Chapter 1365 Companion
Feeling surprised, Evan turned toward Nicole. âYou used to be so adamant about people being free to find love at their own pace. Why are you suddenly so keen on introducing other people to them?â
âEven if they want to find love at their own pace, there should still be a time limit. As their mother, I canât just sit back and watch them march into their thirties or forties all alone.â
She paused for a while and continued, âBesides, I only want to introduce them to some new friends and broaden their choice. Iâm not forcing them to be in a relationship and trying to barge into their lives; Iâm just concerned.â
After some thought, Evan agreed with what Nicole had just said. Sheâs right. Moreover, Kyle and Maya are grownups now, and they should have someone that they want to spend their lives with.
âI understand. Iâll keep an eye out,â he responded.
Nicole nodded. âIâll keep an eye out too. If thereâs a fine young man, letâs introduce him to Maya. And if thereâs a fine young woman, then weâll introduce her to Kyle. We might be able to help them find someone that would want to spend their lives with our kids.â
Looking at how confident she was, Evan simply grinned. âI would rather have them find that special someone themselves like how we found each other. Although something happened in between, we still fought through the storm to be together finally and found our own happiness in the end. You donât have to worry about what will happen to them in the future, Nicole. These experiences will mold them to be better people and teach them to learn more about their feelings or what they really want.â
After listening to what Evan had said, Nicole pursed her lips. âThe problem is not about me not wanting them to experience things at their own pace, Mr. Evan. Other than Nina, they have no experience with love at all. Donât you think itâs too long of a time? Iâm getting anxious.â
The moment Ninaâs name was brought up, Evanâs expression turned grim. âI heard that thereâs a new guy in the office named Stephen, and he seems to be quite close with Nina.â
Stephen?
Nicole furrowed her brows. âNina had just been through a nasty breakup. Could it really be possible for her to move on to someone else that fast? We also donât know what kind of person Stephen is. It will be better for us to investigate him even further. We canât let her get hurt ever again.â
âDonât worry. I heard Nina had already ordered someone to investigate him. Iâll send out someone else to find some more details about him.â
Nicole nodded as she burned Stephenâs name deep in her memory. She decided to visit the office tomorrow so she could see what kind of person Stephen was.
Knock knock.
There was a knock on the door, and a maid came to inform them their dinner was ready.
Everyone was already at the table. While they were having their dinner, Juan was hesitant about telling his parents about Sally coming over the next day. However, since he had already agreed to her request, he had no other choice but to tell them.
âMommy, Daddy, I have something to tell you both.â
âWhat is it?â Nicole asked. Evan also turned to look at him.
After pondering for a moment, he continued, âDo you remember that Grandma had introduced someone to me before, Mommy? Weâve been enjoying each otherâs company a lot, so I have decided to bring her back to meet with you all. Will you both be free tomorrow?â
Hearing this, Nicole was delighted to know that her son would bring his girlfriend back tomorrow for a visit.
âOf course we will be free tomorrow,â she exclaimed.
She never would have thought Juan would really get along with the person Sophia had introduced him to.
Since she had such a keen eye for this, should I ask her to introduce some people to the other children too?
âI already have an appointment with an important client tomorrow. I donât think I canâ¦.â
As Evan hesitated, Nicole quickly demanded, âWhy donât you change your schedule and move it to the evening? Juan is bringing over his girlfriend, so this is important. It would be inappropriate for you to not be around as it would seem like we donât care about her.â
After a quick consideration, Evan agreed with what Nicole said. While he was thinking of what time he should reschedule for the clientâs appointment, Juan suddenly said, âYou donât have to change the time of your appointment, Daddy. Sheâs just coming over to have a meal with us. Itâs enough with only Mommy around.â
âThis is the first time you have ever brought a girlfriend home, Juan. You donât have to worry. I will be there too. I want to see what my sister-in-law looks like,â Maya said.
