Chapter 1074 Returning to the Gould Family
The color of the gemstone was highly pure, and it sparkled brightly under the sunlight, shining beautifully. Even
though Nicole knew that this stone was priceless, she didn't return it and pursed her lips, accepting with a nod.
"Thank you, Grandpa."
When Benedict saw that she didn't show any dislike toward it, he chuckled heartily and his aged face was folded
with wrinkles. Then, he sighed. "I was wrong in the past, but now, my only wish is for you and Colton to be happy
together."
Nodding, she sincerely said, "Thank you, Grandpa."
With nothing more to say after giving her the present, Benedict left with the help of the walking stick. Initially,
Nicole wanted to help him back, but the stubborn old man turned her down. Hence, she saw him off before

Anna had been so busy these days with the wedding preparations that she was barely at home. The news that the
Gardners and the Wrenns were going to be relatives spread out in Lumore like a bushfire. One was the most
influential family in the country while the other owned one of the biggest companies in the world, and this marriage
of the century would inevitably make the two families even stronger. Three days before the wedding, Nicole had to
pack her stuff and move into the Gould Residence for a few days because of the agreement with Rita.
When Colton held her in his arms, reluctant to see her go, only then did she realize that this man had this side of
him. Giggling softly, she sighed and said, "It's not like I'm not coming back again. I'm just staying there for a couple
of days. Come and pick me up on our wedding day."
"Okay," he answered.
Colton was the one who drove her to the Gould Residence. Today, Rita looked exceptionally vibrant in a dark blue
long dress and impeccable hair. Besides Siobhan, Jackson and Gabriel were there as well. The whole time, Nicole
maintained a good mannerism on her face and greeted everyone politely, albeit sounding a little formal. A look of
disappointment flashed over Siobhan's eyes, but she didn't say anything about it.
Noticing that the atmosphere was a little awkward, Gabriel stepped forward and gently said, "You're getting married
to Colton in three days, Nicole. Just live here during this period. Dad, Mom, and I will be around, and you can come
to us directly if you need anything."
Nicole had always thought of Gabriel as an amicable person carrying the elegance of an upperclassman with a
touch of toughness he gained from military training. Smiling, she nodded in reply. "Okay. Thank you, Mr. Wrenn."
Gabriel's voice was gentle, and although hearing that she addressed him formally, he didn't insist that she
acknowledge him as her brother. "Let's eat first. Mom has specially cooked for us today and you should give it a
try."

Accepting his invitation, Nicole followed him into the dining room and saw that Evelyn was at the table, too.
However, she pulled a long face through the meal and looked rather unhappy with her lowered head without
uttering a single word.
They finished the meal in an awkward environment and Gabriel led Nicole upstairs. "You'll be staying in the same
room as before and the professionals will be here in the next couple of days for your wedding dress fitting. Also,
you can choose the makeup artist and hairstylist that you like," he said while helping her to unpack. Something
popped up in his mind, and he added, "Dad said that you'll be holding two wedding banquets with Colton and the
one in the country will be held first. The Wrenns will hold another wedding banquet abroad after some time. What
do you think?"
Looking away from him, she gently balled up her fists at her sides. After a few seconds, she raised her head. "I think
we can forget it. I'm here today because of Old Mrs. Gould, but I have nothing to do with the Wrenn Family."
Gabriel was quiet, aware that Nicole was acting this way because of what Evelyn did the last time. A helpless smile
appeared on his face. "It was Evelyn's fault for what happened before, and Mom was on her side biasedly."
