Chapter 2660
"Well that was...?" Martin turned to Nicole after noticing the weird atmosphere between Cherry and Stanley. He
looked eager for gossip.
Nicole had no choice but to disappoint him. "Cherry Jean."
Martin pressed his lips together and responded with a wry smile, "Alright then."
Nicole did not want to dwell on the topic, so she remained silent.
"Nicole, it's getting late. You should head home. I'll be fine by myself." Tia bit her lip. She hesitated before saying,"
Nicole, could you take Stanley with you?"
Tia did not want Cherry to get the wrong idea, but she could not convince Stanley to leave. So she had to rely on

"I think it's best to let Stanley decide that for himself." Nicole shrugged. She did not want to make decisions on
Stanley's behalf and have him blame her for it later.
The situation today unraveled a mystery in her heart, and it was up to fate to decide what would happen in their
future.
Tia looked surprised at Nicole, not expecting Nicole to reject her suggestion.
"Okay then, we'll take our leave. You should rest properly." With that reminder, Nicole and Jared ushered their
children.
"Bye-bye, Tia!"
"Bye, kids."
Tia watched as Nicole and Jared left with the kids.
Her brain still could not grasp the situation. 'So Stanley is staying back tonight to take care of me? Won't Cherry
misunderstand the situation?'
"I'll accompany you until Stanley comes back," Martin said after seeing Tia alone.
"Thanks, but I'm fine on my own," Tia said, sounding frustrated. She knew everyone was concerned about her, but
her situation was not serious. She felt that she could manage on her own. Not to mention that Stanley had been
here all day and even stayed the night. If Cherry misunderstood this, Tia could be guilty of ruining Stanley's
potential marriage.
"Are you worried about Stanley?" Martin asked softly, looking at Tia's troubled expression.
"Yeah," Tia replied before catching herself. Blushing slightly, she clarified, "I mean, I'm just worried about how I can
clear things up if Cherry misunderstands Stanley because of this."

"So is Cherry Stanley's girlfriend?" Martin asked, tilting his head and seizing Tia's reaction.
"She isn’t," Stanley's voice sounded, holding a hint of anger.
"You're back," Martin said, standing up after hearing Stanley. "Then my job here is done. I'll leave Tia to you now.
See ya."
"Take care." Then he approached Tia's bedside. He took a fruit knife to slice an apple for her. He had no intention of
escorting Martin out.
Embarrassed, Tia looked at Martin and said, "It's getting late. I'm sure you haven't had your dinner. You should go
back."
"I'll come to visit you tomorrow," Martin promised. He looked at Stanley meaningfully before leaving.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly dropped, and Martin smirked at the change.
The atmosphere was awkward, with only Stanley and Tia left in the room.
"Eat some apples." Stanley regained his composure and handed the apple to Tia.
