"He didn't come, but he prepared gifts for you," Nicole explained.
"Oh.” Nolan's gaze returned from the window to the box in his hands, his expression hesitant.
Nicole touched his head gently. 'You can choose to open it or not.”
It was clear that Nolan was still somewhat resistant, likely still upset about Lawrence's actions from
before.
"Let's open it and see," Jared's voice chimed in.
Nolan looked up at Jared, murmuring, "Dad, I..."
"It's okay. It's a birthday gift he sent you, and I think it's something you'll like, " Jared said softly.
After all, Lawrence knew Nolan and Lana well, so the gifts he chose were surely ones they'd enjoy.
Jared could sense Nolan's uncertainty and inner struggle; it's tough for anyone to accept being used by
someone they trusted, especially for a child.
But Nolan's emotions for Lawrence were genuine, as was the care Lawrence had shown him, which
probably made Nolan's inner turmoil even more complicated.
Nolan hesitated to open the gift box, sensing that it held something he had wished for a long time.
Nicole, noticing Nolan's hesitation, gently urged him, "Go on, open it."
After a moment's pause, Nolan nodded. "Alright."
Nolan opened the box at last, his expression a blend of emotions as he gazed at the gift inside.Watching Nolan, Lana decided to open her gift too.
Over the years, Lawrence had always sent them birthday presents they adored, and Lana was sure
novelbinthis time would be no different. However, the excitement she once felt was now tempered by a complex
mix of emotions.
"Mommy, thank Godpa for me tomorrow," Lana said softly after closing her gift box, looking up at
Nicole.
"I've already thanked him for you," Nicole replied with a relieved smile, noticing the maturity in her
children.
After unwrapping the rest of their gifts, Nolan and Lana found themselves with quite a collection.
"Are you happy with your presents?" Gloria and Daniel, standing nearby, asked with a smile as they
watched Nolan and Lana.
"Yes," Nolan and Lana replied. They could feel the love and consideration behind each gift, tailored to
their likes and interests.
"That's great to hear," Gloria said warmly. "I'll have someone take the gifts to your rooms. It's getting
late; you two should go to bed."
"Okay," Nolan and Lana agreed, trailing after Nicole and Jared as they headed upstairs.
After instructing the butler to move the gifts to Nolan and Lana's rooms, Gloria and Daniel also called it
a night.
In his room, surrounded by the gifts now occupying his space, Nolan hesitated briefly before deciding
to turn on his computer.Nicole, understanding Nolan's intentions, didn't interfere. Instead, she quietly helped him organize the
gifts, placing them in their proper places around the room.
Once the computer was up and running, Nolan composed a message to Lawrence, politely expressing
his gratitude.
To his surprise, Lawrence responded promptly: [Is the birthday party over?]
Feeling uncertainty, Nolan replied: [Yes, it's done.]
Lawrence followed up: [Getting ready for bed, then?]
Nolan typed back: [Yeah.]
Sensing Nolan's distant tone, Lawrence sent another message: [The gifts are a way for me to show my
love for you both. I hope you and Lana are staying healthy and happy.] 1
Nolan responded: [Thank you, we're doing okay.]
