Chapter 2863


    “I understand,” Nicole sighed. “I know this isn’t that big of a deal, but I just can’t stop myself from


    worrying.”


    “Mommy, what’s wrong?” Nn asked, frowning.


    He was standing there, wondering why Nicole was so anxious and worried about Jared.


    Snapping out of it, Nicole turned to Nn and ruffled his hair. “There’s a project in your father’spany


    that’s being held back by some difficulties, and we’re trying to find a way out of it. My point is: now’s not


    the best time for your dad to make an appearance in public.”

    “Is it because someone disguised himself as Dad and went abroad?” Nn cut to the chase.


    Shocked by how astute Nn’s observation was, she asked, “How did you know that?”


    “It’s all over the news,” Nn replied confidently.


    “I can’t believe you watched the news,” Nicole blurted, thinking that the kids only watched cartoons on


    television.


    Confident in his father’s decision, Nn held Nicole’s hand and said, “Come on, Mommy. Nothing will


    happen since Dad has gotten it all covered.”


    Nn believed that Jared would be capable of handling everything thrown his way, and with that, Nicole


    pinched his nose and chuckled. “Alright then.”


    Nicole herself did trust in Jared and his capabilities, but her concern for him still got her worried.


    After entering the venue, they saw that everyone was already present, waiting for the wedding ceremony


    to begin.


    “Nicole, what’s going on with Jared?” Lulu whispered to Nicole the moment she saw Jared.


    Nicole proceeded to pat Lulu’s hands in reassurance. “Don’t worry, we’ve got everything covered.”


    “Phew, that’s good,” Lulu said, easing up.


    June, having overheard the conversation, tapped Lulu on the shoulder. “Come on, are you questioning


    what Jared is capable of?”


    Bewildered, Lulu turned to June, her eyes wide. “How did you know what I was thinking?”


    Lulu thought Nicole had only told her about the situation, so she was surprised to know that June had


    learned about it too.


    Annoyed, June rolled her eyes. “I guessed it the moment I saw Mr. Johnston.


    I’m sure everyone present knows what’s up too. If they don’t want to get on his bad side, they’ll know


    what to do.”


    Everyone who was once uncertain of what to make of the situation all would get the picture when Jared


    showed up.


    Lulu yfully stuck her tongue out, knowing what June said made sense.


    Then, June craned her head to look at the entrance where more guests were approaching and asked


    Nicole, “Why isn’t Tia here?”


    “Grandma’s sick,” Nicole exined.


    At that instant, June understood that Tia had stayed home to take care of Mrs.


    Wace Sr.


    As the few were chatting, Er’s voice suddenly red out, catching their attention.


    “I’m notte, am I?” Er asked, looking worn and disheveled after a long journey.


    June then sized Er up and said, “Well, you’re putting on quite a show.”


    “My mom is very sensitive to details. She’ll discover the truth if I take one wrong step.” Er exined in


    a hushed whisper.


    “I’ll greet them first. Let’s dine at the same tableter,” he said, and hurried off.


    As Er dashed off into the crowd, June chuckled. “By the looks of it, his arm seems fine.”


    “Patricia did say that his recovery is almostplete. Well, his arm would have recovered by now if he


    hadn’t missed his check-ups and taken good care of himself,” Nicole sighed, worried about Er who had


    been neglecting his own well-being.


    Lowering her voice again, June posited, “I say, Er’s doing it on purpose.”


    June had called Er’s trick, aware that he had pulled all of that nonsense because Patricia was worried


    about his injury.


    Lulu, who begged to disagree,ughed and said, “Well, that’s something you’re wrong about. Er


    wouldn’t have the guts to do that, even if he wanted to.”
