Gloria, who was sitting in the living room, heard Nicole’s voice. Then, she stood up to welcome her daughter. “Nicole, you’re here?”
“Oh, Jared is here too?” An expression of shock appeared on Gloria’s face when she saw Nicole and Jared together.
“Mrs. Riddle, it has been a while. You’re looking much better from the last time I met you.” Jared greeted Gloria warmly.
“Really? I’ve been feeling better too. I guess it wasn’t just a feeling. Come on in.” Gloria led them into the living room.
“Where’s dad?” Nicole asked as she noticed that Daniel was missing as soon as she entered the living room.
“He’s in the study. I’ll text him.” Gloria flashed Nicole a grin.
“It’s fine. I’ll go and surprise him myself.” Nicole got up with a smile on her face and went upstairs.
“That little girl of ours is really close to her dad. He’d be delighted when he finds out that she’s back,” Gloria explained to Jared.
“Here, have some fruits, Jared.” Gloria served Jared the plate of fruits affectionately.
“Thank you.” Jared sat in the living room and began a casual conversation with Gloria.
Nicole walked up to the entrance of the study and knocked on the door, whereupon a voice sounded from the room in response. “Come in.”
Nicole pushed the door open and walked in. The moment Daniel lifted his head and looked toward the entrance, he was caught off guard to see Nicole there.
In surprise, he asked her, “When did you arrive? Why didn’t you tell me earlier?”
‘I just came. I’m here with Jared,” Nicole replied to Daniel.
“Jared’s here too?” Daniel was even happier when he heard that Jared had come with her.
“Yeah, he’s chatting with mom downstairs,” she said.
“Come, let’s head downstairs.” Daniel closed the book which he was holding, got up and went downstairs with Nicole.
Jared was chatting with Gloria when Daniel and Nicole approached them.
Seeing Daniel approaching, Jared stood up at once and greeted, “Mr. Riddle. It has been a while.”
“Indeed, it’s been a while, Jared.” Daniel stepped forward and shook Jared’s hand.
He was elated to have Jared visiting them.
“Go on, have a seat,” he said.
“Jared, it’s such a rare opportunity to have the both of you here for a visit. Why don’t you stay for dinner with US?” Daniel looked at Jared and Nicole with a grin.
Nicole remained silent and looked at Jared.
“Sure. I haven’t had home-cooked food in a long while too. I must take this opportunity to eat more.” Jared followed suit and glanced at Nicole, as if he was asking her, ‘Are you satisfied?’
Nicole smiled and looked back at Jared. The look in her eyes made it seemed as though she was replying to his question with a silent, ‘Yes.’
“That’s great!” Daniel replied enthusiastically.
“Jared, are you still very busy with work?” Daniel looked at Jared in concern.
“Yeah, it feels like there is a never-ending to-do list waiting to be completed every day.” Jared replied with a wry smile.
“Even though it’s good to be busy, remember to take care of your own health,” Daniel said.
“Will do,” Jared uttered.
“By the way, I’ve heard that you’re involved in Fiorella’s project too?” Daniel asked Jared.
