"Back already?" Daniel and Gloria beamed with affection at their grandchildren.
Nicole and Jared took their seats, explaining, "We had some free time today, so we decided to pick
them up.”
"It's good to see you both have the energy to do that. It seems like Riddle Corporation must be doing
alright now," Daniel remarked, relieved.
The past few days had been hectic for both Nicole and Jared, but now that they had some time to
relax, it seemed like their problems had been resolved.
"Yes, now we're just waiting for the penalty notice for NandoCorp," Nicole said calmly, with a smile.
Gloria responded with a hint of resignation, "Let the penalty come if it must, as long as the issue is
resolved."
"Mom, actually, the penalty is a good thing," Nicole reassured her with a smile.
"I might not be involved in the company matters, and I really don't understand, but how can a penalty
be a good thing?" Gloria asked, frowning slightly in confusion.
"Let's not talk about work now. You don't understand these things, and you won’t believe the children
when they say it's alright," Daniel intervened, suggesting they drop the subject now that work was over
to give everyone a break.
"You were the one who asked just now," Gloria couldn't help but give Daniel a playful look.
"Alright, my fault. Let's all not ask anymore," Daniel quickly conceded.Laughter filled the living room, soon followed by a curious voice, "What's going on? Why the good
mood?"
They turned to see Stanley entering.
"Nothing much, just chatting," Daniel greeted Stanley. "Now that you're here, let's have dinner."
"Oh, okay," Stanley replied, not pressing further.
With the recent tension over Riddle Corporation's affairs affecting the household atmosphere, the
novelbinlighter mood now was a welcome change.
Once they arrived at the dining hall, dinner was quickly served.
"Nicole, Nolan and Lana's birthdays are coming up, right? Your dad and I were thinking, how about we
throw a cozy birthday party at home? What do you think?" Gloria asked Nicole.
Considering the approaching date, if they were to hold a party, decisions and preparations needed to
start promptly.
"Well... I'll ask Nolan and Lana what they think," Nicole hesitated for a moment. "They mentioned
wanting to go to the amusement park a few days ago, and I thought of taking them there."
"We can have the party in the evening, just a small celebration with the family. During the day, if you
want to take them to the amusement park, that will fulfill their wish," Gloria added.
"That sounds good," Jared agreed.
"Then it's settled," Daniel chimed in.
With Jared’s agreement, Nicole wouldn't object."Alright, let's go with what Mom and Dad suggest," Nicole concurred.
Stanley paused for a moment before saying, "In that case, I need to think about what kind of birthday
gifts to prepare for Nolan and Lana."
After enjoying a dinner filled with laughter and conversation, Gloria spoke up, "We'll handle the party
preparations."
"Mom, you can also ask Tia to help you," Stanley reminded Gloria.
"Sure, I'll call her," Gloria happily agreed.
With everyone else busy, it seemed Tia was the only one available to help, and given her close
relationship with Nolan and Lana, she understood the children's preferences well.
Nicole nodded in agreement. "On their birthday, we'll take Nolan and Lana to the amusement park, and
we'll return in the afternoon so we won't miss the evening party."
Good, but make sure the kids have a fun time," Gloria advised.
