Chapter 2568 In short, the Riddle family would provide them with food and shelter, but nothing more.
Hearing that, Dillion and Karen expressed their gratitude at once, promising, "Thank you, Dad.
We will stay at home and take care of you." "Say what you mean and mean what you say.
If you can't do that, don't ever come back," Mr. Riddle Sr. warned sternly.
"Dad, rest assured, we won't break our promise," Dillion firmly assured.
They were genuinely afraid and did not want to return to a life of homelessness and scavenging for food.
Mr. Riddle Sr. then turned to the butler and said, 'Have someone take them downstairs to freshen up and prepare a room for them." "Yes," the butler replied.
"Thank you, Dad." Dillion and Karen said, after which they followed the butler downstairs.
"Nicole, don't you have anything to say?" Mr. Riddle Sr. hesitated for a moment before asking.
With a gentle smile, Nicole replied, "They have suffered enough, and the past is the past.
Besides, they didn't commit the crimes of which they were accused.
For Preston's sake, it's reasonable to give them a chance." Mr. Riddle Sr. sighed.
What they did, even though they didn't tamper with the medicine, is unforgivable.
But seeing them in such a pitiful state..." He could not help but sympathize with them.
If they were truly repentant and well-behaved, he could accommodate them, but he would only provide for their basic needs.
He would not be responsible for anything beyond that.
If they behaved, they would not have to worry about food and shelter anymore.
If not, this would be their last chance, and there would be no forgiveness if they made the same mistakes in the future.
"Grandpa, it's good to have them here to keep you company.
After all, staying here all by yourself can get lonely," Nicole comforted.
That was one of the reasons she had agreed to let them stay too.
It would be ideal if they could look after Mr. Riddle Sr. After all, Nicole and her family did not have much time to visit him.
"Rest assured, Dad, we will stay here and take care of you.
We won't go anywhere else," Dillon and Karen said as they came in after taking a shower and changing into clean sets of clothes.
They looked much cleaner now, and the arrogant and hostile attitude they once carried themselves with had seemingly disappeared, replaced by a more amiable demeanor.
"That's good to hear, Uncle Dillion, Aunt Karen.
I believe Preston will be pleased," Nicole said with a meaningful smile.
Dillon's smile stiffened for a moment, but he quickly replied, " Yes, we hope he can forgive us." From the looks of it now, their son was the only one they could rely on in the future.
“Grandfather, we'll take our leave now," Nicole said, sensing that Dillion knew what she was trying to say.
Mr. Riddle Sr. shot a glance at Dillon and Karen before he said, " Very well, goodbye." Soon after, Nicole and Jared got into their car and left the family manor.
Nicole leaned back against her seat and breathed a sigh of relief.
She believed that Dillion understood what she had said.
If he still cared about his son, he would definitely behave himself.
After all, they had endured so much hardship, and if they could not learn to behave now, there would be no hope for them anymore.
