Chapter 2958


    After a moment of hesitation, Stanley said, “Shouldn’t we tell Mom and Dad? If this keeps up, they’re


    going to find out eventually.”


    “Let’s try to keep it from them as long as we can,” Nicole sighed.


    Nicole was determined to control the situation as much as possible, hoping to avoid causing


    unnecessary rm to the family.


    Stanley nced at Nicole and whispered, “If there’s anything we need to do, just let us know.”


    “Okay,” Nicole replied with a smile, nodding in agreement.


    She knew that ‘us’ included not only Stanley and Tia but also other family members. If needed, Daniel,


    Gloria, Benjamin, and her uncles were all ready to help.


    “I’m going to the backyard,” Stanley said, nodding before he turned and left.


    “There he goes to see Tia again,” Gloria chuckled, watching Stanley leave.


    “They’re not in a hurry to marry, but maybe it’s better if they do it sooner.”


    Nicole returned to the couch and smiled, “Maybe they’re enjoying things as they are now.”

    “Let them be. Besides, even if they want to get married, they probably won’t be ready until next year,”


    Daniel reassured Gloria.


    “That’s fine. We can’t rush the wedding and mustn’t shortchange Tia,” Gloria mused.


    “Let’s go, it’s gettingte. Time to rest,” Daniel stood up.


    “Yes, it’s been a tiring day. We chatted for a long time with the kids around this afternoon,” Nicole


    noted.


    After her parents went upstairs, Nicole turned to Jared and suggested, “Let’s go up too.”


    Taking her hand, Jared replied, “Let’s check on Nn and Lana.”


    The two kids had run upstairs after dinner, and Jared and Nicole wondered what they were up to.


    After heading upstairs, Nicole and Jared went to Nn’s room.


    They saw Nn engrossed in hisputer, with Lana watching curiously beside him. Nicole was


    slightly puzzled.


    Upon closer inspection, they realized Nn was on a mission again, and Lana, unusually curious, was


    following along.


    “Do you understand what you’re seeing?” Jared asked Lana, ruffling her hair.


    Lana shook her head. “I don’t, but Nn will exin it to me.”


    Indeed, she didn’t understand, but with Nn exining, she could grasp some of it.


    “Do you want to learn?” Jared probed.


    Lana shook her head again. “No, I don’t think I have that kind of talent. But I feel it’s okay to learn a


    little, so I watch with Nn.”


    Jared picked up Lana and said, “You don’t have to force yourself.”


    If Lana wasn’t interested, she didn’t need to delve into it. She could always get help when needed, and


    she might not even need to know about these things in the future.


    “But I want to help,” Lana said, wrapping her arms around Jared. “If it weren’t for Nn today, we


    wouldn’t have had anywhere to hide, and something bad might have happened.”


    She felt she was only being protected by Nn and wished she could help too.


    Jared smiled and reassured her, “You already did help.”


    Lana had managed to stay calm and follow Nn’s lead without panicking or getting scared during the


    danger. That was already beyond their expectation.


    “Really?” Lana asked, looking up in surprise.


    She wondered if she had really been helpful without doing much.


    “Yes,” Jared assured her, pinching her nose. “Knowing to follow Nn and staying calm in the face of


    danger are ways of helping. You and Nn both did well and were very brave.”


    Hearing this, Lana nodded vigorously. “I understand. I’ll be even braver in the future.”


    “Good,” Jared said, carrying Lana to y elsewhere.
