Chapter 341
Nicole had no doubt that Daniel would stand by her side. She however did not expect Mr. Riddle Sr., who had not favored her all this while, too was so indifferent to Lyana’s departure.
From their attitude, Nicole was sure that Lyana came here this time for her.
She pondered for a moment, trying to think in what way she had offended Lyana. She quickly reminded of the time when the Rogers family had sent men over to ‘pick’ her up and had a rough idea what was going on.
She looked at Daniel and did not mention the matter. Instead, she spoke plainly about Mr. Riddle Sr.’s condition. “Grandpa is recovering well, but he must not exert himself.”
When Daniel heard that, he gently heaved a sigh of relief. His father’s health was far more important than that young lady from the Rogers family.
Nicole’s words too were another shot of encouragement for him.
Mr. Riddle Sr. too appeared very calm. He clearly knew his own condition and how he was faring.
Thus, there was a look of genuine gratitude towards Nicole in his eyes.

This child was erratic, not unlike a whirlwind, yet she had always been back and forth for him, so how could Mr. Riddle Sr. not see it?
Thinking of how loathsome the words Lyana had spat upon Nicole, a look of disgust appeared in Mr. Riddle Sr.’s eyes.
At this moment, Dillon rushed in first as he went straight after Nicole. He almost wanted to grab her by the collar as his voice got a little distorted.
“What’s the matter with you? You’ve offended the young lady of the Rogers family. If you want to die, don’t drag us along with you!” ‘She had the support of Jared Johnston, but what about them?’
‘All of them will suffer because of this!’
He was just this close to get on with Mr. Rogers Sr. and that was totally ruined because of Nicole!
Behind him, Damien and Dexter walked as well as the former gave Nicole a very complicated look.
“Nicole, tell Uncle Damien honestly. What… is your relationship with Jared now?”
Dexter too looked at Nicole with an inquisitive look in his eyes.
Nicole looked on impassively at the few of them. She, however, did not answer the question.
It was Daniel’s interest which got piqued instead. “Nicole, is Mr. Jared waiting for you outside?
Looking at Daniel’s perplexed expression, Nicole said somewhat helplessly to him, “Yes. I was having coffee with him, and he sent me back.”
When they heard this answer, the Riddle brothers could not believe it, not even Dillon.

She went out for a coffee with Jared?’
Daniel pondered for bit and said, “Nicole… Be honest, do you no longer wish to cancel the marriage arrangement?”
As he said that, Mr. Riddle Sr. could not help but to be taken aback.
“Canceling the marriage arrangement? What are you on about?” The marriage between Nicole and the Johnston family was painstakingly arranged by Mr. Riddle Sr., so who was canceling it again?
Seeing that he could no longer hide it, Daniel said, “Dad, Mr. Jared had come to look for Nicole at my home, and between the lines he hinted at hoping that Nicole would pro-actively bring up the cancellation of marriage. I had asked Nicole for her opinion, and she agreed to it.” Not wanting his daughter to be blamed by the old man, Daniel put all of the responsibility on Jared.
However, when he spoke to the latter the other day, he could tell that Jared wanted to cancel the arrangement but felt it was better if it was Nicole to bring it up.
After so many days, he had never come to the Riddle family manor again to take Nicole to tell Mr. Riddle Sr. the matter.
He originally thought that Mr. Riddle Sr. was still unwell, but now it looked like…
Both Nicole and Jared have other plans now.
“Nonsense! Although that marriage was arranged in haste back then, Mr. Johnston Sr. is a man of his word. How can you youngsters do as you please? I won’t agree to any cancellation!”
