue she could allow to slide.


    At the end of the day, Stanley owed them a clear exnation, one way or another.


    Daniel shook his head and chuckled. “Okay, let’s just wait until theye back from work.”


    Meanwhile, Nicole and Jared were on their way to preschool with Nn and Lana.


    “Mommy, if Uncle Stanley is really getting married, why did he hide it from us?”


    Lana asked, unable to get over the confusion.


    Nicole gently patted Lana in the head and smiled, “He isn’t.


    If it’s true, Uncle Stanley will definitely tell us.”


    There was nothing shameful about getting married, so there was nothing to hide to begin with. For that


    reason alone, she believed that there must be something they did not know or had misunderstood


    somewhere along the line.


    Nicole did not want her kids to dwell on this matter, so she changed the subject and said, “Have you


    prepared for the parent-child event today? Your performances are all set, right?”


    “Of course!” Lana beamed. ’Daddy and Mommy, you must focus on our performanceter, okay?”


    “Don’t worry, we definitely will.” Nicole smiled.
