My Wife Act Differently Behind Me
Chapter 2839

Chapter 2839

Nicole could not help but feel that something was off with Stanley today. She was wondering if he had made any progress with Tia, who showed up as the thought crossed her mind. Noticing footfalls in the living room, everyone stopped and looked back to see Tia approaching them.

"Have you eaten your breakfast?"

"Yes, thanks for asking. I'm here to pick the kids up," Tia replied.

"You're here early today, so I figured you might have skipped breakfast," Gloria said. "They're still eating, so you'll have to wait for a while longer. Come over and have a seat, please." "Oh, alright," Tia responded, not knowing where to put herself.

Her relationship with Stanley had indeed changed overnight. Right now, she was plagued by feelings of uncertainty about how to best interact with the Riddle family moving forward, as neither she nor Stanley had informed others about the most recent development in their relationship.

"Stanley, it's been a while since you promised to tell me about your girlfriend," Gloria complained.

She was irked by the fact that Stanley had not kept his promise. To this day, Gloria had still not seen his so-called ' girlfriend'.

"Mom, I do have a girlfriend. Please just give me one more week. I'll surely bring her to you," Stanley pleaded.

"What are you even up to, getting all mysterious? Don't beat around the bush!" Gloria warned.

"I won't, there's no point in doing that. You'll know when I bring her home," Stanley promised.

"Okay then. I'll grant you another week. But mark my words. You'll know the consequences of lying to me, young man," Gloria warned before she piped down and stopped pursuing any further. Stanley eased up and glanced over at Tia's direction. He figured one more week was all he needed.

"We're done," Nolan and Lana announced, whereupon they exited the dining room and approached Tia.

After slinging their bags on their backs, the kids grabbed Tia's hand. "Let's go, Tia."

"Oh, yeah. Come on then," Tia said, leaving with the kids.

"I'm done as well," Stanley said, and hurried out of the dining hall.

"Hey, you didn't even eat much," Gloria shouted at Stanley, but he was long gone by then.

Nicole could only smile at the thought of Stanley running off to catch up with Tia.

"We're done too," Nicole informed upon noticing Jared was done eating his breakfast.

"Oh, you're moving as well?" Daniel asked.

"Yep, we're heading off to work," Nicole said and left.

The house instantly fell silent, causing Gloria to let out a sigh, "Just like that, they're all gone."

Daniel, however, began chuckling at how out-of-place her sadness was. "Aren't you going somewhere later?"

Gloria would be making her way to her brother's house later to help him out with something. Even if the kids were at home today, Gloria would not be.

"I'm just being sentimental. The kids will leave one day when they're all grown up," Gloria replied, shaking her head.

"If so, why don't you stop rushing Stanley into marriage?" Daniel teased.

Gloria was repulsed by the idea, and that was when she argued, "I didn't mean it like that. The kids will all eventually have their own families. We won't be with them forever." "Hahaha," Daniel laughed. "You just tend to overthink when it comes to the kids."

"Who will take care of my children if I don't?" Gloria defended.

"Yeah, I get it." Daniel relented. 'Anyway, you better eat up. I'll send you to your brother's when you are done."

Remembering her schedule, Gloria continued her meal with Daniel right beside her.

Meanwhile, Nicole and Jared had already left home and were on the way to their workplaces.

All of a sudden, Nicole heard her phone ringing, and when she saw that Lulu was the one calling her, she answered," Hey, what's up?"
